Rest in peace Loni Anderson.

There was something wonderful about her role of Jennifer Marlowe on WKRP. She had the looks and always the upper hand.

The role of Jennifer was supposed to be of a ditzy blonde. Loni lobbied for her to be a strong woman who took no bullshit.

From the Pope - In our competitive society, where it seems that only the strong and winners deserve to live, sport also teaches us how to lose. It forces us, in learning the art of losing, to confront our fragility, our limitations and our imperfections. It is through the experience of these limits that we open our hearts to hope. Athletes who never make mistakes, who never lose, do not exist.

This applies to all sports but - and I am not joking - it is absolutely something best understood by a baseball man.

It’s called Prisencolinensinainciusol if you feel like searching for better quality. It was used in a random Mountain Dew commercial a little while back and I nearly fell over when I heard it

This Italian singer released a gibberish song in the 1970s meant to sound like English. It was a hit Adriano Celentano is the musician and actor behind social media's latest novelty craze.

Celentano's intention was to demonstrate Italians' fascination with English-language music, highlighting how they would embrace a song that sounded "American," regardless of whether they understood the words.

In 1972, Adriano Celentano released a song called "Prisencolinensinainciusol". The song's lyrics are entirely made up, designed to sound like American English to non-English speakers. …

Italian singer Adriano Celentano released a song in the 70s with nonsensical lyrics meant to sound like American English β€” to prove that Italians would just love any American song.

It was a hit.
