Yo peeps, gotta do a photo shoot for the City Paper, so I’m not gonna have time right now for Week in Review. Will get to work on it asap. Thanks for your patience. In the meantime, a quick reminder: One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest , one of the greatest films of all time, will be playing Monday, and I will be celebrating my B-Day then, so I want you guys to show up. It’s gonna be fun.

Going to meet with a friend about other burlesque acts for Quizzo Bowl. In the meantime, I want u to be in charge of the site and let me know what is the best city in the USA. We already discussed worst city, now let’s move to best. To be honest, I think Philly is number one. If there was one I liked better, I would probably live there. We’ve got all four sports, great food, great nightlife, a little bit of attitude, and it is affordable to live here. I’m a big fan of San Fran, and I gotta admit it, I like Chicago. As far as smaller cities go, I am a big fan of Richmond, but part of that is probably sentimental (I have a lot of family there) and Portland, Maine (super friendly people, good cozy food).

Johnny’s co-host, Chip Chantry, and WOT regular Pat House both made Philadelphia Weekly’s “10 Comedians who don’t suck” list. Congrats to both of these funny men who are both, unfortunately, bad human beings (Pat was arrested for kicking a panda at the zoo in 2004, and Chip once played a prank on a passed out roommate by injecting him with leprosy.)

The site is currently experiencing some minor technical difficulties. Some features may not work as expected. We’re working to resolve the issues.

-There is talk of a TV reality show called “Virgin Territory” in which Jenna Jameson and Paris Hilton will teach people how to lose their virginity. Yeah, nothing should calm those “first time” jitters like knowing that 60 million Americans are gonna laugh their asses off when you struggle to undo her bra strap. And in case you are wondering, the answer is no, I will not be losing my virginity on this show.

-Rocky gets dissed for winning an Oscar, 30 years later. This great line from the director of Network: “I’ve been nominated five times,” the director told The Associated Press last year. “But on two occasions, I got so pissed off about what beat us. With ‘Network,’ we were beaten out by ‘Rocky’ for Christ’s sake.”

-This is hilarious. And people say that giant corporations are just unfeeling monoliths. For shame.

-This from a story about a person named Niaja who bought and sold counterfeit prescription pills such as Viagra and Percoset: Kane used the screen name “moreandmoreNiaja” to facilitate the Internet purchases. The bogus drugs were then shipped from China to Kane in Philadelphia. Again, kids, if you are going to do something illegal on the internet, it is somewhat wise to not use your actual name, especially when you are probably like one of 3 people in the entire city named “Niaja”.

FOX 29 has decided to trash it up a little. Sweet!

Well, I’ve never really heard anything good about Indianapolis, and everybody always gushes over how great Chicago is, so I got to wondering, let’s talk about what the best and worst cities in America are. And let’s start with worst. This is kind of a tough one. Charlotte sucks. It is a soulless corporate refuge filled with the lamest, most boring people on earth. Detroit is really awful (especially it’s hookers). It is filthy and scary and mean, and the winters must be brutal right there on the lake. But it does have three sports teams (well, two and a half), the Ford Museum, which is awesome, and it is the home of Motown. Dallas is reprehensible. Every bar and restaurant there is as big as the Wachovia Center, and they all look equally stupid, and the people there are just plain weird. Norfolk, VA, is awful as well. It like an enormous strip mall, as it consists of just one crappy fast food chain after another with a Pep Boys and Wal-Mart thrown in and here and there for miles and miles and miles straight. But I’m gonna go with Reno. Middle of nowhere, wanna be Vegas with nothing else to do besides gamble. And in my case, get a rash on my arm that didn’t go away for a month. And no, it didn’t come from Reno hookers.
