So What You're Saying Is ... There's a Chance


According to a new study from Australia, pictures of skinny or slightly chubby men were no less appealing to women than muscular men with six-pack abs.

Study author Phillippa Diedrichs said young people may have negative reactions to very fit or very pretty people because they assume those people are vain.

On the other hand, models with more realistic body types were considered more approachable -- and more lovable.

Prayers,Vitamins....Frutty Pebbels ????


Hulk Hogan former/current pro wrestler has had his problems lately; he went through a nasty divorce, his son did time in jail of paralyzing a friend in a street racing incident, his daughters "career" as a singer/actress/model/nobody is going nowhere, he had a reality show (which is the beginning to all bad things that happen to celebs).
Now "the Hulkster" is mad - BROTHER - at the Flintstones? H.H. is suing Post, the maker of Cocoa Pebbles, after noticing that the villain in a recent commercial bears a striking resemblance to his own iconic persona. The commercial stars the sugary cereal's animated mascots from "The Flintstones" going up against said competitor, which the lawsuit says goes by the name of "Hulk Boulder." According to a Tampa Tribune report, Hogan contends he used the name "Hulk Boulder" early in his career before wrestling promoter Vince McMahon decided he should have an Irish name. (A visit to Hogan's Wikipedia page revealed one of his early nom de brawls as having been "Terry Boulder", but there's no mention of a "Hulk Boulder".)

Florida Freak File Salutes... Capt. Dumb-Ass


A Brevard County doctor dressed up in a Captain America outfit was arrested with a burrito in his tights. What he allegedly did at the police station got him into more trouble.

RAW VIDEO: Capt. America Booked At Police Dept.

Doctor Raymond Adamcik, 54, would probably rather forget about the weekend when he was arrested on charges of battery, disorderly conduct, drug possession and trying to destroy evidence. It's not what you would expect from a doctor or Captain America.
On Saturday night, when a costume party full of medical professionals stopped at On Tap Cafe, police said Adamcik had a burrito stuffed below the waistband of his costume and was asking women if they want to touch it. When one refused, he allegedly took out the burrito and groped her. The woman called police and, when they arrived, the officers wrote in their report "there were so many cartoon characters in the bar at the time, all Captain America's were asked to go outside for a possible identification."The woman pointed out Adamcik and the burrito was found in his boot. He was taken to the police station. There, while in a holding cell, police said, he asked to use the bathroom and tried to flush a joint, also hidden in his blue tights, down the toilet."The officer observed him try to flush something into the toilet. He tried to flush it. The officer was able to reach inside and grab part of what he tried to flush," said Jill Frederiksen, Melbourne Police Department.
No super powers got Adamcik out of jail. He needed $2,000 cash bail and then, once he got out of jail, he still stopped to pose for pictures on the way out. It is unclear right now whether the doctor could lose his medical license if he's convicted. Tuesday, Eyewitness News learned that Adamcik was checking himself into a rehad program and taking a temporary leave from his medical practice.

Let's All Go To The Lobby


Movie theater concessions have gone way beyond the traditional popcorn and candy. Nowadays you could park yourself in a seat next to someone eating nachos, hot dogs or pizza and washing it down with a latte. Has movie food (and prices) gotten a bit too ridiculous, or is any type of food O.K. in a movie theater? Would you be all right with the guy next to you eating a spicy tuna roll or sitting down with a sizzling plate of fajitas? Are you more traditional when it comes to movie snacks -- popcorn and candy?
What's your favorite movie theater snack?
