Leave it to the Scottish. A Scotland Brewery has just created the world's strongest beer. Named ‘Armageddon’, the beer is 65 percent alcohol. Hey, whatever it takes to get you drunk enough to want to eat Haggis right?! A brewery spokesperson states “smelling it is probably enough to put you over the limit!”. And my guess, it’ll light your breath on fire too!…That's a fantastic Halloween trick by the way.
Yes, Halloween is on Wednesday, but the scariest most haunting news is already out. Confirmed, Avril Lavigne has recorded a cover of a Nickelback song. BARF!…Seriously, Shit covering shit into a new version of shit, well, it’s still shit!*. Forget the Scottish Beer, this is the real sign of Armageddon. The tune in question is “How You Remind Me”. How badly I never want to hear this I can’t put into words.
Continuing with musical idiocy. If Courtney Love’s perpetual stupidity doesn’t do it, this will certainly get Kurt Cobain rolling in his grave. CBS is developing a sitcom titled “Smells like Teen Spirit”. OK, 2 problems with this: A. Cobain would probably see this as a money grab and hate the idea. B. That song came out 21 years ago. Doesn’t anyone in show biz have an original idea these days? The show is about an 18 year entrepreneur working out of his parents garage instead going to Harvard. Oh yeah, just what that song is all about…come on! Time to go back to the drawing board CBS.
Finally it’s a been a kind of ‘who cares’ week in technology. Apple unveiled the iPad Mini on Tuesday. Isn’t that just an iPhone?…Not to be outdone Windows 8 launched on Thursday. The latest software from Microsoft, I hear big highlights include newer, faster ways to crash.

--Oh P.S. *-I guess the video below really spoke to me, ha!

These Are The Things I Think About -- Oct15th-21st
The Walking Dead is on tonight! If you caught the season premiere last weekend, you definitely weren’t the only one. Numbers are in, nearly 11 million people tuned in making it the most-watched cable drama broadcast ever! And, I’ll guess about 10.5 million of the viewers already find Lori annoying again this season…Why can’t the Walkers get her dammit!
Now to a man who may infact be dead inside, Lance Armstrong. Following recent near undisputed evidence he doped during his bicycle racing career, and, inturn, has been lying through his teeth to everyone about it; Lance stepped down as chairman of his Livestrong cancer-fighting charity this week. Nike has also severed all ties with him…Is there anyway this guy can still considered be a role model? I say no.
Continuing in Sports, US swimmer Michael Phelps has been named 'The Fittest Man of All Time' by Men’s Health Magazine. Bruce Lee was second, then Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jack Lalane. Eating a 12,000 (yes, 12-thousand!, you read that right) calorie a day sugar based diet, you gotta think Michael Phelps is probably also the most likely man of all time to get diabetes too!
Quick hit from entertainment. Honey Boo Boo's mom, says her family is like the ‘Lohans’. Not sure which side should be more insulted following that statement. Perhaps it is the rest of us who ought to be. Both those groups of idiots should in no way be household names.
--By the way Lindsay Lohan has agreed to be interviewed by Barbara Walters. I say Barbara opens with this question: What the hell is wrong with you?!... Seriously, as a fellow redhead I think Lindsay should have her ginger card revoked….Boo to you Ms. Lohan, for shame, grow up.
New stats show having an NFL team with a winning record is a significant indicator of increased housing sales and population growth among US cities. Better the record, the better off both economically & socially, your city will be…This of course means, forget the auto industy, Detroit needs to blame the Lions!
And finally a kid in New York City had to be rushed to hospital after swallowing a rubber ducky. He’s ok, but now he squeaks when you poke his belly…Ha!
-Gilmore
--Oh P.S. Don Cherry is in the news.
Some European players with contracts in the KHL have stated they would stay in Europe this season, even if the NHL lockout ends. In response, this was said, 'let them stay there. It will make more room for the players from Quebec and North America. As a supporter and former player I do not care for players who want to stay in Europe. Let them.”. This said by former NHLer Guy Lafleur. It was Don Cherry, in regards to Guy's statement, tweeted this: "Now imagine if I said that? Whoah."…He’s right, isn’t he?!, people would be roasting Don over the coals if he said that, Guy…No big deal.
But here’s where I really get intrigued. Offering advice to NHL players Cherry says “Quit tweeting and talking to the media about how bad Bettman and the owners are..” he adds “Quit ticking them off, why make them more determined." And, once again, he’s right!
…Do you realize what is happening?! Don Cherry, right now, is the voice of reason in the NHL!…There’s some Apocalyptic Food for Thought if there ever was. Yep, this lockout needs to end now. Anyone else see fire in the sky this morning?

These Are The Things I Think About -- Oct9th-14th
Unless you missed it, Skydiver Felix Baumgartner set a record today. He successfully completed the highest & fastest free fall in history. The original plan was to jump on Tuesday, but he had to reschedule due to “wind conditions”. A trip to Taco Bell gone wrong perhaps...
Looks like Big Bird might be this year’s top Halloween costume. This due to Mitt Romney’s comments during the presidential debates. Not one to let us down, I hear Mitt promises an even more inane comment before the election. My guess, a random reference to MR. T….hard not to pity the fools who vote for him anyway.
The American Music Award Nominees came out this week. Any highlights, no. Seriously, outside of 2 nominations, the rest consisted of horrible pop crap, it was a brutal nominees list. Oh American Music Awards, you used to be cool...And music in general, for shame!
A new survey says 20% of women prefer a man with a hairy chest. Incase you need to know ladies, 0% of men prefer a hairy chest on you…a little public service announcement from me to you.
On the flip side, guys, listen up, a new study says women are more attracted to men with red complexions. Start holding your breath; and watch the ladies come running!...You know, to sit you up, cause you fainted, fell, and cracked your head.
In music, Guns N Roses is working on a new CD…So expect that sometime in 2027….Lil’ Chinese Democracy joke for you.
Finally, for the nerds, confirmed, an Angry Birds Star Wars edition is in the works. The game will be out in early November. Now you can be nerdy & waste time all at once…beautiful age we live in isn’t it?!
-Gilmore
--Oh P.S. From the snack world. Do you like Pringles? Well, this is either brilliant, or Pringle blasphemy. Heading toward the holiday season 3 new flavours are coming our way. Pumpkin Pie Spice, White Chocolate Peppermint and Cinnamon & Sugar. Not sure if those are flavours I want in a chip...What do you think? Leave me a comment below!

These Are The Things I Think About -- Oct1st-8th
First things first, Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you've had a great one. Here's what happened in the world this week:
A sign of good economic news perhaps? After falling 3 straight years, new numbers say beer drinking among North Americans is up! Considering we’re heading into a hockey lockout I say this is the time we need to bear down and show our gusto. Let’s keep up the good work everybody, keep drinking!…Mmmm beer…
More nudie photos from the Royal Family came out this week. Good news, we dodged a bullet, they aren’t of the Queen. Instead, more naked photos of Kate Middleton. Last time it was topless, this time around bottomless.
From my only in India file, doctors there recently removed a 4-pound hairball from a 19 year-old girl. She had the hairball because of a strange habit of eating hair and chalk at school. I hear her reasoning for doing it, “…still tasted better then Indian food”
For the 13th year in a row, Coca-Cola is the world’s Top Brand. I’ll guess one of the most sugary too! The rest of the top 5 are computer companies Apple IBM, Google & Microsoft.
Talking Microsoft…(classy segue time!)…Scientists now confirm American men are smaller then Canadian men when it comes to the size of their “man parts”. Just so you know ladies, the average Canadian man measures almost ½ and inches larger then the average American man…Bonus points Canadian men also know how to do it in a canoe, or a snow suit!
Finally some food for thought, a Philadelphia strip club is being sued after a man’s bladder was ruptured during a lap dance. Oh, that can’t be good…The stripper landed on him so hard he’s also suffered nerve damage in his back. My only question, exactly how big was this stripper?! Philadelphia size maybe…they do like their cheese steaks!
-Gilmore
--Oh P.S. Friday was Global James Bond Day, this in celebration of the 50th anniversary of 007's. Friday’s date in 1962 the first Bond, Dr. No starring Sean Connery was released in theatres.
Here’s the debut of Bond, his first scene his first line:
