Rubber Sidewalks Prevent Keg Damage, Good for Environment August 19th, 2008
A new sidewalk project in an Iowa college town is aimed at putting a little bounce into beer kegs instead of dings in the sidewalk.
The city of Ames is installing a rubber sidewalk at a spot near the Iowa State University campus where beer distributors unload hundreds of kegs from trucks for area bars.
The heavy kegs have been cracking the concrete pavement. So officials have decided to install sidewalk pavers made by a California company using recycled tires.
The city’s streets supervisor tested the project by taking a sledge hammer to it. The new sidewalk didn’t even dent.
In addition to bouncing beer kegs, the project offers an environmental plus. The sidewalk uses about 675 tires that would otherwise end up in a landfill.
Quote Me of The Day: Jennifer Love Hewitt August 19th, 2008
I completely agree with absolutely EVERYTHING she says! Preach it.
“I wish I had been nude from the time I was 12 until I was 28. I looked great!”
“I so wish I had listened to my mom and grandma when I was 18 and would complain about some little tiny bump or feeling bloated. I used to scoff and say, ‘No, I feel fat today!’ Now the joke’s on me.”
“I want to tell all young girls to walk around in bikinis all summer, because there will be that one day in your twenties when you’ll eat a hamburger and actually see the hamburger on the side of your leg,” she jokes.
Hoopz is Hot, That About Sums it Up August 19th, 2008
I think Hoopz is absolutely stunning! What a difference keeping the dark locks makes!! 
She’s also one of the realest contestants on the show. Respectful. Athletic. Fierce as hell.
I think I Love Money is my favorite reality show of all time. With all these alliances, the drama, White Boy and Megan, I couldn’t ask for more. Megan’s retarded dog is my fave crazy ass bitch on the show!
Who do I think’s gonna go home next? Why, thank you for asking, voice in my head. I say it’s The Entertainer (please, God) or Real. But I want Toastee and Megan’s shady ass outta there. I think White Boy, has no shot because he’s a threat. Heather and Hoopz don’t either because they’re athletic and tough. Brandi C, Megan or a-hole 12 Pack could walk away with the $250K prize.
Hoopz hits newsstands September 2.
Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan Hug and Make Up? August 19th, 2008
Things were “tense” last week when Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan spotted each other at the opening of West Hollywood’s Apple Lounge.
Ironically both sluts arrived around the same time. Paris was rollin’ deep with her blond entourage while Linday’s crew consisted “largely of gays,” according to witnesses.
Linds and Paris were dancing when Samantha noticed Paris, she then whispered in Lindsay’s ear the moment she saw Ms. Hilton.
And just when gyrating Lindsay and Paris were in danger of literally bumping into each other—both infamous femmes had, up until this moment, taken great pains to avoid speaking or looking at each other—Paris, like a bejeweled, overly coiffed gazelle, leapt across the dance floor to hug a shocked Lindsay, who limply hugged back.
Um, who the eff is Paris to interrupt Linds on the dance floor to rub her herpes all over her? It better have not been a good song. Of course Lindsay’s hug back was limp. She’s not a poser. You know she’d rather rip Paris’ extensions out and pop that water bra she’s been wearing to give her cleavage. Shit.

Heidi and Spencer Want to Adopt August 19th, 2008
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are talking babies.
“I think I’d rather adopt than have kids,” Pratt said when I caught up with the two this morning. “There are so many kids that need homes.”
A few minutes later, Pratt, 25, clarified that he doesn’t just want to adopt. “I wanna do both,” he explained. “We’ll pull an Angelina and Brad and have a whole clan.”
Montag, 21, cooed, “We’d be so lucky to have a clan like that.”
How predictable are these two, making the most obvious statements to get attention? I want Heidi to say her period’s late and she may be knocked up, Spencer to get caught kissing another woman or man in front of the paps, Heidi going on a date with Brody Jenner or Jason … Or for fug’s sake, leak your own damn sex tape, Speidi!
If The Hills makes me lmao so much because it is the worst show on television, I’m sure a Speidi sex tape would be funnier than Superbad. Oh, and I saw Pineapple Express last night. The foot in the window scene was funny, but I should have been stoned, fo sho. That’s just my recommendation, all.
