Detroit’s Hans Steiniger knows all about what it takes to be a true football fan.
That’s because HANS STEINIGER HAS VISITED ALL 31 NFL STADIUMS as part of a four-year quest to complete a unique journey of experiencing each stadium as a “local fan”. Yup, he attended the games as a local would – in full jersey, face-painted, bead-wearing, cheesehead-toting regalia.
We’ve previously covered how to LOCATE CELEBRITY HOMES ON GOOGLE here on Web Watch, and it seems to have been a hit with a number of Web Watch’s visitors.
So we thought we’d offer another way for tourists to look around and gawk at those places that celebrities call home when the celebrities aren’t invading our living rooms through that magic talking box in the corner.
Web Watch would like to introduce Web Watch readers to Josh Richman and Anish Sheth, MD, who collectively are known as DR STOOL. (Web Watch will refrain from making any jokes about the two authors meeting while at Brown University, even if it is true.)
Josh and Anish have taken a practical approach to answering all manner of poo-related questions and have released a book entitled WHAT’S YOUR POO TELLING YOU? and a companion piece WHAT’S MY PEE TELLING ME?.

In Peter Biskind’s new book about Warren Beatty, STAR: HOW WARREN BEATTY SEDUCED AMERICA, we learn that Warren Beatty has allegedly slept with over 12,000 different women.
Approximately 12,775 – if you believe what the book says.
While there may be some Web Watch readers who will applaud Warren for coming anywhere close to even 1/4 of that number, there will be a large number of folks who will believe that Warren has completed all those conquests… and more… without question.
And that is where Web Watch can step in. Because bedding 12,775 partners seems a bit over-achieving to us.
And apparently, we’re not alone in this thinking.

Every New Year, there are people who make casual New Year’s Resolutions that they hope to keep in order to better themselves (the traditional “stop smoking”, “exercise more”, and “spend more time with loved ones”), and then there are people like Richard Nikoley who believe in making a definitive lifestyle change for overall good.
It seems that Richard has decided to FREE THE ANIMAL within and make some dramatic changes to how he lives his life – things that may seem dramatic to others, that is.
You see, Richard has decided, among other things, to STOP USING SOAP AND SHAMPOO.

A new year has begun and newscasters, magazine writers, bloggers, and others are all proclaiming 2010 to be the first year of the next decade with all their “best of the 00’s” lists.
Just like Web Watch had to do during the Y2K celebrations, we’re not here to put a damper on everyone’s fun, but TO REMIND EVERYONE THAT THE FIRST YEAR OF THE TWENTY-TEENS IS NOT 2010, BUT 2011.
Remember it like this: was there a year zero? No. There was a year 1. And that made the tenth year, year 10. But the tenth year only counts as a full year when it ends, not when it begins. Which means that the completion of the first decade was on December 31st, 10.
Sure, there are those who will bring up the dictionary definition of “decade” as any set of 10 years that begin with a year ending in zero (ie 2000-2009), but that is just counter-productive to our discussion and will be ignored for entertainment reasons.

William Poundstone is one of Web Watch’s favorite writers, having written many books around the same theme of exposing various ways that professionals (magicians, street crooks, carnies, casinos, etc) lie, cheat, and steal their way into your wallet.
Some of Mr Poundstone’s books that you may already be aware of include:
All are great reads and lots of fun.
And now Mr Poundstone adds to his roster with PRICELESS – THE MYTH OF FAIR VALUE AND HOW TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.
