He challenged me to what, now?

When Taylor Lautner needed a new trailer to use as a dressing room during the making of the latest installment of the Twilight series, he turned to custom RV dealer Brent McMahon’s shop, McMahon’s RV in Irvine, California.  When the $300,000 RV didn’t show up on time or in the promised condition, Lautner’s people took McMahon to court, filing a $40,000 breach of contract lawsuit.  However, the 49-year-old McMahon doesn’t believe the case needs to go in front of the court, and he’s got an alternate plan.  In order to settle the lawsuit, RV dealer Brent McMahon has challenged Taylor Lautner to a push-up contest, winner take all.  Or rather, winner donates to charity.

I wonder if McMahon has actually seen Taylor Lautner.  I mean, this kid is absolutely shredded.  Not only does he have killer biceps, he’s also, you know, not pushing 50.  Challenging him to a push-up contest might make for good promotion, but it’s not the smartest way to actually get the lawsuit resolved.  Unless, of course, you’re willing to fork over $40,000 to get the name McMahon’s RV in every newspaper in the country.

“McMahon RV’s response to our client’s legitimate claim further demonstrates the lack of professionalism that Mr. McMahon, his company and his employees have exhibited from the outset, and that compelled the filing of this lawsuit in the first place,” sniffed Lautner’s legal eagles.  McMahon’s legal team has promised to vigorously defend the lawsuit in court, unless of course Lautner accepts the challenge.  It makes for good TV for the new Twilight-themed reality shows in the works!

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
