Takeovers!
Jack White pleads guilty to assault & battery on Tuesday. White gave his account of what led to the fight. He said he hadn't seen Stollsteimer in a long time but had heard that he had made some allegations against him in the press and to mutual acquaintances.
"I went up to ask him to say it to me face to face," White said.
He said Stollsteimer ignored him so White spit (splat!) at him and they started fighting. He said Stollsteimer landed on his hand (bop!), which he had recently injured in a car accident. White said he then punched (bam! zoom! straight to the moon!) Stollsteimer in the face a couple of times (bam! 10x). White must pay a $500 fine, plus $250 in court fees.

Kristie Alley to be replaced by 'Queer Eye' guy Thom Filicia for Pier 1 Imports campaign. Poor Kristie. She can't act and now no more cash flow since she just got the boot. It's all downhill from there. (link NY Times)
We still cannot understand the popularity of Movieoke.Here's a snippet from this Newsday article: "Movieoke allows regular folks to tap into their inner artist (or their inner ham) - in this case, "acting" in their favorite movie while the real thing plays on an 8-foot screen behind them (and on a small monitor in front of them, so they can read the subtitles for their lines)." Alright, will someone please tell us why? On a random Wednesday night (not tonight), we might get our arses down to Den of Cin and witness this event ourselves. Note: WE WILL NOT PARTICIPATE!
