149th Edition - 4/29/07

Wow - can you tell me heart just isn't in it lately?

I need football. Where are the pig-skin gods? If the Cubs aren't going to make any noise my summer is ruined (besides the kick-arse bachelor party that is mere weeks away).

Anyway here's some stuff to keep you entertained, because I know the Cavs-Pistons aren't doing it for you...

*Thanks to Pfil for telling me about the 'red band' "Superbad" trailer (red band means it's an 'R' rated trailer. And you can find it here -
http://www.slashfilm.com/2007/04/30/superbad-red-band-movie-trailer/
- no nudity, just language.

*And here's Michael Cera doing a little mock-up from "Knocked Up" which comes out Friday is totally worth seeing.

Once again, language, no nudity. I assume this is the same type of thing that got Eric Stoltz fired from "Back to the Future."

*And one more for the road - Here's Will Ferrell in "Third Date."

*Finally, White Stripes with "Icky Thumb"
