Michael Symon New Host


Food Network is showing commercials for the new season of Dinner Impossible with Michael Symon (who I mistakenly spelled Simon in a post before.)

Robert Irvine as most people know lied about a lot of information on his resume and was dropped from this great show. Hopefully Symon can be as entertaining as Irvine always had been!

My *NEW* Website


Less than two weeks ago, I opened a BRAND NEW WEBSITE! called View Through My Lens. There's going to be a ton of photo galleries AND the website goes along with my Photo Blog. Right now there are a few galleries up, including a gallery of CLOUD photos,
and a great gallery of Heavy On Wrestling photos shot on June 14th in Superior Wisconsin.

There will be a lot more galleries in the future as I bring my camera to more and more places :) Most will be Northern Minnesota photos, seeing how I live in Northern Minnesota. Click the blog title to view the site!

Michael Simon Battle Finally


A commercial last night during Iron Chef America, advertised a new Michael Simon Battle for next Sunday (the 15th.) It's about time they had a new battle with someone OTHER than Bobby Flay or Cat Cora. It seems like Food Network is pushing Bobby Flay for every show they've got, since he's a big part of 'The Next Food Network Star,' a show which I do not watch. Let's see some other 'Iron Chefs' do battle.

Completely Random Stuff, WWE/WCW Wrestling Entrance Themes


Out of complete boredom I went to Youtube to see what there was online for old WWE Wrestlers entrance themes.. a few of my favorites..

Jimmy Superfly Snuka


Ultimate Warrior's Rollin Dead Man Walkin! Keep Rollin!


Steve Austin Titantron


Ya can't post any of these entrance videos without the DX Entrance.. even though the 2007+ version of DX has been really lame with "Shawn Michaels" fricken religious kick.


The NwO Wolfpac theme from WCW was also a great one


Shane McMahon ShanoMac titantron video


Ya can't mention money without
Ted DiBiase.. one of the classic's


Ok, so wrestling is "fake" and "scripted" but who cares?

Ice Road Truckers Season 2!!


Ice Road Truckers Season 2 starts this week! Tonight (Sunday Night) was the Season 2 preview show. There have been posts online that they weren't filming a season 2 because it's too dangerous... but that was just for the diamond mines I guess. Season 2 is 1000 miles NORTH of the other ice road.. and they drove on the Arctic Ocean for this season. As with last year, this season will be on History Channel at 8 pm central/9 Eastern. This was one of my favorite shows to watch last summer and hopefully is this year also.

Iron Chef America, Michael Simon

I know I don't post on this blog that often, but I'm going to start trying to, along with posting on my Photo Blog a lot more often..

A while back I posted about Michael Simon winning the Iron Chef America contest to find a new Iron Chef....The thing is.. they've had new Iron Chef episodes on lately and I still haven't seen him actually "battle" in an episode since the first one he did...

Same with Mario Batali, who it turns out is still an Iron Chef though there were rumors that he'd left the show which was the reason for the contest. There have been more Iron Chef Cora and Iron Chef Flay episodes than the others... I'd rather seen more Morimoto, Simon, and Batali Iron Chef episodes than watch Cat Cora lose once in a while.

Just wanted to do a little rant so there ;)

Cool Aquarium Webcams


I've always liked watching live streaming webcams of different places, including aquariums such as the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Check it out.. click on the blog title. Occasionally on the Kelp Forest cam you can watch aquarium employees feed fish and even do live Q&A sessions.

They also have sea and fresh water otter cams, penguin cams (which are offline now) and an aviary as well.

Carl Pohlad, Cheap Bastard



I just wanted to take a second and mention how sick I am of Carl Pohlad not keeping his free agents. Torii Hunter's gone from the Twins forever, signing with the Anaheim Angels, because Pohlad's too fucking cheap to put up the money to keep him signed. The Twins are getting a brand new money making stadium, yet Pohlad and the Twins are too cheap to pay the guy. Next up, Joe Nathan and Johan Santana, two of the best pitchers in the league, will be free agents that Pohlad won't pay to play for the Twins.

The new stadium will be a huge money maker for Pohlad's family, especially when they're too damn cheap to pay for a competitive team.

Iron Chef DVD's Petition



There's an ongoing 'petition' online for IRON CHEF DVD's to be made.. via Petitionspot.com

Since Food Network's not showing many if any of the old episodes they possess at this time, it would be nice to be able to buy 'season' dvd's of the show to have forever. If they were still showing the original Japanese made episodes I'd record them on my computer and burn them myself but they're not showing those so I can't exactly record them. If only I'd had this new computer with Vista Media Center and tv tuner card to record them before.

Michael Simon wins "Next Iron Chef'





In what had to be an upset for Food Network.. Michael Simon won their Next Iron Chef competition that was held to replace Mario Batali who has obviously gone from Food Network.. since he showed up on a full episode of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations on Travel Channel I knew Batali had to be done as an Iron Chef

The competition on all the shows seemed to be geared towards an easy win for John Besh, but in the end it turne dout that Michael Simon out-did John Besh in the end and won the role on Iron Chef America!

Could Big Brother Be Rigged??


I haven't hit up this blog for a while and I figured it was well past time to do a post so here's the first post since June.

For the first time ever, I'm watching Big Brother(this is season 8 now) on CBS, and on Showtime-Too 'After Dark' and all seemed to be playing out well, until now.. when "America's Player," a new twist in the game, was 'put up' aka nominated for eviction from the house.

This new twist allows people to text message in and vote online on a list of tasks CBS creates, and to allow people to actually be Eric's vote rather than him cast them himself.

This load of bullshit twist, I personally believe after witnessing what's gone on the past couple days since he was nominated, creates a fraud out of the Big Brother show. There are a couple girls in Eric's alliance, Jameka and Jessica, who have come out of Diary Room (where they speak candidly to a camera that films their thoughts for the tv show only) session saying stuff to the extent of 'Big Brother' putting doubts in their head and hinting that Eric's not lying to them about stuff when it's blatantly obvious to the viewer that he is.

I won't go into details (because people who watch know, and those who don't have already stopped reading) other than that the people that America has voted for him to vote out have gone against the way Eric's played and aligned himself in past weeks and cast shadows over OTHER players in that original alliance.

If 'Big Brother' aka CBS Producers really are hinting and putting thoughts into the people's heads who are ready to vote out CBS's 'Twist' of America's Player, then I believe the game is a big fraud now and a huge waste of everyone's time. I also believe that this can and may create a giant battle between evicted players and CBS after the show is over.

Just my thoughts, take them as you will :) I'm still going to watch this show and see how far they actually let America's Player go into the game, obviously he can't be allowed by CBS to win the whole thing, that's a gigantic conflict of interest.

S.C. Cops: Naked Couple Falls 50 Feet From Rooftop to Their Deaths


COLUMBIA, S.C. — Police on Wednesday were investigating how a naked couple fell 50 feet from the roof of a downtown office building to their deaths.

The bodies were found on the road by a passing cabdriver around 5 a.m. Wednesday.

Clothing was discovered on the roof, leading authorities to suspect the man and woman, in their early 20s, may have been having sex. Their identities were not released.

"It's too early to rule out anything," Columbia police Sgt. Florence McCants said, but McCants said a preliminary investigation didn't show any sign of foul play.
