THE NEW SUPERMAN
The new Superman has been cast for the fifth installment of the man of steel. The man who accurately created the X-man universe, director, Bryan Singer hand-picked the virtually unknown actor -- Brandon Routh.

Brandon Routh once was on the soap One Life to Live but otherwise a bunch of guest spots. His official site is down, because they couldn't handle all the hits.

Also confirmed to be involved with the film is That 70's Show, Topher Grace as Jimmy Olsen and The O.C.'s, Mischa Barton as Lois Lane.

CAPTAIN KIRK Sings Again
William Shatner is a pop culture super hero. Radio loves the Shatner album - Has Been is #1 on the FMQB specialty radio album chart and "Common People" is #1 on the singles chart - these are charts measuring airplay on the new music shows nationwide. Believe it or not, the album is produced by Ben Folds (who is amazing) and has major guest appearances like Aimee Mann, Joe Jackson and Henry Rollins.

Listen to Has Been and tell us what you think.

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
