The Hollywood Caller: Yoo-hoo, Yahoo’s Calling…

Open Caption: Simon Cowell Is a Doggy Daddy

SimonDogsSmallSometimes an image just needs the right words to go with it. Simon Cowell has provided just that image.

Yesterday Mr. Cowell decided that an incoming human baby just wasn’t enough excitement in his life and he decided to get two puppies to fill out his instant family.

He’s gone from globe trotting playboy to stay at home dad almost overnight. The only thing left for him to do is get a minivan.

Go forth and caption. Or, if you’d rather suggest names for his pups that would work too.

The Hobbyist: An Introduction

One of my earliest memories is staying up late with my mom in our dining room building a model of the U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701-A, in case you’re wondering). Well, to be precise, I was watching and she was building at my behest.

The Hollywood Caller: Will Smith Is Tired of Sequels, But Not Tired Enough Apparently

Will Smith wants off the sequel ride…kinda; we still hate Michael Bay and so apparently do The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; Strafe and roll with Splinter Cell; Ethan Hawke is truly a gossip; Matt Damon shaves his head and finds his tense face again; Django is still casting because that’s not at all scary.

Hey guys, I know it’s been like forever since we had a Caller, so here’s one to knock the dust off it. Continue reading
