Lets see, cute bunnies, insane Bridezillas, dogs on trampolines and reporters freaking out. You got a better way to waste five minutes today?

Make sure you stay for the face wash…

Oh yeah. That’s letting the crazy out. Get ‘em with the mannequin.

This is just cruel. A break up phone service. NSFW!

Maybe the coolest animated video ever using real footage.

News at 0:00, reporter losing it at 1:00. Wait for it….

Dogs On Trampolines. Oh Yeah.

I don’t mean to be insensitive to Farrah Fawcett, her family or any teen boy whose ever got “romantic” with her pin up, but is all this protest really necessary?

Some seem to be up in arms that Farrah was not included in the “In Memoriam” section of the Oscars on Sunday.

So the question is: did they leave her out on purpose? The answer appears to be yes. A rep for the Academy Awards has said they can’t include everyone.

I won’t try to debate whether she should, or should not have been included.  She was an actress, so I think she would qualify.

Also, what about Bea Arthur, Billy Mays, Alania Reed Hall (Susan from Sesame Street), Ed McMahon, Don Hewitt (60 Minutes producer), Henry Gibson and Ricardo “Fantasy Island” Montalban!

They didn’t make the cut either.  I think this is a situation where you can’t please everybody, because it’s such a subjective topic.

I say if you want to remember Farrah, go rent Logan’s Run, The Cannonball Run or the original Charlie’s Angel’s DVD’s.  I’m sure she’d want to be recalled for her life, rather than her death.

I still am in WTF mode after hearing about the kid at JFK airport in New York who got to be the air traffic controller for the day.

Was anyone in danger? Probably not.  Was it the dumbest idea ever?  I’d say yes.

Here’s how it went down:

The kid was probably just repeating what his father told him, and the pilots probably thought it was funny.  Still, come on.

Even with a parents supervision, you wouldn’t want kids answering 911 calls.  You wouldn’t want them operating blow torches.  You don’t want them fixing the brakes on your car.

Congratulations to you Mr. Take Your Child To Work and let them direct dozens of aircraft like Matchbox cars.  You with the Bonehead Of The Day Award.

orcaJust like you, I’m a little creeped out about what the Killer Whale taking out its trainer at Sea World. Somewhere in your head you know that it’s a wild creature, but you never expect the thing to turn on you.

One person said the whale saw the trainer’s pony tail and grabbed it.  Other accounts say the thing jumped out of the water like Jaws and grabbed her.

I don’t know how it went down, but I do know these things about killer whales.

1.  If you traverse onto a rock barrier wall between the ocean and its containment pool, the whale will jump over you, Free Willy style, when you raise your fist in the air.  Also, expect to get wet.

2. Michael Jackson’s music seems to play when killer whales are around.

3. Chris Farley has to date, made the funniest SNL sketch about whales at marine theme parks.

4. Even though it has Bo Derek’s first role, the movie Orca still sucks.

5. I’m not ever getting into one of those nasty giant fish tanks that the whales swim in.

That’s being said.  I don’t fear the sea creatures themselves, that’s what leads to hating them.  I’m just gonna give them their space and not get in their way.  Mmmm…yeah probably a good idea.

I’m not sure what’s more insane, that stupid pot hole that I hit on Stoughton Road which they don’t seem to fix or John Mayer.

I guess it’s John Mayer. Remember these are his quotes which fall into the TMI category….

The singer dished on exes Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Simpson to Playboy Magazine, saying that some of the rumors that Aniston dumped him over his Twitter addiction were actually fairly accurate. According to Mayer, she saw his “involvement in technology as courting distraction.”

Then, he took a snarky dig at the 41-year-old actress, saying, “I can’t change the fact that I need to be 32.”

When it comes to Jessica Simpson, however, the details were far juicier, with Mayer revealing that their sex life took a walk on the wild side more often than not. “That girl is like crack cocaine to me…sexually it was crazy…it was like napalm, sexual napalm.”

JohnMayerJessicaSimpsonTogeMayer, a self-proclaimed sex addict, went on to reveal how far he would go to keep banging a girl that made his eyes roll back in his head. “There are people in the world who have the power to change our values. Have you ever been with a girl who made you want to…say, ‘I want to quit my life and just f***ing snort you? If you charged me $10,000 to f*** you, I would start selling all my shit just to keep f***ing you.’”

The no-holds-barred interview has also gotten the singer into some hot water with the African American community after he claimed that “black people love me,” and divulged that when someone recently inquired on how it was to have a “hood pass,” he said that such a thing would really be called a “n***** pass.” He also referred to his penis as a “white supremacist.”

OK dude, you win. The Stoughton Road pothole has nothing over your level of insanity.

I think the winner goes to newly elected Republican Senator Elect Scott Brown from Massachusetts.

It’s not because of his politics.  It’s not because he took some freaky photos for Cosmo back in the day.  It’s not because he’s checking into sex rehab with Tiger Woods.

It’s not because of anything he did, until he was giving the following speech.

He was saying thanks to his supporters and started introducing his family.  His daughters Ayla and Arianna are to his left and right, when at the rally, in the presence of cameras which were sure to use the footage in their national news coverage…he outs his daughter as available.

Dude!  Not cool.  The funny thing is he knew he was in trouble after he said it.

How about a good rick roll for today?

That’s coming, but first a video of a call-in talk show where a person gives their story…which surprisingly sounds similar to The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

The real Fresh Prince theme:

Now for a good Rick Rolling. (Rick Roll: tricking someone into listening to, or repeating the lyrics to Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up.“)

And finally, if you haven’t ripped your eyeballs out yet. You just might after watching Martha Stewart pole dance on her TV show.

conan

As of press time, we’re still waiting for an announcement that Conan O’Brien will be leaving The Tonight Show and NBC.

I say this with a heavy heart, because I’ve always been a Conan fan, and I’m wondering WTF?

From the media reports, it looks like Conan is going to take a $40 million dollar payout for saying goodbye. I guess if there were a price to be paid for leaving your dream job, $40 million is close to it. It looks like the delay with the announcement is from Conan’s demand for a payout for his entire staff too. That’s pretty stand up.

I have a good feeling that Conan will bounce back with a show on another network, but that doesn’t excuse the way he’s being treated. If the ratings were that bad, why not just say “the ratings are bad and that’s why Conan is out.” Instead, this drama seems to be painting Jay Leno and NBC in a bad light.

They say any publicity is good publicity, but I don’t think that may be true in this case. I think this has been around long enough that there is a resentment building up from folks who think O’Brien is getting screwed.

I could be wrong. This all may blow over in a month’s time or so. We seem to have an attention span that lasts about as long as it takes to drink a beer on Badger game day….

Wait…what were we talking about again?

americandiolEvery time American Idol returns for a new season, the same question pops up in my head.

“Is it OK to laugh at the idiots who make fools of themselves in the Idol audition process?”

I think these people are a mix of:

  • People who have no idea they can’t sing, don’t realize it and no one has told them.
  • People being duped by others who tell them they can sing, but actually cannot.
  • People who can’t sing, but are blinded by their own thoughts of self worth.
  • People who know they can’t sing, but want their 15 seconds of fame.
  • Planted people, who are placed on the show on purpose, to look bad.

So, is it cruel to laugh at their downfall? In most cases, no. They are well aware that they could be going on national TV, and the wake up call may actually be a good thing for them. We’ve watched American Idol for long enough to know what the judges expect.

We know its not this….(circa 2007)

Rolling Stones , Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger

Rock legends THE ROLLING STONES have blasted rumours they’re planning to tour this year without guitarist RONNIE WOOD – insisting they have no gigs scheduled for 2010.

The band was rumored to have met behind Woods’ back to discuss ditching him, because of his ongoing struggle with alcohol addiction and his doomed high profile relationship with young lover Ekaterina Ivanova.

Sources claimed songwriters Sir Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were seeking a replacement for a 2010 tour that would include a gig at this summer’s (10) Glastonbury Festival in England.

The gossip has prompted the group to release a statement to NME.com, denying they have any upcoming plans to hit the road.
The statement reads, “Following recent UK media speculation, The Rolling Stones would like to make it clear there are no plans at the moment for the band to tour in 2010.”
