Wrestlemania Moments!

It's Wrestlemania time and I did not pay for tonight's PPV. A co-worker is texting me the results and I'm not missing much. It did remind me of one of my favorite pictures:


CHYNA, MARK AND TRIPLE H

That picture was taken right before Wrestlemania 13 which took place in 1997 at what-was the Rosemont Horizon (now the Allstate Arena) about 45 minutes from Crystal Lake. The WWF (now the WWE) sent Hunter Hearst Helmsley (now Triple H) and Chyna (now Chynna Doll) over to work the Northwest Herald (now nwherald.com) booth during the Greater Crystal Lake Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry For All (now Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce) Expo. I think Scott Dalzell (now a teacher) snapped this pic.

As you can see, eyeglasses were bigger in the 20th century. And Trip really has let himself go. After this picture was taken, Chyna had her way with me which is a lot less pleasant than it sounds...

Iron Man 2: Legal This Time

Well, the Iron Man 2 trailer is on YouTube.Com. Allow me to post it without fear of reprisal from Marvel attorneys:



This looks to be another awesome Jon Favreau spectacular! Can't wait for May!

My TV Moment

I'M MARK SWEETWOOD AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE!

Last week I shared a picture taken by the talented Bill Lewis as I was getting ready in the newsroom to be shot for a new commercial for The Vindicator. Well the commercial is done and I actually saw it last night in HD while watching Pam give birth on "The Office!"

Yikes!

In case you interested, here is what it looks like:



The ad is part of a series touting our new press and new look. We received BIG props from the readers this week. But, it was a long week and I have to be up early Saturday to join genius columnist Bertram de Souza on his radio show for a couple of hours so I am heading to bed early...

In theory...

More later,
