And it wasn't until about 11:55 p.m. May 16 that I learned the identity of the group performing that odd subway night overseas.

The event takes place in a subway car in France, I believe in Paris. The song is a Phil Collins staple, "In the Air Tonight," performed by Naturally 7. (commentary: I don't believe this video has in any way helped their what-appears-to-be mediocre career)

My relationship with that song is a little odd. I fell in love with it a couple of years ago when I was watching an NBA playoff game on TBS. I think it was TBS, but it doesn't really matter.

They played the game and I loved the drumline. I think its almost everyone's attracting factor to that song.

Then I did my half-assed amount of research. My buddy told me the story about the guy actually seeing the murder was true, then Phil Collins invited him to the show and sang "In the Air Tonight" for the first time.

Turns out, if the story hasn't changed, that his tale was exactly that - B.S.

Then I dug a little deeper.

One of my favorite musicians of all time, Eminem, played off Phil Collins' song on "Stan."

I listened to both trying to actually determine if the story behind the song was true. I thought it was, and for a couple of years stood by my assessment.

Sure, I probably start a chain reaction of lying song history, but who cares. Most of the people I remember telling were idiots. (What does that say about the teller?)

:(

So back to the video. Watch and enjoy. Maybe you'll like it, maybe not. They group reminds me of a local group -- once you google the actual group -- of Of Scripture.

The three family members of Of Scripture are a talent. I haven't heard from them in a while, but I do know I have one of their CDs circulating around my home.

Back to the video -- again.

I thought this was too good, thus I pass it on. Enjoy.

And don't get fooled by the "King of Swing" thing. It has nothing to do with venturing outside of a marriage. You're safe to watch, so pay attention to the fedora.

Here's the video of Cowboy Quarterback Tony Romo attempting to sing the seventh-inning stretch at a recent Chicago Cubs baseball game.

And to think just a couple of months ago I was a regular Romo-sexual.

I'll just say the guy is no Harry Caray. He might have committed Harry Caray by trying to belt out the lyrics, but that's about it.

When I saw the Cubs play the Dodgers two years ago I was treated by the performance of the one and only Tommy Lasorda. He tried and he passed. He did get a couple of boos -- not as many as Romo -- but he did the song some justice.

I still remember that crazy pot Ozzy Osbourne completely screwing the song up about three years ago. Its a perfect example of what should be run for a kids staying off drugs commercial.

I really liked the ending of the performance when it appears he's actually trying to audition for American Idol.

He should stick to dating hot chicks, gambling, playing quarterback and starring in Diet Pepsi Max commercials.

Or maybe he should try that stuff in Arlington. It might actually get people to go the Rangers games.

Grand Theft Auto IV, developed by Rockstar Games, is a blast. But, since I'm adult, I can can enjoy playing the game with a clean conscience.

I don't have to worry about what my parents will think about me. I just have to worry about what the wife thinks while I play the game.

Anyway, back to the game:

The main character the user controls (Niko) can drive drunk, fly a helicopter and, yes, still enjoy a "cup of coffee" within the vast world of Liberty City.

Grand Theft Auto has it all. I'd say its a version of Leisure Suit Larry evolved to the 21st century with guns and more than enough ammo.

I wasn't able to play the game online so I'll reserve judgment for later. I do imagine that the online version is just as stellar.

From what I remember about the previous three installments, GTA IV has a brain. The user has to make decisions.

Mainly the timeless, age-old question "should I let him live?"

Making the decision to assassinate another character is about as easy to do as going to breakfast and asking for eggs over-easy or scrambled.

The cars are fast and the cop cars, rightfully stolen, are faster.

I couldn't figure out the helicopter. But I did get into it a fly it straight up after I learned the cheat codes. Try the cheat codes only if you're like me. Since I rented the game I wanted it was fast as possible. I like to worry about the story details and the "integrity" of the game later.

My character died a horrible death when I mistakenly abandoned ship about 1000 feet in the air.

The body didn't bounce like I thought it would. Splat would better characterize the description.

The missions are pretty easy. The adrenaline pumped up as I got farther along in the game and when the wanted level increased so did my heart rate.

Sex is still very much a part of the game. So be careful moms and dads. You don't want little Johnny picking up a prostitute and taking here to wherever.

The best thing about the game is the violence. It always has been and always will be. It's a little rush when you shoot someone on a video game.

Don't like the way a stranger talked back to you, pow, right between the eyes.

The weapons available (rocket launchers, oozies, AK-47, Molotov cocktails) are a dynamic mix of destruction.

I say at least rent the game to see what all the fuss is about. It plays out like an extended movie.

And if you get hooked, which I was recently diagnosed with a case of the GTAs, go buy the game and don't sleep for a few days.

Isn't that why the modern work corporation invented "sick" days?

Who would have thought that a Quizno's sub can kill, or that a Chili's Awesome Blossom can kick start a heart attack?

Here is a link to a Men's Health article I found on the web.

Hungry yet?

Is there a rice shortage in the U.S.?

So many questions, so many answers. All I know is that my one box of Uncle Ben's in my cupboard is going to be there for a while.

Watching the news yesterday made we want to go to Sam's and get greedy over rice. I thought there my be Nintendo Wii Christmas lines.

I didn't go. I don't plan on eating that much rice.

So had bad will it really get. How about one person buys a bag, the selling business collects that bag from the purchaser and the company sends it to people who sound like they really need it.

Here's a fun little video I thought some might enjoy. And of course its from Comedy Central/Jon Stewart's vault.

I love Jon Stewart. He is my current man crush.

Barack, Hillary and McCain have faced on pretty big stages but none as big as under the lights and glimmer of the WWF (I still use the F and not the E simply because that's what I grew up on.)

Above is Jon Stewart's spin - and his writers - on the funny little situation. I'd imagine they thought they needed an in with the really red necked folk down south.

Well, it won me over with a one, two, three.

Cowboys fans will walk away from Day 1 happy. What will two first round picks do to a franchise on the cusp?

Propel them into the Super Bowl? Unlikely, but it could happen. They just need someone that stays injury free and can make a solid if not spectacular contribution.

They need a WR of the future and we all know Chad Johnson, of the Bungals, is still out there to be had.

The Bengals don't want to let him go, from what I've read on the internet, but why keep a player only to fine him until it hurts for not showing up at training camp?

I say forget about Chad Johnson. Sure, he'd be nice to have with a star on the side of his helmet, but I don't think he's worth a draft pick that could lead to 10+ years of cornerstone play.

And I really hope they don't take Felix Jones. Wait a while and nab someone like Jamaal Charles in the second, possibly third, round.

There is a lot of running backs to be had.

Why not go Limas Sweed and Kenny Phillips. Safetys are hard to come by, especially the great ones, and Phillips has the "U" pedigree to become a good NFL safety.

Sweed's healthy time at UT should be convincing enough to skeptics to select him.

Prediction 2

Houston will make solid choices. It seems they've continued to get better at collecting talent over the years. Not a lot of their team is comprised of late selections, but they don't exactly have the system in place to develop talent at a steady pace.

Throw 'em in the fire in Houston.

I just hope they don't go after another DL.

Prediction 3

The Patriots will either hit it big with the selection of Darren McFadden, or they'll trade down and select an offensive or defensive lineman.

If the Pats do land McFadden then Jets fans will be ready to walk out of the Radio City Music Hall looking to chop off someone's head.

Prediction 4

If Matt Ryan is available for Atlanta to select, they shouldn't do it. Wait until the second round and get a winner like Chad Henne and get the best player available at No. 3.

Atlanta really needs to redo their image after the Vick debacle. I still remember the team changing their uniforms to represent a stealthier Falcon. Vick was stealth-like so the team mirrored his image.

Time to go back to the Neon Deion Falcons. I love the horrible red and black uniforms. The uniform sets the tone for the team, and now that Deangelo Hall is gone also its time to change the uniforms.

Prediction 5

I'm hearing that Jared Allen, the terror of Kansas City, is looking to relocate. He doesn't look the part, but maybe, just maybe Minnesota will trade for Allen.

Kansas City needs all the help it can get, but if a player doesn't want to play for an organization...so long, don't let the door hit ya' were the good Lord split ya.

Chiefs fans will be content with their draft. Maybe they'll be able to land Jake Long, OT from Michigan, but it seems like Long is the building block that Parcells wants to build around.

Prediction 6

By the end of the first day Saturday at least two of my predictions will make no sense.

Your thoughts?

"Juno" staring the fantastically sarcastic Ellen Page, as Juno MacGuff, sets the tone for future actresses who make light of a teenage pregnancy.

Juno gets a case of the babies when she sleeps with similarly skinny Michael Cera, as Paulie Bleeker.

Juno decides to give the kid up for an adoption and finds a deserving rich white couple in the Penny Saver, or our equivalent of the Thrifty Nickel.

Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner, as Mark and Vanessa, have wanted to become parents for as long as Vanessa has played with dolls.

But there's one problem...and I'm not going to tell you about it. Let's just say the surprise surprised the hell out of me.

I thought it was all going to be fun and babies. It wasn't and it was.

I do wish however that the film would have featured more of the zany Rainn Wilson (aka The real star of "The Office).

He shows up once as a cash register home skillet at the local five-and-dime.

Juno's dad, J.K. Simmons (Jonah Jameson from Spiderman), does a good job. Even though he never executed on his promise to "punch Paulie in the wiener."

Overall, a good movie. Now I can see why it was nominated for an Oscar. Ellen Page does a great job and despite the fact that she looks like a Olsen twin in size she has some attractive characteristics.

I find out how old she (21 years old) actually was before I commented on her hottness.

And I'm happy for the sing talker Cera. The guy was a hit in "Superbad" and he does a really good job as the thigh deodorizer in "Juno," even if he did hang on to the panties of the girl that took his virginity.

It's not wierd, but it should remain that un-talked about thing that guys do. Like the elephant in the room.

I liked the performance, but I like someone else's performance so much more.

Baseball commissioner Bud Selig announced 11 years ago that Robinson's number was being retired by all major league teams. The only player wearing No. 42 then who remains active is New York Yankees reliever Mariano Rivera," says ESPN.com.

Just in case, the motel photographs are taken from the location were Dr. King was assassinated.

Take a second and let everything sink in once your are done. There aren't many photographs here, but they can have a mighty blow once the truth of just a simple picture sinks in.

Some of these photographs, especially the final one, gave me chills. Remembering a man so great is tough to do, but it must be done.

Lil Jon -- the YEEEAAAAHHHH! man himself -- is starting a wine label. Who would have thought. Doesn't everybody like to get throwed off the wine.

For many who don't know, Lil Jon is an Atlanta rapper/producer with long dreads who has notoriously been featured in skits on Dave Chappelle's TV show. Jon might not have been there when they were recorded, but he was there in spirit.

Lil Jon has about single-word catch phrases. What, yeah, OK and something that I can't remember to include.

He's funny and an entertaining dude. He also help reinvent the pimp cup. I'll put it this way, the pimp cup is something that Indiana Jones didn't select in "The Last Crusade."

Lil Jon didn't live the life of a carpenter.

And now I'll back off the Lil Jon/Jesus references. Wait, one more, Lil Jon wants to make sure he can turn water into wine.

I'm done.

So next time you reach for a bottle of that vintage 1983 southern France delicacy - throw your hood up.

Here's the story on our website. http://www.timesrecordnews.com/news/2008/apr/04/rapper-producer-lil-jon-gets-winemaking-starts-own/
