Is this funny?

I honestly can't tell if this is funny or not. I just watched it and didn't crack a smile, but maybe that's just because nothing will ever compare to the original cast. It seems like a decent concept, but it's beyond me so I'm going to leave this one up to the viewers.

Vote 1 star for this sucked more than Angelina, or 5 stars for this was as cool as Pauly D's blowout

Leighton Meester vs. Minka Kelly

There has been a recent stir about one of the Daily Dip pictures I posted last week, Leighton Meester.  Leighton seems to be identical to Derek Jeter's sweetie, Minka Kelly.  Clearly they came from the same womb and the Doctor genetically modified their DNA to put Leighton's birth on hold for 8 years to totally screw with bloggers minds like myself.  Here's the picture I first posted, which I still believe is Leighton...

This is an urgent matter that needs to be solved, so leave your comments/opinions on which broad is which, below in the comment section.  

"Body Language Remix"- Jesse McCartney ft. T-Pain

I'm using my one "No Homo" call for the day on this one. I know this song is old news by now, but I resisted downloaded it until now for the sole reason it was Jesse McCartney. Well, I gave in as you can tell and I'll admit it's still pretty fresh.

"Fool For Love"- B.O.B. ft. Charles Hamilton

Charles Hamilton has been rather disappointing in my opinion since his first single, "Brooklyn Girls", was released back in '08. The track set a high standard for the 'Pinkest rapper in the game', leaving me with such high expectations for the young artist. Fortunately, lately he has had some solid tracks and this one with B.O.B. is heating up NBA jam style. Get it while you can suckaz!

"All I Do Is Win"- DJ Khaled ft. Luda, T-Pain, Rick Ross, & Snoop

Holy sheep shit this song is a show stoppahhhhhhh!

Who Knew This Was Called The Ballcock?

So I'm watching Cash Cab this morning and Big Ben Baily ask's the contestants what the device is called in a toilet that controls flushing and filling the tank.  Still half asleep, I hear the answer is "Ballcock", and immediately jump out of bed and Ask Jeeves if this was a joke.  Sure enough, Cash Cab doesn't lie and this here is known as the "Ballcock"!  It's quite possible this is common knowledge, but I don't have a background in plumbing or shitters, so if you knew this just sit back and enjoy the ride anyways!  
So now that Jeeves confirmed this was indeed the Ballcock, I moved on to my next recognized source, Wikipedia. 
"A ballcock (also balltap or float valve) is a mechanism for filling water tanks, such as those found in flush toilets, while avoiding overflow. It was invented by Thomas Crapper."
Timeout, I've just struck gold for the second time in a matter of 5 minutes.  I suppose this is where the term, "I gotta take a crap" originated?  So from here I dug up some dirt on Mr. Crapper.
"Thomas P. Crapper (baptised 28 September 1836 - died 27 January 1910) was a plumber who founded Thomas Crapper & Co. Ltd. in London. Contrary to widespread misconceptions, Crapper did not invent the toilet. He did, however, do much to increase the popularity of the toilet, and did develop some important related inventions, such as the ballcock." 
At this point I'm just appauled at the life accomplishments of Sir Thomas Crapper.  Dude was the SHIT!(no pun intended)  Wiki then goes on to add how Crapper advertised his business on "Manholes", which are the top openings to an underground utility vault.
"The manhole covers with Crapper's company's name on them in Westminster Abbey are now a minor tourist attraction." 
Could Wikipedia fit any other poop innuendo's into this tale?  Moral of the story, Thomas Crapper is the most underrated plumber/industrialist in the history of poop.  Let's take a minute and pour out some liquor for this dude.  Amen!

Airbud: GoldenGun Retriever Shoots Hunter Dude with Shotgun

"(CBS)  A hunter is recovering from non-life threatening injuries after being shot by his dog on Saturday.

The Merced County Sheriff's Department said the 53-year-old man was hunting with a partner off Highway 152 near Los Banos when he set down his shotgun to retrieve his decoy ducks.

The shotgun was loaded but the safety was on, according to authorities.

The victim was about 15 yards away, retrieving his decoys, when his female black Labrador retriever stepped on the gun.

Authorities said the dog disengaged the safety and hit the trigger at the same time, firing a shell with #2 shot. The man was struck in on the left side of his upper back.

The man was treated and released at the hospital the same day. "
So much for the saying, "Dog's are a man's best friend" huh?  This dog went complete Meet the Parents style on this dude and used his disposable thumbs to rip a shotty at his owner! Since the man faces non-life threatening injuries, I think I have to safely side with the dog in this situation.  It's common knowledge that Black Labs are deadly from close range and clearly the hunter must have tried to show up this dog earlier in the day, which is most likely what set the pup off.  So goes the old saying, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" because clearly this dog has potential to work his way up the ranks, join the special ops, and blaze the enemy up with a fresh cut RCP90.  Pup City in the Hizzy!
