Thank you Joel!!!!

No one could escape Speidi in the jungle - it was everywhere!!! And though they never got lost or eaten (as I had hoped!) this scenario from The Soup is the next best thing.

Bad Girl in W Mag

This post is a two fold gratuitous just-because kind of thing.

1. Because I really love Ginnifer Goodwin as an actress (I loved her the most of all the characters in Mona Lisa Smile)
2. & because these photos are HOT!!!

While at my hair stylist's last week I noticed this hot W magazine cover and then when I took a good look I realized it was Ginnifer.

Here is the article

I got so wrapped up in the bad girl photo spread that I almost didn't get to the actual article....

Whether you choose to read up about her or not, do enjoy the few photos I was able to find online....

Enjoy.

Are we surprised?

I'm not remotely surprised.

Adam Lambert is officially coming out..... via this weeks issue of Rolling Stones.

read article here

Considering that there were many photos on the web of Adam sucking face with other men, I'm surprised that there has even been any degree of controversy around this at all.

Well, good for Adam!

Now I'm just waiting to hear about his first album, cause I think it'll be interesting to see what style of music he'll be embodying.

Please leave them there!

I will not be watching I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! ~ not even if you paid me…. I’ve got much better things to do with my time.

I am however hoping for a true life tragedy that would involve Spencer Pratt and “His Creepy Flesh-Colored Beard”

while they are dropped into the jungle for (what some ridiculous NBC Rep calls) the ‘ultimate Swiss Family Robinson’ experience….

In April when it was reported on Pop Sugar that Spencer was definitely interested in pursuing a political career I started secretly praying for a tragic accident to happen to this fool.

"Don't know if I'll be getting elected any time in the next century or so, but definitely going after mayor of L.A. and at least governor," he tells celebrity blog Pop Sugar. "I'll probably stop at Governor."

And now is the opportunity!

Costa Rica is home to approximately 150 species of amphibians and more than 200 species of reptiles, half of them snakes.

If they are really going to be dropped into the Costa Rica jungle there must be a predatory animal that will think Pratt is snack worthy, or at least not know better .

PS Don't fret, Heidi will survive without Spencer & she'll make for a very attractive widow

Power of the Geek-T

Last summer at Comic Con I scored a few T-shirts. One of the shirts was the below Homer Simpson in Japanese t-shirt:

For me t-shirts are saved for hanging out at home, doing my gardening and gym workouts. So that's what I was off to do last week when I donned this t-shirt, I was off to the gym after work. But before getting to the gym I made a quick stop at the local Nob Hill for a couple things.

Quick Note: my work is right next to the Global Headquarters for Electronic Arts. As I drove across the street to the grocery store I noticed a car full of gamer boys behind me, they too were headed to Nob Hill, probably for dinner or a snack ~ if you know a Professional Gamer or IT Engineer you know the kind of weird hours they keep....

Anyhoo, on my way out of my car and into the store one of they guys from the other car gets my attention and tells me that he thinks my Geek-T is really cool, and proceeds to ‘Superman style’ unzip his members-only-looking jacket to point out his SpiderPig t-shirt! As if we had bonded via t-shirt!

LOL & OMG – all at once!

I walk to and from that grocery store all the time without any notice for the most part but with the power of the Geek-T it's an overwhelming draw for the inner geek, clearly.


I have another t-shirt from Comic Con two years ago that gets a fun response when I wear it to the gym. The shirt has Skeletor on the front, and that t-shirt usually gets a few “cool” comments but nothing to the degree of the Uber Geek-T that I was sporting.

At the gym I went mostly unnoticed with the t-shirt which was fine by me since I try to get in there and out as quickly as possible. However, a quick stop at Trader Joe’s before getting home resulted in another Geek-T experience but at least this time it was with the guy checking out my purchases not some random walkby. He excitedly asked me where I got the Geek-T and if I knew what it said…. In the brief minutes it took to ring up my couple things he told me that there had been a Simpson’s episode where they were in Japan and that the Geek-T must be based on that. I told him I hadn't seen that and maybe I'd look it up (which of course I haven't cause really who cares...?)

I'm not sure if I have the strength to be responsible for this much Geek-T Power.... I may need to hold off on wearing it a lot and just save it for special occasions. I think that "One Geek-T to Rule Them All" will be my new theme when I wear the Geek-T out in public next time.

Metal Heads Converge

In San Carlos, CA of all places.....

Saturday night out with the girls was the plan. Head out a bit early to get a table and watch some local cover band sing who knows what and have a good time having drinks and chatting it up with men.

Except when we arrived we found there was very little parking which seemed unusual. Once we found parking you could hear the Metallica song loud and clear as we crossed the street to the entrance. *You may remember that I'm a Metallica fan and was excited about the CD they released back in August so I was intrigued and excited to see what was going on inside*

Once inside we saw every single metal head in the Bay Area was at this bar. Seriously! Who knew that there was going to an Annual Metal Tribute Concert that night!?!??

They started at 2pm, there were two stages, one inside and one outside on the patio, Jagermeister girls were selling cheep shots and handing out glowing button things... Unbelievable how many metal heads were gathered in one place. The male to female ratio was 10 guys to every gal and everyone was pretty much friendly and non-pretentious, which was refreshing. I would have loved to see the Chili Pepper tribute band, but they were on before we got there. We caught the Metallica, Tesla, Megadeath and Ozzy / Iron Maiden tribute bands. The bands were really good, we enjoyed the music & the scenery ~ especially since there were so many guys there.

To give you a little peek at the scenery we experienced (remember this was a tribute concert so I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised to see guys physically emulating / in tribute of their idols):

I swear that Joey Ramone was there.

And there was a guy that was completely living the Mark Wahlberg Rock Star look. There was also dude that completely looked like Slash minus the top hat (which made me remember that Slash is the guest mentor on this weeks ‘Rock Week’ on American Idol – yes I’ve become hooked into AI this season and while I don’t think Adam Lambert will win it’ll probably be in his best interest to be 2nd or 3rd)
Some of the other looks on display was a very goth metal head look, ala Hot Topic, that was an interesting compilation of the two themes… To this very day I thank Metallica for making it okay to be a metal head with short hair, because sometimes that long stringy look is just not attractive!

While the music was good, and the male scenery was good, or at least entertaining, I was really surprised to find that there are a lot of short metal head dudes. Really. Who knew... I knew it was a shorter than normal crowd when I could stand up back at the bar and actually see the band over the head of the crowd, that’s hardly ever the case since I’m only 5’5”. HA HA HA!!! *Remember hot and short is better than tall and fugly*

I'm thinking that I'll jot this annual event down for my 2010 calendar..... ya never know.
