    @Wes Kendrick: it's fodder, not journalism. if anyone wants to listen or not, it's up to them. Deadspin didn't start it, and it won't end it. Lighten up.

    I mentioned this last night, but I got a positive money line on a Super Bowl bet of both teams making a FG longer than 33 yards. Good bet, or the best bet?

    @Rainbow Bright: that would require a run into town, for which I am a few too many Appleton & Dr. Pepper's and bowls deep for. I may just have to go the old school route with cold water splashes and porn deprivation.

    So I went to see Gran Torino today (I'm half asian) with family, including my asian mom. I thought it would be humorous to subject her to all of the asian racial epitaphs spewing from Eastwood's mouth. Somehow though, she didn't take any offense. Fuckin' gook.

    @Shakey: I'm a white guy. But i wonder, if the neighbors had been black, would people have taken offense to it? Seems that the movie has avoided racial criticism. I wonder if that would be the case had the people been black.

    @Back to Azian Zero: Yeah, I grew up in West Philadelphia and now I'm in the suburbs and I've never heard someone say the word. I've heard chink but not gook or 'zipperhead'. I was probably too sheltered.

    @MrRedDevil: They had the token black kids on a corner scene, but he didn't use any real bad slurs there. Definitely if the neighbors had been black it would have been destroyed in the presses. Of course, with asians Eastwood could take offense to their food, traditions, and language. More material I guess.

    So I'm just searching through recently recorded cover songs (an interest of mine), and I find this, an excellent take on the quality track from a pretty good Reebok commercial:

    So with the recent successes of musician biopics such as Walk the Line and Ray , why haven't we seen one yet for John Lennon? Is it just a matter of nobody having the cojones to attempt it, or what? I can't think of another musician more deserving a full-length feature, but I also acknowledge it would be hard to pull off. Put in the right hands, it could be great. listen up, Hollywood.
