Who played the role of Carly Reynolds in Beverly Hills 90210?
Deviousness
The lovely Ginger and I are in the midst of something devious. We will let you know what we are up to later this week, but I just thought should know. No, we are not making out with each other. We did that once, in 2003, but it was like when Brandon Walsh and Valerie Malone (played by the lovely Tiffani Amber Thiessen. Meeeow!) started to make out in 90210, we just started laughing and said, “This is stupid.” So we won’t be going there again.
Beerfest tonight at the Trocadero
Beerfest, a film produced by the guys who brought you SuperTroopers, will be showing tonight at the Trocadero (1003 Arch). A film that you should be drunk to see at a place where you can not only drink to your heart’s content, but you can also win free beer! The Wheel of Terrific will be kicking things off at 7:30p.m.
Shananigoats win
Ok, sunshine state is too easy. What is the sunflower state?
Questions this week
Alright, I’m throwing up questions this week about sunshine, since today’s weather has me giddy. So post your answers in the comments section below the pics. ONE GUESS PER PERSON!
Bubbachuck on his way out
Am I the only one one with extremely mixed feelings about AI’s impending departure? On the one hand, this team was going absolutely nowhere with Iverson on the team, and I really wouldn’t mind getting some young talent or some draft picks in return for him. And to be honest, I really haven’t paid much attention to the Sixers in years,so I won’t miss him that much. But he was a lot of fun to watch play, and I certainly appreciated the way he left it all on the floor every night. He reminds me a lot of myself as a player except that he is, uh, really good.
Now that I coach a little league team, I can’t really hold Iverson up as a role model, though. Anytime I want a kid to try harder or show some hustle in practice I can’t really say, “Do you think this is the way AI practices?” because the answer would be “Yep.” And when guys are making fun of a teammate, I can’t really ask, “Do you think that this is the way AI talks to his teammates?” because he doesn’t exactly come off as a team leader. So in both cases I have to revert to Dwayne Wade and Lebron James, who are much better role models than AI.

THe Week that was
Wow, this was a wild one. Started with the Eagles game at the Troc. The Wheel of Terrific was pretty good, though we did one skit called “What did you ‘Putin’ My Sushi” that was high on concept but came off like a ton of bricks. But the other games went well, and the $100,000 Pyramid is always a huge hit. The game was great, of course, as the Eagles pulled of a win. BeerFest will be showing on Monday.
See if your team made the bold type and see if the Sofa Kingdom got upset in the Bounty Bowl after the jump,.
Working on it
Yeah, I’m working on the Week in Review, but it’s slow going b/c I actually went out the last two nights. And by went out, I mean, didn’t go anywhere but hung out at whichever bar I finished up quizzo at. Think I’m gonna take it easy tonight afer B-ball practice. Also, men who regularly play quizzo: I’ve got your New Year’s Resoluton all taken care of. Don’t worry about it. I have a very exciting goal for 2007 and you are going to help me achieve it by being better people. Details forthcoming.
Flagpole Sitting
A lot of people asked me about flagpole sting after last night’s question, “What fad was Shipwreck Kelly the king of?” There were tons of people climbing flag poles back then, so it must have been kool to look up and just see a bunch of people perched like birds all over the landscape as you made you way to work. Anyways, here is the best write up on it I could find.
Thursdays with Ginger
JGT: Old age and bitterness has caused me to become a rather dull stick in the mud who rarely ventures outside my freezing cold fortress. Therefore, in an effort to keep the website lively, I have brought on beer lass and local bon vivant Suzanne Woods (aka “The Lovely Ginger), who is always out, drinking good beer and eating great food throughout the city, despite having absolutely no money. She knows “what’s up” and is, quite frankly, much hipper than I. She also knows lots of hot chicks, as she is the force behind “In Pursuit of Ale“, the female beer drinking club in Philly. Here is her first of what will be a weekly column every Thursday.
For those of you who haven’t met me, I’m Ginger, Johnny’s leading “lovely assistant.” He coined that not me….I’m sort of his Vanna White. She actually has it much easier than me. I don’t think Pat Sajak is nearly as high maintenance as Johnny.
