Planet Sad's Ridiculously Manly Film Still Of The Day

Lurking in the archives of ridiculous manliness, we find Nicolas Cage in Ghost Rider, setting himself on fire - just because he can, you understand. Planet Sad would, of course, like to remind you not to try this at home. That's being Nicolas Cage, not setting yourself on fire...*

*Planet Sad's lawyers, Messrs Huge, Black and Pendulous, would like to advise all readers (hello, both of you!) not to set yourself on fire.

The Adge Files - 'At Least He's Not Flogging Double Glazing' Edition

And here's the latest shameless attempt by a well-known company to try and sucker us into mentioning them. This chap is from a website who would like us to go compare his enormous sidburns to those of various other serial irritants from long-running ad campaigns. But, seeing as we kind of plugged the product, can we have first dibs on ghost-writing his inevitable 'autobiography', which will no doubt be brought out in time to cash in on the lucrative Christmas toilet reading market?
