There is a reason human beings can't jump 8 feet in the air. Yet we humans of all sexes, shapes, sizes and ages are destined to try like moths to a flame. Just give us a trampoline.

Somebody in Florida won the Powerball lottery

So get a nap today, it's back to work with us tomorrow. You won't be missing much of a day anyhoo.

The rumors of our demise were greatly exaggerated.


Time for Jersey City, After Dark

Mayor Healy got guns off the streets, Mayor Fulop will face another scourge...broccoli

Now the police report didn't say if this was broccoli with melted cheese on top because that would probably have a much higher sentence but we do know that broccoli in Jersey City has become the new designer weapon of choice. Trendsetter Themyra Pridgen was booked when after a dispute with her adult daughter, she allegedly threw hot water and broccoli at her. See there, perfectly good broccoli used as a cudgel.

We don't want to get hit with broccoli Mr. Fulop. Seriously. We know you have other priorities but we just can't be walking down JFK going to Journal Square and have angry florets suddenly thrown in our faces. We can't be walking our dogs in Hamilton Park and be pelted with stalks.

Johnny's advice? Put a top man on it on day one. We have just the guy...

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with ELVIS COSTELLO AND THE ATTRACTIONS!

1979 beckons us and we must answer. Elvis Costello and the Attractions trying to look cool (well they're always cool) lip synching their way through the brilliant 'Oliver's Army' on Top of the Pops. Who was that Aqua Velva introducing the band anyway?

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with LUSCIOUS JACKSON!

Luscious is what we're all about tonight kids. Luscious was what this band was all about too, actually taking their name from a former NBA player of the same name. An FM radio standard back in 1997, here's Luscious Jackson with 'Naked Eye'

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with DIGITAL UNDERGROUND!

And since Digital Underground was a one-hit wonder back in the late 80's you already have a pretty good idea what's coming your way. Digital Underground putting the wraps on yet another Music Series with 'The Humpty Dance'

You know those sappy porch stoop ads politicians running for office make? Anthony Weiner made one yesterday...

Which would indicated Anthony's Weiner is going to throw his hat into the NYC mayoral race. We've seen and heard he'd be currently polling second behind Count Chocula (Christine Quinn) should he decide to run. We think this home spun over-hackneyed premise of an ad that NBC New York stumbled upon yesterday tells you all you need to know, Weiner is going to announce he's in.

Your thoughts on second chances and all that dear readers?
