The Ballad of Little E’s Jazz Club

Little E's Jazz Club in Pittsburgh

No more food please, I'm just here for the sax.

Enter Little E’s. A club/restaurant downtown that gives Pittsburgh the sounds of jazz it rarely hears. Little E’s sports a fully stocked bar and restaurant menu. They trumpet various performances each and every night. And even if you can’t reed the menu, it is easy to enjoy the simplicity of Little E’s; the symphony here is not created for your mouth, but for your ears.

Have you ever pooped on your own foot?

I have. It was early. Before work. I went to sit down. Felt something on my foot. Where did that come from? How’d it get there? How does one poop on the front of their own foot? So I wondered, how many other people have done this?

So please share your poop stories with me: pooptales@yahoo.com

Still no shots of Anne Hathaway, but boy does Jake Gyllenhaal have some good energy. You should have seen him running around! Click continue for more photos…

Ok fans, stalkers, and paparazzi… we found out where Jake Gyllenhaal (and Anne Hathaway?) will be next! Haddad trucks were spotted earlier hanging around the old Don Allen GM dealership at the intersection of Baum Blvd/Liberty Ave/S. Atlantic. They were transporting equipment and supplies for Love and Other Drugs. Mad props to the set design team (no pun intended)! They really transformed this place from a gutted old car dealership to an electronics store. Click ahead for more pics!

Haddad's Trucks Spotted in Shadyside

As we shared earlier on Twitpic, Haddad’s Trucks were spotted this morning. These days that can only mean one thing – or one of three things… Either the filming of Love and Other Drugs starring Jake Gyllenhaal; The Next Three Days with Russell Crowe; or Denzel Washington in Unstoppable.

Can you guess the location from the clues in the picture?
