Munchausen The Mavericks


Baron Davis. Some say donning the Bullet Fedora this weekend makes him the best Baron since The Beer Baron. Rex Banner and Mark Cuban, be damned!
- Michael Bublé wants us to call him irresponsible. Too bad we already call him dildo.
- Hey History Channel. I know that you’re coming to grips with the fact that your audience isn’t getting any younger, but shouldn’t you be thinking of ways to diversify your programming without taking a dump on the Greatest Generation? Band Of Bloggers my ASS!
- Is there a more useless continent than Australia? Seriously, can’t think of a SINGLE redeeming quality that Australia brings to the table (save maybe Naomi Watts). The fact that they imported Kristin Cavallari to spice up their MTV Music Awards just proves that the entire nation is devoid of any buzz whatsoevs.
- Oh, New York Times. Sometimes I think you do stupid things just so bloggers like your Uncle Grambo will link to you. At least that’s what I’m hoping. I couldn’t come up with any other reasons to justify the existence of a headline like “DJ AM: His Life, Times, Shoes” running in their Styles section yesterday. That said, propers are due for going to Nick Catchdubs for a choice quote.
- Ever since Acceptable debuted, I’ve kinda been crushing on Jen Kirkman. Let’s just say that I’m buying whatever it is that she’s selling.
- Jeffrey Wells. Read him, know him, love him. This recap of an encounter with Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson is worth the price of admission in and of itself. Even better? There’s no admission price!
- Welcome back, Herbert Kornfeld! It’s been two long years since we last heard from you. Please don’t make it another two years, Zweibel!
Lastly, your Uncle Grambo would like to award a special Medal Of Brilltascity to Ken Paves (pictured below) for convincing Jessica Simpson to dye her hair brown. As Steven Tyler would say, J. Simpson has been lookin’ F-I-N-E Fine ever since discovering what brown can do for her. Burrito supreme! [pics via Egotastic]

Jessica Simpson…I don’t care if so many people hate on her, she’s really quite stunning. They’re just jealous. The brunette look is in her favor, yes.

It’s weird admitting I just got a little bit verklempt when I read that one of my favorite fictional characters of all-time just “died” … RIP, Kornfeld. RIP. Here’s hoping he bequeathed me the Letta Opener O’Death.

I happen to love Australia and all the great music it’s provided over the years. How can you not salute a country that’s given us Crowded House, INXS, George AND Silverchair.

Lest we forget Austrlia’s number 1 export, Crocodile Dundee films? Aside from Crowded House’s reunion this year (which was best), all the items listed haven’t had any buzz in 10+ years. Given that, I’d say Aussies haven’t had much 21st century buzz, especially considering that Neil Finn’s a Kiwi (though he’s always maintained that CH was an Aussie band). Natalie Imbruglia…been 9 years post “Torn”, & she lost all buzz for marrying Silverdouche.
