Randy Quaid arrest for 10,000 dollar hotel bill

I just read this but supposedly Mr. Quaid and his wife stiffed a hotel in texas for a hotel bill. Hopefully their is a simple explanation or maybe he just would not sign any autographs at the hotel for any of the guests or the help at the hotel? May be Chevy Chase was to pay the bill?

James Cameron on TMZ: Think Again

Sometimes the media jumps on stories without asking enough questions.

Yesterday, Christmas Eve, was one of those days.

The lead video on TMZ's Web site was an airport encounter with a so-called fan and James Cameron. The "fan" had an "Avatar" poster he asked Cameron to sign. Cameron refused and the guy got pushy. Not like an adoring fan asking again for an autograph. Not even like an aggressive professional autograph runner—unless he was the dumbest one in the world.… Continue

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE!!!

I thought I would leave a Sci-Fi type X-mas pic since I am a Sci-Fi Guy!
Thanks to the magazine for allowing me to be a part time writer, and readers for reading the mag, and all my Sci-FI Scene columns since 2005. I hope to include more sci-fi conventions and interviews within the magazine in 2010! Peace.

NASCAR: Driver Autograph Holograms....THE TRUTH!!!

Many people have either heard about, seen, or own signed Jeff Gordon & Dale Earnhardt Jr. autographed items that include the individual driver's numbered hologram.

These Holograms were designed for the drivers as a way for fans to know that they have purchased authentic signatures. However, there are some very strong misconceptions regarding these holograms. I hope to clear these issues up with this blog post.

1st, Let's look at the holograms on signed 1/24 scale… Continue

Autographed Quilt Featured on "Pawn Stars"

For those who aren't familiar with "Pawn Stars," it's a show on the History Channel about a family who owns and operates a pawn shop in Vegas. I'd seen ads for it now and then while channel surfing, and at first glance, it looked like yet another crummy reality show featuring a dysfunctional group of people trying to run a business while fighting with each other. However, I was pleasantly surprised to discover the show is more like "Antiques Roadshow," where customers with an eclectic array of… Continue

Van Gogh, Edgar Allan Poe, and Michael Jacksons Nose

Hey, it rhymed! And I'm never going to grow tired of Michael Jackson nose jokes.

Lots of collectable stuff in the news lately.

In Rome, police seized works by Van Gogh, Picasso, Cezanne and other big name artists, in a crackdown on assests that were hidden by a disgraced founder of a dairy company called Parmalat.

There were about 20 masterpieces stashed away in attics and basements in various apartments. They're valued about $150 million.

George Clooney and Wayne Gretzky Signing on TV

I just caught up on a weeks worth of TMZs on my Tivo. I swear, I hate so much of what that show does. In one segment, they got James Belushi made by continuing to make fun of the basket on his moped. And, when celebrities get bothered by people with cameras, that often translates to people asking for autographs, getting stiffed by them.

But George Clooney, as always, was signing up a storm. At one point he said "I thought the Batman picture I signed last time would be the last time I… Continue

More Michael Jackson...

I just saw the tail end of this. Probably because the news shows were all focused on the Tiger tail.

(I heard the reason he was out so late the night of the Escalade crash -- he and his wife were out clubbing)

C'mon. That was good.

I'm here all week, folks. Try the linguini.

Anywhooo...this big, heavy set African-American, was trying to sell a black surgical mask that belonged to Michael Jackson. He told the British reporter (who I believe worked for… Continue
