All in all, it was a pretty good weekend here in Boston. The weather was gorgeous, the Patriots dominated the Bills, and I ate this donut. So really, no complaints here. Unfortunately, that’s not the case for some other people.
This Poor Kid

I don’t know much about Ole Miss football, except that the high school coach in “The Blind Side” is now their coach. And I know even less about Alabama football – I just want someone to explain to me how houndstooth plays into it, because I really like that pattern but I want people to stop yelling “Roll Tide!” at me every time I wear it.
Anyway, this poor kid likely went to Saturday night’s game believing his No. 2 Crimson Tide would best the No. 15 Rebels at home. But Alabama looked straight up sloppy, turning the ball over five times, and Ole Miss built a lead they wouldn’t surrender for the rest of the game. So while the Rebels had a hella good weekend – taking down ‘Bama and jumping up to No. 3 in the AP rankings – The Tide, not so much, falling to No. 12.
Lindsay Lohan
I was watching Mean Girls the other day and, as always when I catch it on TV, lamenting the downfall of Lindsay Lohan. I mean, the actress otherwise known as Cady Heron legit had so much potential. And now, things have gotten so bad that a judge pretty much said that the whole world knows she’s a coke head.
Back in February, Lindsay and her mom, Dina, filed suit against Fox News, as well as Sean Hannity and Michelle Fields, for stating “as fact” in February 2014 perpetual Mom-of-The-Year candidate Dina did coke with her daughter. On Friday, the judge throw out the case, stating that “truth is a defense” and pointing out that Lindsay was once recorded calling her father (who is just about as gross as her mother) and saying, “Mom’s on cocaine.”
Oh Cady… what happened?

Tyga
I have to admit, I don’t think I’d know who Tyga was if he wasn’t dating the sluttiest youngest Kardashian/Jenner sister, Kylie. I mean, I like that “Rack City” song, but hell if I know who actually sang it.
Anyway, despite managing to get away with dating Jenner while she was clearly underage, Tyga (a backronym for Thank You God Always – who knew?) isn’t able to hide from one branch of the law – the tax man. According to TMZ, the rapper “got slapped with a tax lien from the State of California to the tune of $19,124.98. He allegedly shorted the Golden State on his 2009, 2010, and 2011 tax bills.” This is on top of the $70K he owes his landlord in back rent, a few lawsuits, and being hit with a $100K federal tax bill last year.
Good thing Kylie makes some bank, huh?

People Who Use Toilets In Australia
Pretty high on my list of phobias – along with heights, bedbugs, and being tagged in bad Instagram photos – is snakes. As such, this headline is literally my worst nightmare.
Dry weather in Australia may be causing snakes to slither into toilets — like this python: http://t.co/Lhp5CORzJd pic.twitter.com/s1V4BpKDH1

In the Australia town of Townsville (creative naming there, folks), there have been not one, but two instances of snakes that have snuck into people’s toilets. One was 9.8 feet long; the other 7.8 feet, and both are way too big for my comfort level.
Why are the snakes taking refuge in peoples’ commodes? Apparently, there is a dry spell in the Queensland region, and the snakes are coming in through open doors and windows looking for water during their mating season. According to snake expert Elliot Budd, “They are using a lot more energy than they normally would so they need more water. They’re non-venomous these snakes. They aren’t considered dangerous. They’re not something to fear but it’s best if you come across them to leave them alone.”
BRB, canceling that dream vacation to Australia.

I don’t really have to say much more than that, do I? On the upside, I hear RGIII is just kind of hanging out in Washington… maybe he’d be willing to move to Dallas? .

I had a pretty good weekend. The wife wouldn’t let me go out Friday night with the boys so I slipped a couple of my Ambien in her glass of Cabernet. I came home at 4 am and she was still passed out on the love seat.
I frantically just looked down after seeing that snake pic… All good, just poop.
I’m going to shit in the urinal just to be safe.
Where did you get that donut and do they take bulk orders?

I’ll go get you some and ship them, ’cause I’m nice like that.
Perfect, I’ll pay you back in donuts and/or drinks when I’m in Boston at the end of the year.
Is RG3 the Lindsay Lohan of quarterbacks, or is Lindsay Lohan the RG3 of actresses?
A question for the ages…
As much as I hate the Cowboys, I wouldn’t wish RG3 on anyone.
Congrats on barely beating the team who lost to the Raiders last year, I guess? “Dominated” is a bit of an exaggeration. We’re you guys really that nervous after they beat the Colts?
That snake story will haunt my dreams
I don;t care if you follow college football or not. The fact that people don’t know that houndstooth is associated with Bear Bryant is disturbing, and I don’t even like Alabama
