WORD ON THE STREET:I've run into a roadblock for this week's word on the street. My dilema is that word on the street presents many potential problems and causes for hatemail. First off, all I did was bash Ryan and imply that he was gay. If it wasn't that, it was something like porno safety and street signs, or something like that. So I am using this issue to warn everyone now. If you get offended by any of the following, please refrain from reading Word On The Street when it returns starting next week: Ryan, homosexual innuendos, masturbating beanie baby monkeys, threesomes brown belting and other graphic porno, old triplets with the last name of Williscroft, prison love, cartoon murder, farting and defacation. Consider yourself warned.




GREAT MOMENTS IN SPORTS HISTORY: Sunday afternoon, despite feeling very blah and basically hungover, I thought it would be good to get some air. So, Jeff and I went to play some golf. First sign of trouble, I didn't even have a ball to use when we got to the course. Luckily, people lose theirs all the time and I was soon on the course with my own ball. It was pretty close during the first few holes, but Jeff pulled away and ended up winning 13 holes to 5. But the highlight of it all had to go to me for murdering the ball about 30-40 yards pass the pin and scaring the group on the hole ahead of us (don't shed any tears for them though, the four of them had the collective intelligence equivalent to that of celery and cheeze whiz).

Continuing my streak of futility, Jeff and I played some one-on-one in basketball the next day and he beat me 14-12. I am beginning to think that I am no match for his height. Especially when my jump shot betrays me the way it did that game. Grrr...



SALMON AWARD: This week's winner of the salmon award goes to Jory Robinson. Jory is now the "Deputy of Gangster Love" for passing on a happy birthday message to me from Chris Hodgson who is all the way in Castlegar, the chocolate starfish of B.C.



BACK ISSUES: A lot of people have joined FunBo's House of Style through word of mouth or whatnot so they haven't seen every issue. If you ever wonder about what you've missed and are done with the current issue, now you can check out back issues. I have added links to them at the bottom of the page and they will be there every week.







SUPERBOWL: Well, sunday was the day and the superbowl is now over. I hosted the world's greatest party. There were chicken strips, there was cheese covered tortillas and there was soda. The peak attendance was a whopping six people and four people ended up watching the Ravens officially become superbowl champs winning 34-7 over the Giants. I just like to say that everyone thought the Giants would win except me (and Stephen) and well, yeah, sucks to be you.

The game itself and all it's micro-entities was amazing. The hits were awesome, the Ravens D played incredible and the halftime show was pretty good. They had this cool MTV-orchestrated skit with the acts in it and funnyman/mtv publcity whore Ben Stiller acting as a halftime show choreographer. The halftime show itself was centered around Aerosmith and of the groups performing, Nelly got the shaft by getting about 5 seconds to do his thing. Last but not least, Britney Spears was looking mighty fine in that low-cut Aerosmith t-shirt she was wearing.

After the game, all parties went home (but not before I beat Jeff at ping-pong 21-8). To see some game action, check out my Superbowl photo album with pictures I ganked from CNN/Sports Illustrated's website.

PS. Long live Ray Lewis...yeah!!!!!!



ALBUM UPDATE: I have chosen a fourth song for the album. Things are going really well. My aim is to get at least some variety of subjects or songs on it. Right now, I got about three ballads and one narrative. I advise everyone to hop on the bandwagon now because my latest creation is a classic bedroom bumper. Yeah!!!




NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION CONTEST: We're well into the first month of the new year and I don't really have a resolution. Having one regardless of how dumb or outrageous it may be is kinda important to me. So FunBo's House of Style is having a contest and I want you all to join. Everybody is encouraged to send the best idea for a new year's resolution, whether it's a serious, funny, or wacky one, I don't care. Just send 'em in, and send as many as you'd like. I will post the names of the winners and immortalize these people by letting the world know that they have a FunBo approved resolution in next week's issue. So everyone, please feel free to get cracking on those resoultions.



BABE BATTLE...THE LEGEND CONTINUES: Babe battle continues with our second matchup. Last week, Ali Landry crushed Pamela Anderson 11 votes to 2. Thanks to all who rocked the vote, keep it going. CLICK HERE TO VOTE ON THIS WEEK'S BATTLE: ALYSSA MILANO VS. KATHERINE HEIGL.












THE AFRO ADVENTURES: Well, no one helped me out with my hair problem I mentioned in last week's issue, but that's ok. I figured it out sort of. Either way, I have found out that people everywhere are beginning to dig the fro. The other day, two absolute strangers told me they liked my fro. I know you probably think they were mocking me, but they seriously liked the fro. Also, when I was at work, my friend's mom said that my hair makes me look like Kramer. The ultimate hair compliment you can get when it comes to the fro. Anyways, it has now been three months and counting since I've cut my hair. I am now in the process of switching to a gel with a more solid hold like that super powered Dippity Do stuff. As my hair grows longer, it is harder to keep it upright and not have it lag to a side. Regardless of what gel I use, me and my hair will continue to live la vida loca.





STANKONIA: After long deliberation, I finally went and bought the actual Stankonia album. I knew it would be good because I have yet to hear a bad Outkast album. In fact, each one gets better and better. But I took my time and chose to download the album first and give it a whirl. Last week, I finally listened to the whole album, decided that it was incredible and went and bought it. I totally recommend this album for anyone who likes good music. It is a classic.






MOVIE REVIEWS: This past week, I bought two new movies, The In Crowd and Gone In 60 Seconds. Here are my reviews.

This movie was pretty good. It's about a girl who gets released from a mental hospital and gets a summer job at an high-class resort. She soon begins to run with the in crowd and finds out the prom queen of the crew is a psycho murderer. Anyways, that's the jist of it, and I enjoyed it. I did have one problem though. Two times in the movie, three seperate times, they come deathly close to girl-on-girl action. The first time, they just stop short of anything good. The second time, the two girls are dancing together at the club, all looks promising and then some guy comes in. Finally, the queen and her best friend go for a sail and things get hot and steamy, but it ends up it was just a ruse to push her friend off the boat so she would drown. Damn it all, don't these movie types know that this kind of thing is uhealthy for guys? Grrr...



Gone In 60 Seconds is a classic, at least for me. I think all guys need to own this movie. It ranks up in there with the other guy clasics like Braveheart, Gladiator and Dumb and Dumber. It's about an retired car thief who comes back for one more massive heist to save his little brother. A touching tale and some of the cars will make you cry tears of joy. I highly recommend this film if you like any or all of the following: 1)Nice cars, 2)hearing the "lowrider" song or 3)Angelina Jolie.







NHL 2001 RETURNS: The return of NHL 2001 came on the weekend. At first Graham was winning but when Tyler and I turned our shooting to manual instead of auto, the beatings began and Graham returned to his whipping boy state. Funny thing was he thought both teams shots were manually controlled so he was blaming his losses on that. But really, his shooting was still automatic. Ahahahahaha. Victory is mine!!!



SURVIVOR: Survivor 2 kicked off after the Superbowl. There is not just one, but two good looking girls in the crew (I think their names are Elizabeth and Amber). Anyways, every week, I'm gonna post a pic of the putz who got the boot. This week, Debb got kicked off. She was yammering on after about how she was such a hard worker and a good teammate yada yada yada. Unfortunately, she didn't factor in that she is a huge super-bitch. Well, see ya later.







RANDOM NOTES

Just to remind everyone. Brad Pitt has yet to respond to our challenge posted here last week because he is a sissy-assed wussbag who apparently isn't willing to prove his undying love for his wife. Some man he is.
