RickLimpert.info Picture of the Week: Gary Busey

If you watch The Apprentice on Sunday nights, you'll know that Gary Busey was the project manager this week.  The teams were selling one of my favorite food items, Omaha Steaks.

If you can still catch this episode, watch it!  Busey is out of control but effective at the same time.

RickLimpert.info Pictures of the Week: Images From New Zealand

At least 65 people died after a 6.3-magnitude earthquake hit Christchurch, New Zealand.

Some of the pictures from this beautiful country are hard to believe. 

The earthquake even interrupted a tennis match mid point during the Fred Perry Cup international tennis competition in Christchurch.

 

The tennis event was cancelled, but the clean up and rebuilding has already started.  Here's wishing the Kiwi's the best in their recovery.

RickLimpert.info Picture of the Week:  Freedom?

Egypt celebrates, but what is next?

President Obama delivered a speech about Egypt calling for "nothing less than genuine democracy," not just a government aligned with U.S. interests.

It wil sure be interesting to see what happens in Egypt over the next few months.

RickLimpert.info Picture of the Week for 1/30/11: Tyler/Rivers

Whew!  Twenty-seven straight weeks of following and watching football.  We still have one to go and it's a big one.  Next week there will be nothing but Super Bowl XLV lead up and then finally the game.

So I'm going a totally different direction with my picture of the week.  My friend  affectionately known as "The Iowa State Guy" for his rabid obsession with Iowa State Basketball wanted me to do a side by side comparison, kind of a separated at birth between a current picture of Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and now American Idol fame and Melissa Rivers who wouldn't have a crumb of a career had it not been for her mom.  If you have any comments or complaints about this topic, The Iowa State guy can be found on Twitter at @CloneGator

It's fitting as we are now two weeks into the American Idol auditions and in my opinion, Steven Tyler is the hit of the show.  So far, he's been popular with contestants and has endeared himself to viewers.  He might be the key to the show now that Simon is gone.

And for Melissa Rivers, well it's award show season and that means Joan and Melissa Rivers will be doing their fashin critiques on some channel nobody watches.  Take a look at this picture and look at the uncanny resemblance.

 

Now doing my own experiment using some face swapping software, I've switched just the faces and look what we have.

The software transfer isn't perfect, but by switching just the faces, it isn't much different.
