Kobe!
As you may have heard Kobe Bryant was named NBA MVP yesterday, his first MVP award. It took him 12 years and a few hardships...errr rapings, but he is deserving. Kobe has been my favorite player to watch the last couple years, because he can do things I have never seen done on the court. Now I know you cannot compare Kobe to Jordan but he is starting to put himself in this league. It is looking like he could win his 4th championship and 6th first team all-defensive team award. Jordan of course has 6 rings and 9 first team defensive selections which is ridiculous. He also was the finals MVP 6 times which nobody will ever beat. Still have had a chance to watch both play a lot and there are two things Kobe can do better than Jordan. He is a better ball handler and better 3 point shooter. So what I am trying to say is no he is not better than Jordan, but he is the only one that is going to get close, so enjoy watching one of the games best! I am hoping for first: A Kobe vs Chris Paul Bryant Western Conference Final, and then Kobe against either Lebron or KG in the finals. Either way I think the Lakers win and he proves the award was handed to the right person. Check Kobe jump over an Aston Martin below.
More sick Kobe!

Ironman Made What? 108 Million Your Fucking Kidding Right?
I don't understand what is going on in this country right now especially when it comes to America's taste in movies. The basic recipe in Hollywood is buy a Marvel comic book, and turn it into a movie. Wow that is genius. Now don't get me wrong, I enjoyed comics as a child, and I even enjoyed these films when they first started coming out, but come on. Does anyone want to do anything original anymore. With the success of films like Juno, There Will Be Blood, and No Country for Old Men, I thought this year we would start to more and more original movies. I guess I was wrong. What is even worse is because these films are successful the studios can land anyone they want to play the leads. See Christian Bale as Batman or Ed Norton as the new Hulk. These are some of my favorite actors in some of there worst roles. I usually go and see these movies as well, and end up disappointed. The last Super Hero movie I enjoyed was the first Spiderman, and that is because Willem Dafoe is bad ass! Still I go pay $8 and am disappointed, so I wanted to do a little ode, to the top 5 lamest super heroes. I am sure I will be breaking some of my readers hearts, but this madness needs to stop.
#5) Batman- Yes the caped crusader. Or is that Darkwing Duck. Anyways Batman is little more than Tim Allen from Tool Time with a mask. He possesses no super power except he is angry about the death of his parents and he vows to revenge them, by killing the scum of Gotham. Wait a minute we learned from the last movie that he also has the super power of being scared of nothing because he was able to like Bats again. How fucking stupid is that. Here is to the Joker whoopin Batman's Ass. Like one of my favorite songs (below)
#4) Superman- This reason Superman is lame isn't because his powers suck, his super powers are fucking awesome. However how about a little effort on the costume. Seriously, all Clark Kent does, is take off his glasses and a suit and underneath he has the little blue suit, which is made from full spandex. See here for what spandex can do to a man. Would it have been that hard to give him a mask? Are we that stupid that we cannot figure out who this guy is without his fucking glasses?
#3)The Punisher- I am pretty sure, when he lost his family to the evil drug lords that wear striped costumes. huh? He should of just turned to the bottle. Nope instead he decides to go buy a bunch of guns and seek revenge. At least he could have really good eye sight like the guy from shoot em up. Nope he is just a regular guy who knows how to use a gun. I wouldn't even call him a super hero, more like Orenthal James Simpson.
#2)Spiderman- I used to think Spiderman was the best Superhero, well maybe Magneto. However after Toby McGuire played him in the last three movies, my thoughts have completely changed. I wouldn't even want a little queer like that saving my life. That's right I would rather die than be saved by Toby McGuire.
#1)Captain Planet- Those who know me, know that I fucking cannot stand hippies, and this is what happens when a hippy gets super powers. I mean I kind of like that he is ultimately saving everyone by stopping people from destroying the earth. However do we really need to kill everyone that has ever threw the top of a 6 pack into the ocean. Stick to smoking weed hippie, leave the saving lives to real super heroes.

Movie Review: Lars and the Real Girl
This film came highly recommended by my cousin Tim and his wife, who I respect there movie opinions so much. Still when I picked up the box I had some skepticism that this movie was going to blow. Mainly that skepticism was based on the ridiculous story. Lars, played by Ryan Gosling, has lost both of his parents and would be considered a classic introvert. He stays to himself and lives in the garage of his brother and sisters home which is actually the home of his deceased family. Lars has never felt a connection anything like the one he lost with his parents and falls in love with a sex doll in which he names Bianca. Like I said this is a crazy idea for a movie, yet I found myself falling in love with everything about this film.
The story no matter how absurd it is actually takes on some pretty heavy material in a rather light way just like another recent favorite of mine Juno. Gosling, is strickened with pain and fears of further abandonment after his parents have deceased. His brother, played by up and coming actor Paul Schneider, loves him, but quickly left after the death of his parents, because of this his relationship with Lars is shattered. His sister in law played by Emily Mortimer, is trying to help Lars by showing that he is loved and that her and her husband care for Lars deeply. Gosling is magnificent once again. He spends a lot of time on screen with just a doll, yet the interaction he shares is wonderful. He does a great job showing the pain inside of himself through his interactions with others and when Bianca shows up at his door, you can actually see him fall in love with her.
The best parts of this movie, are when the town rallies together to support Lars and his doll girl friend. They take Bianca in as someone that has grown up in the town, and Bianca actually becomes a loved person, because the town realizes that this is how Lars is coping with the loss of his parents. Another wonderful character in this movie is Lars coworker, Margo, played by Khelli Garner. She has a crush on Lars from the start of this movie, but Lars is in no position to be in a healthy relationship, because he has completely closed himself off from interaction with real people. As Lars relationship with Bianca progresses he starts opening up to Margo, and you see him finally finding what he has desperately been looking for. Some one to be there for him! Lars as a character truly transforms in this movie and it makes you feel good. On one side we are sad to see Bianca “die” but because of this Lars is healed and can go on his way.
I think there is so much you can take out of this movie. Bianca was definitely Lars security blanket. He needed her to cope with his day-to-day life. Once he was able to get rid of that security blanket, he found some closure with the rest of the things that were going on in his life. He was able to connect with his brother again, he was able to put himself in social settings, and he was able to see that so many people cared about him. I think everyone will take something a little different from this movie and that’s what makes it great. Throw in wonderful performances from just about everyone in it and I will say it is definitely one of the most underrated films I have seen in a long time. Check it out!

If you are interested...
This is a response I got from my congresswoman in regards to escalating gas prices. I thought a few things were interesting. Her thoughts on oil companies price gouging is interesting, because I do believe that during a time of emergency a president can stop price gouging and set prices at what he believes is fair market value. This would definately be up for Constitutional debate, but our current energy crises, could conceivably fall under the President's police powers. Therefore if we continue to rage war with the rest of the middle east, maybe a new president will be able to stop prices from continuing to sky rocket, at least temporarily.
Basically the response was what I expected. She gave me the run around, but at least it was a response. Basically that is all I wanted to hear. Let me know your thoughts?

Dear Mr. Browne:
Thank you for contacting me regarding high gas prices. It is good to hear from you, and I apologize for the delay in my response.
I appreciate knowing your concerns regarding high gasoline costs. I share your frustrations with the high price of gasoline, oil, and other fuels. I realize the impact the costs have on Wisconsin families and businesses that rely on gasoline to get them to work or that rely on natural gas to heat their homes.
Many have expressed concern that oil companies are price gouging and excessively profiting off America's misfortune. As you know, while American consumers have encountered high prices at the pumps, oil companies have been earning record-breaking profits. Last year, Exxon Mobil's fourth quarter profit rose to $10.7 billion, bringing their annual profit to over $36 billion. You will be interested to know that I recently sent a letter to President Bush urging him to call oil executives to account for the unsustainably high price of gasoline. I am concerned that some of the costs may be due to excess profit-taking by the gasoline industry. As you may know, there is currently no federal law banning price gouging.
To remedy this situation, I am a cosponsor of the Federal Price Gouging Prevention Act, H.R. 1252. This bill makes price gouging for necessary goods and services, such as gasoline, during natural disasters and other "energy emergencies" illegal. This bill authorizes the President to designate a period of time as an energy emergency, which outlaws price gouging during this time. You may be interested to know that I recently joined 284 of my colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives in passing this bill by a vote of 284 to 141. This bill is currently awaiting further action in the U.S. Senate. Please know that I will keep your thoughts as I continue to support measures which prevent oil and gas vendors from holding consumers hostage with high prices during a time of national emergency.
Additionally, I believe we can lower the cost of gas by exploring alternative, renewable sources for energy. For this reason, I support several bills which lower our dependence on foreign oil, reduce our consumption of fossil fuels, and increase our fuel efficiency. I believe that if approach the problem of high gas prices by ensuring that gas companies are not engaging in unfair business practices as well as exploring and implementing alternative, renewable options we will all benefit from lower gas prices and a healthier environment. Please know that I will keep your thoughts in mind regarding high gas prices as I continue to support measures which will lower the cost of energy.
Again, thank you for sharing your views. Your opinion matters to me. If I can be of service to you in any other way, please do not hesitate to let me know. As a security precaution, all mail sent to Congress is first irradiated. This process causes significant delays.
