50 Coolest TV Shows Ever Posted February 8, 2012 by Corey Carter

From SHORTLIST.COM:

THE 50 COOLEST TV SHOWS EVER

The drug of the nation

Some would have it that TV is no more than a glorified idiot box sent to sanitise and dupe the masses. Those people are either academic cultural theorists or have obviously watched nothing more than Loose Women. Or both.

Back in the real world, however, we know different. Television is right up there with music, films and books when it comes to being cool. How could you watch Monty Python, The Simpsons or The Wire and think differently? Exactly.

So, herewith are the 50 coolest TV programmes of all time. The shows that changed the way we think, the way we dress and how we watch TV itself.

 

--The list isn't ranked.  It's in chronological order.  Here are a few highlights:

 

 

--"Batman", 1966-1968 . . . the live action one with Adam West

 

--"The Prisoner", 1967-1968

 

--"Happy Days", 1974-1984

 

--"Knight Rider", 1982-1984

 

--"The Simpsons", 1989-present

 

--"The Fresh Prince of Bel Air", 1990-1996

 

--"Seinfeld", 1990-1998

 

--"Twin Peaks", 1990-1991

 

--"The Sopranos", 1999-2007

 

--"Freaks and Geeks", 1999-2000

 

--"Mad Men", 2007-present

 

--"Breaking Bad", 2008-present

Top 5 Northland School Mascots Posted January 23, 2012 by Corey Carter


This article makes me think...what are the 5 coolest Northland High School Nicknames.  Here they are (in my opinion)

5-Ashland Oredockers  (If you've ever been to Ashland, you can't help but see the huge docks in the lake when you drive into town...so this is very fitting...)

4-International Falls "Broncos" (If my memory serves me right, the nickname is from the famous "Bronco" Nagurski who played football for I-Falls, then played for the University of Minnesota, then in the NFL.  Pretty cool when a nickname for an entire school district is actually somebody's nickname!)

3-Cloquet "Lumberjacks" (Middle-schoolers may giggle when I remind them that it IS "Wood City USA" after all...so this makes perfect since.  Still like to see them play hockey in flannel button-down shirts tho...)

2-Aitkin "Gobblers" (Not EXACTLY in our listening area, but pretty close...and a lot of our local teams play them every year.  What a bunch of turkeys!)

1-Esko "Eskomos"  (I may be a TAD bit biased on this one!!  Go Blue & Gold!!!)

 

"Cougar" Has Become So Tied to Horny Middle-Aged Women That a High School Rejected It as Their Mascot

 

Remember back when a "cougar" was just an animal, and NOT a 42-year-old woman with fake breasts and a rose tattoo on her upper inner thigh?  Well, that era is OVER.

  --In Utah, a school board REJECTED a high school's attempt to change its mascot to the cougar . . . because they felt the term was associated with randy middle-aged women more than animal itself.

 --The students at Draper Corner Canyon High in Utah voted to become the Cougars.  They say it's because Brigham Young University has the cougar as its mascot, and a huge majority of the students are Mormons and BYU fans.

  --But the Canyons School Board cited the latest edition of Webster's Dictionary.  They now have the second definition of "cougar" listed as, quote, "a middle-aged woman seeking a romantic relationship with a younger man."

  --Yep, that meaning for cougar is SO prominent now that it's made its way into Webster's.  And that was enough for the school board to reject it.

  --The high school will go with the runner-up name choice . . . the Chargers.

Parody of L.M.F.A.O.'s "Sexy and I Know It" - "I'm ELMO and I Know It" VIDEO Posted January 16, 2012 by Corey Carter

Kim Kardashian Video - Real or Fake?? Posted January 12, 2012 by Corey Carter

Okay, so if you listen you know how much I LOVE the Kardashians...(insert eye-roll here) so check this out.  Real or Fake??

This from PEREZHILTON.COM:

It would be pret-ty lame if this was all staged!

Earlier this week, we saw video footage (above) in which Kim Kardashian shares a car ride with mamma Kris Jenner and confesses that she's not feeling good about her marriage to Kris Humphries.

Now, a report has been released with some evidence that the video could have been faked.

Here's some reasons why the video might not be legit:

-Windows are totally blacked out
-No visible lights and the scene has low lighting
-Scene seems contrived, and could have been staged to gain sympathy for Kim

 

 

A World-Champion Basketball Player with a sense of HUMOR! Posted January 8, 2012 by Corey Carter

Dirk Nowitski, one of the best basketball players in the world, and a member of the defending NBA-champion Dallas Mavericks, for some reason, decided to have some fun reading a Brittney Spears song.  Not sure why...but remember, this guy is from Germany and has also admitted to LOVING David Hasselhoff's music...lol
