Little Pug Going to Town on Watermelon Will Make Anyone's Day Brighter
Pugs are cute. Happy Pugs are cute, screaming Pugs are cute, and eating Pugs are cute. And while each of these Pug activities is capable of inducing just about anyone into a state of total cuteness overload, we think that a Pug eating takes the cake in terms of total cuteness.
Just take a look at this video, in which one truly precious Pug is having the time of his life, munching away on the crunchiest piece of watermelon that a Pug ever did munch on.
Just look at that scratchy little face! This little guy is simply too cute for words. We could look at those adorable little wrinkles all day, and that would pretty much be the perfect day.
By the same token, we can listen to this little Pug's precious munching sounds as he crunches away eating that juicy, delicious slice of fruity amazingness.We wonder if this little guy has any idea how much joy he is bringing to the world in this clip? One thing is for certain, though, he is definitely enjoying going to town on that watermelon slice!
Apparently, this little Pug also doubles as a leprechaun and enjoys throwing back a good pint of Guinness, as well. We are so glad to know that his diet is not just limited to tasty watermelon, LOL.
And of course, just like any good leprechaun dog, he enjoys munching on four-leaf clovers and running around in search of his pot of gold.
What we wouldn't give to go celebrate St. Patrick's Day with this little guy. Then again, if we did, we would not call it St. Patrick's Day. No, on that occasion, we would call it St. Puggies' day!

'Michael Collins' Blu-Ray Review - A Captivating Look At A Real-Life Revolutionary
Michael Collins tells the powerful, turbulent story of one of Ireland's most controversial patriots and revolutionary heroes, known as 'The Lion Of Ireland', who leads his countrymen in their fight for independence. Set in the early 20th century, when a monumental history of oppression and bloodshed had divided Ireland and its people, the film covers the bloody 1916 Easter Uprising, when Irish revolutionaries surrendered to the overwhelming military power of the British forces and Collins was arrested. Upon his release, he takes leadership of the Irish independence movement and strives to create a free and peaceful country. For thoughts on Michael Collins, please check out my thoughts on No Streaming Required: Video Quality Michael Collins was released on Blu-Ray in 2016 courtesy of the Warner Archive with a sturdy 1080p transfer derived from a 2K scan of the Interpositive. This is not the most overtly colorful film, but key pieces of production design and some stunning environments compensate for this with some bold hues. The transfer retains the valuable texture of the natural film grain that resolves evenly throughout the journey. There is a plethora of detail uncovered within the backgrounds and on some of the costumes. No signs of ugly compression artifacts or banding were spotted throughout. Warner Archive allows this one to look its best. Audio Quality This Blu-Ray features a stirring DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio surround sound track that commendably showcases the original soundscape. This track provides a presentation clear of any obvious blemishes or digital anomalies that would disrupt the viewing experience. Dialogue is crisp and clear without being overshadowed by narratively impactful sound effects. The environmental noises are not distractingly showy in the rear speakers, but everything expands out quite naturally. The exceptional score from Elliot Goldenthal is treated respectfully and blends well within the mix. This track is a winner. Optional English SDH, French, Spanish, and an array of other subtitles are provided for those who desire them. Special Features Audio Commentary: Director Neil Jordan provides a commentary track recorded in 2015 in which he reflects on the production of the film, his inspiration for wanting to tell this story, the dramatic license he took with the film, the response to the film, the history of Ireland, and more. In Conversation with Neil Jordan: A nearly five-minute interview with the filmmaker who introduces the film and discusses its legacy. South Bank Show: A 51-minute episode of the series that explores the release of Michael Collins through interviews with Neil Jordan, Liam Neeson, producer Stephen Wooley, historians, and more, along with historical and behind-the-scenes footage. Deleted Scenes: There is a six-minute collection of unused material provided. Theatrical Trailer (1:44) Final Thoughts Michael Collins is a captivating look at a real-life historical figure who fought for his country with a ferociousness and tenacity that made him a hero and a villain, depending on the perspective. Liam Neeson offers one of his strongest dramatic turns here, and the remainder of the ensemble match him (when they are given the right material). The film has a mighty runtime, but the direction of Neil Jordan ensures that the film is never less than gripping. Warner Archive has released a Blu-Ray featuring a worthy A/V presentation and welcome special features. If you appreciate a good historical drama, this one is a winner. Recommended Michael Collins can be purchased directly through MovieZyng or through various other online retailers. Note: Images presented in this review are not reflective of the image quality of the Blu-Ray. Disclaimer: Warner Archive has supplied a copy of this disc free of charge for review purposes.

World's oldest restaurant faces challenge from Madrid tavern that says its even older
MADRID -- In the heart of Spain's capital, Sobrino de Botín holds a coveted Guinness World Record as the world's oldest restaurant. Exactly three hundred years after it opened its doors, Botín welcomes droves of daily visitors hungry for Castilian fare with a side of history. But on the outskirts of Madrid, far from the souvenir shops and tourist sites, a rustic tavern named Casa Pedro makes a bold claim. Its owners assert the establishment endured not just the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s and the Napoleonic invasion in the early 1800s, but even the War of Spanish Succession at the start of the 18th century — a lineage that would make Casa Pedro older than Botín and a strong contender for the title. 'It's really frustrating when you say, 'Yes, we've been around since 1702,' but ... you can't prove it,' said manager and eighth-generation proprietor Irene Guiñales. 'If you look at the restaurant's logo, it says 'Casa Pedro, since 1702,' so we said, 'Damn it, let's try to prove it.'' Guiñales, 51, remembers her grandfather swearing by Casa Pedro's age, but she was aware that decades-old hearsay from a proud old-timer wouldn't be enough to prove it. Her family hired a historian and has so far turned up documents dating the restaurant's operations to at least 1750. That puts them within striking distance of Botín's record. Both taverns are family-owned. Both offer Castilian classics like stewed tripe and roast suckling pig. They are decorated with charming Spanish tiles, feature ceilings with exposed wooden beams and underground wine cellars. And both enjoy a rich, star-studded history. Botín's celebrated past includes a roster of literary patrons like Truman Capote, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Graham Greene. In his book 'The Sun Also Rises,' Ernest Hemingway described it as 'one of the best restaurants in the world." While Casa Pedro may not have boasted the same artistic pedigree, it boasts its own VIPs. Its walls are adorned with decades-old photographs of former Spanish King Juan Carlos I dining in one of its many rooms. The current Spanish monarch, King Felipe VI dines there, too, albeit more inconspicuously than his father. But the similarities between the two hotspots end there. Casa Pedro was once a stop on the only road heading north from the Spanish capital toward France. Its clientele is largely local regulars, like David González and Mayte Villena, who for years have spent every Friday lunching at the tavern. 'It wouldn't change a thing for us,' Villena said about the restaurant someday securing the Guinness title. Botín, on the other hand, is a stone's throw from Madrid's famed Plaza Mayor, where any day of the week tour guides are herding groups around town — and often straight through the restaurant's front door. Antonio González, a third-generation proprietor of Botín, concedes that the Guinness accolade awarded in 1987 has helped business, but said the restaurant had enough history to draw visitors even before. 'It has a certain magic,' he said. The question then becomes: How can either restaurant definitively claim the title? Guinness provides its specific guidelines for the superlative only to applicants, according to spokesperson Kylie Galloway, noting that it entails 'substantial evidence and documentation of the restaurant's operation over the years." González said that Guinness required Botín show that it has continuously operated in the same location with the same name. The only time the restaurant closed was during the COVID-19 pandemic, as did Casa Pedro. That criteria would mean that restaurants that are even older — Paris' Le Procope, which says it was founded in 1686, or Beijing's Bianyifang, founded in 1416, or the 1673-established White Horse Tavern in Newport, Rhode Island — aren't eligible for the designation. La Campana, in Rome's historic center, claims over 500 years of operation, citing documents on its menu and in a self-published history. Its owners say they have compiled the requisite paperwork and plan to submit it to Guinness. Guiñales and her husband couldn't consult archives from the former town of Fuencarral, now a Madrid neighborhood. Those papers went up in flames during the Spanish Civil War. Instead, they delved into Spanish national archives, where they found land registries of the area from the First Marquess of Ensenada (1743-1754) that showed the existence of a tavern, wine cellar and inn in the small town as of 1750. In their spare time, the couple continues to hunt for records proving that Casa Pedro indeed dates back to 1702, as is proclaimed on its walls, takeout bags and sugar packets. But even if they dig up the final documents and wrest the Guinness honor from Botín, Guiñales concedes that her restaurant's quiet location makes it unlikely to draw Botín's clientele in central Madrid. 'To think that we could reach that public would be incredible,' Guiñales said. 'It's a dream, but it's a dream.'

Ed Sheeran Defends Saying He Is Culturally Irish
On Tuesday, Ed Sheeran's appearance on The Louis Theroux Podcast was released, and one headline that came out of the interview ended up causing quite a stir on social media. During the chat, 34-year-old Ed, who was born and raised in Suffolk, England, said that he identifies culturally as Irish. This is arguably fair enough as Ed's father is Irish and hails from Belfast, with Ed spending much of his childhood in his dad's home country of Ireland. "I class my culture as Irish. I think that's what I grew up with," he told Louis. "My dad's family is... he's got seven brothers and sisters. We'd spend all of our holidays in Ireland. My first musical experiences were in Ireland, I grew up with trad music in the house. So I identify culturally as Irish, but I was obviously born and raised in Britain." "I don't overthink it, but I do feel like my culture is something that I'm really proud of and grew up with and want to express," Ed went on. "And I feel like just because I was born in Britain doesn't necessarily mean that I have to just be [British], there's loads of people I know that are half this or quarter this." "I don't think there's any rules to it. It should be how you feel and how you were raised and what you lean into,' he continued, and when Louis asked if he gets 'a lot of love' in Ireland, Ed said: 'It's basically my second home, musically. I'd say Ireland is the place that I am most successful musically." Before long, headlines along the lines of: 'Ed Sheeran says he identifies culturally as Irish' began to emerge on social media, and without the additional context of his dad's heritage as well as his childhood in Ireland, people were quick to mock the star's comments. 'I've seen B*Witched live and have watched a couple of Gaelic football games, which I think gives me an even more legitimate claim to be culturally Irish than Ed Sheeran,' one person in tweeted in response to one of the news stories. 'Me after 1 Guinness,' somebody else wrote, while another popular response reads: 'Made a song called 'Galway Girl' and now thinks he's Irish.' And on Wednesday, Ed took to his Instagram story to hit back at the discourse as he shared a screenshot of a comment that he left for the haters. 'For anyone with an opinion after what I said about my heritage on the @officiallouistheroux podcast x,' Ed wrote alongside the grab.'My dad is Irish. My family is Irish. I have an Irish passport,' Ed's comment begins. 'The culture I was brought up around is Irish. The first music I learnt was Irish.''Just coz I was born somewhere else doesn't change my culture,' he went on. 'I can be allowed to feel connection to a place half of my family is from.' You tell 'em, Ed — what do you make of his post? Let me know in the comments down below!
