that's a wrap

Ladies, Johnny Depp may soon be inside you.

Trojan has offered him a $10 million deal to become the "face" of the popular condom manufacturer, according to this article. An excerpt:

Trojan bosses believe “Rubber Johnny” would not only expand sales in the US but also help inspire an anti-AIDS campaign to send free condoms to third world countries.

The Pirates Of The Caribbean star also holds huge sway with teen fans and one slogan the ad executives are playing with is: “Stand up with Johnny for safer sex.”

Can't wait to get in on the pirate's booty!

The fact that two individually delicious flavors exist doesn't necessarily mean they have to be combined.

Case in point:

1. Pizza-flavored beer, which you can read about here.

AND...

2. Meat-flavored water, which comes in varieties ranging from Hungarian gulash to peking duck. Check it out here.

Thirsty?

Happy Monday!

My family returned to California safe and sound, although my nerves are still recovering from a week of trying to make everyone happy. Very stressful.

The visit ended with a trip to the Mall of Georgia, an Atlanta-area destination that remains one of my sole reasons for staying in this state. Seriously. It's amazing.

I had mixed emotions as I sent my fam off to the Birmingham airport. On one hand, I was happy that I didn't have to hide my copies of Playgirl for another week.

But on the other, I was a little sad. It's kind of like how when you're riding a bike without training wheels, you only fall off after you realize your dad's hands aren't behind you anymore. I've done fine living away from my entire fam for nearly two years, but it's only when I realize how valuable their help is that I truly miss them.

Blame that realization for the 24 minutes I spent listening to my Boyz II Men CD on the ride home. Then I abruptly switched to Eazy-E.

take that, zack morris


The permed mullet's gone, but the six-pack abs, apparently, are here to stay.

Mario Lopez is co-releasing a fitness book, this article reports. I understand the prospect of putting your beer gut in AC Slater's hands might seem a little daunting. But consider the factors contributing to his physical fitness ethos:

*Years pushing Screech into lockers

*Strenuous workout sessions with Jessie practicing for Bayside's Casey Kasem dance-off

*A stint flexing his muscles to pick up poop while hosting "Pet Star"

*An entire season mustering enough charisma to spur rumors of a heterosexual relationship with his "Dancing With the Stars" partner

*One word: Spandex
