Most major film and television characters have an IMDB page listing basic information and episodes or movies they appeared in. But Ron Swanson of "Parks & Recreation" has a real-person page, as an actor/writer. And it is appallingly bare.

While he's credited with writing "Walker, Texas Ranger" and several other Chuck Norris vehicles, it fails to even sniff the true greatness and myriad accomplishments of this man of men. So let's fix this, internet. Help us round out Ron Swanson's IMDB profile. Here are some suggested credits to get the ball rolling:

A couple weeks ago we brought you awesomely overblown board game commercials from the late '80s/early '90s, and now we're doing the same with cereal commercials, that other sector of advertising that uses bright colors and loud noises to Trix trick kids into buying (usually) terrible products.

As an adult, it's staggering to revisit these and see how many are just variations on the "one party stealing the nonsensically unattainable cereal from another party" trope. The similarities don't stop there: Most of them trumpet the doesn't-exist-in-real-life "complete breakfast." Seriously, did ANYBODY ever eat their sugar-centric cereal with banana slices, plus a tall glass of fresh-squeezed, a piece of toast with a perfect square of butter in the center and a blueberry muffin? Also, that's not even healthy! GTFO, cereal industry.

Anyway, on to the commercials that made us fat.

Jenny McCarthy just inked a talk show deal with VH1, just another success to tally up since her breakout as co-host of MTV's "Singled Out" back in the '90s. While that show only aired from 1995-98, it provided an entire horny generation with a lifetime of memories that taught us even we could find love. Or at least rock khakis, a goatee and earth tones while getting groped by Jenny McCarthy.

But whatever happened to the rest of the "Singled Out" cast and celebrity guests? We did some internet digging to find out. Some, like Fergie (!) are household names, while others, like Donkeylips (!) have faded into obscurity.

New York Knicks' overnight sensation Jermey Lin struck again last night, hitting a three at the buzzer to extend his team's winning streak to six games. Lin racked up another 27 points, giving him 26.8 points and 8.5 assists during the streak.

Through this improbable run, Lin has been alternating between crashing on teammate Landry Fields' couch and his grad student brother's. But the Linja has finally locked up an apartment, in the swanky Trump Towers outside New York City. He may want to hold off on buying a bed, though. Some athletes have lucky socks, some don't shave and Jeremy Lin's hot streak started by sleeping on couches. Until the Knicks lose, Lin needs to keep the tradition going, so here are five kick-ass couches he should purchase and use as beds for the foreseeable future. Sure, it may make it harder to seal the deal with groupies, but then, so will losing.

Vanilla Ice reinvented himself as an indie rocker for a recent sketch by "The Soup." The video is a send-up of Lana Del Rey-types who try to craft indie cred, as well as hipsters and their love of obscure musical instruments and their ability to fold irony in on itself like a giant smirking origami swan. But mainly, the sketch treats us to necessary acoustic rock renditions of "Ice Ice Baby" and "Ninja Rap."

All in all, Vanilla turned in a solid performance. But 'Nilla isn't the first rapper to try his hand at sketch comedy. Below, we've compiled 10 other skits featuring hip-hop stars and we graded their ability to channel their inner Will Ferrell. Read on to find out who has legit comedy chops and whose jokes are wack.

Comedian, actor and unintentional inventor of the "Louie deal," Louis C.K., is untouchable right now. Last night Hilarious took home the Grammy for Best Comedy Album, showing why the comedy category is greeted with fewer wincing chuckles (ironic!) than some other categories. In the process of shielding us from hearing the phrase "Grammy winner Kathy Griffin," C.K. joins the ranks of George Carlin, Chris Rock, Steve Martin, Eddie Murphy, Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor and Bill Cosby, who all won Grammys for comedy. The difference, though, is that Louis did it while writing, editing, directing, and starring in a show so funny and honest it is elevated to the realm of high art. We can't wait to see how he works this Grammy win into the next season of "Louie," probably as some beautiful analogy for filthy sex.

The World Snowboarding Championships kicks off in Oslo, Norway, this week and as we mentioned yesterday during our chat with Andrew W.K., the WSC brought in the rocker/partier extraordinaire as the "Official Rock And Roll Ambassador" to get the festivities started.

So Mr. W.K. teamed up with the WSC Band and dropped the stompin' new song "My Time." Next month, Andrew W.K. will be touring for the 10th anniversary of I Get Wet, but for the next week he's in Oslo hosting concerts and parties. And our jerky 2-D editor Ryan McKee (as well as hordes of Nordic babes) will be there for it all. We eagerly await Ryan's tales of snowboarding and debauchery.

We can't imagine being a weatherman is a particularly exciting job. You spend your days reading a bunch of radar bleeps and bloops, and licking your finger and placing it in the air, only to get yelled at by everyone for being wrong about the weather all the time.

That must be why WBKB weatherman Tom Murphy adds entire cumulus layers of swag to his forecasts. A typical weather report from the Michigan anchor involves quoting anyone from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to Nelly and Fat Joe. Maybe he needs to update his rap references...and wordplay centered around "drizzle." Check out the hip-hop weatherman in action below.

Our pal Erik Roner from "Nitro Circus" is back with another edition of Roner Vision, this time heading to the Powder Magazine awards and doing some extreme tree slalom in Canada. In between all that, he crammed in cameos from Lil Wayne, Wee Man and Mr. T, as well as a baby base jumper. He also had a scary look at an avalanche enveloping one of their cameramen (the dude came out of it with a couple broken ribs and another hole punched in his badass card). It's basically the ski trip of your dreams. Check it out:
