Slot Machines are Addictive
Wednesday, January 30th, 2008As I sit here at the airport in Las Vegas I dwell in the lost gambling money that I could have had. If I would have followed my senses I would be leaving Vegas with $450 in proffit instead of $250. It is just so f’n addictive. However, I do count my blessings that I am leaving with as much as I have, b/c I easily could have lost it all. I am avoiding the slots which are scattered all over the f’n airport. My flight is in a hour and a half… hopefully I can make it with out going back. The machines will undoubtedly take it all and then some! What is the most somebody here has lost gambling? Knowing this group I would suspect somebody has lost hundreds before if not more. I am glad there are not casinos all over the Atl.
Zombies Meet Guitar Hero
Wednesday, January 30th, 2008Do you like zombies, killing em and playing Guitar Hero at the same time? If so, then We Are Legend: Akropolis is worth a shot.
Basically, after what I would consider a lengthy “this is how you play” introduction, you get to play guitar on the keyboard. The only difference is that the notes are zombies coming across the screen and when you hit a note, a zombie goes up in flames….
It is cool for a couple of min. Not as good as GH because you don’t have a guitar, but this is still a good place to waste a few min while at work.
In a Week of Crazy Radio…
Monday, January 28th, 2008Finally there is something to be glad about. No more 99x, no worries. In the past 3 months all types of crazy things have been happening on the radio waves. We have said goodbye to the Morning X and had to listen to the Bert Show. Even mildly entertaining Steve and Vikki left Star 94. Finally, though, there is good news. The Regular Guys are back on the air. Complete with South-Side Steve and all the interns, one Atlanta radio station is doing something right. Rock 100.5 (formerly Q100, which has taken over 99.7) has now hired the morning DJ’s. Finally a reason to turn off my iPod.
Pink Vagina Couch
Monday, January 28th, 2008Yes. You read the title right. I found this little nugget of gold on “the best of Craigslist.” Evidently, this woman built a couch in the form of the holiest of holy’s….the vagina. Looks like it was an art thing. I personally think it was a work of genius…
Looks like it already sold. Sorry to all you vagina afficianadoes out there who really “needed” a pink vagina couch.

When Animals Attack
Monday, January 28th, 2008BEIJING, China (AP) — A wild elephant in southern China picked up an American tourist with its trunk and threw him in the air, causing the man to suffer from fractured ribs and stomach injuries, an official said Monday.
Jeremy Allen McGill, who teaches English in the central Chinese city of Wuhan, was found unconscious around dusk on Thursday at the “Wild Elephant Valley” nature reserve in the Xishuangbanna region of Yunnan province.
“It wasn’t clear why he was attacked,” said an official with the Xishuangbanna foreign affairs office who would give only his surname, Chen.
McGill’s abdomen and lungs were “seriously injured” and he had broken ribs, Chen said. He was hospitalized and had stitches up to 40 centimeters (15 inches) long on his stomach, said Chen, who had no details on McGill’s hometown.
I don’t know what they mean when they say “It wasn’t clear why he was attacked”. He was in “Wild Elephant Valley”…in China where safety always comes first. ‘Nuf said.
Scarlett Johansson set to Release Album
Friday, January 25th, 2008
Be still my beating heart. As rumored since last year it is now reported official that Scarlett Johansson is ready to release her first album that will contain ten Tom Wait covers and one original song!
The album will be called “Anywhere I lay my Head”, and no i did not make that title up. Although i would like to take a moment on this public forum to let Scarlett know I have somewhere you can lay your head! The next time you are looking please drop me an email. I’m here for you.
As for the details of the album I’m not sure which songs will be on the album yet, but evidently she has a singing voice. Scarlett joined Jesus & Mary Chainon stage at last summer’s Coachella (one more reason last year’s line up was better then this years). The new album was produced by David Sitek best know for his wonderful work with TV on the Radio. Also appearing on the album assisting Scarlett is Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Guitarist Nick Zimmer.
I have to admit I am interested to see how this turns out. She has seemed to team herself up with a good surrounding cast and she has some great material to work with. I have not heard her voice, but I have to think she would not embarrass herself if she could not sing. Only time will tell ! Even if this is a flop she can always fall back on her day job: Being one of the HOTTEST women on the face of the planet!

The Few..The Proud..The Salesmen
Friday, January 25th, 2008Quantum of Solace - New Bond Film Title
Thursday, January 24th, 2008
Quantum of Solace, the new title for the upcoming James Bond film, was revealed to the public a couple of days ago. This latest installment, which will once again star Daniel Craig as Bond, is set right after Casino Royal left off - Bond contemplating revenge after his betrayal by his true love, Vesper Lynd.
The studio is saying that this won’t just be a revenge flick. Evidently it will have a ton of action, but at the same time deals with the inner turmoil that bond faces. The film is set for release on Nov. 7, 2008.
A little on the title. It doesn’t seem much like any other title I have seen come from a Bond movie. With former titles like Goldfinger, Thunderball and The World is Not Enough, I think this one is trying to say “we aren’t your typical Bond film.”
I decided to break it down to try to figure out what the heck it means.
Definition: Quantum - The smallest physically realizable unit of something.
Definition: Solace - As a Verb: Give moral or emotional strength to
So from this, we can deduct that whatever revenge takes place in the film, Bond will likely get little to no emotional or moral benefit from killing, destroying or blowing things up….thus the inner turmoil. With that said, I’m sure it will be awesome to watch!
Meet the Feebles
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008Peter Jackson will always be known for his marvelous adaptation of JRR Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings Trilogy. There were many of us who idolized his film making abilities long before he took us to the shire and back again. The legend began long ago in 1989 when one muppet movie to rule them all was crafted in the fiery depths of Peter Jackson’s mind. When you look up dark comedy in the dictionary you see the movie poster for this film. You really can’t beat the tag line for the movie: Hell Hath no Fury like a Hippo with a Machine Gun.
If you have not seen Meet the Feebles it really is a must see movie for anyone who considers themselves a movie buff. This is an adult Muppet Movie. I’m talking about Vietnam flashbacks, hard core drugs, machine gun toting puppets, & Sodomy!
