     The headline might seem a bit sensational, but once you see the photographic evidence there is no argument. You might be asking yourself how a humble little podcast uncovered such a major story. Well it happened as you would expect, when we were reading the Huffington Post during lunch. The title of the article was "Gary Brooks Faulkner: God Told Me To Kill Bin Laden" (a link to the full article can be found here). The article tells the story of Gary Brooks Faulkner, a fifty year old construction worker from Colorado who got busted in the sketchiest part of Pakistan carrying what you'd expect a middle aged American man with kidney disease to be carrying: a pistol, a sword, and night-vision equipment (since it's Ham we can only image that its a truly righteous sword like the one pictured to the left).

     Gary's motivation for this quest came when God appeared to him in a dream telling him to travel to Pakistan and rid the world of Osama bin Laden. Sounds like your average, run of the mill nut case right? It did to us as well until we saw the picture. There is only one explanation: Ham Bagby traveled back in time from twenty years in the future like some sort of Druid City T-1000 hell bent on taking out Osama. Who knows what kind of shit Bin Laden will have unleashed upon the world in twenty years (our best guess, and the reason for Future Ham's involvement, is that he will formulate some sort of anti-facemelting ray).

     Ham, we salute you. This attempt might have failed, but if all the Terminator movies have taught us anything it's that shit goes awry sometimes. Paradox issues be damned, Ham is going to save us all. Read more »

Last night I saw local celebrity, city councilman and host of TV's Great Day Tuscaloosa at Publix (the one campus). It got me thinking. A lot of people from Tuscaloosa know Kip as more than the man on Comcast Ch. 20 with the wicker set in the McFarland Mall.
   To people who grew up in Tuscaloosa, Kip is their James Spann. Kip was the man in Tuscaloosa TV.  He was THE weatherman at WCFT Channel 33. In the early 1980s, WCFT had the leading local newscast in western Alabama (with newscasts called "Eyewitness News")
The first 16 seconds will change your life...don't watch the rest of this video.

    Not only are we not ready for prime time, we are not ready for any tv broadcast. If you have watched any number of the podcasts from the Well That's Cool family of podcast you may have heard a four letter word or two or three. Thats because, we are not afraid to use the words. That is one of the main ways we are different from Suprem Court justice Antonin Scalia. In a recent 5-4 rulling the court "upheld the government’s power under existing law to ban the use on radio and TV of even a single four-letter word that is considered indecent"

   In Justice Scalia's written opinion he "referred to the banned words as the “F-word” and the “S-word” but not go on to fill out their actual spelling. Justice Scalia also did not spell them out in his oral announcement of the decision." His written opinion, in a case dealing with uses of those four-letter words during performance awards broadcasts involving celebrities, took a swipe at “foul-mouthed glitteratae from Hollywood.” Read more »

The would-have-been blockbuster, Wanted, starring  James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, and Angelina Jolie, came and went without too much of a to-do , at least amongst our bloggers and movie buffs locally, and I can’t really say I’m too surprised.  While it was a decent action flick, it did borrow heavily from movies like the Matrix, the oft-forgotten gem, Equilibrium, and even Fight Club to an extent.  But I’m Read more »
