Three plus two dads to unite in megafilm.

Paramount Pictures has announced that the stars of the 80s comedy film "Three Men and a Baby" are to team up with the stars of 80s sitcom "My Two Dads" in a mega-dad movie. Steve Guttenberg, Ted Danson and Tom Selleck from "Three Men and a Baby" and the later sequel "Three Men and a Little Lady" will be joined by Paul Reiser and Greg Evigan from "My Two Dads" along with Robin Weisman who played toddler Mary in the former films and Staci Keanan as Nicole Bradford from the latter show.


The plot will see five retiring dads moving in together to be looked after by Mary and Nancy, who are now hot twenty-something step sisters. There is also a fun twist as both girls are very promiscuous in their lives and fall preganant during the film - but who is the father? Up to thirty men will be lined up as possibilities! The film, to be entitled "Five Men and their Two Ladies" will be released in November.

Confusion as studio announces Matt Damon will star in upcoming The Golden Girls movie.

Widespread confusion has surrounded the announcement by Buena Vista studios that the upcoming The Golden Girls movie, based on the iconinc 80s TV comedy series, will star Matt Damon.


Commenting on the decision, the sudio stated "Obviously, the original format needed to be updated for the big screen. Matt Damon will star as the son of Golden Girl Dorothy. He will live with the daughter of the character Blanche and the ensuing sparks will be the focus of the film, which will be set in the future." It remains unclear whether the original characters, four elderly women who decide to live together in Miami, will appear in the movie at all. However, Buena Vista has confirmed that the original stars will not be involved, something made more final with the recent death of Dorothy Zbornak actress Bea Arthur.

Golden Girls fans have stated that they are "appalled" at the changes to the format.

R.I.P. anti-intellectualism.

All the major US networks (except Fox) clear their prime-time schedules to broadcast an hour-long live Q&A session with a former constitutional law professor who discusses a number of complex issues in great detail and also warns people to wash their hands to prevent the spread of Swine Flu!


I guess the Temptation Island era is over.

Diego Serna: The Second Coming

In the past two weeks Miami FC has been the revelation of USL. A team that came out of the starting blocks with only weeks of preparation yet their showing so far has been impressive. The one man that stands out the most in this team is Diego Serna. This player, at the twilight of his career has shown that he still has what it takes to play at a high level and I was lucky he granted me a few moments of his time.

Uncle Ed: I see you continue playing with number 17 , how do you see the team so far?
Diego Serna: It's a tranquil team, a noble team, a team that you have to guide due to the inexperience of a few players who are playing at this level for the first time. I think the number 17 is an important number for me as it continues the tradition I left behind with the Miami Fusion.
Uncle Ed: Yes, I understand and I have noticed many of the people are coming to the games because of that history that the Miami Fusion left behind (Particularly that final year 2001 with the best record in the league)
Which of the players on the team today do you think is an exciting player to play with?
Diego Serna: I like Leo Inacio Nunes who is a Brazilian player who handles the ball very well, he is a man that can play in a small area and who has a subtle touch. Orlando Bueso is another one who we know playing locally with Cinco Estrellas; he is a small player with an innate ability with the ball and good rhythm and from there on there are a number of players who in the short while I have worked with them have shown very interesting things.
Uncle Ed: What is your favorite Cuban food?
Diego Serna: Well, pinto beans and Pollo Tropical is one of the things I like the most! [Laughs]Uncle Ed: Do you have a message for The Ultras and Miami FC Fans in general?
Diego Serna: To all those people out there that love Soccer its time to support our Soccer team. Miami and Southern Florida is staying without Soccer, this is the only team we have and I'm in this team because I love Soccer and I love this game and I want to invite everyone, be it Sunday or Saturday however the calendar of the team is arranged. What we are doing now is building for the future and the years to come, we are not going to do what happened with Miami Fusion. We want to build this team for South Florida and the people who love Soccer like the Hondurans, Colombians, Brazilians, Argentinians, everyone needs to support Soccer and this is the time and this is the team. I want the fans to be a little patient with us and give us the opportunity to come to the games and get to know us. The fact that the fans come to the stadium it motivates the players and motivates the front office to continue to invest in the team. So please come out, we want to have a great team with world class stars! All pictures by Victor Palkanínec

Reports: Cheney, Rumsfeld arrested in D.C. park for "lewd conduct."

Reports have surfaced that former Vice President Dick Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld were arrested on Tuesday in a Washington D.C. park for "lewd conduct." According to several witnesses, the two men disappeared into some nearby bushes carrying various pictures and materials related to 9/11, a strange white powder and several toy tanks. Police were called after visitors to the park heard unusual sounds coming from their location, just a few miles from the White House.

D.C. police are refusing to confirm the incident, and have denied reports that the toy tanks, white powder and 9/11 materials were being used, as has been suggested by some witnesses, for sexual purposes. Representatives for the two men have declined to comment other than dismissing the story as "overblown nonsense."

Rhinos hurt the Blues, Southern Legion has new website, pictures and more

The Rochester Raging Rhinos ended Miami FC's winning streak with a 2-1 victory at Lockhart Stadium. I wasn't able to attend this game but knowing Leo Inacio was hurt and seeing Diego Serna getting a Red vs Montreal it was apparent this was going to be an up hill battle. South Florida fans can rest assured we have a team that is still up in the standings and will have both players ready for the next game Saturday May 2 against the Charleston Battery at Lockhart Stadium. Be sure to go to http://www.miamifc.com/ for ticket info or call: 305-728-2606

"Is that rascal Jeeves ill again?"

Oui Oui! Miami Defeats Montreal 2-1

Miami FC remain undefeated after last nights victory over the Montreal Impact by 2-1 on goals by Serna (penalty) and Leo Inacio. Gjertsen scored for Montreal.
The Miami Herald reports a very low attendance but there must be a mistake, it looked like at least 3 thousand out there as Miami FC played for the first time at FIU stadium.
Montreal dictated play in the first half and parts of the second but it is goals that win games and the rowdy Miami Ultras never ceased to chant and sing for their team.
"I am very happy with the players, with the work they put in the last twenty days, for this team to come out and win their first games is very impressive. It's like the Miami FC jersey is their second skin" said head coach Zinho on the Miami FC site
Miami will be without star forward Diego Serna for their game vs the Rochester Raging Rhinos after he was ejected after receiving a second yellow at the end of the game.
South Florida fans need to go out and support Miami FC as they play vs the Rhinos at Lockhart Stadium this Sunday April 26 at 6pm. We need everyone out there!
Vamos Miami!

President Bush expressed delight at the news exclaiming "This is a real honor...and no, I won't be bringing back Futurama.

Pop star Madonna has said she is "horrified and appalled" by the news that Rubina Ali, the 9 year-old star of the recent film Slumdog Millionaire is not being put up for sale by her father Rafiq Qureshi.

Pictures: Miami FC vs Cleveland and a Great Blog by Reuters

As mentioned over on the Miami Ultras site, Simon Evans of Reuters wrote a great blog about his experience at Lockhart Stadium on Saturday. Simon refers to the ambiance at the game:

"It was noisy and fun. It was a proper football crowd and much as I enjoy the NFL and NBA experience I didn’t miss the loud musical interludes, the cheerleaders or the constant time-outs."

Is Dick Cheney a sleeper cell?

Ok, so he isn't dark skinned and his middle name isn't Hussein, but consider this:

In 1990, Dick Cheney (Then Defense Secretary under Bush Sr.) helped, with the aid of either faked or non-existent satellite imagery showing a massive troop build up on the Iraqi-Saudi border, to persuade that country that Iraq was about to invade it. So, the government there relented and let American troops into the Muslim holy land. Lots of people got really upset about that including one Osama Bin Laden.

Only later did the media discover that the whole "troop buildup" and "imminent post-Kuwait Saudi invasion" was a lie. See here or just Google "Cheney fake satellite Iraq."


Anyway, flash forward 11 years and you get 9/11. Was Cheney (now having succesfully chosen himself to be George W. Bush's running mate and scaling back focus on terrorism), kind of indirectly responsible?

Here is some weird speculation about further changes he underwent after 1993 - more programming from his terrorist masters?:

From Talking Points Memo

So in 2003, Cheney's fake intelligence fetish gets the US to invade a Iraq - a secular dictatorship - strenghtening Islamist Iran, causing loads of Muslim anger across the world etc. as well as getting the US to commit torture, open secret prisons... - all the stuff that made it far more easy to hate America...


...not to mention upping spending whilst cutting taxes for the rich - effectively guaranteeing the US goes bankrupt. And just in case that didn't work, de-regulating Wall St., thus causing the collapse of some of the biggest US companies...

So why does no-one ever ask if Dick Cheney is a sleeper cell? He's definitely been more effective at almost destroying America than Osama Bin Laden.
