Especially if you live in Washington State. Sales tax rates for hard liquor work out to $26 a gallon and cancer sticks have $2 a pack slapped on them for the government coffers. No casinos, though, so no worries there.

Yeah, yeah, it’s not “officially” summer yet.

But Hollywood doesn’t give a crap about when the calendar says it’s summer. The summer blockbuster season has begun. The first two movies on this infographic already have been released and they’ve been pretty blockbuster-y. And we’re pretty psyched about the rest on the list.

Charlie Sheen may have been getting all of the headlines the last couple of months for being a bad boy, but he’s got nothing on his dad. Not only has Martin Sheen been arrested many more times, he’s been doing it for a good reason (in most cases) and not just to draw attention to himself.
