Fox Loves Them Some Aerosmith

Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer is stepping out on his own for an appearance on the season finale of The Simpsons. In the episode titled The Ned-Liest Catch, Bart, feeling guilty for getting Mrs. Krabappel suspended after one of his school pranks, helps her escape detention, and Ned Flanders winds up saving her life in the process. When Edna and Ned start dating, he is surprised to learn she's been with many of Springfield's men, including Homer and Kramer.

It airs on May 22nd at 7 p.m. CST on FOX.
Aerosmith appeared on The Simpsons in 1991.

The 137th Running of the Kentucky Dumb Asses

Racing across the porta potties at the Kentucky Derby has become a favorite pastime for drunks the last decade or so. But officials this year wanted to put an end to the debauchery and installed canopies to dissuade would-be runners.

And you know what, their plan really didn’t work. People still made valiant attempts while being pelted with beer cans and other foreign objects. Never again should you test the resolve of those who have BAC’s above the Mendoza Line.

Thankfully, the cops were there to “serve and protect” after these brave fellows had concluded their missions.

MOST HATED BABY NAMES

There is no scientific study on the most-hated names, but these results, culled from hundreds of online message board postings by Baby Name Wizard blogger Laura Wattenberg, suggest that people have very strong opinions about what makes a good name.

Here are the least-liked names for both girls and boys:

Girls:

1. Nevaeh ("Heaven" spelled backward and one of the most divisive names around, according to Wattenberg.)
2. Destiny (People dislike names that confer a virtue onto a child, Wattenberg said — and many felt associated this name with exotic dancers.)
3. Madison
4. Mackenzie
5. McKenna
6. Addison (An example of a masculine named turned feminine, which many people dislike, Wattenberg said)
7. Gertrude (People said this name is "ugly.")
8. Kaitlyn (For its "made-up" spelling.)
9. Makayla
10. Bertha
11. Hope

Boys:

1. Jayden
2. Brayden
3. Aiden
4. Kaden (These rhyming names struck many as overdone, Wattenberg reported.)
5. Hunter (Too much like a last name or "too violent.")
6. Hayden
7. Bentley (People dislike brand-name names, Wattenberg found, calling them "trashy")
8. Tristan
9. Michael (Too boring, according to some.)
10. Jackson

Nugent is Animated.... Really

Ted Nugent will appear on a Simpsons episode titled "Politically Inept, With Homer Simpson" next year.
Nugent, playing himself, will run for president on the Republican ticket and seek Homer's endorsement. Nugent has never been seen on The Simpsons, but his voice was briefly heard over the phone in the 2007 episode "I Don't Wanna Know Why the Caged Bird Sings." see picture.
