Those Crazy (and Behaved) Dutch


Besides being tall, disinclined to working overtime, and affable, the Dutch are considered very well behaved when supporting their national football team in the 2008 EuroCup.

From Euro2008.uefa.com,

Berne city president Alexander Tschäppät has praised the Netherlands supporters for their colour and conduct during the group games in the Swiss federal capital.

The Greatest American Hero on Heroes




William Katt (aka the Greatest American Hero) is going have a stint on season three of Heroes. Although I don't know if I have the patience to sit through another season, considering how slow going the beginning of season two was.

Buzz Cut Copy Cat?



My shirtless friend Alex has decided to buzz his hair for the summer. That's all well and good, so long as his inspiration gets mention, which can be traced first to me from last summer



And then to Jack from LOST



Respect the lineage.

Trolling for Batman

This is quite possibly the funniest troll posts I've ever seen.

Per urban dictionary, a troll is "one who posts a deliberately provocative message to a newsgroup or message board with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument."

I believe this guy meets this definition to a tee. Either that or he's a raging doofus. Some of my favorite commentaries on the deficiencies of Batman Begins include

The comics were dark, but also very fun, and that fun was accurately portrayed on tv in the 1960s. Batman the tv show was a cult hit, and while the effects weren't that great, it truly showed Batman as he was originally intended - as a super detective who wasn't afraid to get into fights, but was ultimately a really nice family man with a good sense of humor.

He then decides out of the blue to become Batman, but instead of Alfred making him his costume and weapons, he hires Samuel L. Jackson to do it for him. Now, I'm not a stickler for consistancy with the comic books, but this was really out of left field...

Batman himself doesn't have the stocky, square-jawed appearance that we all recognize, but is played by the thin guy from Memento.

The villains don't have the fun zaniness of the Joker or Mr. Riddles or the Pengiun and they're even a little scary.

Ways to make Dr. David Banner Angry


Here's an interesting website summarizing the provocations that caused Dr. David Banner to "Hulk out" in the Incredible Hulk TV series. Some of my personal favorites are

-Nightmares

-Being handcuffed to a woman who is falling over the cliff

-Receiving a speeding ticket

-Being placed in a cage with an angry gorilla
