You know who they are? That's Wichita State University! When they first took the court in 1906, the college was known as Fairmount College. The team was called the "Wheatshockers". In their first game ever, they got pounded by Washburn University 37-10. In their whole first season, they only won 2 games! The WSU Shockers have come a long way, and this coming Thursday, they have a chance to take it a little further! We wish our Shockers the very best, and good luck against La Salle on Thursday night in L.A. Click the picture for the history of the Wichita State SHOCKERS!

Ok, maybe I exaggerate a little. The NJCAA Tournament does and is happening in Hutchinson today, and I will be there, but my part is literally, less than 1 minute. I will be delivering the opening prayer, or invocation, to the evening session tonight at the Sports Arena in Hutchinson. This will be my 3rd year doing it. I KNOW! They keep asking me back! Being a good-ole Hutch boy, I am honored to be there.

So I have some friends that strive for "cool" beers. Micros, Crafts, ya know, what I call "fancy" beer. They like it thick. EEEW. Try and serve them a Bud or Coors, and you'd have rather offended the Pope. Well, this is right up their alley. Or if you like weird beers, this is definately for you. Click HERE for a bizarre line-up of incredibly odd ingredient beers. Ugh.

The Pope voting continues within the depths of the Vatican..... When, Who? AAAAHHHHHH!!!!! Here are a couple great Pope links, and a funny video regarding the Pope from the Steve Martin "Pink Panther" movie. The first link is a site you can submit your email or phone number to be alerted as soon as the WHITE SMOKE billows out announcing the newest Pope.

Ok, calm down. Yes, asteroids have been zooming close to planet Earth. Have they been close? Yes. Are we in danger? Well.... Of course we are! But, we are ALWAYS in danger of being hit by asteroids. These asteroids have the potential of wiping out an averaged size city. So should we be worried? Should you be worried you're gonna fall down a flight of stairs? Of course, but it's something that shouldn't bog down your thoughts 24/7. Click HERE for a great asteroid story, and hopefully it will calm you down a little. I mean, 4 large asteroids coming close to the Earth isn't much to worry about, IS IT?!

Uh, what? I saw this and HAD to show you. Police in Mexico have seized from drug smugglers, a unique way to get drugs into the U.S. A CANNON! Yeah! A cannon! This looks like a potato gun on steriods! Smugglers were able to "shoot" up to 30lbs of weed over the border into the U.S. GENIUS! Click HERE for the story and picture on this crazy contraption.

Ya ever hear your friends say something like this?.... "THIS CRAP IS WATERED DOWN!" Well, it could be! A multi-million dollar lawsuit has been waged against InBev, the makers of Budweiser, Michelob, and other brands, and accusing them of watering down their products in order to increase profits. InBev, of course, says that is false and they comply with all labeling laws that say how much alcohol content is in each bottle of beer. What will decide the case is testing of the beers to determine the alcohol content. In the lawsuit, aside from money, it also seeks corrective advertising. Meaning the lawsuit wants commercials to come out and say they did in fact water down their beers. We'll keep ya posted on the results of this case. In the meantime, I will go out and sample a large amount of these beers to see if it's watered down. If I pass out, then wake up the next morning in trouble for peeing in the bedroom closet, the alcohol is still strong. HAHAHA!!! Click HERE for the full story and video.
