Following Up on Unfinished Business

Here's some links following up on... other links:

* The Reason for the Zidane Headbutt - Remember that headbutt in the World Cup? You know, soccer? That sport with the funny ball where they can't use their hands? Well, Marco Materazzi, the Italian player who was mouthing off to France's Zinedine Zidane immediately before the infamous headbutt finally came clean with what he said.

Contrary to earlier speculation, it wasn't about Zidane's momma -- it was a sister joke. Completely different.

* Um, Didn't He Die? - According to reports, director Ridley Scott wants to team up with Russell Crowe again to make a sequel to Gladiator.

* But Wait, There's More! - Arthur Schiff, the guy who came up with the Ginsu  knife and father of the modern informercial as we know it, died last week.

More stuff tomorrow. Some of it may actually be useful.

Thanks -- Joe

The French should make Zidane the Emperor For Life, and call it the 5th Republic.
