Deep Thoughts By No-Look McFadden: Episode 53



#1
A "Fringe" ode to Walter Bishop, perhaps my favorite character on television now and for quite a while.

#2
Doppleganger update: So John Tortorella, coach of the New York Rangers, is a dead-ringer for Harry Ellis of “Diehard” (played by Hart Bochner). *Insert yippee ki yay joke here*

#3
As a nice change of pace, an unbelievably cool story about a blind surfer kid in Brazil. True vindication for the belief that biorhythms can sync with those of Mother Nature's.

#4
Pluto has a message for NASA. Also, kind of for NASA’s Mom as well.

#5
Apparently, the Thesaurus never really had a shot opportunity chance.



#6
Wideout Hines Ward retired from the Pittsburgh Steelers the other day. A fiercely competitive, gutty and clutch player, to be sure, but I think all of the Hall of Fame talk surrounding him is misguided. Sure, the longevity is certainly there, but was there ever a time where you’d consider among the top 10 or so receivers in the league?

#7
This comic summarizing the outdoor music festival experience is missing a few key frames, I think. But I guess it depends on your age ...

#8
Few things go together better than crack and fire? Well, except for maybe whiskey and guns, of course! Just ask Jayson Williams.

#9
It was hard to watch Lehigh big man Gabe Knutson without being reminded of two-time Final Four darling and Butler standout Matt Howard, in terms of style of play and general peskiness.

#10
This long-ish but insane view of space shuttle footage is simply one of the most purely incredible things I’ve ever seen.
