Two things happened that've never happened before. First off, for the first time ever somebody pulled off a front flip... ON A SNOWMOBILE!     Secondly, Shaun White shows us again why he's in a league of his own. He won his fifth Superpipe in row by pulling off a perfect 100.00 from the judges.  /blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10342853jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10342853Tue, 31 Jan 2012 02:28:58 GMTKesha, Beiber, Katy Perry. What do these people have in common? They are all involved in the musical equivalent of Tyler Perry comedys: Pop Music. Which is basically watered down, easily consumed, uncreative "entertainment." Or as I call it "entertainmentally handicapped!" (Good one, Jimbo. Kinda offensive though.) The most interesting thing about this type of music is how quickly they pump out songs. It's like a sausage factory. Katy Perry broke a record by having 7 hits on the Billboard charts at the same time, or something like that. Well, that's only possible because writing a pop song is so easy to do! Here's Canadian comedian Jon Lajoie (The League) proving just how easy it is. [Caution: Contains swears and an abundant amount of auto-tune]   Here's another example for people with less talent than Lajoie to do the exact same thing.

Six minutes of footage to be exact! Now to be fair, the quality is garbage, and the audio is not synched well, but it's still cool to see some of this movie this early. Or maybe not? Maybe it's like finding your presents before Christmas and the fun and surprise is gone. So watch at your own risk! http://img.ibtimes.com/www/articles/20111217/268894_dark-knight-rises-leaked-prologue-video-clip.htm/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10328002jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10328002Sat, 17 Dec 2011 21:29:02 GMTWant to win a pair of Rise Against tickets and qualify to win 10 pairs!?

Logo is nice and clean and it shows the history that Winnipeg has with the military. The colours are a little boring though, but still pretty decent.   Now let's take a look back at some of the most horrid hockey jerseys of all time, shall we?   ST LOUIS BLUES    Not sure if this is a hockey jersey, or a shirt for a marching band. I do know, however, that something that can be described as "horny" has never offended my eyes so much. Rumor has it that once, Elton John saw the jersey and said, "That's a bit too gay." This was St. Louis' third jersey for a year. Luckily, Mike Keenan, never let his team wear these on the ice.  PHOENIX COYOTES    One of the worst logo designs ever. It looks like .../blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10270738jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10270738Wed, 10 Aug 2011 23:34:33 GMTI've been watching these ridiculous YouTube videos non-stop lately. Boardeline addicted, actually. These need to be shared these with you as my final step in the kicking the habit.   Basically, it's historical figures throughout the ages having rap battles. The answer to your question is: Yes, it is as incredible as it sounds.   Chuck Norris vs Abe Lincoln   Hitler vs Darth Vader         Stephen Hawking vs Albert Einstein   /blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10268625jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10268625Wed, 03 Aug 2011 22:31:12 GMTROCK STAR LOOK-A-LIKES /blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10254550jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10254550Fri, 24 Jun 2011 16:24:31 GMTNothing says "Happy Father's Day" like gangster rap right?   /blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10252553jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10252553Sun, 19 Jun 2011 14:32:08 GMT  Eddie Veder of Pearl Jam is taking his solo act in a slightly different direction. His new album 'Ukulele Songs' is out now. We are giving away copies of the album all week and they album is supposed to be incredible! Now, you may be thinking, "Jimmy, what is this? Ukuleles don't rock! Aren't ukuleles for Hawaiins and Frenchmen?"   Stop right there. Check out these ukelele covers of some huge rock songs before you judge to harshly.   Ukulele cover of STP- Plush     Cover of MGMT- Kids     Cover of Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit   Cover of Guns N Roses- Sweet Child O' Mine   /blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10246485jim.kelly@corusent.com (Jim Kelly)/blog/jim/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10246485Mon, 06 Jun 2011 19:23:39 GMT
