Not only are they two of Hollywood (and Boston’s) most well known best buddies, but Matt Damn and Ben Affleck are related!

The actors/do-gooders are descendants of bricklayer William Knowlton, Jr. (1615-1655), of Ipswich. He was born in England but made his way to America in the 1630s.

But this is all just so mundane for cyclist Lance Armstrong. He now has his sights set on the big prize. Ironman Kona! And not just FINISHING the Ironman, Lance wants to win. And not his age division. THE WHOLE THING!

“2011, [Lance Armstrong] will be here. He’s super psyched and I think he wants to do more than win his age group,” said Carmichael, who is in Hawaii to observe the 2010 World Championships, taking place on Saturday.

This isn’t so new to Lance. Before he was a cyclist, he competed in sprint distance triathlons.

Is there anything he won’t do?

Every once in a while, you see a photo that is just screaming for a caption contest.

This photo is of Mel Gibson filming The Beaver with Jodie Foster.  The options are nearly endless.

Do your worst!
