"Jerry, Mr. Billionaire, I blame. And his show," he said. Yeesh. Someone get this guy a Sentence Construction Ref!
I really wish there were more instances in which I could say "Too bad I wasn't born a Wormald."
Ha, that reminded me of a moment from the Simpsons Beer Baron episode: Rex Banner: [overlooking the city] I'll get you, Beer Baron. Homer: [distant] No, you won't! Rex Banner: Yes, I will.
Whoa, the Navy's official word on this is actually pretty awesome: "The Navy confirms the existence of SEAL Teams 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 and 10. The Navy has never acknowledged the existence of Team 9 while SEAL Team 6, the service's most elite hunter-killer team, is officially called the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group, or DevGru. . . .'We certainly would not request a trademark on a SEAL team that doesn't exist, like SEAL Team 6,' said a Navy official."

I suspect the underlying issue is that we're right in the middle of Passover, in which pizza, sandwiches (Hillel sandwiches excepted, ), and other delicious leavened foods are an abomination. All my conversations with observant friends this week have invoked pizza at least once. By my calculation, this place will probably be Pizzagum by the end of the day.
The Otters vs. Larry Flynt. (I would very much like to see this movie.)
This seriously needs all the upvotes.
Yeah, funny story. Michael Bay on the subject: "We paid for a set of twenty thousand dollars of pearly white teeth—Ben's gonna hate that story—uh, I always like low shots that kinda come right under your chin, just make you a little bit heroic, and he kinda had these baby teeth. So, uh, I told Jerry Bruckheimer, I said, 'God, he's got these baby teeth, Jerry, I don't know what to do.'"
