A long time in the coming

So, in my last post while at Geocities a long time ago I said I would come up with my list of top cartoon characters shortly, but still haven't done so. The problem with doing a list of the top cartoon characters is that I admittedly have a limited sense of perspective (IE I don't know about the really old cartoon characters that well). However, here is my list:
1. Homer J. Simpson
2. Fred Flintstone
3. Yogi Bear
4. Daffy Duck
5. Donald Duck
6. Bender
7. Cartman
8. Scooby-Doo
9. Bugs Bunny
10. SpongeBobSquarePants
11. Lisa Simpson
12. Snoopy
13. Bullwinkle and Rocky
14. Porky Pig
15. Woody Woodpecker
16. Stewie Griffith
17. Papa Smurf
18. Mr. Magoo
19. Optimus Prime
20. Moe Scizlak
21. Peter Griffith
22. Brian (Griffith)
23. Marge Simpson
24. Bart Simpson
25. Heckle and Jeckle (talking crows)
26. The Polite Gophers
27. Foghorn Leghorn
28. Marvin the Martian
29. Henry the Chickenhawk
30. Speedbuggy
31. Mickey Mouse
32. Beavis and Butthead
33. Hank Hill
34. Guy from the Critic
35. Popeye
36. Dexter (Dexter's Laboratory)
37. Mandi (Grimm)
38. Thundarr
39. Johnny Quest
40. Wiley Coyote
41. Sylvester the Cat
42. Kenny
43. Wally Gator
44. Garfield
45. Darkwing Duck
46. Launchpad McQuack
47. Phillip J. Fry
48. Fat Albert
49. Comic Shop Guy
50. Tom and Jerry

So the top 19 are pretty well in order, after that, its just a list of the remainder of the top 50.

Paris Hilton: Words don't mean things!!

So, as a continuation of my prior post about Paris Hilton used to be hot, deposition transcripts have made their way onto the web. In her depositions, she stated that she doesn't know her friends' names, that the words in her emails don't mean anything, and other such things that show she is an idiot. Maybe words don't mean things anymore. In any event, Paris is stupid, just like that hot skank at the bar who'm I'm sure looks not-so-hot in the morning.

Update: So I am reading through the depositions and love this section that was not quoted on Egotastic:
Q: Were there any UK Publications?
A: No. Like US Weekly and In Touch. And there is the stuff in London.

Bad Call Update

Missy emailed me with this story today detailing how the ref who blew the call (the worst call ever) had his home vandalized. I think its funny that they think it is related to the call and not to the fact that he is a principal of a school in the area. I remember dumping a load of rotten apples on the doorstep of a teacher while in High School, so I don't think its far-fetched that a student did it. Of course, I don't think it is far fetched that a Steeler fan did it.

By the way Missy, (begin edit here) you are a wonderful person and I am happy to have you as a friend (end edit here).

So I used to think Paris was hot

So, according to IDLYITW, Paris Hilton pisses herself when she gets drunk. Back in the day when she was just a sex video slut appearing in JFM or whatever, she was hot. Now... Now she's just that annoying slutty girl that you find attractive when you are drunk, but realize what she really is the next day.

So I guess the real title of this post should be "I've woken up with a Hilton Hangover."

PS. The "w" key of my new laptop only works when I push really hard, and that makes it hard to type.

Why the "no interception" call in the Pitt-Colts game was the worst call ever

UPDATE: The NFL looked at it my way and didn't fine Joey Porter.

So, in Sunday's maddening tense game (so tense one fan had a heart attack) between the Steelers (my team) and the Colts (nobody's team), with time winding down and the Steelers up by 11, Tory Polumau (sp?) intercepted a Peyton Manning pass. However, the Colts tossed out their challenge flag. Upon further review by me and the rest of the world, it was clear that the interception was made and he fumbled while trying to get up and run with it. However, one official, after five minutes of review saw it differently and reversed the call. The NFL later said that the call was a judgment call. Then, later the same day, the NFL did something that it rarely does, and admitted the ref made a mistake. Now, whoopdie do, the ref made a mistake. It happens all the time, right? Well, not so fast. This mistake wasn't made in a snap-decision judgment call like a Pass Interference call or the like. This was a decision that took several minutes to make and was with the aide of a video evidence. This decision meant that there was conclusive video evidence of a non-catch. However, Troy clearly had both knees hit once when he had possession, he rolled over (still with possession mind you) and then started to stand up before the ball was knocked out of his hand by his knee. Because this call was a calculated call, and not a snap decision, this was the worst call ever by a ref and Joey Porter should not be fined for questioning whether the refs were cheating.

I thought this only happened in cartoons

I am sure you've seen this story about how a man found out his girlfriend was cheating on him when the parrot started saying things like "I love you Gary" in his girlfriend's voice. I mean everytime I've tried to get a parrot to repeat what I say it just gets mad and claws itself away from me. Here, she says something on the phone with the bird in the room and he repeats it? On another note, I understand that the relationship wasn't going well, but why still live there if he talks to the bird more than you?
