Some of you may think that Jason Vorhees of Friday the Thirteenth fame, was the orginator of the hockey mask. Well, puck breath, that ain’t quite right. You see, it was actually a French Canadian by the name of Jacques Plante, who first donned a goaltenders face mask on November 1, 1959. And this Sunday marks the 50th anniversary since Plante debuted his facial ware – and quite the coincidence, it was exactly one day after Halloween. Read the full story

It’s a fact that All REAL guys love sports cars. Well, here’s some proof that a fast set of wheels can tune up the human engine…
I don’t need to be a plastic surgeon to appreciate a naked woman, and I don’t need to be a mechanic to appreciate the power of my car.
I love my car. It’s not the newest, and right now it’s not at its shiniest, but at nearly 200,000 miles it’s still fast… really fast. Brand new and stock, it clocked 0-60 in 6.7 seconds with a top speed of 143 mph. I’ve not tested it 0-60, but I have taken it up to 110 mph… under controlled conditions of course… and I’m sticking to THAT story… I also like to amuse my mechanic by coming up to the service desk before being called, not because I can see that they are done with my car but because I can HEAR that they are done with my car because I recognize the sound instantaneously.
When price is not a factor, if given a choice between fast-and-shiny and moderate-and-modest, your average guy is going to go for the fast and shiny every time. And now, science agrees.
Researchers at Canada’s John Molson School of Business at Concordia University in Montreal tested testosterone levels in 39 men, first after they drove an old Toyota Camry and then after driving a Porsche 911, and shock of all shocks, every single one of them had a dramatic increase in testosterone while driving the Porsche. To further prove it was the car and not just perceptions of the car, each driver and each car was tested after driving up and down an empty street and up and down a street filled with women. Studies didn’t say if the women were hot, but the testosterone levels were not affected by whether or not the men were being watched while driving.
You would need a significantly larger and more diverse test group than a mere 39 college-aged men to be considered “truly” scientific, but when a test this size is unanimous, it’s a damned good start towards being considered “fact”. I don’t know if it matters that the school shares its name with a mainstream Canadian beer though… would it be less scientific if it were conducted by an American school named “Bud”? Hard to say… but whether or not science like this will win Nobel prizes, the results are not even remotely surprising.
Psychology would probably say that this has something to do with looking good and impressing the women-folk, but I think this has more to do with satisfying the latent, primeval hunter in all guys. Looking good might attract the chicks, but speed and strength brings home the steaks… and I don’t care how much you like sex, but you can live a lot longer without sex than you can without food (no matter how hard that is to believe…)
So, now you can argue that it is good for the both of you for you to own a fast car… it’s Viagra on wheels! And science backs it up…
Now, if only science could find—and eliminate – the gene that makes women want to buy shoes…

| Born: Sharon Yvonne Stone, Meadville, Pensylvannia, March 10, 1958 (Age: 51) • Birth Sign: Pisces |

| Sharon Stone has always been known as one hell of a sexual broad, always landing the type of roles that fit this image. Just recently, at the fine age of 51, she appeared nude for a French magazine spread. And in a recent poll, something like 85% of guys still find her to be very sexy. | |||||

While she has done her share of tv and movies, I think the role that first got her noticed was as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s blonde honey wife in Total Recall. But it was her role as a nutcase, bisexual serial killer in the hit film, Basic Instinct, that won her critical acclaim. And, about her famous “beaver-shot” scene from the film, listen to Sharon’s own take…”I knew that we were going to do this leg-crossing thing and I knew that we were going to allude to the concept that I was nude, but I did not think that you would see my vagina in the scene. Later, when I saw it in the screening I was shocked. I think seeing it in a room full of strangers was so disrespectful and so shocking, so I went into the booth and slapped him and left.” One of my Stone faves is her role in the The Quick and the Dead as a sexy gunslinger out for revenge. But I think her greatest piece of acting was along side Robert De Niro in Casino where she went from a ravishing socialite, to a drugged out psychopath right before our very eyes. Okay, she’s not the looker she was 20 years ago, but really, who the hell is? At 51, I’d tap Sharon Stone in a heartbeat and I openly welcome her to the illustrious COUGAR HOF.

The letter read: Scientific studies suggest that the prefrontal regions of the brains of people who lack empathy might be underdeveloped … would you allow PETA to pay for a scan of … your brain to determine if comments and actions that seem to demonstrate a lack of empathy are the result of a physical defect?
