  • Sam Houston's Not The First Politician To Be In A Cheesy Ad

    If you needed any more evidence that Comcast was an agent of evil on par with Al Qaeda or whomever makes those peanut-butter-filled pretzels, look no further than the cable company's inescapable local commercials featuring Sam Houston. The former Texas President/Governor is shown engaging in a variety of "hip" and "with it" activities to dupe us into signing up for Comcast's antiquated coaxial garbage.

  • Attention Passengers: Forget Bush Intercontinental, Here Are The Five Best Karaoke Movie Scenes

    If Buddha, Mohammed, and Jesus Christ joined hands and strolled down Westheimer turning automobiles into unicorns while singing "Blasphemous Rumors" I don't think it would get as much coverage as that infernal karaoke machine at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (including right here at Hair Balls).

When he was about 15 feet from Mr. Buck, the deer lowered his head and charged toward him, Longoria said. The deer then knocked

  • For Valentine's Day: The Five Worst Romantic Comedies

    With Valentine's Day approaching, tbe best most of you poor single bastards can hope for is to get through the night with your bank account relatively intact. Married folks are better off, as all they're really expected to come up with is a perfunctory gift and maybe an evening spent watching a dreaded "romantic comedy" (or "rom-com," as the genre is referred to by Communists and pederasts) on DVD. Even if that's the case, there are plenty of pitfalls to avoid. It was an exhausting process, but

  • WrestleMania: The Fans. Let's Not Forget The Fans

    Last Sunday's WrestleMania promised to bring the faithful to Houston, and in that regard at least, it didn't disappoint (unless by "faithful" you were expecting personages of some religious significance, in which case you'd certainly be a little disappointed). Let's take a look back at some of the more colorful rasslin' aficionados that descended upon Reliant Stadium.5. Smiles, Everyone...Smiles! This was taken right before Triple H's climactic entrance, but for the life of me I can't figure o
