Talk about cowardly. The Luohe zoo in the Chinese province of Henan is in trouble after it reportedly tried to pass off a Tibetan mastiff dog as a lion. The dog, pictured, was placed in a cage labeled “African lion,” but the zoo’s visitors figured out something was amiss when they heard the animal, which […]
Yesterday, while Julie and I were discussing the season finale of “Game of Thrones,” both of us knelt down and said a prayer that some genius — i.e. someone who’s handy with Final Cut Pro — would do a supercut of “Saturday Night Live”‘s “Dick In A Box” just for Theon Greyjoy. (Theon’s wang, of […]
Margaret Pellegrini, one of the last living munchkins from “The Wizard of Oz,” passed away yesterday in her Phoenix home at the age of 89. You might remember her as one of the “sleepy head” munchkins — the one who wore a flower pot on her head. In the video clip above, she talks about […]

Their owner/Cat Leader is Next Level Crazy Cat Lady Samantha Martin, who’s trained her cats to do actual tricks. Do you know how hard it […]
If you haven’t had a chance to watch Sundance Channel’s “Push Girls”, a series about four paralyzed women living in Los Angeles, you should probably do that right away. It’s riveting to hear these women talk so candidly about their experiences being wheelchair bound. You get to follow them through their lives, loves and personal struggles […]
