I predict that just over 4 years from this post they'll release a new album

Agnetha on her own:

Which is where I got it.

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo is incredibly close to his family. They grew up very poor in Athens and relied on each other — at points Giannis used to have to work selling trinkets during the day to feed the family at night — which is part of why the family was so tight. They remain close, and Giannis — who is very proud he can provide for them — has brought his entire family over from Greece to Milwaukee. Which is why this news is especially sad: Charles Antetokounmpo, Giannis’ father, passed away Friday from a heart attack at age 54. “The Bucks family is heartbroken about the sudden death of Giannis’ father, Charles,” the Bucks said in a statement. “The entire organization, his teammates and coaches are here to support Giannis and his family during this incredibly difficult time. Charles was a big part of the Bucks and will be terribly missed by us all. On behalf of ownership, we express our utmost condolences and offer our prayers to Giannis and his family.” Charles leaves behind his wife, Veronica, and five children, including former Knick Thanasis (who was playing in the Greek league but is flying to the United States for the funeral, which will be in Milwaukee.

My pet rock is very anti-social. He just sits there all day, seemingly not needing human contact. I leave him alone on his special day. I have the sense it's what he wants.

If there's a bigger cheerleader for genealogy research than Henry Louis Gates Jr. it's unlikely they're nearly as well-connected. The prominent Harvard professor once again lures the famous and celebrated to PBS' "Finding Your Roots," which shares their ancestry and family stories as uncovered by impressive research and science. In the fourth season beginning Tuesday (check local listings for time), the three dozen subjects include Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong'o, Sean Combs, Amy Schumer, Garrison Keillor, Aziz Ansari, filmmaker Ava DuVernay, author Ta-Nehisi Coates and Christopher Walken. Larry David, whom Gates said he'd "bugged" for three years to go under the "Roots" microscope, finally agreed and discovered that he's related to Bernie Sanders, whom David memorably impersonated on "Saturday Night Live." Their separate family stories are on the season opener. David said he was reluctant to have personal details disclosed on TV but was glad he finally took part, lauding the "incredible job" done by researchers. There were other revelations that took him aback, he said. David learned of ancestors who settled in Birmingham, Alabama, in the 1840s, owned two slaves and fought for the Confederacy in the Civil War. A hundred years later, many aunts, uncles and cousins on the maternal side of his family died in Nazi Germany's Holocaust. But "Finding Your Roots" is aimed at more than satisfying individual curiosity and telling an engrossing story, said Gates, an executive producer and writer as well as host of the series: It carries a message of shared origins that he argues can benefit society. The science of DNA proves that "there aren't four or five biologically distinct races. We're all from one race, the human race, genetically," Gates said. "And we know that genetically we all ... descended from common ancestors that left the African continent 50,000 years ago. That's a fact." Detailing how different ethnic groups contributed to world history and how their experiences "merged or conflicted" with those of other groups is also of immense value, he said. "It's part of a larger education process to make us all realize we're fully human," Gates said. Advances in DNA testing and the increased digitization of records benefited those who participated this year, he said, while some searches required plain old shoe leather as well. Among the stars with standout stories: — Carly Simon, sister of Neil and Paul, who was eager to find out whether their maternal grandmother, who came to the United States from Cuba, had her lineage right: She claimed to be the offspring of the king of Spain and a Moroccan slave. Researchers traveled to Cuba to search out Catholic church records unavailable online and found "an amazing family tree," Gates said, one different than expected. Simon's grandmother was found to be 40 percent black, making the singer-songwriter 10 percent black. Her grandmother "invented this crazy story, this fabrication, because she knew she was from a mixed-race heritage, and that was very unpopular in the 1950s and '60s," Gates said. — Tea Leoni, who asked the show to focus on finding the family of her mother, Emily Patterson, an adoptee who never knew the names of her biological parents. Over a period of months, Patterson's DNA was run through databases that hold DNA results for some 6 million people, Gates said. A match would show they had a common ancestor. The candidates were narrowed to a pair of sisters, one of whom proved to be Patterson's mother and who, at 96, was still alive, Gates said. A private meeting was arranged with her for Leoni, Patterson and Leoni's daughter. Research also revealed Leoni's biological mother's father, and traced his family back to her seventh great-grandfather, born around 1690, and his Virginia-born son who at one point lived near George Washington. — Questlove, the musician, producer and writer born Ahmir Khalib Thompson, found his family has an extraordinary place in U.S. history. In 1860, five decades after the slave trade to the United States was abolished, a ship commissioned by a Southern planter illegally brought about 110 slaves to Mobile Bay, Alabama, from a port now located in the Republic of Benin, Gates recounted. It was the last known slave ship to arrive in the United States, Gates said. Aboard was a couple who would take the names Charlie and Maggie Lewis and who were recorded on the 1880 census as African-born. As freed people, they settled in an Alabama town largely made up of others on the ship, and Questlove's distant cousins who live in the area shared with him a photo of Charlie Lewis, Gates said.

I want to take out a gun and shoot this man:

The Choice Hotel ads - with that fucking idiot who can only say "ba-da-book ba-da-boom" It was barely funny the first time - now they really need to stop this shit. DEFINITELY! One of the current National Car Rental ads with Patrick Warburton. Now, I've had more than a bit of a crush on "Puddy" ever since his Seinfeld days. And he still looks pretty great. But I really really really don't need him to show me his trying to take out his own appendix. That's just creepy. The first time I noticed him was on an episode of the old Richard Lewis/ Jamie Lee Curtis sitcom ANYTHING BUT LOVE. He played a bodyguard assigned to protect Lewis, who came on to him while wearing a towel. I also think it's really time to say goodbye to Flo and Jamie at Progressive. Even though he's sorta cute in his dorky, boyish way. But I just think it's time for a new gimmick. They've been at this for a long, long time - and it shows. And, most of their ads don't really seem to advertise anything. Have you seen Jamie's latest? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0uUwAOTx3g

I'd let that Russian meddle in MY election!

Does it strike anybody else as odd when you see that Nicole Kidman commercial in which she's touting an anti-wrinkle cream, when she's always been cited as one of the prime examples of actresses whose faces don't move because of botox?

The two best players in the American League this year:

According to his recon profile, that's a big 'aye-aye, sir!'

How many DWIs have you gotten?

How will anyone know if/when that happens?

Admit it, you've been crushing on her since she was in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, haven't you?

When he was involved with Cutler X, their scenes together had Russo calling Cutler 'Daddy' and Cutler calling Russo 'boy'.

RE: FLIP OR FLOP: Frank, one of their contractors, is battling multiple forms of cancer. On a lighter note, it's kind of fun trying to see if there's anything in their occasional looks at each other and comments in the shows filmed after the separation.

His escort ads say he's 39. If you look at his twitter feed, earlier this year he celebrated his 53rd or 54th birthday. He's no longer with former beau Adam Russo. For a little while, Armand Rizzo was part of their relationship. This scene between Cutler & Rizzo is HOT: https://www.gayforit.eu/video/345076/XXXL-Humongous-huge-cock
