I thought the best way to pay tribute to pro wrestling legend Macho Man Randy Savage was to combine it with our best of the interweb series. One of my favourite Tumblr blogs to follow is Where’s Randy Savage. This Tumblr features the Macho Man photoshopped into some great photos from movies, history and more. They’re all great but here are the twenty best Where’s Randy Savage images. Continue reading
Worst of Music: Pitbull – Give Me Everything
Selecting a Worst of Music song this week might have been the most difficult task that the WoM award committee has faced. That’s because six of the Top Ten on the Billboard Hot 100 have already won the WoM and there was actually a good song on the list too. So of the remaining three, this week’s song comes from WoM standard-bearer Pitbull with his latest single called Give Me Everything. Continue reading

Entertainment Link-Off: End of the World
This weekend marks the release of the swashbuckling-fest Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides. If ‘At World’s End’ didn’t quite drive you away from the franchise, feel free to have another go at it.

Man Lab: Sleep Like an All-Star (Infographic)
Did you know that one of the most important things that a man can do is sleep? They say that we sleep for an average of a third of our lives. I used to think that sleep is for the weak and informed friends of that on several occasions. Turns out that I was wrong all along. According to the following infographic, a couple more hours of sleep can make a world of difference. Continue reading
Worst of Music: Glee – Rolling in the Deep
Last week in the Lowdown Blog Man Lab, I dissected British singing sensation Adele. I mentioned that I wasn’t a fan but that didn’t mean I wished harm upon her. Unfortunately, last week on Glee, harm is what found her as the Glee cast got a hold of her #1 song Rolling in the Deep. The result is enough for us to call for the cancellation of Glee. Continue reading
