Dave Barry's review of 2008

Charles Murray on why undergraduate education is not necessary

Playoff predictions!

Cards and Falcons: Is the Falcons' defense good enough to stop Warner in what is probably going to be a shootout? Doubful, even as much as I like Keith Brooking. Arizona wins 28-24. You can blame dog fighting if you like. At least we know how to cure that particular vice.

Chargers-Colts: Either a really high or really low scoring game. Close either way. Say, 10-7 or 35-31. My dad says SD; I say Indy, because Peyton's goofy and Rivers is more of a, uh, tool. Although LT dominates that asshat duo of Addai and Rhodes.


Baltimore and Miami: Wait, Baltimore? MIAMI? What a wacky season 2008 has been. The Ravens' QB is named Flacco, for God's sake. That's almost Falco, the most brilliant German musician EVER (yes that is the original version of that song). Also he did Rock Me Amadeus. But Miami has Ricky Williams, who miraculously has not smoked himself retarded yet. And Ted Ginn. And....Camarillo Brillo, er, I mean Greg Camarillo. Look, the point is that these two teams are full of fun characters. Miami wins, 13-10.

Philly-Minn: Also known as Donovan and Wesbrook vs Brad "giant asshole" Childress and Darren "ain't nobody" Sharper. Oh yeah, and that guy Peterson. I hear he runs or something. Assuming Philly doesn't cave they take it, say, oh....27-17? I have no clue.

And to ring in the new year, the best show ever:

CC is one of them....boooo

Nick????!??? ZOMFG!

Are you masquerading as some dood named adrian grenier??? Cuz it sure looks like it. I have to admit, I expected a better name, like Mandrake Killcannon or something.

Cao wins seat in Congress!

No joke. Congressional Democrats would do well to double the guard on their supply depots. Lord Cao is a master of the fire-attack stratagem. Also, his ambition will not be easily crushed.

For you Bert

"Falsely" imprisoning your Norweigan Male Escort?

As if you can do it "truely"? Regardless, this story is full of win.
