The Weekly Buzz
By: David Alvarez
DVD of the week: Rocky Balboa. The infamous Rocky returns to encounter one last fight; but this time he must go up against a young stud prepared to knock him back to the 70's. The question is, ?Who wants to see a steroid filled, 60-year-old, has been, box? I do, I do!
Good American of the week: Genshiro Kawamoto. I know... it doesn't sound American, right? Well he's doing something nice for a change. Kawamoto is a billionaire real estate tycoon that has allowed four Hawaiian families to move into multi-million dollar homes he built. When asked why he did it, he stated, ?Because the affluent people can help the least fortunate people." The families only have to pay $150 rent a month. 150 bucks! That's what it costs a day to live in Miami.
Bad American of the week: Michael Hailey. Hailey was a former Camden elementary school principal and was charged with tricking parents and students into giving money for field trips that were already financed by the school district. Though he collected small amounts, sometimes only $5 each student, Hailey has collect more then $14,000. Did I mention that Camden, NJ is one of the poorest cities in the U.S.? Only the biggest scumbags would rob from people who have barely anything to give. Hope Michael Hailey enjoys his field trip to jail.
Worthless Invention of the week: The beer-tossing refrigerator I'm sure many of my readers think this is NOT worthless. Some of you are already reaching for your credit card, ready to buy. Well slow your roll chief, there's only one in existence. John Cornwell, recent graduate from Duke, built the fridge after coming up with the idea while talking with friends. The fridge can launch a can in the air accurately about 20 feet, meaning now you don't have to move that big ol' beer gut of yours to grab a beer.
Idiot of the week: Judge Lawrence Korda. Korda is a Broward County judge that was involved in the whole Anna Nicole Smith case. He was in Stanley Goldman Park this month, sitting under a tree, puffin' on a joint. According to sources, a cop smelt the weed and confronted Korda. Apparently, he wasn't even arrested. Rather he must appear in court and faces possession charges.
Hot Newscaster of the week: Megan Glaros. Glaros made the move to South Florida in September 2004 and is now the Local 10 morning news meteorologist. What makes her most qualified for her job is her recent award. She was given the MS Seal of Approval from the American Meteorological Society and her experience as an Indianapolis Colts cheerleader in 2002 keeps people tuned in.
Joke of the week: "Jack Daniel's, that is a wild man drink. It should come with bail money. Because on Jack you don't know where you're going to end up, but you know when you get there you're not going to be wearing pants." - Dave Attell
