<p>Sadly, outside of sayin&#8217; snarky junk on the radio, I don&#8217;t have much of an artistic flair.  I do have a knack for Googling things and I found some pretty cool artwork:</p>

<p>She can still hit those high notes, but she can&#8217;t seem to write a check out to a New York Vet whom she owes about $30,000.</p>
<p>The vet is suing for what they call &#8220;extraordinary services&#8221; last fall for Carey&#8217;s three Jack Russell terriers, named<strong> Cha-Cha, Dolomite</strong> and <strong>JJ</strong> (not sure which one is pictured with her.)  The doggie doctor says the Grammy Award-winning singer paid only about $8,000 of the nearly $38,000 in charges.</p>
<p>What the heck can be so extraordinary for a dog that costs $38,000?</p>
<p>- Diamond encrusted leash for dogs &amp; husband Nick Cannon?<br />
- Doggie bags made of leather?<br />
- Pooper scoopers of gold?<br />
- Dog tongue enhancement surgery?<br />
- Gold plated dog teeth?</p>

<p><strong>Harrison Ford </strong>and <strong>Calista Flockart </strong>finally decided to tie the knot this week.  Good for them.  I mean after 8 years, just about everybody considers you a married couple anyway.</p>
<blockquote><p>Love works in mysterious ways so who am I to crack the whip?</p>
<p><strong>Bonus: Top quotes overheard at Harrison  Ford&#8217;s wedding:</strong></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>5.  &#8220;Snakes.  Why  did it have to be snakes?&#8221;<br />
4.  &#8220;You can&#8217;t do this to me! I&#8217;m an American!&#8221;<br />
3.  &#8220;Take this. Wave it at anything that slithers.&#8221;<br />
2.  &#8220;You Americans, you&#8217;re all the same. Always overdressing for the  wrong  occasions.&#8221;<br />
1.  &#8220;I don&#8217;t know. I&#8217;m making this up as I go.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Lets just hope the wedding dinner wasn&#8217;t the same as the meal they ate in <em><strong>Indiana Jones and the Temple Of Doom</strong></em>.</p>

He&#8217;s a southern fried American rock icon, but his performance sounded like he had marbles in his mouth.  I liked the beat. I liked the guitars, I just need a translator to figure out what he was saying.

<p>That, or Hollywood just loves taking an old idea, repackaging it for the next generation and making some money off it.</p>
<p>Tomorrow, the new <strong>A Nightmare On Elm Street </strong>opens in theaters, and although <strong>Johnny Depp</strong> wasn&#8217;t included in this one, it may have some legs (or sharp fingers as the case may be.)</p>
<p>The big secret they&#8217;ve been hiding in what Freddy Krueger is going to look like.</p>
<p>This is Rogert Englund from the 1984 version (right).  Pretty freaky.</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s the only images we&#8217;ve been given of the new <strong>Freddy</strong>:</p>
<p>Looks kind of like a burn victim, but that&#8217;s what Freddy is supposed to look like.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ll let you judge for yourself if it will be worthy of your entertainment dollar.</p>

<p>A British woman woman who suffers chronic migraines says the latest one cause her to start speaking with a Chinese accent.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a real thing.  Doctors call it <em><strong>Foreign Accent Syndrome</strong></em>.</p>
<p>Holy Smokes! From now on,  I&#8217;m carrying that bottle of Excedrin with me at all times.  I wonder if I could request a <strong>James Bond</strong> accent?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:Pxqt4gKy1oVHzM:http://www.inquisitr.com/wp-content/american_idol_tv_show.jpg" alt="" width="124" height="93" />Didi Benami</strong> was booted off <strong>American Idol</strong> last night. A little surprising, right? I mean how many times is <strong>Tim Urban</strong> going to be in the bottom three and survive? The dude is probably the worst out of all of them. And if you rebember, he wasn’t even supposed to be in the original top 24. Anyway, the front runners for winning season 9 are <strong>Crystal Bowersox</strong> and <strong>Lee DeWyze</strong>.</p>
<p>Ever wonder who the top selling “American Idols” are of all time? Even if you didn’t, we’re giving you the info anyway. Here are the top 10 best-selling Idols:</p>
<p><strong>10. David Archuleta</strong> — 962,000 albums sold<strong><br />
8. Jordin Sparks</strong> — 1.2 million albums sold (tie)<strong><br />
8. Kellie Pickler</strong> — 1.2 million albums sold (tie)<strong><br />
7. David Cook</strong> — 1.3 million albums sold<strong><br />
6. Fantasia Barrino </strong>— 2.3 million albums sold<strong><br />
5. Ruben Studdard</strong> — 2.5 million albums sold<strong><br />
4. Clay Aiken</strong> — 4.9 million albums sold<strong><br />
3. Chris Daughtry</strong> — 5.3 million albums sold<strong><br />
2. Kelly Clarkson</strong> — 10.4 million albums sold<strong><br />
1. Carrie Underwood</strong> — 10.5 million albums sold</p>
<p>***In regards to American Idol #5 above, how freakin rockin&#8217; did Ruben Studdard look last night?! He credits his weight loss on turning Vegan and working out.</p>

<p>Still it&#8217;s a good idea, unless of course <strong>Bono</strong> or <strong>Prince</strong> are the people doing your investments. Both are modern day geniuses in the music industry, but they&#8217;re not so good when it comes to money.</p>
<p>According to the online publication, 24/7 Wall Street,  <strong>Bono </strong>is &#8220;<em>the worst investor in America</em>. &#8220;  He&#8217;s on an investment team, which claims has made &#8220;an unprecedented string of disastrous investments which even bad luck could not explain.&#8221;  His firm put $460 million into nearly bankrupt Palm smartphone.</p>
