Hey, hows it going? You, uhh, you enjoying your Easter weekend? That's good. Hey, I'm going to spend the remainder of this post revealing my picks for this week's best and most memorable moments. You sticking around to read it? All right, here it is...
Photo of the Week: Hairstyle Made With Actual Money
Money may not bring you happiness, but it sure does get you noticed.
Goal of the Week: Bobby Ryan of the Anaheim Ducks In His Team's Western Conference Playoff Series Vs. the Nashville Predators
Trust me, this is the coolest thing that you will see anybody with such a non-threatening name like Bobby Ryan ever do in their lifetimes.
TV Show Premiere of the Week: "Game of Thrones"
The ratings may not have reflected the hype that the show's pilot episode was getting for months, but the overall product did (for the most part). It had everything you could want in an HBO fantasy: Great acting, great characters, good writing, wonderful looking sets and scenery, blood, multiple beheadings, gratuitous nudity, sex (of many kinds), sexism, adorable wolf puppies, AND THEN SOME. In other words, a good start to a promising series.
Stories of the Week:
-The Actual Story of the Week (Besides the Fighting in Libya): Syria Experiences Worst Day of Bloodshed Since Uprising Began Last Month
-The Tiger Woods Saga of '09 Memorial Story of the Week: Oregon Man Caught Taking a Dump on Person's Lawn
I'm pretty sure that "What can brown do for you?" isn't a slogan of the United States Postal Service.
Dumbass Quote of the Week: This week, NFL writer Peter King in an article for Sports Illustrated reported this question asked by an anonymous NFL scout on the topic of draft prospect QB Andy Dalton of TCU:
"Has there ever been a red-headed quarterback in the NFL who's really done well? It sounds idiotic, but is there anyway that could be a factor? We've wondered."
Sounds like someone has taken that famous "South Park" episode a little bit too much to the heart. Well, let's see...Sonny Jurgensen wasn't too shabby of a quarterback (Hall of Fame, 18 year career). Also, Carson Palmer did have a few good years in him back in Cincinnati, so there's that. In other words, red heads do have the ability of doing stuff other than prop comedies and being busted secretaries on "Mad Men." Besides, Dalton is a daywalker QB, not a ginger QB, so not only does he have the fire, but he also has a soul to lead the team to victory. By the way, I wonder what this kid thinks about the whole ordeal?
Video of the Week: "The Tornado Took My Hamburger, Fries, and a Drink!"
I will pray for you.
People of the Week: Apple
for proving that they one of the closest things to Big Brother that we have in this country. This week, news surfaced across the country and around the globe that the very popular tech company has tracked and monitored every single location that a person has taken their iPhone 4 OSs and iPads since last June. The company also created a very detailed and state-of-the-art map for the purposes of pinpointing the locations as well. In other words, if you want to know whether you went to Six Flags with your family in June or July, or if you want to know where your special someone has been secretly going behind your back with their iPhones, there's a good chance that Apple has the info and you can use it to find out for yourselves. So, what does this all mean in the end? Is this just a simple case of a tech company tracking down where a person is so that they can make their web-connection services in pristine conditions throughout its use...or is this a case of paranoid genius Steve Jobs tracking down your every move like some ever-powerful ruler? It's probably just the former, but at least its fun to make fun of the situation by posting your tracking data to the Internet...right?
-Runner-up: Turkish-German actress Sila Sahin, who this week became the first ever Turkish woman to pose for Playboy magazine. So, yeah, freedom, women's cultural liberation, and what not. Now, how long before I can see this brave act taken place in photos?
And that's the way it was! Enjoy your Easter Sunday everyone!
Sincerely,
Your pal: mj15
