British politician John Stonehouse is best known for doing what in 1974? (It’s a pretty neat story.)

…are the ones that make the least sense.

You’re sitting at your desk, wondering how in the world you’re going to get through those final few hours of a hazy Friday. I may have the answer: Anagrams!
Where’s Johnny Takes Commanding Lead
 (Custom).jpg)
Where’s Johnny took a rather commanding lead in the Doc Watson’s Big Money Bonanza, but there is still plenty of time for a couple of other teams to make a comeback. The Quizzo Bowl champs held off the Dropkick Finkelstein’s who came in second for the 2nd straight week. The Holy Pontiffs finished third to remain withing striking distance. Here are the standings after four weeks, with four weeks left to play.
1st-Where’s Johnny-18 points
2nd-The Holy Pontiffs-14 points
3rd-Johnny Makes Me Wanna-8 points
3rd-Dropkick Finkelsteins-8 points
5th-The Wanderers-3 points
6th-Claire Huxtable-2 points
6th-Corner of the Bar-2 points
6th-Jolly Bengali’s-2 points
6th-We Put the FU in Fun-2 points
Let’s look at your kitchen

Hey, former BTNJGT contestant Krystyna is participating in the fringe festival, and needs pics of people’s kitchens. Here’s the scoop.
As a possible addition to my presentation of The
Kitchen, for the Philly Fringe, I would like to fill
the space, be that walls or video, with photographs of
kitchens. If any one has a digital camera or such
media to photo and e-mail these pictures for
consideration I would appreciate it. Please note your
name, if you want your name mentioned or anonymous,
and contact info for records.
Please e-mail kys_4@yahoo.com
Also, do not be afraid to be daring yet honest. Human
(what the hell, and pets) inclusion is great,
particularly in a normal kitchen activity. As time
goes on I will inform those participants whose photos
will be displayed and in what format.
Whoops

I forgot to congratulate my boy Allen Iverson on his birthday yesterday. Perhaps the greatest piece of trivia about Philly’s favorite trivia host? I played against AI in high school. No kidding. I’ll recap the story sometime. Anyway, here’s the meaning of each of the tattooes on his body. Pretty interesting.
1984
On this date in 1949, George Orwell’s novel 1984 was published. Here is an interesting analysis of how much of it has come true. Oh, and here’s an interesting piece of irony (and don’t send me some b.s. about the definition of irony. I’ve had so many people tell me so many different things about it, I’m losing my mind.)

This is a pretty funny blog that follows Craig Biggio’s quest to be hit by more pitches than anyone else in Major League history.
