Former Misfit Connie Leggett, long known for her penchant for picking Big Ten Teams, has jumped into fourth place by choosing Villanova to make it all the way to the Final Four. Should Michigan State beat Louisville today, Leggett will almost certainly clinch the title.

Irby, Team McGowan Surge Towards Lead
Knoxville (AP) - Clay "Multiple Entry" Irby has overcome a sluggish start to post a perfect Elite Eight, and now finds himself alone in sixth place with an excellent shot of correctly guessing all four final four teams. Our field reporter Mark Worthington caught up with the Clayster early this morning.
MW: Sixth? I don't believe it.
CI: I know. Pretty impressive, huh? The South and Midwest killed. If I had gotten all the games I missed I'd be in first place.
MW:
CI: My nose is bleeding.
MW: That's because you are so high in the standings and you aren't used to the altitude.
CI:
MW: Or you're on the island with the Lost cast. If the latter, will please ask Juliet (who is quite the babe) what the hell is going on? No one ever asks her any questions but clearly she knows a lot more than she is saying.
CI: Is there a billing code for that?
Team McGowan remains perched in second and third place, respectively, the strongest showing in tournament history by a married couple. Reporter John Bailes had a chance to speak to the young couple.
JB: Gosh darn it! How are you beating me?
MM: Pretty simple really: More cowbell.
JB: Some have suggested that if the standings remain where they are you might qualify as a Biggest Loser winning couple.
WM: Who said that?
JB: One guess.
MM: Grrrrrrrrr.
JB: If you win is there any idea how you'll spend the winnings?
MM: Big "if" - but I think it'll go towards shoes.
WM: Good answer.
MM: That's what you told me to say. Now can I go watch Superbad?

This Just In - But Not From Vegas
Dear Greg,
I am almost certainly NOT one of the Blue Man Group. Also, I'd like to point out I am in FIFTH place in the tournament. That's a pretty strong showing given the many demands on my time. That's much better than Bob Freeman or John Gargis, neither of whom I have seen since last night.
Sincerely,
Danny

Who brings a samurai sword to a pub?
I am guessing the fight looked something like this:

Charles Russell (28), of Whitechapel Road, Dublin 15 was remanded in custody pending sentence after pleading guilty to intentionally or recklessly causing Peter Rogers serious harm at The Deputy Mayor Pub, Meekstown on January 13, 2008.

A Confederacy of Dunces
Fortunately they are in Sweden.
Let's review. Policeman discovers convicted pedophile planning to open a center for disabled youth. Policeman points out this may not be such a good idea. Policeman fined for defamation.
Yet people wonder why we have problems in the world.
I'll use this opportunity to remind everyone that almost 400 YEARS AGO no less an authority than Williams Shakespeare wrote, "First thing we do is kill all the lawyers."
We never learn, do we?
A Swedish police officer who blew the whistle on a convicted paedophile’s plans to start a youth education centre has been fined for defamation.
In the summer of 2007, policeman Kent Eriksen met the man in question and later learned that he had been sent to prison for molesting a 13-year-old boy.
Eriksen subsequently heard through an acquaintance that the same man was planning to open the education centre for young people.
Altogether, the convicted paedophile had received about 6 million kronor ($743,000) from the fund to launch an education centre for young people with special needs.
According to the Expressen newspaper, the man had been convicted for luring a 13-year-old boy from a public swimming pool with the promise of a chance to ride on the man’s motorcycle.
The man then took the boy to his home and sexually molested him. In the coming months, the man took the boy to his home and several occasions, where he had both oral and anal sex with the boy.
When police raided the man’s home, they found pictures of child pornography in the man’s computer as well as pornographic videos featuring children.
The man claimed the boy was lying about the abuse and that the child pornography in the apartment wasn’t his, but the court rejected the man’s claims.
While government officials were thankful to receive the police officer’s tip, and consequently cut off funding for the project, Eriksen’s attempt to be a Good Samaritan resulted in charges of defamation.
“Viewed objectively, therefore, it was not justifiable to bring the conviction to the attention of the Inheritance Fund,” wrote the court.
Eriksen was ordered to pay a total of 80,000 kronor, including attorney fees, compensation to the paedophile, interest, and a fine of 48,000 kronor.

Blundering Afghan Suicide Bomber Blows Up 6 Militants
First, good job!
Second, if you're an Islamic suicide bomber trying to blow up soldiers, but instead blow your buddies up, do you still go to Paradise?
Or do they prorate it so you only get 12 ugly virgins instead of the regular 72 hot ones?

Dude, Where's My White House?
Did. Not. See. This. Coming.
It's not like there are any big issues facing the country or anything.
When the White House put out a call for town hall questions, it might not have been expecting this.
The more than 92,000 people who responded either have Cheech and Chong senses of humor or there is a deep concern in America — undetected by the media — about the decriminalization of marijuana, its possible use for medicinal purposes and its potential as a new source of tax revenue.
Given the opportunity to say what’s really on their minds without going through the filter of the mainstream media, people “buzzed up” a series of questions that seemed to suggest broad interest in legalizing marijuana and taxing it.
It's not like there are any big issues facing the country or anything.
This Just In
I never would have guessed it.
You know, that gives me an idea! It's kind of crazy, but it just might work. What if we organized our whole society around the principle that hard work would be rewarded?
Nah. Lottery tickets and reality TV are probably better long term options.
Many people assume that superior intelligence or ability is a key to success. But more than three decades of research shows that an overemphasis on intellect or talent—and the implication that such traits are innate and fixed—leaves people vulnerable to failure, fearful of challenges and unmotivated to learn.

That Nutty Obama!
Let me see if I get this straight.
Obama says we have to get health care costs under control in order to have prosperity. Okay. Nobody, not even the doctors, really likes the current health care system.
The answer, as he said last night, is a national health care system. If we have that, then everything will be rosy.
Except for the fact that Europe already has nationalized health care and its financial troubles are worse than ours, I'd say it's a good plan.

In Which I Recall Moments from My Past
When the boys were little I used to make up stories to tell them at bedtime. I had this whole alternate history version of "Where the Wild Things Are" in which the creatures were Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Jesse Jackson, et al.
I still think I woiuld like to retire and write children's stories because so many suck these days. (Ever read "Everyone Poops"? Enough said.)
Children stories are supposed to have sharp edges and teach harsh lessons. None of this kuumbaya can't we all get along crap.
Anyway, I was researching some story lines over the weekend, and I need your help. Which story should I write, based on the title?
1. The Adventures of Covan the Brown-haired
2. Asmund and Signy
3. Beauty and Pock Face
4. The Death of Koschei the Deathless
5. The Enchanted Pig
6. The Giant Who Had Yes, Yes in his Eyes But No Nose on his Face
These are all real stories, of course But if you copy one guy, it's plagiarism. Copy seven guys and it's research.

The West Michigan Whitecaps recently announced their new concession items for 2009, and this list is indeed highlighted by a $20 hamburger. Believe it or not, this burger is actually a good value: it weighs 5/3rds of a pound, and can feed a family of four!
The "Fifth Third Burger" (so-called because the Whitecaps play in Fifth Third Ballpark) is 5/3 pounds of grilled hamburger topped with lettuce, tomato, nacho cheese, chili, salsa and crunched tortilla chips. Saddled with the heroic task of holding it all together is an eight-inch sesame seed bun.
Feeds a family of four....or one Michigander.
Remids of KFC's classic "Bowl'o Crap." We start with a generous serving of our creamy mashed potatoes, layered with sweet corn and loaded with bite-sized pieces of crispy chicken. Then we drizzle it all with our signature home-style gravy and top it off with a shredded three-cheese blend. Then we add fries, tater tots and, of course, catsup. We top it off with a delicious frozen dairy treat and some whipped cream, and it's all your favorite flavors coming together in one meal! (Subject to availability of other crap)

History Repeats Itself
A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a fisherman in a boat below.
She shouted to him,'Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, 'You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above the water elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
She rolled her eyes and said, 'You must be a Republican.' 'I am,' replied the man. 'How did you know?' 'Well,' answered the balloonist, 'everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me.'
The man smiled and responded, 'You must be a Democrat.'
'I am,' replied the balloonist. 'How did you know?'
'Well,' said the man, 'you don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault.'
This joke is from the 1950s.

Recap (Not for the Faint of Heart)
We may not make SportsCenter's Top Ten Recap, but this isn't cable. Speaking of those who have hit rock bottom and continued to dig....
10. Having apparently tuned to ESPN2 by mistake, Kelly Fitzpatrick thought this was the ESPN Wrestling Championship. Only explanation for her abysmal showing.
9. Todd Bealer is now officially available for organ donation.
8. Dave Young, who keeps a picture of Houdini locking his keys in his car on his desk, glibly noted that "You can't have everything. There isn't that much space in my office for storage anyway."
7. Steve Richards, we reject your challenge. You are no challenge. Seriously.
6. Mark King. Obviously distracted by thoughts of cattle breeding as he made his picks.
5. Traveling at the speed of dark we find longtime reader Allison Pressley mired in 28th place. Allison responds: "If Barbie is so popular, then why do you have to buy her friends?"
4. So deep is his shame that former champion Glenn "The second 'N' is silent" Sharp is considering adding an 'e' to the end of his name.
3. Christie Knapper blames it all on her pregnancy. "When I'm not in my right mind, my left mind gets pretty crowded."
2. Andrew Hartung was philosophic about his bracket, noting "I think I'll try skydiving next year, because if at first you don't succeed...."
And at the top of our list is the always surprising Jill Green, who has dominated early but is doomed to fail like an Obama cabinet nomination because she picked Oklahoma State to win it all. Proving once again that the problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

So Where Are We
Team McGowan has rocked the muffin so far. Very impressive. Our field correspondent Leigh Anne Joseph caught up with IT couple late last night.
LAJ: I don't know what I am supposed to say.
MM: Just kneel before our collective greatness.
LAJ:
MM: We're going all the way this year.
LAJ: Aren't you, you know, like reigning supreme at number two?.
WM: Fair point. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
MM: No cheese! Damn it, Whitney!
LAJ: You know what they say about being number 2, right? As useless as rubber lips on a woodpecker.
MM: Or Kites!
LAJ: Something like that anyway.
