Diet Pepsi - Forever Young

For some reason I've had this drafted since January. I just found it and I guess tonight's a good time to publish it since I just posted the real thing on MummyHeart.

Diet Pepsi - forever young commercial

Project Make McCain Exciting: Gray Ambition

More than meets the eye

I just heard about this tonight on The Colbert Report. I thought it was a joke so I Googled "Megatron airport."

The story is true. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Dangerous New Global Terrorist Group Identified

excerpts:

New group targeted by Western governments as Al Qaeda fades into the background

A dangerous new terrorist group has been identified by the governments of the Western world who fear it already has operatives all over the globe and is an imminent threat to security.

The new group has been identified as the "T-shirt wearing terrorists".

I jest of course, the government has not identified a new axis of evil that will keep you scrubbing at your soiled underwear for another few years. However, federal officials, police and security guards the world over continue to harass and arrest innocent people going about their daily business for wearing what are deemed to be "offensive" or "threatening" t-shirts.

The latest case was reported in the British press today.

An airline passenger has claimed that a security guard threatened to arrest him because he was wearing a T-shirt showing a cartoon robot with a gun.

Brad Jayakody, 30, from London, said he was stopped from passing through security at Heathrow's Terminal 5 after his Transformers T-shirt was deemed 'offensive.'

Mr Jayakody said the first guard started joking with him about the Transformers character depicted on his French Connection T-shirt.

'"Then he explains that since Megatron is holding a gun, I'm not allowed to fly,' he said.

[...]
Another potential terrorist was apprehended when a lawyer was arrested and charged with trespassing at a public mall in the state of New York after refusing to take off a T-shirt he had just purchased at the mall bearing the words "Give Peace A Chance".

Because I knew there would be some fine specimens here

and I needed wanted a distraction tonight, I clicked on this link:

AfterElton.com's Hot 100 for 2008!

Standouts:
James Franco (#99) - don't know who he is, but he's darn cute in a John Taylor of Duran Duran sort of way.
Hayden Christensen (#98)
Jake Shears (#91) - love his voice
Patrick Dempsey (#55)
James McAvoy (#45)
Hugh Jackman (#28)
Christian Bale (#26)
Luke MacFarlane (#3) - who dis? He's cute!
John Barrowman (#2) - again I ask who dis? Nice eyes!


Don't get it:

Adam Levine (#81) - puh-LEEZE!
Shia LaBeouf (#79) - who took this picture? That's just nasty, that.
David Beckham (#12) - he's very cute...until he opens his mouth. Shame really.
Jake Gyllenhaal (#1) - number 1? Really??

I must admit, I don't know who half these men boys are. Most of them are young enough to be my younger brother.

I don't know why THIS fine gent wasn't on the list:

Yes, that's Billy "fcukin' " Idol. Still a badass at 52. And still sex on legs. Aged to a fine vintage like good wine. Yum.

What a nut job

[Did I not post this already?? Apparently I forgot to. It's old now, but the videos are still hilarious]

If you haven't seen the Tom Cruise video, you HAVE to watch it because it's so bizarre you'll think these parodies are exaggerating. Scarily enough they are not.

My Stitch n' Bitch friends brought these to my attention.

Tom Cruise's Scientology Video from The Late Late Show



Jerry O'Connell In Tom Cruise Video Spoof

Jason booted off AI

He should have laid off the ganja.

Although, who knows. It doesn't really look like pot smoke in the infamous picture (which I won't post here but you can see it here.

I liked Jason - what a great smile. In fact, I'm going to grab my review of American Idol from the Habesha Child blog and post it here, it was that clever long and I'm that lazy:



David Cook? Needs a bath and a shave. Plus I DO NOT find him original. AT ALL. Waste of space. He needs to shut up.

David Archuleta? He’s a mere puppy. He sings like he still needs to hit puberty. Plus, I could not listen to a whole CD of him breathing his way through one ballad after another. Waste of space. *yawn*

Syesha? Good voice but not great. I find her the least offensive of the bunch. Plus, I LOVED that orange dress she wore Tuesday night. LOVE. IT.

Jason? He was very nice to look at - beautiful, infectious smile. I think he was happy to go, though. He had a nice but not very powerful voice. Not enough range, I’m afraid. He should talk to Whoopie’s stylist about trimming the dreds.

Overall, this season of AI is a snorefest. After the departures of Michael Johns and then Brooke White, I just couldn’t be arsed to watch.

The finale will be about as thrilling as the one where Taylor Hicks won.

SOUL PATROL!! my bleedin' foot!

Evidence

I KNEW Wombles were real!!

Thanks to Rana for the link to this furry goodness.

What a week!

I've been devastated twice this week.

Because of this:

Claire was booted from ANTM













And because of this:

Michael Johns was booted from AI

WTF??

It's Armageddon, I tell you. Armageddon!

You go girl!!

Sheesh, I must be the world's biggest sap.

I just saw Amy Winehouse performing on the Grammys (live via satellite from London) and at the end of the performance I was bawling like a baby.

She not only sounded great, but she looked great (I read she went to the dentist yesterday and had a crown fitted so she's lost that gap-toothed crack addict look). Other than being painfully thin, she looked healthy and made some great, playful eye contact with the camera.

It was at the end when she said thanks and that she was honored to be able to perform, that I started crying. I just wish her all the best and I hope she can successfully overcome her drug problems. I think she is an extremely talented young woman.

p.s. Tina Turner can STILL ROCK IT!! She looks a bit like my mom 10-15 years ago (if she was into the rock and roll).

p.p.s. I LOVE Andy Williams. How great to see him tonight!

Chocolate - the new crack

The perfect Valentine's chocolate. Or maybe not.



I honestly don't understand this product. Why is it here? Who's idea was it? I know that chocolate can be as addictive as crack, but this is just silly.

Can you imagine biting into one of these bad boys?

Not I. And I love chocolate.



...........It's Belgian chocolate you say?

Hmmmm...

Guilty pleasure, this

I can't stop laughing at this video. I feel sorry for the model, but...DAYUM, that's funny!



And the reaction in the newsroom is hilarious:

"Patchwork! Snatchwork!"

Colin and Justin's Home Heist

Does anyone watch this show? It's my favorite of shows from the fabulous boys yet! There are some fantastic one-liners - especially during the first few mintues as they walk through the homeowner's house for the first time, criticizing each room.

Tonight's episode ("Clutter Nutter") had me loudly guffawing quite a lot - especially with these two lines:

"This isn't a kitchen...it's bitchin'"

"Patchwork! Snatchwork!"


You probably had to see it...

Is our children learning?

Make the Pie Higher
by George W. Bush

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It’s a world of madmen and uncertainty
and potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
“Is our children learning?”
“Will the highways of the Internet become more few?”
How many hands have I shaked?

They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pant leg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!
Knock down the toll booth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!

Wha??

OK, who has time to look for these pictures and then magnify them 200%???








...and why do I have time to blog about it.

Hour of Power

I used to know every line of this skit.

"You were THERE!"

hee hee

I just want to buy a melon

This is one of my favorite adverts EVER.

Procrastination

Oooh, he's baaackkk!

Chef Gordon Ramsay, that is.

My heart goes pitter patter just a wee bit when I see that man.

"It tastes like gnat piss!" was my favorite line of the night from him.

And I have never seen so much crying in one show - first night, no less. Some people need to tuck their tails between their legs and scurry on back home.

I actually liked how Vinnie said Chef was all mean and then he goes and says something cute like "rubbish" or "bin" and this makes him laugh. I would laugh too...as my knees go weak at that accent. He swears like a sailor and he's British - sigh. I think Vinnnie was also the guy who said when Chef gets mad his face looks like a wrinkled shar pei - HA! True dat!

AND he's a runner.

Too bad he's married.

(Hugh Grant is still my favorite Brit though - too bad he's a bit of a prat)

I can't wait for next week's Hell's Kitchen. It's "the most shocking Hell's Kitchen ever," don'tcha know!

Gag me with a spoon and then hand me the paper towel please

Monumental event in the household yesterday - da boys first hairball!

du du DUUUHHH!!!

It was delivered at around 5:30 pm, courtesy of Ripley.

And it was delivered directly onto the carpet, as required per Calgary cat bylaw. Being his first, he neglected to back up during the act of depositing so that he could drag the gift across said carpet. I'm sure he'll get good at that with practice.

So, I can add now these little gifts to the barf deposits of late - the barfs are mostly courtesy of Midge, the bulimic cat who eats his dry food so fast that he throws it up immediately. I am currently giving him minuscule amounts of it spaced out over a period of time. It's actually quite disgusting watching him eat that fast.

Sort of like me with a box of 6 Cinnabons. The large ones.
