New QB for the Oakland Raiders
The coach had put together the perfect team for the Oakland Raiders. The only thing missing was a good quarterback. He had scouted all the colleges and even the Canadian and European Leagues, but he could not find a ringer who could ensure a Super Bowl victory. Then one night, while watching CNN, he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan. In one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghan Muslim soldier with a truly incredible arm. He threw a hand- grenade straight into a window from 85 yards away. Then he threw another grenade from 60 yards down a chimney, and then hit a passing car going 80 miles per hour. I've got to get this guy!" said the coach to himself "He has the perfect arm!" So he locates and brings the young Afghan to the States and teaches him the great game of football and, sure enough, the Raiders go on to win the Super Bowl. The young Afghan is hailed as a hero of football, and when the coach asks him what he wants, all the young man wants to do is call his mother. "Mom," he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl!" "I don't want to talk to you," the old Muslim woman says. "You betrayed us. You are not my son!" "Mother, I don't think you understand, pleads the son, "I've just won the greatest sporting event in the world!" "No! Let me tell you," his mother retorts, "at this very moment there are gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Last week, your two brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and I have to keep your sister in the house so she doesn't get assaulted!" The old lady pauses, then tearfully says "I will never forgive you for making us move to Oakland."

2. Refined pictures of Clooney don't bother me.
He's as much of a man's man as Hollywood will allow these days. 
3. You're gonna have to up the ante for me to change the AV.
