LOS ANGELES, CA — A reboot of the popular Pirates of the Caribbean film franchise will feature an all-female cast backing into rocks for two hours, says Disney. "Women walk the plank together," a tagline for the film reads, referencing how women should stand together in life — and how they always go to the bathroom together for some reason. The movie is expected to come in under budget thanks to the strategic use of Hollywood's gender pay gap combined with the fact the film only needs one set as the entire film takes place on a ship that has...

Amazing shredding... JK... One of my dear departed Dad's fav's... Mine too.

It's true.

Is anyone watching this show? If so, is anyone else noticing all the singers are lip syncing the songs tonight. I haven't watched AGT in yrs and I happened to see it. I swear they are not really singing live, I'm a semi-trained lip reader as I've had impairment a child. None of the singers matched their songs good enough to hide the lip syncing... I've never noticed this before on any of the current talent shows. Does anyone else notice it?

Thank you Tommy, RIP. Vid at source of course.

Yay!

I'm completely embarrassed by the dismal performance by Dave Roberts and the Dodgers. They'll always be my team but this was disgusting.

Americans may be urged to drink no more than one or two beers weekly as part of stricter new alcohol guidelines. President Biden's alcohol czar, George Koob, the director for the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA), told Dailymail.com that the USDA could change its Alcohol laws to match Canada, where people are advised to drink that drink per week. He said: "If there are health benefits, I think people will start evaluating where we're at (In the US)." Currently, the US recommends that women have up to one bottle of beer, a small glass of wine, or...

There was a time when comedy was free to do or say just about anything as long as it made the audience laugh. Not anymore. The late-night comedy shows are no longer “set-up – the punchline,” they are “complain about the other side – applause line.” They are nightly mini-political conventions so afraid of straying from anything their audience finds agreeable that they’re boring. Same thing with movies and stand-up comedy; they’re all wildly predictable because participants aren’t free, either by fear or choice, to take the ballsy risks that made those professions worthy of admiration. It’s pathetic. But there...

Former Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is warning her supporters that those who oppose her politically are angling to take legal action against her. In a short fundraising note, Lake claimed that “The establishment wants to ARREST ME for” exposing what she has claimed is election fraud in her state. She made the same claim last month in a tweet that contained headlines from online news sources indicating she could be indicted. Advertisement “They want to ARREST me for exposing fraud in the 2022 Election. Now, the AZ Supreme Court has ruled that the very fraud I highlighted has...

ABC stated "it's time to move on" They're not canceling the view like they should, they're canceling Whoopie. I hope it's true.

With a 10-1 win Friday night, the Dodgers notched their 109th victory of the season. If that sounds like a lot, that’s because it is. The Dodgers’ 109-win season is just the ninth instance overall of a team winning that many games, and the first time a National League team has reached such heights since 1909, when the Pirates won 110 games.Postseason success is the ultimate barometer of how a team will be remembered, but regular-season prowess – especially at this level – deserves attention, too.Here are seven facts and stats about the Dodgers reaching a level of winning not...

An ICU nurse suspected of causing a fiery crash in Los Angeles that killed six people and injured eight more has been charged with multiple counts of murder. Nicole Lorrine Linton, 37, was charged with six counts of murder and five counts of gross vehicular manslaughter, prosecutors announced on Monday, according to KTLA.

LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he hoped his team would have seven All-Stars named to the Midsummer Classic. That didn’t turn out to be the case, at least for now, as Freddie Freeman, Julio Urías and Will Smith were left off the team. After Mookie Betts and Trea Turner were named National League starters at their respective positions, pitchers Clayton Kershaw and Tony Gonsolin were announced Sunday as All-Stars to round out the roster. Roberts broke the news to his two pitchers before Sunday’s 11-9 win over the Cubs. “I think that for me, one of the...

Must be heard and seen to really believe. Enjoy. This cat's also a great guitarist from his videos I've watched on YT.
