Updates on breaking stories, random thoughts from my mind, what I'm up to, etc...good times! Click 'like' please :)
Let's get right to the shtuff.....





KARDASHIAN IS....?
"My entire body is hairless."
KIM KARDASHIAN...in the new issue of "Allure" magazine. She adds, "I am Armenian, so of course I am obsessed with laser hair removal!"

Kim also discusses the sex tape she made with her then-boyfriend RAY J...which "leaked" in 2007. She says, "Not my most proud moment...but I think I've done a good job of replacing negative things with positive things."

Kim was a little prouder of showing off her body in "Playboy"...which she did later that year. She says, "It's nothing that I regret...being on the cover of 'Playboy' is very iconic.

"I was like, 'OK, I'm proud to do this and to show people that I don't have to be stick-skinny to be looked at as a sex symbol, and to me that's not what's attractive anyway.' So I was all for it, although I was very nervous."

Kim went to an all-girls school in Beverly Hills, where she was voted "Most Likely to Lie About her Ethnicity" and "Most Likely to Meet her Husband at the Million Man March." (???)

Speaking of Kim, she keeps saying she's single. But on Monday night she went out to dinner with her alleged boyfriend, Cowboys wide receiver MILES AUSTIN. They were joined by teammate TONY ROMO. They went to a Chili's in Oxnard, California.








CANTON'S MARILYN MANSON IS SINGLE AGAIN...
EVAN RACHEL WOOD and MARILYN MANSON have broken up again. This is the THIRD time they've failed to keep the relationship together.

They first started dating in 2006, but broke up in 2008, during which time Evan was reportedly nailing actor SHANE WEST. They got together for a short time after that, but split again.

They got back together again, and Manson proposed to her onstage in Paris this past January. But a so-called "source" says, "They fought a lot. It was always on and off. He's a creative mind, so he's not the easiest person to be in a relationship with."
Not surprising.








BRETT FAVRE RETURNS...DUH.
I don't even really feel like writing about this since it was so obvious that this is what was going to happen. It's still not official yet, but the NFL Network and Fox Sports say it's happening.

The NFL Network is reporting that the team (Minnesota Vikings of course) sent three players...Steve Hutchinson, Jared Allen and Ryan Longwell...to Brett's home in Hattiesburg, Mississippi yesterday to coax him back, and it worked.

Fox Sports says Brett took a flight to Minnesota later in the day to join the team.

Brett has already missed the Vikings' training camp. If he is indeed playing this season, he has about three weeks to get ready. The Vikings open the season against the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints on September 9th.








AMUSING...
I just came across a list of the top-earning TV talk show hosts. Obviously OPRAH is #1...just found it surprising and slightly funny that CONAN makes $3 Million MORE than LENO does!
Sadly, the far less talented ryan seacrest (yes, lower case) earns about $13 Million more.








ASHLEY...YOU'VE BEEN PUT ON NOTICE!!! BSB AND NKOTB???
Ha! Q92 fan Ashley in North Canton has to be one of the biggest BSB fans I know! And now two of the biggest sensations of the '90s...the BACKSTREET BOYS and NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK...are reportedly working out a deal to tour together next year. And there's a chance BOYZ II MEN could be onboard as well! I'll be honest here, if it was BSB and BIIM, I *may* consider going, but adding NKOTB...I can't stomach that. Sorry.

Anyway, a so-called "source"...who is supposedly speaking from the 21st century...tells E! Online, "The idea is to recreate the boy band phenomenon. It will be the ultimate ladies' night out."
Nothing is official yet, though.








HIP$$$ HOP$$$ STARS$$$
"Forbes" magazine has put together a list of Hip-Hop's Biggest Earners over the past year...and JAY-Z came out on top. According to "Forbes", Jay pulled down an estimated $63 million over the past 12 months.
Here's the complete list...

#1.) Jay-Z, $63 million
#2.) Sean "Diddy" Combs, $30 million
#3.) Akon, $21 million
#4.) Lil Wayne, $20 million
#5.) Dr. Dre, $17 million
#6.) Ludacris, $16 million
#7.) Snoop Dogg, $15 million
#8.) Timbaland, $14 million
#9.) Pharrell Williams, $13 million
#10.) Kanye West, $12 million








THIS ALWAYS MAKES ME FEEL OLD...
Every year, a professor at Beloit College in Beloit, Wisconsin, puts out something called the "Mindset List," which sums up the pop culture knowledge of incoming college freshman.

This year's college freshmen are the Class of 2014. The majority of them were born in late 1991 or early 1992. I was 6. Here are eight of the items on the Mindset List that may send you straight to the Botox clinic by lunchtime...

#1.) They don't remember the L.A. riots or RODNEY KING...those happened in '92, the year they were born.

#2.) They know CLINT EASTWOOD as a director, not as Dirty Harry.

#3.) Very few of them ever used CORDED PHONES. In fact, before they even hit age 10, everyone had cell phones.

#4.) To them, ICE-T is a television cop...not the guy who did "Cop Killer".

#5.) Czechoslovakia split up into the Czech Republic and Slovakia when they were less than two years old. And the Soviet Union crumbled before they were born.

#6.) They've never known pizza places with 30-minutes-or-it's-free delivery guarantees. Domino's stopped that before they were born.

#7.) They have zero memory of DAN QUAYLE.

#8.) By the time they were listening to music, grunge was over and boy bands were back in.









TOP AND BOTTOM COLLEGES...

GET OFF YER ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know, you've got to hand it to China. As much as they've quickly become one of the biggest and most important economies in the world, occasionally they still call back to their EVIL COMMUNIST ROOTS.

In eastern China, park officials were sick of people just sitting around clogging up their benches all day. So they've started installing benches with coin-operated timers...and if your time runs out, SHARP SPIKES shoot up out of the seat. (!!!!!!!!!)

Allegedly, these spikes won't cause any serious harm...but they're SHARP enough that you couldn't sit on them without being in pain. Yikes!!








PROTECTING YOUR TEETH...
If you don't go to the dentist enough, you might eventually need a DEEP cleaning, which is where they clean UNDER your gums. It costs about TEN TIMES more than a normal visit, and it's about as pleasant as it sounds.

That's why you have to take care of your smile. Here's a list from "Prevention" magazine of four weird ways you can take better care of your teeth. My friend Angie is my personal resident dental expert, so she can feel free to write any of these off as BS...

#1.) DON'T BRUSH AFTER YOU DRINK POP. The acid combined with the brushing erodes your enamel. So you have to rinse your mouth out before you brush.

And according to a recent study in the "British Dental Journal," if you drink pop though a STRAW, it'll help preserve your enamel because the soda won't come in contact with your teeth as much.

#2.) GET MORE VITAMIN C. According to a study of more than 12,000 people, if you don't get at least 60 milligrams of vitamin C a day...which is what's in an 8-ounce glass of orange juice...you're more likely to develop gum disease.

#3.) TAKE YOUR TOOTHBRUSH TO THE POOL. Chlorine protects against bacteria, but it also lowers the pool's pH level and makes it more acidic. So if there's too much chlorine in the pool, the water can erode your enamel and stain your teeth.

If you're a frequent swimmer, or you spend more than an hour in the pool, you should brush your teeth and rinse as soon as you get out.

#4.) KISS MORE OFTEN. According to the Academy of General Dentistry, kissing increases the amount of saliva in your mouth, which helps rinse away the bacteria that causes cavities. Or, if you're not getting any action, you can just chew sugar-free gum.









There ya go. Make it a GREAT hump day!
