Some poor young kid has been duped into thinking that he’s met a bona-fide NBA star. Oops.

OK so check this out. Someone has found a translation of a German book called Scientologie written in 1934 that L. Ron Hubbard undoubtedly read and stole for his own religion.

Eat your heart out Tom Cruise.

I just heard Jason Kidd’s 1994 attempt at rapping — a sad song called “What the Kidd Didd” that features Digital Underground’s Money B. It can be said with no hesitation that Kidd and B. have recorded one of the sorriest songs in the world’s history.

Enjoy!

In honor of the holidays we bring this exceptional photo up from the archives of The N. Period. If Santa Claus was created as an image for Christmas, and Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus, then how on earth does it make sense that Santa would be present at…

Snoop Dogg has created perhaps the finest music video of all time.  If there was ever any doubt that Snoop was a pimp, this gem will alleviate all doubt.  As a matter of fact, this video should be used as visual aid to illustrate the definition of the word should anyone ever wonder what a pimp is.
