Where Dull Comes To Life!

NHL Playoffs, SNL Videos, HBO Programming, and Gangster Segway

Now that the NHL playoffs are upon us, we are getting into the better part of it. We are begining to see who are the contenders and who are the pretenders. The players all want this Cup bad and do anything it takes, wheter it means diving for that loose puck or just straight up fighting your opponent. That is what I love about the playoffs. The players do anything they need to get that Cup. They will play hurt, put it all on the line, just to win.

Also, I've discovered an old friend. Since the weather decieded to suck today, I didn't have to go to school. I caught up on some 'Saturday Night Live' videos. I came across a set of videos I really enjoy. They are about this couple who are trying to get a good or service and are just straight rude. The sketches are titled "Two A-Holes...". They are just so stupid and rude it is funny. (Two A-Holes At An Adoption Agency)Maybe I just like this video so much because the amazing Jeremy Piven is in it.

Speaking of the awesomeness of Jeremy Piven, this past week's episode of 'Entourage' was quite good. I can easily say it was better than the first episode of the season. You have to love Ari Gold having lunch with Lloyd and a gay television writer. Sadly, this show is only a half hour long, but 'The Sopranos' can be an hour long. Basically in episodes of 'The Sopranos' they stretch out something that can be said in half of an hour to an hour. I say we take control of that half hour and give it to either 'Entourage' or an Abe Vigoda variety show where he plays jokes on people about him dying. The show could either be called 'Abe'd' or possibly 'The Puppy Hour'.

Finally, one last thing. After 'Entourage' last night they had a show about the events leading up the the fight between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. in boxing. Well, Floyd Mayweather Jr. was hanging out with rapper '50 Cent'. I may have seen one of the funniest things from a rapper. Be prepared for this. 50 Cent was riding on a Segway. For those of you who don't remember what they were they were a scooter like device used by those who have given up on walking. Now up to this point I've never seen anyone ride one of these except for a stereotypical rich nerd if you will. I guess this is the new thing for rappers from the street to do. I just found it hilarious. He would say something, then ride off on his Segway. Another good laugh from the rap community.

P.S. - I am angry at 'The Sopranos' for having a 'Making Of' of a movie they made in the show. It is pointless and wastes HBO programming with crap. Again, Abe Vigoda would fit the bill.
