Speaking of pin ups, did you know that Hugh Hefner is tweeting? Yep, now you can follow the breathless updates from the nonstop lifestyle of America’s favorite creepy old man. Some recent gems from his twitter feed:

I’m playing gin rummy with the guys tonight

Going in for my annual physical check-up this afternoon. Playing games with the girls tonight.

We spent the afternoon in the Game House playing backgammon & hanging out with the girls.

My blonde obsession began with the movies in the 1930s, with Jean Harlow, Jean Rogers (in “Flash Gordon”), Alice Faye and Betty Grable.

Watched a great film on song writer Johnny Mercer on TCM. He wrote the songs I fell in love to in my teens.

A clip from our favorite Halloween movie here in the Lounge, Young Frankenstein. (”That’s ‘Frawnkenshteen’!”)

Hey, football fans. We’re announcing a special offer today to email club members only. Sign up before noon. Go to the Bowling Concepts home page and look for the email sign up box under Charlie Sheen’s picture.

Okay, tonight is the season premiere – the seventh season, woohoo! – of Two and a Half Men. As always, Lounge rules apply while the show is playing on the TV over the bar. In case you’ve forgotten the rules here’s a recap:

1. No talking
2. No laughing louder or longer than the studio audience (or is it a laugh track?)
3. No pool – sorry, those balls just clank too loudly
4. No domestic squabbles – as you know, there’s nothing more we like here in the Lounge than to see people airing their dirty laundry in public; just not while Charlie’s on the screen
5. No juke box – don’t make us unplug it like we had to last year
6. Drinks half off – the rule that keeps you coming back

We were considering instituting a drinking game but just never got around to putting it together. We only have two rules so far: chug a beer when Charlie Sheen appears in a new bowling shirt and do a shot for every puberty joke. Got any suggestions for more? As you know, every good drinking game must have at least 5 rules. Leave a comment with your ideas for a Two and a Half Men drinking game.

And now, here’s a sneak peak of tonight’s episode

Or so the rumor mills have been promising for a while now and finally it’s starting to feel true.

A few weeks ago we were all more than a little let down here in the Lounge that Charlie Sheen was to be excluded from the sequel to Wall Street. Well, that seems to be changing.

This time ’round Bud Fox, Charlie’s character, will only be making a brief appearance but, really, that’s enough. A Charlie Sheen cameo is just right to put the universe back to rights. It would just be wrong, wrong, ten times wrong, to make a Wall Street sequel without his Sheenness.

Have you noticed this trend? Old people are playing video games. No, I’m not talking about baby-boomers rediscovering their youth. These are real, actual, old people who are digging hard on the Wii.

I know; we’re all a little sick of the “miracle of Wii” but here it really seems to apply.

Nursing homes are using Wii video game – where they can afford them – to get their seniors up and active. Unlike previous tactics they’ve tried to use, the Wii is actually fun.

I can attest to this. As a devote Sendentarianist I have personally experienced the “get off the coach” aspects of the Wii.

Check it out.
