Ric Flair: Thank you for the “WOOOOOOOO!”
Image Source: WWE.com I couldn’t think of the right words to describe “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair right now. It’s just so unreal that the 36-year career of “The Man” has ended after he was defeated by “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XXIV last March 30th. Though I know it was bound to happen, I still get goosebumps just seeing the photos of his emotional final WWE match; the way he staged his retirement, a “career...
Pacquiao-Marquez II: is business really finished?

Just to clarify things, the cop was trying to apprehend two would-be smut-robbers and not because he was going gaga over Maria Ozawa or something. More here: Mainichi Daily News
Hare Hare Yukai
You got that right, another version of the infamous Haruhi dance, from the anime Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu. Only this time performed by our all-time favorite Cebu Prison inmates. It’s a bit on the dark side as it is a night time performance (practice?) but you can still see the star formation and the moves of the inmates moving to the beat of the music. I seriously think that their choreographer is an otaku. Link discovery...
