WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR GIFT CARD?
Some cards that you get will be great, but what happens if you receive a gift card this Christmas to a store that you never shop at? Good luck trying to get a refund. It'll never happen.
Don't worry. You will still be able to get some value from the card...
A number of websites have been created that allow consumers to swap unwanted gift cards -- or to sell them www.swapagift.com and www.plasticjungle.com are two such sites.

TOYOTA AD IS TOO SUGGESTIVE
This Toyota ad was pulled from Australian TV for being too sexually suggestive. A teenage boy and his date's protective father talk about the safety features of the Toyota Yaris and say things like "she can take a good pounding in any direction."

I WONDER IF IT STILL HAD A BTO 8 TRACK IN IT?
Customs agents found the 1965 van on Oct. 19 when they opened a shipping container bound for the Netherlands, the Spokesman-Review newspaper reported. They ran the vehicle identification number and discovered it was listed as stolen.
Authorities have not been able to find the original owner, whom they would not identify.
The operators of a vehicle restoration business in Arizona were the latest to have possession of the van, which they refurbished and planned to sell overseas, said Michael Maleta, an investigator with the California Highway Patrol. Maleta said the shop is also considered a victim in the case, and he declined to identify it.
The van now legally belongs to Allstate Insurance Co., which paid off the original owner's theft claim back in 1974. The Highway Patrol turned over the van to Allstate this week.
Maleta said the van had been restored to pristine condition.
"Now it's probably worth 27 grand," he said. "It's a beautiful van."
Megan Brunet, a spokeswoman for Allstate, said the company is looking through old records trying to find the original policy and theft claim.
"Trying to find paper files from that far back can be pretty challenging," she said.
The company will likely have the van appraised and go through the process of getting a replacement title before selling it at auction, she said.

Punt Return Blooper!
During a semi-pro football game in Las Vegas, a player looked like he was going to return a punt for a touchdown . . . but one of his own players tackled him. Now I see why he's not in the NFL!
HALLOWEEN DUI DRESSES AS A BREATHALYZER
For Halloween, James dressed up as a BREATHALYZER.
He was heading home from a party at about 1:30 A.M., when he was pulled over for driving the wrong way down a one-way street, with the remains of a case of Bud Light in the car.
James blew a .158 on his breathalyzer test, which is nearly twice the legal limit, and was arrested for driving under the influence. Of course, being underage, James shouldn't have even been drinking, or driving around with beer at all. But you get the picture.

A former Nebraska football player (Aaron Gillaspie- backup fullback) proposes to a former Nebraska cheerleader. Look for supporting roles by TO, Helu, and Lee.
NEW 24 TRAILER
Fox has unleashed a promo for the eighth season of "24", which premieres in January. This season seems to involve some sort of national catastrophe that Jack finds himself pulled into . . . to the point where he's the only one who can save us all.
Shocking, I know.

Motorized LA-Z-BOY
But it wasn't a CAR Dennis was driving. It was a motorized La-Z-Boy recliner that Dennis had tricked out with an old lawnmower engine. Get this . . .
The recliner tops out at somewhere between 15 and 20 miles per hour. And it's totally decked out, complete with:
A stereo and a power antenna
A steering wheel
Headlights
And even cup holders
On Monday, Dennis pleaded guilty to driving under the influence. The recliner, which had been impounded, will be sold at the next police auction.

FOX NFL SUNDAY SLAMS JESSICA SIMPSON
This past weekend, Fox NFL Sunday aired an animated skit featuring members of the Dallas Cowboys making fun of JESSICA SIMPSON'S weight.
For instance, a cartoon MARION BARBER says, quote, "Man, I still can't believe Tony [Romo] dated Jessica Simpson, even AFTER she blew up bigger than Flozell Adams!"
JASON WITTEN says, quote, "Unlike Tony, at least Jessica comes up big when it counts!"
And an animated version of Cowboys coach WADE PHILLIPS says, quote, "Say Tony, is Jessica around? We could use a defensive tackle!"
Not surprisingly, a lot of people found this hugely inappropriate. So both Fox and Burger King have apologized. And they both agree that Burger King had nothing to do with it.
Fox said, quote, "Burger King Corp. did not have any editorial input in the creation of the animation that ran last Sunday, and no one from Burger King Corp. approved it before it aired.
"Upon reflection, our poor attempt at humor was insensitive and we deeply apologize to anyone who might have been offended."
And BK said, quote, "Burger King has a long-standing relationship with FOX Sports, as well as an extensive media partnership with the network.
"The specific content for this sketch involving Jessica Simpson was not developed or aired by BKC or any of its agencies."

TOP 100 MOVIES YOU SHOULD SEE BEFORE YOU DIE
Many movies are good, some are great, but only a select few can be called truly "essential." After heated discussions, long negotiations, and a shouting match or two, the staff at Yahoo! Movies has put together this list of the 100 films you must see before you die. To choose the titles for the list, we considered factors like historical importance and cultural impact. But we also selected films that we believe are the most thrilling, most dramatic, scariest, and funniest movies of all time. Some of these films you've seen, and some you may not have heard of, but we believe that each one is a timeless classic that you absolutely have to see. -Yahoo

RANDY QUAID AND HIS WIFE WERE ARRESTED
They were picked up yesterday in Marfa, Texas . . . but they didn't go without a fight. TMZ says Randy assaulted two sheriff's deputies both verbally and physically and resisted arrest.
The Quaids were charged with burglary, conspiracy and defrauding an innkeeper. (???) But they weren't charged for their antics during the arrest. Bail was set at $20,000 for each of them, but they quickly paid it and walked.
Apparently, Randy and Evi have done this before . . . which is why the cops pursued them so hard. They believe that the Quaids checked into the San Ysidro Ranch with no intention of paying in the first place.
Here's the thing, though: The Quaids say they did NOTHING WRONG . . . and they're completely square with the San Ysidro Ranch.
They even sent a cashier's check to TMZ as proof . . . along with a HANDWRITTEN statement . . . in which they said, quote, "I promise the state of California, Texas does not bother people over hamburgers ordered by room service, supposedly burglarized. I promise you we have paid our bill . . . and this is all for PR."
TITAN'S STEVE MCNAIR MURDER SCENE AT HALLOWEEN HAUNT
Kings Island in Ohio gave a local news station a sneak preview of their annual Halloween Haunt, and they brought back pictures of a haunted graveyard filled with "celebrity skeletons" like Michael Jackson and Ted Kennedy. And that display up there.
Yep, that's a skeleton holding a Titans helmet, with the top blown off. A gun rests at the foot of the couch. The two skeletons assume the positions that Steve McNair and Sahel Kazemi were found in after their murder-suicide.
When reached by FanHouse, a spokesperson for Kings Island, Don Helbig, said the following, "There will not be a scene at our Halloween event that features Steve McNair or anyone that resembles him."
With video and pictures of the skeletons circulating online, Helbig at first declined to acknowledge that they had ever existed. "There was no reference to Steve McNair at all. No jersey, nothing." Upon being informed that the pictures and video were already online, Helbig again insisted that the skeletons would not be featured on Friday when the event opens. Pressed as to when the skeletons were removed from the park, Helbig stuck to his talking points. "Our event does not open until Friday," he said, "We meant him no disrespect."
I'm not sure how this was supposed to entertain and/or scare children. On the other hand, it might be used to scare athletes straight, alongside a reenactment of Left Eye burning down Andre Rison's house and a loop of Barbara Hershey's scene in The Natural.

FEEL GOOD FOOTBALL
Matt Zeisel, a high school freshman with Down Syndrome, had his dream of scoring a touchdown recently come true. And the video of the quick-footed frosh has been viewed more than 275-thousand times on YouTube.
Below is a little write-up from the Ziesel family for those of you not familiar with Matt:
Matt is a special athlete who has Down Syndrome. He loves football and has grown up in an environment surrounded by sports. His father is a coach/ athletic director, and all his siblings play sports. He grew up at athletic events, and has always been a cheerleader.
He registered as a freshman at Benton High School -Saint Joseph, MO this year, and told his mother and father he wanted to play football. The team takes good care of looking after Matt, and he is still the cheerleader on the sidelines. He puts his pads and helmet on, stands next to Coach McCamy and waits for his turn to play.
Over and over during the course of the game Matt will say, "Coach McCamy, I am ready! I am ready Coach!"
On this Monday night coach gave him a chance. The Cardinals were down by a few touchdowns with 15 seconds left. Coach McCamy called a timeout and asked the coach of Maryville High School if they could run their "Matt Play". He agreed and this is where the video begins.
Thanks to Coach McCamy and the freshman coach at Maryville, Matt and his family will cherish his moment forever!
- Sincerely The Ziesel Family

FANS VANDALIZED AN NFL PLAYER'S LAWN . . . BECAUSE HE FUMBLED AND LOST THE GAME
It's no secret that some NFL fans lose their ever-loving minds when their favorite team loses . . . but THIS is a bit extreme.
On Monday night, Buffalo Bills kick returner Leodis McKelvin fumbled the ball late in the game against the New England Patriots . . . and it cost the Bills the game. That upset two 16- year-old boys from a suburb of Buffalo called Hamburg.
Which is understandable. If McKelvin had just fallen down with the ball, the Bills could have run a few plays and won the game. Instead, Patriots stud quarterback Tom Brady threw a game-winning touchdown with just under a minute left.
So how did the two boys deal with their anger at McKelvin? They FOUND OUT WHERE HE LIVED and SPRAY PAINTED OBSCENITIES on his lawn.
Police aren't saying exactly what the kids wrote, only that it involved curse words, the final score of the game . . . New England Patriots 25, Buffalo Bills 24 . . . and the phrase ''Take a knee."
Police also say they'll only arrest the boys if McKelvin wants to press charges. As of Wednesday afternoon, he didn't sound like he was going to. (WKBW TV)

PATRICK SWAYZE
Swayze revealed back in March of 2008 that he was battling pancreatic cancer, which is one of the deadliest forms of the disease. Some reports gave him mere WEEKS to live at the time.
His rep released a statement saying, quote, "Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months."
Here's a video tribute to him...
As far as great Swayze moments in video, for guys, it's hard to top his appearance on "Saturday Night Live", in the skit with CHRIS FARLEY where they compete for the same spot with the Chippendales. Here's that clip...

BEST POST GAME INTERVIEW EVER!
Being a rookie in the N-F-L isn't easy. You're facing an uphill battle, competing for a job with veterans and running drills that make your college days seem like pee-wee football. But those things pale in comparison to dealing with the media. Ellis Lanksder is a rookie on the Buffalo Bills. We don't know much about him, but his responses at a recent post-game press conference are priceless.

RED LIGHT CAMERA TICKETS AVOIDED
In that time, a guy from Phoenix named Dave Vontesmar has accumulated 37 speeding tickets to the tune of more than $6,500 in fines. But Dave says he doesn't have to pay. Why?
Because in order to make him pay, state officials have to prove that Dave was the person driving his car when the photo-ticket was issued.
The problem is that in all 37 of the photos, Dave . . . or someone else . . . is wearing a MONKEY MASK, which makes it impossible to ID the driver. (!!!)
Dave says, quote, "They're required by law to ID the driver of the vehicle. If they can't identify the driver by the picture, what are they doing to identify the driver?
"Not one of them there is a picture where you can identify the driver of the car . . . I sent back all the [tickets] I got with a copy of my driver's license and said, 'It's not me. I'm not paying.'"
It's unclear whether Dave will be forced to pay the speeding fines. Overall, the photo-enforcement program has helped the state earn about $20 MILLION.

BOB BARKER ON WWE MONDAY NIGHT RAW
BOB BARKER is not dead. One of those pointless celebrity death hoaxes was making the rounds online this week. Usually, you can just ignore stuff like that . . . but since this is The Summer of Death, you need to look into everything.
Actually, Bob just guest-hosted this week's edition of the WWE's "Monday Night RAW" . . . and he was pretty hilarious.
Take me! Choose me, George!
GEORGE CLOONEY was hyping his upcoming movie during a press conference at the Venice Film Festival the other day. But one of the reporters wasn't a reporter at all. He was either a prankster or a very amorous gay man.
He proceeded to STRIP while saying, "Take me! Choose me, George!" Clooney took it in stride, though.

THE MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS

--EWAN MCGREGOR and KEVIN SPACEY are in it, too. It comes out November 6th. It looks pretty funny. Here's the trailer . . .
A WOMAN'S GUIDE TO FOOTBALL
The N-F-L regular season officially kicks off next Thursday night, which means wives won't see or speak to their husbands much until February -- unless, of course, they learn how to watch the games themselves. Well, some years back, an instructional video titled A Woman's Guide to Watching Football was released.

DRIVE A CAMARO - GET A FREE PIZZA!
If you drive a Chevy Camaro, then I've got good news for you this morning. Today, Papa John's Pizza is offering a FREE PIZZA to anyone who owns a Camaro. (???)
I know, it's an unusual offer. But the REASON behind the deal is even more bizarre than the promotion itself. Listen to this . . .
In 1983, the owner of Papa John's, a guy named John Schnatter, sold his 1971 Camaro Z28 for $2,800 so he could open his first Papa John's restaurant. But John missed his car.
In fact, he missed it so much that once his restaurant hit it big, he offered $250,000 to anyone who could help him track down his original Camaro.
The guy who originally bought the car heard about John's search, got in touch, and and said he sold the Camaro five years ago for $4,000 to a guy named Jeffery Robinson from Flatwoods, Kentucky (--165 miles east of Louisville).
Long story short, John bought the Camaro back from Jeffery for $250,000, and gave $25,000 to the original buyer for helping him track it down. (!!!)
And, of course, now you get free pizza.
DID MICHAEL JACKSON FAKE HIS DEATH???
Okay, people, it's on: The best "MICHAEL JACKSON IS STILL ALIVE" conspiracy theory . . . (--so far) . . . has begun.
You can already tell it's a hoax, but nobody can deny these things are fun . . . and, as ELVIS has proven time and time again, they just never get old. (???)
A video has appeared online of a coroner's van pulling into what looks like an underground garage.
When it stops, someone gets out, goes to the back of the van and opens one of the doors.
Then someone whose identity is obviously being shielded gets out of the back of the van . . . and the other person takes them through a door and out of sight.
The claim being made is that the person getting out of the back of the van is Michael . . . and that this video was shot right after he ALLEGEDLY died and his body was removed from his rented home.
In other words, he FAKED HIS DEATH.
The person who posted the clip says, quote, "I checked the license plate number and it looks like the King of Pop is jumping out of the same van his dead body has been in.
"I got the original video tape from a trustworthy source. I know him for years. And I am sure it's real and Michael is alive."

MY HUSBAND IS ANNOYING . COM
By the way, they've only been married five months.
In her blog, she complains about things like his love of fart jokes, the fact that he wears the same zip-up green sweater in every family photograph and his inability to figure out the TV remote.
What's even better is that since Tiffanie's blog needs him to be annoying in order to stay active, Mark can be as annoying as much as he wants.

UNTIED BREAKS GUITARS - SONG 2
Canadian musician and United Airlines luggage victim Dave Carroll has created a sequel to his insanely popular United Breaks Guitars viral video. We should mention that after five-million views of the original video, United Airlines did actually offer to pay up. But Carroll declined and told them to give it to charity. How can anyone not like this guy?
If you missed the original song and video, here it it.
