I own a Martin Guitar. I was searching on Martin's website yesterday and they list a whole bunch of people who use/endorse Martin guitars. John Mayer is one of them, which is pretty cool. He even has his own guitar, but it costs a cool $4500. For the average guy like me, that guitar is out of reach. You'd think John Mayer would make a cheaper guitar. Come on, even the Laybron James shoes don't cost that much, and everybody wants a pair, except me of course. But it would be cool to hold one of those bad boys someday. The guitar I mean. Who cares about Laybron.

Everybody is talking about the Justin Timberlake/Janet Jackson scandal. It's sad to see that made the front page of every newspaper in America. Oh yea, there's a whole bunch of terrorist attacks worldwide, a Presidential election, and Mad Cow, but I suppose Janet Jackson showing 80% of her right breast is more important (.8 breast for all you math wizards). This is starting to get ridiculous. All these "singers" are trying to one up the next whore, I mean singer. If Britney shows her tummy, then Christina shows more tummy. If JLo shoes her butt, then Howard Stern shows more butt. We all know this wasn't an "accident" like they tried to play it off. I don't "accidentally" go up to my female friends and rip off their shirts so they can be exposed (although it's crossed my mind many times). But Janet Jackson has to do this kind of stunt during a halftime Superbowl show where millions of children worldwide are watching live. If my 8 year old son was watching the Superbowl with me on tv during that fiasco and asked me what that was, what am i supposed to say? "Um, son, that was 80% of Janet Jackson's breast, now go brush your teeth." I'd prefer that she'd do something like that in a movie theater or at Arby's where nobody really cares. I guarantee male singers will start doing stunts like this next. On the next Superbowl halftime show, 50 Cent will rip off his boxers and expose 80% of a ball. Or even worse, this Janet/Justin "feud" will go on for every Superbowl. It will be like a story, where each person gets to rip off a piece of clothing, so Janet gets to rip off Justin's sock next year.

Every sport is getting a bad rap. Football has this. Baseball has Pete Rose. Basketball has the Portland Trailblazers. Soccer has Brandy Chastain. Golf has Tiger Woods (I hear he smokes weed before every tournament. Ok, I just made that up). The only sport that hasn't ruined its reputation yet is lacrosse, mainly because nobody cares about lacrosse.
