LEISURE SUIT LARRY
Back in 1987 one of the first video games to put adult humor and images into a game worth playing was Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards. Well the sequel is here for most of the game platforms (PlayStation 2, Xbox etc) and this time your job is to seek out women and do whatever it takes to win their affection. Searches for Larry were up 145% this week. Oh wait...the title for the new game...Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude

CONSERVATIVE ICE CREAM

They call themselves the conservative alternative to Ben & Jerry's. With ice cream flavors like Iraqi Road, Rush Mallow or G.I. Love Vanilla you quickly understand why...

You can even order the Star Spangled Ice Cream in bulk.

BIGFOOT FEUD

The East Coast and the West Coast have been at odds for decades. In the 1990s it was the infamous feud between the East and West Coast Rappers. The feud culminated with the murder of West Coast Rapper Tupac Shakur and probable retribution killing of celebrated East Coast Rapper, the Notorious B.I.G. To this day both murders are unsolved.

Well the next big feud is between the West Coast Bigfoot hunters vs. East Coast Bigfoot hunters. I kid you not...For more on the BIG feud

CAPOEIRA

Capoeira is destined to be the next wellness craze.

Capoeira (kah-po-ay-ra) is a 400-year-old martial art that was developed in Brazil by African slaves. The slaves perfected the moves back in Africa as a way to evade capture by traders. When they did arrive in Brazil, it allowed them to defend themselves at times. According to passionate Capoeiristas (people do Capoeira) this is more than just another martial art, as it is an art of expression, play and personal interaction.

According to the mestre I spoke to Mestre Jelon says that Capoeira works out 100 percent of the body, bringing all types of people together to transcend martial arts, and on its deepest level, is a philosophical framework for approaching and interacting with others. It's a "deep and holistic art form that pushes the person to the limits - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually."

VOTERGASM
I kid you not. Here is the deal...register new voters and encourage young people to pledge to have Election Night sex with other voters, and withhold sex from non-voters until the next presidential election.

JUDY BLUME
Today's column is about author Judy Blume. Just about everyone I speak to remembers reading one of her many books.


One of the most impressive thing about this 66-year-old grandmother, is that she still speaks to young people in a way that few others due.

A quick glance at her guest book shows you fans from all around the world and every age...

What is your earliest Judy Blume memory?
