I personally loved Reba McEntire's last show Reba, and I'm excited to see her new show Malibu Country
Also this SNL Digital Short from The Lonely Island was a favorite of mine. It's slightly risque, as you would expect from The Digital Shorts but Kenan Thompson as Reba is too funny.
This may not be the BEST MAN but he is a great man for video taping this. Watch as this Best Man convinces this groom he is about to bungee jump blindfolded. #hattip Click the video below.
A Wisconsin man called police after one of his favorite restaurants refused to keep feeding him, even though it was "All You Can Eat." You can see the story here from WTMJ-TV:
I'm TOTALLY on his side. I'm not proud of it, but growing up my mentality with "All-You-Can-Eat" was that I wanted to be the customer that the company lost money on. We didn't have much money growing up, so I always wanted to at least get my money's worth.
The All-You-Can-Eat business model works because you make LOTS of money on a few people and SOME money on most people. It also includes the fact that you're going to lose money on a few customers.
I don't go in and try and "get my money's worth" anymore - I try and stop eating when I'm full. But in general if you're going to advertise it's "All You Can Eat," then it should be. Even if you have to add and asterisk that says "*within one hour" or something like that.
If you can't convince your drunk friend not to do something stupid, do the next best thing and film it
This woman has chosen a questionable drinking spot after having too many pints at the pub. Enjoy!

Emily, a single mom, kicked off her search for TV love last night on the Bachelorette. Should you hate on her? No, and here are 3 reasons why should should skip the heaping glass of Hateorade.
1. The EGG guy. Come on really? Dude presented her with an egg and said he was going to carry it during the whole show. What a skeeze ball. Althought, I guess the whole egg thing is better than saying what he really wanted to say. "Hi, I want to wear your skin as a swimsuit."
2. The guys who toss their kids at her. "I have a kid too!" That is a creepy reason to date anyone.
3. Everyone who keeps saying "3rd times a charm!" - They keep talking about the fact Emily has had 2 failed engagments so far. Come on, do you think she really needs to hear that all the time?

It looks like we are one step closer to my vision of a world ruled by intellegent elephants. . .
or as I like to call it Planet of the Elephants!
One amazing elephant at The National Zoo loves to play music, harmonica in particular.
Shanthi the elephant is "musically inclined" according to Elephant Keeper Debbie Flinkman and The Associated Press.
She writes all her own music and plays even when no one is around.
I think we need some drums, maybe a banjo and a fiddle and a singer with a voice of gold and a love of elephants.
Who's with me? Could it be the greatest band ever!? What do you think? Any ideas for band names?
Glamor magazine put together a NEW list of 30 things we should know before we're 30 and 30 things we should have. I have to say, Glamor did a decent job of updating this ongoing list. The big one - I think we should know by 30 if we want kids or not so we can start planning. And if we don't want them and you DO...then there's another issue.
Here are some of the highlights. See the full list here.
By 30, you should have:
Something perfect to wear if the employer or man of your dreams wants to see you in an hour. - OR - I dress you don't hate.
A past juicy enough that you're looking forward to retelling it in your old age. - BINGO
One friend who always makes you laugh and one who lets you cry.
By 30 we should know:
How you feel about having kids. - CHECK
How to quit a job, break up with a man, and confront a friend with-out ruining the friendship. - CHECK
Men carry a lot of stuff these days, phones , tablets, documents, snacks, fire starting implements,
first aid equipment, bottles of 5 hour energy.
Our Dads and Grandads could carry briefcases and wear fedoras. Even Batman has his utility belt.
Man has spent decades trying to find socially acceptable means of carrying essential equipment
from backpacks to fanny packs to the much maligned european men's carry-all.
I myself carry a laptop case that has no computer in it, instead its full of papers, pens, markers, gum,
snack food crumbs and a book to read on the bus (its Game of Thrones right now), and I hold my head high.
I say if its good enough for Indiana Jones, its good enough for me.
So I ask, can a Man Purse be Manly?
Or should a man be able to fit all he needs into his jean pockets and the folds of his wallet?
Let me know and comment below!
According to The Boot last Friday (May 11th) Lady Antebellum took to the stage red solo cups in hand and performed their own version of the Toby Keith party anthem. Lady A was joined on stage by the Warren Brothers who helped pen the hit song. The concert was held at Tampa, Florida's oddly named 1-800-ASK-GARY Amphitheatre. See the video below. . .
