Go on Dave!!

Introducing......

TEAM DAVE

l.-r. Dave, Dave, Dave, Dave, and Dave.


As expected, ‘Team Dave’ proved victorious in last night’s, um, well, the trophy only had three sides engraved, but I’m sure it’s been going on much longer than that – we’ll call it seventh annual MBI-UK Bowling Tournament.

Once again the old adage proved true – slow and steady wins the race. With the Giant Killers – led by Lord David “Wannabe Dave” Randall – jumping out to a huge lead in the preliminaries, Team Dave stayed consistent and saved their best for last.

The team stayed lose in between rounds with a little Dance Dance Revolution.

And some…uh, yeah.


Congrats to all on a well-played tournament. The real winner of the night was cod goujons.


Later Dave!

And who said nothing good ever came out of America...

David Hasselhoff is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "The Most Watched TV Star in the World," thanks to starring roles in both "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch."
Today, "Baywatch" is viewed in 140 countries by over one billion viewers each week. Along the way Hasselhoff appeared in several feature films...and most recently was seen in the family favorite The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.

His remarkable musical career took off in the late 1980s when he recorded the album, Looking for Freedom, at the end of the Cold War. The song became an anthem for the German people and remained at the top of their charts for eight weeks. The album went triple platinum in Europe, and Hasselhoff was named "Most Popular and Best Selling Artist of the Year" in Germany.
His most recent album, “David Hasselhoff Sings America,” is a selection of his favorite American pop standards. His concerts play to standing-room-only audiences throughout the world and he has released six other albums in Europe which have all gone platinum and gold.

VH1's Best Week Ever

(Also known in Detroit as: The Worst Week Ever)

First, the 83-win Redbirds – led by their 5’ 7” MVP – take down the mighty Tigers.

Then, the stl takes 1st place in the recent study naming the most dangerous cities in America. I’m from the lou and I’m proud. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/30/city.crime.ap/index.html

Then, Ford announces more record losses for the last quarter; meahwhile, Budweiser announces, well, we’re still the king of beer.

Eminem – cancel your battle Nelly this weekend! Luck is not on your side.

This guy, on the other hand, doesn't need any luck:
