Fight Club

Ninth Rule of Fight Club: Do not tell the NY Times about Fight Club.

What a great snippet to get me to read the article:
"In small cities and towns where there is not much to do, cage fighting is making a comeback."

Speaking of fighting, I saw an ad the other day for the WWE Summerslam. The headline match? Hulk Hogan versus Shawn Michaels: Immortality has a price. Was that an ad from twenty years ago? No, it's 52 year-old Hogan versus 40 year-old Michaels. I don't know if I should be amazed that these guys at their ages can keep up with the physicality (steroids?) or amused by professional wrestling's inability to market new stars.
