AMERICAN GLADIATORS IS BACK!

The NO-HOLDS-BARRED hit competition series returns to prime-time television!

NBC is relaunching the classic competition series "American Gladiators" and is currently auditioning CONTENDERS and GLADIATORS for our upcoming premiere season.

We are looking for weekend warrior types that are BIG, bad, and athletic. If you think you have the heart, skills, and desire to COMPETE then we want to see you at THE GLADIATOR ARENA!

as long as they keep the format like the old show, and don't really screw around with it...this could be the most awesome thing ever.

movies? really?

i just found out that we have to watch a movie as a make-up class for Ethics, since last week's class was cancelled.

that's disgusting. i think i'm the only person in the world who dislikes that...but i don't generally enjoy watching movies. i'm going to fall asleep during it. there's a reason i didn't take Reel Justice (the ethics class that involves watching movies and busting people for ethical violations in movies). i took this class specifically to avoid having to watch movies for my ethics class...and now i have to watch a fucking movie.

sigh.
