Rated R for language, drug use, puking, and dry humping in the back seat of what appears to be an AMC Gremlin.
Rating: C
The movie poster proudly proclaims that Adventureland is from the same director who brought you Superbad.
Superbad was funny. Adventureland isn’t.
What was promised, based on the trailers and advance press, was a film filled with wacky amusement park hijinks in the newly vogue retro teen-sex-comedy genre.
I’ve been watching THE BEST DAMN POKER SHOW on Fox Sports Net.
It’s a tournament-based series, with two teams of (mostly) amateur poker players competing against each other and coached by poker pros Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth. For whatever reason, I can’t watch most poker programs on TV, but shows like this one or Bravo’s prematurely cancelled CELEBRITY POKER SHOWDOWN that offer decent, approachable advice for the casual player (along with a little bit of personality and humor) are more entertainly watchable for me versus the more serious World Poker Tour or High Stakes Poker shows.
Besides, who wouldn’t want to get free poker advice from Annie Duke, Phil Hellmuth, or Phil Gordon (an early commentator on CPS)? As such, I turn you to one small piece of advice learned from season 2, episode 5, of The Best Damn Poker Show.

A recent article about HOW THE ECONOMIC DOWNTURN IS RESULTING IN MORE WOMEN MAKING “STRIPPER” A CAREER CHOICE, shared these interesting facts:
Cameron Karsten writes spiritual and health-related columns for a travel magazine. Here are his 10 THINGS YOU LEARN ABOUT YOURSELF WHEN YOU TRAVEL ALONE:
You’ve seen those giant gift bow ribbons on the cars in those fancy car commercials, right? I know that Lexus makes those giant red bows available for a rental/damage fee when you buy a car from them (which makes sense, considering that they make a big deal about giving a Lexus as a gift to your loved one).
But if you don’t want to rent a bow from a dealer and would prefer to have one for every day giant bow use, you can always order a giant bow from CAR BOWS or KING SIZED BOWS.
Prices range from $30-$100 and more, depending on the size of the bow you need and other factors. But at least you own the bow, so you can use it for any other gift you’re planning on giving that requires a big giant bow.

All you need to do is learn some new 2- and 3-letter words.
In what appears to be a bad case of timing from their reporters, The Wall Street Journal finally reported this week of a dramatic change in the world of Scrabble that took place in October 2005:
THE ADDITION OF NEW WORDS TO THE SCRABBLE DICTIONARY.
Words such as “ZA”, “QI”, and “ZZZ” were added recently, according to the WSJ. Apparently, “recently” means “in the past 4-5 years” to them.
Regardless, here at Web Watch we believe in making sure that you are not sucked into the same vortex of bad Scrabble-playing that the WSJ would lead you down if you had to wait a few years to discover that there had been a Scrabble dictionary update. So here are the list of handy two- and three- letter words that you should have at the ready the next time you need to impress your Scrabble-playing friends…along with the unexpected WSJ followup:
