These Are The Things I Think About -- May5th-12th

He sings Whole Lotta Love, her, a Whole Lotta Crazy. (Random aside, this totally sounds like a cheesey sitcom description) Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant has obtained a restraining order against a fan. A woman named Alysson Billings, has been harassing him for over 3 years. Things got extra weird when she found out about his latest girlfriend. Alysson sent messages like "Your betrayal with another woman…stabs my mind/you are about to fall for that dirty old crotch./I cannot, will not, shall not live this way anymore." Yikes! --(“What will Robert and Alysson be up to this week?!…catch ‘Whole Lotta Chaos’ Thursdays on…”) 

To real sitcoms & dramas, we are into season finale time on TV. Many shows are wrapping the next few weeks. American Dad & Bob’s Burgers are among shows finishing up tonight*. Community finished its season earlier this week. How NBC would want to scrap that show last year is beyond me. And, we said goodbye to Tom Selleck’s moustache for another year, Blue Bloods was also among this week’s season enders. 

Sad and odd news, Peter Robbins the voice of ‘Charlie Brown’ from the old cartoons, he’s in trouble with the law. Peter has just been sentenced to drug rehab and a year in jail. His quote when asked about the ruling: Good Grief! 

Customs officials in the Caribbean just arrested three fake nuns for drug smuggling cocaine. Dear Whoppi Goldberg, there’s the ‘Sister Act 4’ plot you’ve been looking for. 

Finally, here’s something to save your ‘Money Money Money’ for. The ABBA museum in Sweden opens this week. How much you wanna bet all the displays are made of Ikea furniture?! Oh, come on, “Take a chance on me” with that joke...Yeah, yeah, I know what you are thinking “Mamma Mia” that was bad.
--And that my friend is the hat trick of ABBA song references. Didn’t think you were gonna end up at that when you started reading did ya ;-)

--Oh P.S. *-Reminder, you’ll wanna record those shows. A huge night of NHL hockey is ahead. Including the Leafs, they’ve made it to Game 6 against Boston. It’s another F*&k or Swim game, Go Leafs Go! Keep it coming!… 
This past Monday was Game 3, the first Leafs Playoff home game in since 2004; a tough loss, it featured however another very fine CBC opening montage. This one gave Leafs fans butterflies. Bonus points on the Jim Cuddy CBC: 

 
…Fact: If the Leafs win tonight’s game the crowds cheers will likely blow the roof off the Air Canada Centre!
