Killing three birds with one stone, South Park took on Jersey Shore, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and Osama bin Laden this week. When animated versions of Teresa from Housewives and Snooki from Shore invaded South Park, Colorado, the citizenry became enraged. It’s one thing for Cartman and his buddies to be crude and vulgar; it’s another thing when the crudity and vulgarity emanates from reality-show cretins.
The first half of this South Park was at once predictable and funny. As soon as I saw cartoon-Teresa, I was waiting for her to turn over a dinner table, and sure enough, she flipped out. Stan complained of these new neighbors, “All they do is hump and punch each other.” South Park reserved particular scorn for Snooki, making her a hilariously, hideously crouching, rutting figure. (Seeing her atop Cartman was scarier than most horror movies.)
Kyle and his mom returned to their previously-undisclosed Jersey roots (Sheila was shown to have led a wild youth as “S-Woww”), and it looked as though the half-hour was going to be a good-not-great snipe-hunt with an easy, if deserving, target.
But then South Park made one of its great leaps in logic and world-historical criticism: Randy decided that the solution to the Jersey “problem” (orange-skinned Jersey-ites overrunning the entire country) was to send a taped appeal to Osama bin Laden. The dessicated terrorist watched in mute fascination as Randy fawned over him (“You have witnessed the very worst of mankind”) and begged for Al-Qaeda aid.
Soon, suicide bombers were crashing into South Park’s Jersey population, and it looked as though bin Laden would be the hero of this piece, but… blam! A uniformed American sniper put a bullet in bin Laden’s head. “We got him!” Randy shouted triumphantly.
See? It was all a clever plan to lure bin Laden into the open and dispatch him. Well, him and bad reality-TV. By conflating the two, South Park managed to trump all the bad taste it was satirizing with its own. On the show’s terms, that was its real triumph.

10 Thoughts On South Park – It’s a Jersey Thing – Episode 14-9
And we are back with the second new episode in the second wave of South Park season 14. This time they are “tackling” the issue of Jersey Shore. Did they succeed? Here are my 10 thoughts!
1. And it’s the obligatory Jersey Shore/Housewives episode. Seems like another obvious/easy target for the second week in a row.
2. Muff cabbage!
3. I really liked the “interview” type segments with the Jersey people. I hope they do some with the South Park characters by the end of the episode.
4. Jersey, like a plague, has spread across the entire US. They have a map where there is a gigantic red NEW JERSEY, and Randy Marsh warns the town that South Park might become West Jersey.
5. There we go – Kyle’s Mom does an interview and reveals… she’s from Jersey! Then the other characters ask who she’s talking to. Awesome.
6. Kyle makes a Jersey transformation, cutting and gelling his hair, then pulling off his sleeves to create a cut-off.
7. They shoe-horned Arnold Schwarzenegger into one scene, with a shot on the California state budget. Odd and not overly funny.
8. The town decides to settle their differences with Al Qaeda, so that they can enlist their help in the fight against Jersey. ultimately Al Qaeda does fly over South Park and crashes planes into the Jersey people, murdering them all. Unbelievably Awesome!!
9. They made Snooki into a rat/beast of some sort that wandered around Sizzler wanting “smush smush” from everyone while humping them. Totally disgusting but hilarious at the same time.
10. They actually have a press conference to thank Osama Bin Laden for saving South Park. Then he is shot in the head and killed by the US Army at the end for warm fuzzies all around.
Overall
I’m sure there will be those think this is a second episode with an easy target, but the last 10 minutes with AL Qaeda helping South Park defeat Jersey were epic and classic South Park. Just in case there would be some extreme outrage at the idea of using planes as weapons in a comedic sense, Matt and Trey made sure to kill off Osama Bin Laden at the end. Will that be enough to avoid controversy? I guess we’ll find out tomorrow.
Quotes:
Cartman: You know what you do when you want a family to move away? Every night, you go and take a crap on their doorstep
Kyle: Is that why there’s crap on my doorstep every morning?
Cartman: Oops, busted
Cartman: You’re a ginger, you’re a Jew and you’re from Jersey – Strike Three, Kyle, you’re out!
Kyle’s Mom: You can take the fetus out of Jersey, but you can’t take the Jersey out of the fetus
Kyle (as jersey Kyle): Put that cabbage in your f[beep]cking muff!

'Back to the Future' Starring Eric Stoltz (Video)
It is well know that Eric Stoltz was the first choice to play Marty McFly in "Back to the Future", which opened twenty five years ago (oh the humanity!) The director, Roger Zemeckis and the producer, Steven Spielberg, explain what went wrong. Also, some footage of Stoltz in the role that Michael J. Fox made famous.
Stoltz is now appearing in a slightly grimmer SF series, "Caprica."

Finding the Authentic Supra TK Society (terry kennedy)
By John Ehimare Platinum Quality Author
Since I myself took a look at them earlier last year, I have been a fan. The sleek exterior usually covered in a patent leather or Italian leather style finish along with the ankle cut sets them off so perfectly in my eyes. My, my, feel remorse for the heart of the woman who witnesseth your boy in these. Slim will be the sweet nothings I whispereth in her ear, my shoes will do the talking. Equipped in countless, beautiful, unique colorways, Supra sneakers are in my opinion world class pieces of footwear.
Now someone like me has an image to uphold when I do step out. I can't be in the eye of the public domain with tennis shoes that have no consistency in color and style design. Not I. The sophistication of these Supras (and all Supras for that matter) is tremendous. When your shoes are sophisticated, you look sophisticated....It's a proven fact. Well not really.
Also what adds to these shoes are their origin, designed for the professional skateboarder Terry Kennedy (Compton ass Terry or TK). It took Terry Kennedy about thirty seconds to learn skateboarding, a couple months to get sponsored, and only three years to go pro. Growing up in the streets of Long Beach and skating with pros from Baker skateboards definitely helped, but it's undeniable-TK's got what we call talent. The TK Society Supra sneakers totally embody what Terry Kennedy is as an athlete.
Now along with every great shoe of course comes a very GREAT bootlegging wave. It is important that you find these sneakers in their correct form-authentic. I took the time to purchase them from a particular store online (read on for url), and within a week I had exactly what I expected. I have noticed a lot of fakes and variants across ebay, so I prefer to stay away from there for the most part.
The Supra TK Society are monumental shoes. They're unique design is captivating, and they're material is flawless. If you're looking for a legit pair of skate sneakers that are far more than your average, visit get your TK's as soon as you can.
That's all for me.
