Michael Phelps: What a dope!

Posted By on Tue, Feb 3, 2009 at 3:00 PM

Michael Phelps apologizes for smoking pot after photos of the swimmer surfaced in a British newspaper. I guess if he loses his current sponsors, he could always ask Visine.

Love and taxes

Maybe if President Obama had appointed Dana as official pre-nomination tax return preparer, two of his nominees would not have bowed out of their cabinet appointments. I mean, WWBCD*?

* What would Bill Clinton Do?

Cinematic heartburn: Two new rom-coms fail to deliver

Posted By on Tue, Feb 3, 2009 at 2:39 PM

By Matt Brunson

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's no wonder that a couple of studios have opted to release what they believe will be perfect comfort cinema for making couples cuddle up together in their auditorium seats. Yet given the sheer dreariness of the products at hand, they would have fared just as well luring lovebirds with, say, the latest installment in the Saw series. A romantic comedy (New in Town) and a romantic comedy-drama (He's Just Not That Into You) would seem like perfect V-Day fare to entice openhearted women and their agreeable mates, but to quote my girlfriend after she watched these duds alongside me, "These movies are where feminism goes to die." Read the rest of this review here.

Watch the trailer for He's Just Not That Into You here:

Watch the usually cool, calm and collected Ashton Kutcher throw a hissy fit at 7:30 a.m.

And then the apology... for being so "vulnerable at 7 a.m."

Scooby Doo ... I hate you!

Posted By on Mon, Feb 2, 2009 at 11:25 AM

As a kid, I really hated Scooby Doo.

I guess the writers of this animated cartoon didn't think that anyone would notice that every episode had the exact same plot ... but I did. A monster appears, Scooby and his friends try to get to the bottom of the mystery and then the monster gets caught — except it's really just a normal guy dressed as a monster. Yawn.

My disdain for the cartoon aside, the Queen City Theatre Company's live parody of the show — titled Spooky Dog and the Teen-age Gang Mysteries — should be entertaining when it hits the stage this Thursday. And to get you in the mood for this week's production, I'm posting a classic Scooby clip:
