A lot of online gambling websites allow you to bet on odd things... but I love this story on betting who on the Sopranos will die.

Longtime friend Ben finally has a blog for all his socio-political ramblings. Hey Ben... two years ago called, and it wants its trend back. And while I'm at it... I'll anticipate his response: Hey Dave... 10 years ago called, and it wants its lame joke back.

I picked up a new subscription of music for DJs known as Rythm Radio... and the back issues from 2004. I've added the songs to my database (and all the crazy mix names). I've also made a few cosmetic changes to the database and I've sped up the search engine considerably.

I heard a reference to palm-reading today, and I'm wondering if it was just a fad, or something that just kids do, or if a lot of people still do it. Now check out the title of this book. Quite poetic.

I just saw the audition scene from the end of Flashdance, so it's impossible not to have that Oscar winning "What a Feeling..." song in my head (Note that I have several different mixes of the song) ... but what kills me every time I see that scene is that it was really four different people dancing -- and one of them was a dude. I should really pick up the DVD in a discount bin somewhere.

Sopranos Pinball

The Writer's Guild of America has released their Top 101 Screenplays. I currently have 88 of them on DVD.

Trailer Park Boys -- The Movie has a teaser trailer up... and TPB Season 6 Starts in less than 2 weeks. Oh, boy!

So it's been bugging me for a long time... but I finally got around to finding out what to call those peppers you get at Quizno's: They're called Pepperoncini peppers.
