If you watch "The Late Show With David Letterman" you know that every night they cook up a "Top Ten" list which is normally pretty hilarlious. Last night, the list was titled "Top Ten New York Giants Excuses" in the wake of the teams 28 point meltdown against the Eagles this past weekend. I decided to post the vid from last night's show here just to give a little laugh to those who need it. Enjoy!

I was sad to hear that the finale of Little People Big World was December 6. I couldn't watch it because I didn't have a TV in my room over at school and, quite frankly, I didn't know it would come to an end this fast.
Now I, like a lot of LPBW fans, are asking did TLC pull the plug on the show or was it the family's decision? Personally, when you have a show like that which was so popular with viewers and just stop it abruptly, one could only think if the network pulled the plug.
Also, when reading their Twitter account, TLC had one tweet about the finale, saying "Join us as we say goodbye to the Roloffs." In addition to this, it was reported that TLC broke the news to Matt Roloff (the dad) and was told to "spin it however he wanted."
On the other hand, the kids are getting older and the family may be tired of doing the shows and having cameras follow them around everywhere. Either way, E! Online reported that TLC pulled the plug on the show. If this is true, the network has lost a great show.
I would rather watch that any day than that Kate Plus 8 or The Little Couple. It's a shame that good shows like this get dumped for boring, and quite terrible shows. I may over think somethings, but if this is true, TLC got some problems!

P.S. I am still watching Castle (ABC hasn't gotten rid of that yet) and I'm kind of liking this new show called Downsized which follows a blended family of nine who used to live in the lap of luxury but now are living on a day-to-day budget. It's pretty fascinating to see a real-life story of the economic problems we face in our country.
You can read E! Online's take of the alleged cancellation of the show here.

The movie, "Yogi Bear" hits theaters today and I saw this vid while looking at the trailer. It shows the traffic guy for WKRC in Cincinatti doing this segment called "Dance Party Friday" with Yogi Bear and Boo Boo, who are played by Dan Aykroyd and Justin Timberlake in the movie. I don't know who this guy is more obsessed with: Yogi Bear or Justin Timberlake. Just watch...

I couldn't decide, so I chose both the Metrodome (home of the Minnesota Vikings) and the Carolina Panthers as my Oops Award winners this week...
Metrodome
I hated to see the roof collapse like it did but my question is, why would you have an inflatable roof on a building in a place that gets 100ft of snow each year? I mean I know the Metrodome's been around before, but this is not the first time the roof has collapsed. You would think they learned their lesson...apparently not!
Carolina Panthers
What's there to say? They're 1-12, trusting a rookie QB who is struggling (understandably) and they can't throw the ball worth crap. Coach John Fox said the team is a "work in progress". How when they're 1-12? I don't call that a work in progress I call it...well I don't know what to call it!

As you've seen, I've been talking a lot lately about the Westboro Baptist Church group of people who claim they are followers of Christ but yet spread a message of hate to anyone who blasphemes God according to what they are taught.They did show up today to protest the funeral of Elizabeth Edwards. As if her family needs any more grief and sorrow! However, the good of God one out as many other gathered for a counter-protest which eventually made the group give up their own protest. In an article from ABC11, the NC Council of Churches released a statement saying:
"The protesters from Kansas have come many miles to spread their hatred at Elizabeth Edwards’ memorial service. Let us be clear: the Bible calls us to kindness and respect for one another, and Jesus Christ preached throughout his life that we should love one another. The protesters' appalling and repeated violation of the sacred services by which we honor our dead, along with their representation of themselves as messengers of Christ, are offensive and misrepresent Christian faith."
You know, instead of criticizing them 24/7 (although that's what they deserve) we need to pray for them as Christians. I find it so hard to overlook their actions without being so filled with anger, but that's their MO. They want us to be mad and for their protests to be covered in the media. If we let this happen, they win. We can't let their vile and un-Godly message of hate engulf us.

I saw this review from at Christianity Today about "Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader." The writer said this particular adaptation "disappointingly lacked the awe and wonder of the book." My question to him is: did you see it in 3D? I normally don't see movies on the day they hit theaters but I did see this one Friday in 3D. The effect wasn't as great as in animated movies (but that happens with most 3D live action films) and seeing it in 3D did make you feel like you were apart of the action. Breimeier mainly compares the film to the book itself and criticizes the movie for not taking the time for "character development." He also seemed to believe that the movie kind of rushed along the plot laid out by the book. Honestly, you can't directly compare the two because we all know a film adpatation of a book will never be the same as the book itself. I thought the movie was fine just the way it was. I'm not a big fan of those long and drawn out movies that last 4 or 5 hours. "Narnia" lasted about 2 hours which was fine for me.
Overall, I really liked the new "Narnia" flick. I especially liked how it was in 3D and there was kind an unexpected surprise of who would save the Dawn Treader crew and all Narnians from the evil that lurked on Dark Island. I won't say anymore cause that would give the whole point of the movie away. We also are introduced to a new character, Eustice, who is the cousin of Edmund and Lucy and a flat out crybaby. He does learn a valuable lesson at the end, though (once again I don't want to give too much away). "Dawn Treader" is definitely worth the money to see!

Since it's the middle of the shopping season (or therabouts) I thought I would find an Oops Award winner centered around a hot shopping item: the new Xbox 360. I saw this vid of some video game buffs at a convention checking out the new 360. What the one guy in the plaid shirt does is just boneheaded! The vid is entitled "New Xbox 360 Destroys Discs!" but the guy should have known this happened with the original Xbox 360 too (I know from experience). Just watch...
