As we predicted last week, Robin's losing streak continued today as she
took the same pick as Crackhead Bob for the Mike Walker Gossip game.
Nice pick Robin and your streak is now at two weeks in a row.

Howard played a news clip today that mentioned former FCC Chairman
Michael Powell might be taking over for retired commissioner
Paul Tagliabue.
According to Robin, they need a business man to keep baseball
going. Artie then pointed out that Tagliabue was the commissioner
for the NFL, not MLB. (5-23)

Robin was back to her losing ways today. Her luck ran out playing
the Mike Walker Gossip game this morning and we feel this is going to be
the start of a very long losing streak. (5-18)

Howard talked about the rumor that the new Superman movie cost upwards
of $300 million dollars. He explained that the reason is all the
special effects and a minute of film can cost $1 million dollars.
Howard said that if the film is an hour and a half it could
cost....Robin then interrupted and said, $190 million dollars!
Let's check the figures.
An hour and a half is 90 minutes.
90 * $1 million = $90 million.
In Robin's world, 90 * $1 million = $190 million. (5-18)

Howard started the show today talking about the David Blaine "magic"
trick and how
Blaine failed to set a new world record for holding his breath.
Robin screeched, Houdini never failed!
Obviously Robin didn't do any research before making her statement:
Houdini Failed.

When talking about how much money Mission Impossible 3 made during it's
opening weekend Howard asked, how much is 48 and 70? (the totals for US
and foreign ticket sales in millions) Robin stuttered and
stammered, we guess she taking off her shoes or looking for calculator
to add the two enormous numbers together and said, a little over what,
112? (5-8)

Today Howard played a clip of "Theatan Seven" Tom Cruise saying he
could run seventeen miles an hour. Benji calculated that out to
Cruise running a mile in three minutes & 52 seconds. Fred Googled
and found that the current world record time is 3:43. Robin then
proclaimed that Cruise's time was faster then that of the world record.
In Robin's world, 3:43 > 3:52. (5-4)

This just in from Robin Quivers......Jason Lee was the son of Bruce Lee
that died during the filming of The Crow.
And all this time we thought it was
Brandon Lee.

Howard said today that since Beth was out of town lat night, he watched
his favorite adult movie, The Devil In Miss Jones. He marveled at
the fact that when he put the movie in, it began playing from where he
last stopped watching, even though he had taken the movie out of the DVD
player. Robin said, that's not possible.
We were amazed that Robin wouldn't know almost all DVD players include
the feature, Resume Play, since she is such an authority on all topics.
But just so she will know, Resume Play will let you begin watching from
where you stopped the movie last - even on up to six movies if you have
a
Sony DVD player. (5-3)

Robin showed off her sports knowledge today with this gem: Nobody in the
Major Leagues has ever thrown back to back no hitters.
Artie quickly corrected Robin by informing her that
Johnny Vander Meer had accomplished the feat in 1938. (5-2)
