50 States 50 Hotties-Lousiana/Manic Monday Faith

Louisiana, you were beginning to worry me. I thought for all the people that had to live in the state, or at least have been born in the state, you would have had some hotness. But, I was struggling to come up with one, since you will soon hear about the 2nd runnerup. Then, I found W.

Reese Witherspoon was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on March 22, 1976. She first got noticed in the movie Cruel Intentions, where she also met her future Ex-Husband Ryan Phillipe and then made a small splash in the movie Election. I must admit, I liked the book better then the movie. This was followed by the Legally Blond series and the rest is history.






And then in a moment of blogging synergy, this weeks Manic Monday over at Its a Blog Eat Blog World is based on the word faith.

As opposed to going the religious route, or even the philosophical route for the word Faith, when I hear the word, many times, the first thing that pops into my mind is that its a girls name. Maybe because little bro's first girlfriend was named Faith, maybe I watched too much Murphy Brown, but no matter, thats what happens. And coincidentally, the co-star of Murphy Brown, Faith Ford was born in Louisiana and she was the 3rd choice for todays hottie, being just beat out by Ashley Scott. But, this is not that shabby a version of Faith.

Manic Monday Part Deux-Marbles



Ok, a Manic Monday post that is really not worth doing, since it is almost 11:00pm my time, but since I had the video and the picture all set up, I figured why not.

This week, the Preston and Steve Show dumped 10,000 marbles down the steps of the Art Museum, yes the place famous for Rocky. This was done to commemorate the impending 10,000th loss by the Phillies, which came to fruition Sunday night.



Now, the stunt sounded alot more impressive on the radio then it actually looked on tape, but it got the point across I think.

My First Manic Monday-Seven



First, I freely and happily admit I am not a Yankee fan. In fact, I am a Yankee Hater, but when I got the topic for the Manic Monday this week, I had to go with the first thing that popped into my head.

Manic Monday-7



Mickey Mantle was the Number 7 for the New York Yankees. Even people that were not Yankee fans appreciated how he would play through multiple injuries and hangovers to still be one of the greatest New York Yankees ever. He was involved in the Home Run chase of 1961 to break Babe Ruth's single season record with Roger Maris and is the last ballplayer to win the Major League Triple Crown, which means he lead all players in both leagues in Batting Average, Home Runs and RBI's. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1974 in his first year of eligibility.
