Disclosure: I’m a guy, I didn’t get a chance to watch last night’s third episode of Season 3, and I’m not a dancer. I only got opinions.
Sadly, I don’t think a female celebrity will win this year’s Dancing with the Stars. A guy will claim this crown for the third time (okay, [...]

The downfall of the cast of Saved by the Bell continues! Last we heard, Dustin Diamond who played Screech Powers on Saved by the Bell was raising cash to save his home. I guess his tee shirt campaign didn’t go too well so he needed another source of revenue.

The radio airwaves are no longer the only place to find great tunes. More and more new material can now be found on the television. And I’m not just talking about theme songs that start the shows. Watch any decent show, and you’ll ALWAYS hear music playing during the highest and lowest [...]
