Where Do Flavor of Love Contestants Come From?...


Answer......my current hometown of southern Maryland. In some ways...SoMD is even more trifling than western PA. I saw this post recently on somd.com, which amazingly, I never thought to use as blog fodder, but is quickly becoming blog gold.

Hear me now, and believe me later...this is the norm for 'ol SoMD. Hurting girls who want to be on Flavor of Love. They're all over. Get 'em before they're elevated to Hollywood skankieness.

If you'd like to vote for SunneShyne...then go here.

Yeah boyyyeeeee!

Hazaa!



More SoMD news. There's a Jousting Tournament in Calvert County, MD. Yes. Jousting. What's even more appalling is that it's the 141st annual tournament the county has held.

That means sometime shortly after the Civil War ended, southern Maryland residents (which by my calculations, based on current population of southern Maryland, would have been about 8 people), got bored and decided it would be fun to poke each other with big pointy sticks.

141 years later...these crazies are still at it. For fun, check out the Maryland Jousting Tournament Association. Here, you'll find a list of former MD state champions such as Mary Lou Bartram, featured here on the right. According to her page, Mary Lou was single (shocker). Mary Lou also, "enjoyed a successful and constructive career in the field of corrections. She was the first woman in the United States named as a warden of an all male, maximum security prison."

Yikes! Ha!

Doomed...


And now, some news from my "new" hometown area of southern MD. Let's all say hello to Johnna Parlett. Johnna, age 6, recently qualified for the 2008 Kids Golf World Championship.

Despite the fact that this kids childhood will likely be ruined, as is the case with all child stars, you have to admit, she does have a pretty sweet swing.

Ok...who am I kidding. I'm jealous...
