When it comes to the music of Bob Marley & The Wailers, the album owned by most is the quintessential Legend, which contains a great cross-section of singles from albums released throughout the band's career.

Comedy Review: Tracy Morgan Is A Sick Mofo (And We Love Him For It)

Yes. He killed it. (Photo via clubzone.com)

Me and the future Mrs. Paqman were waiting on The Turnbulls at the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts for the Tracy Morgan stand up show. As we were hanging out, I saw a dude walk through the front doors with a white shirt and an impressive pot belly. I leaned over to Fabs and said "Is that Tracy Morgan?". Before she had a chance to answer, I instinctively yelled out "TRACY!!!!!" while she wooed it up. He looked over briefly and kept walking with his fiancé. He had that look on his face...you know, the signature look he has that just makes you want to laugh. And that was our preview to a great performance.

Things That Make You Say WTF?!: Courtney Love Interprets "Jeremy" By Pearl Jam

You all know how I feel about Courtney Love, but this one was too terribly good to pass up. In this epic fail of a video, Love interprets Jeremy, a classic Pearl Jam cut, for the webonauts to enjoy (read: cringe). I did say that she interprets it since I can't in my right mind consider this singing. 

I highly encourage you to watch the "hole" video...it's so awful and hilarious at the same time. The 3:00 mark is in my opinion the pinnacle of this performance. Courtney needs a serious "Old Yellering" as she clearly has rabies or is clinically insane.

Sound off on this debaucherous spectacle in the comments .

Shaquille O'Neal Drops S-Bomb On Live NBA Broadcast

Newly retired NBA big man Shaquille O'Neal is still getting his legs under himself as a TV analyst.  The four-time World Champion joined the NBA on TNT team this year, alongside former players Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith, and longtime sportscaster Ernie Johnson.

Some may have felt that the gregarious Shaq would've made a natural transition into such a career, but if the accidental "s-bomb" he dropped last night is any indication, he still has some work to do.

Kenny Smith's reaction to the gaffe?  Priceless.
