I'm watching 211lb Greco-Roman wrestling on NBC right now and they're highlighting this Egyptian named Karam Ibrahim and the commentators have mentioned that he wants to train in the US for pro wrestling but the Egyptian Olympic council convinced him to go for the Olympics, and he's won the Gold in his division. He's got flash and speed, he's 6ft 3in and probably between 210-220 right now, bares a passing resemblance to the Rock and they just mentioned Kurt Angle's switch from amatuer to pro. Who knows, we could be looking at a future star here (I'd say get Pritchard, Angle and Regal to train him). Here's a photo of him

I've already gone through 2 boxes of these things in like 3 days, and I'm gonna buy more. Why I just can't make a PB & J sandwich is beyond my thinking apparently.

I recently borrowed a bunch of tapes from a co-worker of MST3K episodes, mostly seasons 2-5, stuff I haven't seen in years, reminded me of how great the show was, and how much I missed it. So, knowing there are plenty of MSTies on the board (Amazing Rando I'm looking at you) I decided to make a thread for all our memories, fav quotes, any related stories and links- Like this site MST3K Review And the offical page Satellite News (I recommend reading the Show History, facinating if you don't know much. What do you think sirs?

As an addition to "Pomp & Circumstance" I also expect Ric Flair if I hear Also Sprach Zarathustra and Ricky Steamboat if I hear "Sirius"

Why did I see John Cena on the intro to SNL tonight?

That's not a bad tough decision to have, all things considered I think they can have a winning season this year, probably not make the post season, but 84-85 wins certainly possible.

Micah Owings had 4 scoreless innings today, God I'm so glad we got him from AZ. And Bailey's coming around, I expect to see Owings get the 5th spot, but Bailey won't be too far behind.

Anyone know offhand what JBL's legitimate net worth is right now?

Oh Thank God, DarKnight just got me off the hook lol

Wow, I feel like I'm gonna come across as a defender here. I thoroughly enjoyed 'Watchmen' last night. Most of the criticisms I'd been reading were that it was overloaded, bloated, didn't flow and turgid. But I felt fully immersed and never felt the film dragged, or felt that the film felt like a 2 3/4hr film. I did read the novel over the last year, and while I feel overall it is better at transferring the nuances of the themes, I do feel that Snyder did get a couple of themes spot on. Namely that so-called heroics are futile at best, because human nature itself is so unpredictable that to attempt to 'right wrongs' will never truly change things. And the fact that Adrian's ultimate goal of peace comes through intimidation and fear, not by any change in human nature. I might be the only one who was ok with Goode as Ozymandias. I think he nailed him as a vain playboy, and later a man consumed by his own hubris. And Wilson WAS Night Owl perfecly. In the end, I do feel that the film doesn't stay with me that much, but I can't deny that for me, for its running time, I was completely involved. The closest film it reminded me of was 'Blade Runner' in fact. I'd give it around a B+ overall.

Ebert's review is up: Watchmen Review

Michelle Dessler alive and well I see

He cries like a bitch and dumps bitches like a bitch

I always find it funny when everyone's racing to catch a train/plane/whatever and then the only one leaving doesn't depart for like 6hrs, so that the 1st 6 teams or so end up leaving at the same time.

I feel I need a Doc Brown chalkboard explanation just to get my head around it.

If it's news we don't care about, why would we talk about it in a thread?

HHH gets 7 years bad luck now right

I don't know who this is leading to with Jericho- Rourke, Flair, Hogan, Austin- but it's some of the best work Jericho's ever done.

Oh, if only Bret Hart would do an on screen promo with Jericho for this fued
