Nick and Jessica -- It's over



Nick and Jessica officially call it quits. Final the news is out but people have know for months that the two were already broken up. It seems that Jessica is a party girl and Nick is more of a stay at home guy. Let this be a lesson to all you people out there. A good marriage needs a TV crew to follow them everywhere they go. Unless they want to spend time with each other and find out they have nothing in common.

Xbox 360 or Bust



That's right its out and I hope you got yours before the mad rush. Because you are going to have to wait a long time to get your hands on another one. I have been reading reports that the Xbox 360 has been crashing and other problems. If I paid over $400 for and Xbox 360 and it crashes on me? I would lose my mind!

I also heard that people are getting robbed for their Xobx 360s left and right. Its sad that you can't just go to the store and buy something with out the fear of getting robbed. If you really want to get your hands on one you can try EBay. The average price on EBay for an Xbox 360 is about $786. Believe it or not there is a bid for an Xbox 360 going for more then $10,000 on EBay. If you pay more then $10,000 for an Xbox 360. You have to be a complete ass!

Here's a video of an Xbox 360 crashing from them guys over at Xbox-Scene.

Stacy Dash! - Hottest Lady of the Month







The hottest lady of the month is Stacy Dash. She has to be one the most attrative ladies I have ever seen. Man to think that she is 39 and still has the body of a 20 year old is amazeing to me. I know 39 is not old but most 39 year old ladies look....bad. Stacy Dash is always over looked by people and has never been voted as one of People Magazine top 50 beautiful people. What's going on? I hope people start to recognize her for her acting and beauty.

Batman & Catwoman & Power Girl





I have to say, when I saw these two pics I was very impress. Mohammad Haque or Hawk as he like to call himself. Drew both of these pics and posted them on his blog Hawk Studios. Hawk's fans know him from his web comic Applegeeks. Applegeeks is ran by Hawk and his partner and Co-creator Ananth Panagariya, who is the writer. Applegeeks has to be one of the fastest growing web comics I have ever seen. Both these guys work hard and have over a 100 or so issues under their belt.

I have to say I'm very impress by these guys because most "people" I know talk a lot about how they are the best but don't want to put the work in. Then those "people" go on and on about how they are going to do something but never do. I call those "people" quitters and ass****s. They should learn how to shut up and get things done.

Well, back to the matter at hand. Both of these guys are regulars at anime and comic book conventions. These guys are well on their way to becoming very famous and wealthy. But I think they would just settle for making their fans happy. I wish both of them the best. Applegeeks is updated every Monday and Thursday.

Aquaman swims to the WB



That's right Aquaman, is getting his own show on the WB. After the appearance of Aquaman on Smallville, (a show about Superman's younger years has a teen in Smallville discovering his super powers) it seems that the WB as been getting a lot of positive feedback from fans. So, they have decided to give Aquaman his own show. Aquaman?? I mean can the Flash get his own show too. Wait, they did that and Mark Hamill played a supervillain with the same voice he did for the Joker in the 90's animated Batman series which you can now see on Boomerang and for the JLA animated show that's on the Cartoon Network.

Back to the point, Aquaman is a dork of JLA his powers sucks. He talks to all forms of sea life by using telepathy. When did talking to fish become cool? The only cool version of Aquaman is the one on the JLA animated show for the Cartoon Network. They made him cool by making him a darker and the self-righteous king of Atlantis. I have no idea how they are going to sell this show but my guess it will be a mix of Smallvile drama and Baywatch honeys. We will have to wait and see what happens. By the way, if Aquaman can get a show how long till live actions shows of Plastic Man, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, Green Arrow, or Green Lantern. Wait...wait Green Lantern is a good idea has long has its John Stewart and not Hal Jordan. Hal Jordan is a complete ass!
