‘2012′ Looks Like Fun – Not

2009 October 14

The movie isn’t of interest to me, like I need additional disasters to have nightmares about. However, the special effects are interesting and this little video shows a glimpse of how they made the devastating scenes come to life.

What do you think will happen in the year 2012? A shift in consciousness, huge catastrophes, or a few new Starbucks blends?

Breast Implants Are Not Safety Cushions

2009 October 14

Yeah, more antics from the brilliant participants on the ‘Real World/Road Rules Challenge’. I feel bad for the girl and honestly, most of these girls probably have them right? But perhaps she should have read the safety sheet for those new funbags she purchased. Just a suggestion.

Music Recommendation – Brandi Carlile’s ‘Give Up the Ghost’

2009 October 14

I’ve been a fan for quite sometime, her music for me is a blend of country, rock, and folk. Her voice can be heartbreaking and cutting at the same time, with a nice touch of country musicality thrown in. Highly recommended.

Click the picture to get to iTunes to purchase this release if you are so inclined.

Radio App Coming to the iPhone?

2009 October 14

If you’ve ever played with AOL Radio or even Pandora, you know that they’re pretty good for listening to “radio” but you can’t do anything else while doing so. I’m not sure if this application that Apple is developing will allow it to run in the background, but the rumors are that it will. Here’s hoping!Apple Radio

According to CNET, an Apple news site says the functionality of the application will be similar to what Apple built into the iPod Nano. That includes the ability to pause live FM transmissions and fast-forward when you resume playing.

According to 9 to 5 Mac, the delay in getting the app to market is Apple’s decision to integrate it with the iTunes Store, which is built into the devices. With this integration, people will be able to tap on a song they hear on the radio and buy it through iTunes.

Why People (Might) Hate John Mayer

2009 October 14

John MayerNo, it’s not because of his music so much…although I haven’t personally ever been drawn to it. It’s not because he’s unattractive because he’s quite easy on the eyes – and I would venture to even say that he’s smart, cerebral even. But then he turns around and gives an interview like this, you know, cause he’s being funny. Or maybe just an asshole. What do you think?

What do you think about health care? Would you take the public option?

Have you ever heard me play guitar? I’m really fucking good. You know what I’m bad at? Answering questions about public health care. This is not in my wheelhouse. Do you have any questions about music? I almost got a mad need to lighten up. You need to lighten up, because the questions you asked me were all trouble-making questions. If someone gave me the Nobel Peace Prize, and I didn’t deserve it, I would just shut my mouth and enjoy the hell out of it.

Which I’m sure he’s doing.
What’s he going to do, send it back? It’s like I’m getting a wrongful bulge in my pants and everyone’s thinking I’ve got a nine-inch cock. I’m not going to argue with them, I’m going to let them think I have a nine-inch cock.”

How about a style question?
“Yes, this seems to be apropos. Do you get paid for this?”

I do it more for fun.
“You do this for fun? That’s like me saying … never mind.”

What do you think about guys with seventies mustaches?
“I don’t give a fuck about who wears their face what way. If I could grow a beard, I’d have some nutty things going on on my face.”

You can’t grow a beard?
“It’s a pituitary thing. I know you’re not that much of a moron.

These are questions my editor wanted me to ask. I’m trying to build my journalistic career here.
“You’re not building a journalistic career. You’re making yourself look like a moron and you’re not a moron. Who’s your editor?”

Jada.
“Jada is making you sound like a moron in front of people.”

Why don’t you tell me about your new album? You’ve been in the studio for a while.
“I have a record coming out November 17.”

Any particular theme or inspiration behind this one that makes it different from previous albums?
“Look what we’re doing right now! We’re connecting right now! This is great! Yeah, it’s going to be quite melodically bright, but the themes are all about heartbreak.”

Sunday Morning Music – Kate Earl

2009 August 23

So I picked up this “CD” a week or two ago and I have to say, I’m really loving it. As with most albums, there’s a track that sucks you in and you just know you have to have the rest right? Sometimes you’re disappointed and you realize that there was an obvious reason why they released that single, but sometimes you realize that song is just the tip of a sonic iceberg. That’s how I feel about this artist, Kate Earl.

You can pick up the release here if you enjoy the song below.

Props to Lil Kim – You Sing It Girl!

2009 July 21

Check out this video of Cyndi Lauper and Lil Kim singing a combo of “Time After Time” and “Lighters Up” and you know, it’s pretty nice – organic even! I might recommend Lil Kim moisturizing her throat a bit but kudos for her for breaking out the singing voice! A true artist pushes themself right? Nothing but praise for you Lil Kim and you’ve never looked more beautiful.

Monkey, Grab The Pradas

2009 July 21

Can you imagine if you had a monkey that you could train to do such things as fetch a ball, bang a drum, perhaps even steal some of your neighbor’s things? Check out this video where a man has trained his monkey (the animal) to go into his neighbor’s yard and take things.

I wonder if I could get a monkey to steal a boat, might that task be too big? Goals, goals my friends.

Dear Christian Bale: Please Don’t Fight The Hotness

2009 July 14

Christian Bale The MachinistYou might remember when Christian Bale played in The Machinist, he lost about 60+ lbs. to play a crackhead. I use the term crackhead as an all-inclusive term.

Well, playing a crackhead seems to pay quite well because he’s at it again. In his new movie that he’s filming, The Fighter, he plays a boxer turned trainer, turned drug addict named Dickie Eklund. (source: Just Jared)
