This comes to us from friends in Austin, Texas who like to celebrate Christmas their own way…by decorating the neighborhood cacti. We’re never one to begrudge a good cactus decoration, so kudos to the residents of south Texas for becoming creative with the cacti in the area. Who needs a Christmas tree when you’ve got a cactus?

Do you think you have what it takes to be the “toughest cowboy”? Twelve real life cowboys are going to be given the chance to win the title of “toughest cowboy” in a reality show of the same name that will air on Spike TV. The competition will work in the following manner:

These fearless cowboys must ride in three dangerous disciplines each night - bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, and bull riding - an unprecedented test of endurance in modern rodeo competition. One competitor will be eliminated each week in a sudden elimination bull ride match, with the ultimate Toughest Cowboy Champion winning the deed to a spectacular ranch in the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming.

Produced by Mark Burnett of Survivor and The Apprentice fame, looks like the cowboys of the world will have the perfect outlet to show viewers just what amazing athletes they really are. And how snappy they dress.

There are countless women in film and television that are stunningly beautiful. However, there are very few that appear to be grounded in reality or have an tiny bit of common sense. One starlet that has her head on strait is Jennifer Aniston. She seems to be the type of woman that you can kick back with and polish off a few coldies. At 40 Miss Aniston hasn’t missed a beat and the latest issue of GQ magizine is the perfect illustration of that fact.

I think you will agree - Jennifer Aniston looks stunning in a Necktie. Maybe it’s just me but I would have preferred to see her in our new Horny Toad Necktie. Again, maybe it’s just me.

You have to have thick skin to deal with the constant harrasment by papparazzi and every other jerk that wants to be in your business.

When somebody’s following you in a car and you don’t know if they’re a crazy fan with a gun in their hand or they’re a paparazzo, that same fear goes through you.

Keep up the good work Jennifer. Oh, and if you ever dump John Mayer feel free to give me a call. I’ll hop on my horse and be there quicker than you can say “Crappy Music”.
