Take it from Snee: What happened to Vegas?

Until this weekend, Las Vegas was mythical. It was a magical place where movie plots really happened, booze flowed like water and the women made the coeds at FSU look like junior prom material.

After visiting, I can honestly say that all of the above is truly mythical about Vegas, but only in that it’s either bull#### or not like that anymore.

That’s not to say Vegas isn’t fun …

… It’s just a different kind of fun. More pedestrian, less — well, read on after the jump for elaboration. Continue reading Take it from Snee: What happened to Vegas?

We’re being invaded!

We’re being invaded! Size may not matter in the animal kingdom, but quantity sure as shoot does.

A town in California is being invaded by a mass of tiny toads. Unchallenged by natural predators, the population blew up exponentially. Oh sure, you might think that something the size of a quarter isn’t that bad, but wait until the end of summer when the toads are now the size of a fist.

There’s only one solution-take care of the problem now. Eradicate them all.

Back to the ol’ drawing board

Well, it looks like our plan to appease Osama bin Laden by electing a secret Muslim has failed.

Bin Laden rolled out his greatest hits (presumably to chime in on I Love the War on Terror: 2003), indicating that the United States — the President in particular — is responsible for the Muslim world frowning on his shenanigans.

Blaming the U.S. president for his woes? Maybe he is turning American after all!

Israeli television is very serious business

Here at SG, there are few things we don’t find humor in–recent tragedies, rape, the Boston Red Sox–and add to that list assault. Nope, assault is just not funny in the least.

In Israel, a former television star got really upset with executives who shot down his best chance for a big time comeback. He was so upset about it that he hired some thugs to rough them up. Two men and a woman ended up getting beaten up. His lawyer (notice how we’re not making jokes about a story about Jews involving the media and lawyers) of course is denying that anything like that happened.

Why are we telling you all this?

His name is Dudu Topaz. Yes, Dudu. Israel had a huge ratings getter with a first name of Dudu.

Dudu.
