Clerks II


It's been over 10 years since we saw the cult classic Clerks bring Dante Hicks and Randal Graves to life. The funny black and white film was such a hit, all these years later we will soon see a sequel with the upcoming release of Clerks II.

Clerks II takes place 10 years after the original and lets us in on what some of our favorite characters are doing today. Only four of the original cast will return, including Dante, Randal, Jay, and Silent Bob.
This time, instead of the convenience store as the movie's backdrop, it will mostly take place at the fast foot restaurant, Mooby's, seen before in View Askew films.

The movie finds Dante still working at the convenience store and Randal still working at RST video. Neither are happy, and after a fire occurs in both stores, they decide to move on to another minimum wage job at Mooby's. But, Dante, who is living with his girlfriend, doesn't want to stay there long because he wants a family life. Randal isn't too thrilled either, and goes through a bit of a mid-life crisis.

Don't expect the same antics you've grown to love from Jay and Silent Bob. They, too, will be a bit different, this time clean and sober! Rosario Dawson is the newest edition to the film. She will play Becky, Mooby's manager.

If you want to have a little fun before you go to see the movie, or even order up some Kevin Smith movie merchandise, check out www.clerks2.com. Clerks II is set to hit theaters July 21.

A Guide to Highbrow Oral Sex Writing and Reportage


"The oral-sex craze—and in particular girls' insistence that blowjobs 'aren't sex'—has often been blamed on Bill Clinton and his semantic calisthenics during the Kenneth Starr investigation. But even if teen girls were looking to the White House for personal guidance, was it really Bubba they were trying to emulate? Girls' private lives are always much more influenced by First Daughters, or even First Ladies, than they are by any pasty politico." - Are You There God? It's Me, Monica, by Caitlin Flanagan, The Atlantic, January 2006. [via Powells]

"The idea that a blowjob is a dirty, unsavory chore persists. For some women, they're used as an out when she doesn't want to have sex (or as household quid pro quo: 'If you take out the garbage, I'll give you a bj')."- Long Live Blowjob Nation, by Rachel Kramer Bussell, The Village Voice, April 21, 2006.

  • Romance novelist charged with felony assault after knocking husband out with phone book


    A romance novelist charged with felony assault said she accidentally knocked her husband out after hurling a telephone book at his head during an argument.

    Emily Hanlon-Tarasov, author of "Petersburg," a best seller in England, said she threw the phone book in a fit of anger, then called 911 after her husband fell to the floor and lay unconscious for several minutes.

    "I threw the book, but never in my wildest dreams did I think it would hit him," Hanlon said of the incident, which occurred in their Chapman Road home Monday morning, just two weeks shy of their 40th anniversary.

    "A few things began flying at the wall, and one of them was a telephone book," her husband Ned Tarasov said yesterday. "And unfortunately my head moved into the space that the book was flying."

    Yorktown police charged the 61-year-old writer with second-degree assault, despite her husband pleading with them to throw the case out.

    86-year-old woman with a walker lays beatdown on mugger with her umbrella


    She's 86, had five strokes, a broken hip and Wednesday, Elisabeth Rubin fought a mugger to a draw not far from Madison Square Garden.

    Rubin was killing time Wednesday at midmorning waiting for the M20 to take her to doctor's appointment, so she looked at the watches in the Tourneau window at 34th and 7th Avenue.

    "In the glass I saw him coming up behind me acting strange," she said.

    The man was swinging what she described as a wood signpost. By her account, he hit her in the arm, then in the head as he grabbed the purse resting on her walker.

    Rubin was determined to hang onto the bag. There wasn't much bread in it, only the corn bread she'd made for some friends, and a $5 bill.

  • Russian Grandpa Jailed for Robbing Grandson’s Piggy-Bank


    A Russian court has sentenced a man to three years in jail for robbing his grandson’s piggy-bank. The money, originally saved to buy a big fluffy toy, was spent on vodka instead.

    The grandfather, aged 40, was living with his wife, son, daughter, son-in-law and one-year-old grandson in a small two-room apartment in Moscow, the Moskovsky Komsomolets daily reports.

    Relatives often had to hide money from the head of the family, otherwise it would be spent on vodka. Unfortunately, they had not thought of hiding the piggy-bank that stood on the shelf above the baby’s bed, in which the young parents kept 3,000 rubles — about $100 — saved for a huge, fluffy toy.

    Trial Begins Monday For Penis Pump Judge


    Jury selection begins Monday in the trial of a former judge who's accused of indecent exposure for allegedly using a penis pump beneath his black robe during a murder trial.

    Former district judge Donald Thompson, 59, faces four felony counts of indecent exposure. An additional misdemeanor charge against Thompson for his alleged misuse of a state computer will also be tried although Thompson's attorney had argued that it was an effort by prosecutors to prejudice Thompson before the jury. The charge alleges that Thompson placed pornographic photos of himself and a woman on his judicial computer.

    If convicted on all counts, Tompson could face up to 41 years in prison.

    Prosecutors and attorneys for Thompson have been warned by Judge Alan McCall to conduct themselves in a professional manner during the trial. The trial is like to be one of the most sexually explicit trials ever held in Oklahoma.

    Disney gets a taste for fresh fruit


    Disney has begun licensing fresh fruit in European supermarkets as it tries to jump onto the healthy eating bandwagon and banish the memory of its association with McDonald's.

    Shoppers at Tesco are already able to buy Disney satsumas and the company is looking to branch out into apples and bananas. The branding involves putting "collectible" stickers on the skin of the fruit, which can then be transferred into a sticker book.

    Disney has just started selling satsumas in Tesco, offering stickers of Winnie the Pooh on the fruit.

    Judge Says Can't Sue for Being Stupid



    Indiana's criminal confinement law is too vague to allow the conviction of a man who tricked men into stripping by posing as a radio disc jockey, the Indiana Court of Appeals unanimously ruled Wednesday.


    The court set aside Richard C. Brown's March 2005 convictions on three counts of criminal confinement but upheld his three convictions for identity deception. The three-judge panel sent the case back to Marion Superior Court for re-sentencing.
    Brown was sentenced to five years in prison, plus three years suspended, after his trial in 2005.
    Brown was on house arrest for criminal confinement in July 2004 when he phoned victims and posed as a WNOU-FM (Radio Now) disc jockey holding a contest with a prize of $50,000 cash or a car, according to court records.
    Three men came to Brown's home. Two undressed, but the third noticed Brown's home detention ankle bracelet and left. He called the radio station, which notified police.
    The Court of Appeals agreed with Brown's contention that the wording of Indiana's law does not make it clear that his behavior constituted criminal confinement, because no force was used.
    Judge Terry Crone wrote that the vagueness of the language conceivably could make it a crime to trick someone into going to a surprise birthday party.
