One of my favorite television shows is Entourage and I always spend too much time surfing around looking for reliable sites that can stream Entourage episodes online for free. Many of us would like to watch on the HBO website but that is not possible for everyone, especially if you live outside the US. I’ve put together a list of my favorite sites I visit to watch Entourage online, new episodes and old, and you have the ability to rate them yourself or add more through the comments section. Enjoy!
Sidereel.com:
I find this site to be one of the most consistent, reliable, and relatively free of annoying advertising and spyware.

If you are a big fan of The Onion online newspaper (www.theonion.com) and have a taste for their online news videos you can stream from their website, then you will be pleased to the point of paralysis to hear Fox is releasing The Onion Movie on DVD on June 3rd. How is it I haven’t heard about this until now?! 
From The Onion Movie press release:
“From the sharp minds of Robert Siegel and Todd Hanson, long-time editors and writers for The Onion newspaper and website, The Onion Movie presents a hard look at world events, cultural fads and curious human behavior, reporting on topics that most news programs wouldn’t dare touch. The movie features award winning anchor Norm Archer as he presents some of the most recent controversial news stories including American Automobile’s recall of all cars featuring neck-belts and legislation by Congress that limits smoking within U.S. borders to a single 10×10 room in Des Moines. ”
Check out the trailer here!
But wait, there’s more - check out The Onion’s favorite pop sensation, Melissa Cherry’s Myspace page, or YouTube channel.
Even a Flikr page is available so you can peruse photos from the DVD.

I modified my “bushisms” widget code and added a collection of Yogi Berra quotes to it. Add this widget to your sidebar and every time you load/refresh your page you get a new quote from Yogi berra. Simply right-click here: yogiisms.php2, and save the plugin, drop it into the wp-content/plugins directory of your Wordpress blog, then rename it to yogiisms.php. The plugin was originally modified from a google widget (google search I think) and can easily be edited to hold quotes from your favorite people.

This story is meant to both entertain and educate. Don’t get mad at me - I’m not the author 
But if you have suggestions for plot development I’d be happy to pass them on.
…………………. Part 1 ……………………………
In a land before geology, when thoughts were frowned upon, the light shone down through some fucking sweet tree-tops. In the soft moss a wood nymph and his idiot friends were frolicking. Where they came from nobody knew, but nobody asked either. No, asking was not permitted at all in this place - not permitted by fear of death. Nobody knew why they feared asking questions so much because nobody asked. If they had, they would have found their fear was completely unfounded - such idiots they were.
The wood nymphs spent morning to night frolicking and dancing and sprinkling pixie dust on each other. The pixie dust came from a land far-off, beyond the horizon, and it was like crack to them. They took long sniffs of the pixie dust and accused each other of stealing things.
Not all wood nymphs were the same. Some wore pink overalls and some wore smocks all the colors of the rainbow. Those nymphs in the smocks did not usually frolic with those in the overalls and, in fact, they were often quite hostile to one another. Now and then, in the peace and calm of the fucking wicked foresty floor a tiny shout could be heard. If one listened closely they may hear a wood nymph in the pink overalls yell, “You bitch-ass fucking smock-loving shitpoo! Yeah, you in the smock! I saw you steal that bag of pixie dust!”
Pixie dust was a source of problems for the wood nymphs and caused much strife and hurt in their otherwise magically stupid little kingdom. One red-smocked young wood nymph named Mush, after waking up in his waterbed of early morning dew and discovering it polluted with his own vomit, vowed to never use pixie dust again. Deep down in his small little heart, however, he knew that later that day in the heat of the afternoon sun, the annoying frolicking would take its toll and he would give in to the temptation of the dust. He tried to make himself believe that before dusk he would not be accusing anyone within earshot of stealing a variety of things, many things he fully knew he had never owned in the first place, but the effort seemed futile.
“I wish somebody would just kill me,” he sighed.
In the lush green early morning glow, Mush prepared for his day. He rolled off his leaf and slid down the side of the slippery sapling, the place he liked to call home (though so did many other accusatory wood nymphs). He went to his kitchen, shaded by the umbrella top of a mushroom and sat at his pebble table.
“Computer, activate coffee pot,” he commanded.
