"Leap year is late."

Some news updates...

The band Ok Go has made quite a splash with their hit new video for "Here It Goes Again". In it, the band, using a home video camera, film themselves performing a self-choreographed "dance" involving the use of treadmills. The video has since become a popular viewing on the streaming video site youtube.com. What does it say about a culture if, when a large percent of the population is obese, people won't look at treadmills unless a catchy power pop band choreographs a dance on them...in pink trousers and sunglasses?



Plans have been made to send a moderate group of UN peacekeeping forces to aid the African Union in assuaging the violence in the Darfur region, although their true role is unclear. Here's hoping that Operation: Remember What Happened in Rwanda? goes well.



Brad Pitt has continued to maintain his position that he will not marry Angelina Jolie until everyone has the right to marry whomever they wish. Apparently, Brad Pitt lives in a TV reality show where he thinks people care. Gee-whiz, Brad! What the heck do we care? I have a better cause, Brad. You should promise to never ever open your mouth until mute people have the right to talk. Please, take that one up.



The Dallas Cowboys have celebrated their seat at the top of the NFC East and playoff entrance.....by getting shanked by the Philadelphia Eagles in probably their most important game of the season. Wide Receiver Terrell Owens offered his own helpful suggestion for the loss: "Meh, they didn't throw me the ball enough, meh..." Apparently, Terrell Owens thinks that he is the difference between a W (win) and an L (loss), because his teammates forgot to throw the ball to him. T. O. seems to not realize that he forgot to catch the ball. In a related story, I just want to point out that Terrell Owens has 1 more L in his name than he has W's. So, he's already one game behind himself.

The Dallas Cowboy's publicity team has tried to put positive spin on the situation. Their solution is to sell small blue and white necklaces which fit tightly around the neck. They're being called the Official "Chokers" of the Dallas Cowboys. (hehe) Proceeds will benefit the "Hey, T. O., you want some cheese with that wine?" fund.
