Hottie of the Day

Andrew Jenks. A young filmmaker who currently has a series on MTV titled "World of Jenks" obviously he's easy on the eyes but watching the show you can tell he's really caring and sweet. You know the type who would say hi to you everyday in class, look you straight in the eyes, laughs at your jokes, but you will never have a chance in hell of bagging him :sigh: He's still hot though.

Jammie of the day

There really isnt much I have to say. It's just the white gay man in me loves this song. His name is Blake and he works at H&M he's an interior design major and he's a total slut when you feed him Long Island Ice Teas.

Ha!

I stumbled upon this on my late night youtube journey's. This is a parody of Kanye's "Power", and it's pretty genius. I am the power hour queen. When I do go out (which is not often) I do the super power hour, so by time your ready to leave whatever spot your at you have already been through all the phases of Stage I drunkeness: The consumption, the consumption, the consumption, the hit, the yearning to dance, sweat out the juice, drink water, drink water, go home, crash. Let's have a toast.

Teacher of the Year.

The primary word in High School is High. So why get mad made when a teacher wants to provide that word in motion to all the moody students called teenagers? This woman has been charged with dealing pot to students at Kellam High in Va Beach, after a package of ganj arrived at her house. She is currently "co-operating" with authorities to find out how the heck this package came out of nowhere and arrived at her doorstep! I find it funny that she is a "Consumer Science" teacher. Supply and demand at its finest! Read the full story here

Overnight Deep Thoughts...

-Hot fudge sundaes from McDonalds are awesome, the fact that I have to drive around to more than 1 24 hour McD's to get one (or two) is not awesome. They should have a 24 hour mechanic standby specifically for the ice cream machine. The end.
-7-11's should have drive thru's, can you imagine how great and convenient it could be!? If any one steals my idea i'll put a hex on you!
-Whatever happened to full service gas stations? The only time I see them is up north at rest stops. Those rest stops are awesome. They have Roy Rogers at those rest stops. Roy Rogers is awesome.
-When I'm at work I go outside and look up in the sky, moments like those makes me remember that we live on a planet, a mere speck in the universe.

Things That I Love: Delocated

I just recently got into this show on Adult Swim by the name of Delocated. It's in it's second season now but the show is about a man whom witnessed a murder, him and his family put under witness protection, yet they have a reality show. Sounds ridiculous right? It is and it's awesome. From the comedic mind of Jon Glaser this show will have you chuckling from beginning to end. I highly recommend. It comes on Thursday at midnight (which is technically friday but whatever) and repeats on Sunday.
PS I would post Youtube clips but Adult Swim is being lame and the vids does not have embedding capabilities,so just youtube yo self!

What!?

The picture you see above is a 'throwback' to my days at WVRU, the campus radio station located in Porterfield Hall. Porterfield is connected to Powell Hall. These two buildings are the Visual and Performing arts buildings,the place where I spent my collegiate life. Buildings that I thought I knew everything about, well I was wrong. Recently the Board of Visitors decided to strip Powell Hall of its name. Of course it caused concern for my fellow music majors who inhabit this building, but then I was directed to an article posted by my boo boo Carl. Turns out the namesake of the building was one of Virginia's leading white supremacist. WTF!? Obviously this is shocking, all the years that I spent in that building and didnt know the story of the person whom it was named after. However; despite all that, nothing including a building named after a white supremacist, can take away all of the memories, friends, songs, laughs, practice sessions, quizzes, exams, and an oral exam that brought me tears that I had in that building. Powell Hall is being stripped and now it will all be known as Porterfield, which is fine by me. Might I interject a suggestion and put my bid in for Tylia Hall or maybe Lucretia Building. No? Fine.

Deep Thoughts

So far 2010 has been about 2 things to me. No its not important things like manned natural disasters (i.e. caving coal mines and exploding oil rigs) its about homewreckers and redemptions. This year we started off with the tale tails of Tiger. He and 15 and counting extra marital affairs flooded pop culture for far too long. All these women came out of the wood work to tattle on Tigers wood work...ha. Not too long after that Jessie James had a few dames of his own. Next it was the celebrity ladies' turn in the homewrecking enclave. Note that the torrid stories of Alicia Keys and Fantasia date back to previous years but the lid really blew off this year. Alicia married Swizz Beats who was clearly married when they started dating and they have a baby on the way. Hey if you move yo feet you lose your seat, or your husband whatever. Fantasia's ordeal started last summer when she met some dude at verizon store, sure verizon can be romantic *kanye shrug*. And this summer that dude's wife filed a suit claiming she ruined the marriage by getting busy by some 3G phones, 3G phones are pretty sexy no? So in closing on this topic, ho's are good for business. Next we have some pop culture redemption. Chris Brown went upside Rihanna's head last year during Grammy weekend and needless to say the road back from that town is still uphill for him. BUT early in the summer at the BET awards during his rousing and emotional rendition of a Michael Jackson tribute the road back to good graces just got a teenie weenie bit brighter. Also exactly one year ago Kanye West got hounded for saying what everyone else was thinking at last year's MTV VMA's but it was a bit harsh and uncalled for, blame it on the Henny. However; at last night's VMA's the last scene of the show was a standing ovation and a crowd chanting his name after a ABSOLUTELY KILLER performance in my opinion. Just an hour previous Taylor Swift gave a sophmoric, pitchy, underwhelming and melodramatic performance of a song she wrote about an incident that made her a household name. After her performance was a rousing ~3,000 person golf clap. Kanye Wins. In closing on this topic, as long as you can tapdance or rap, you negroes will be otay. Those are my extremely deep thoughts.

Jammie of the Day

Broken Bells is the project of Dangermouse and James Mercer the lead singer of the Shins. I am not a Shins fan but I know people who are, its not my cup of tea. However; when Dangermouse is in the mix, consider it golden. This kid is batting a thousand in my book, he seemingly can do no wrong. The Grey album (for which he first became known), Gorillaz Demon Days, Dangerdoom (Dangermouse x MF Doom) and of course Gnarls effing Barkley. Anyways this is their single "The Ghost Inside". The video stars Christina Hendricks from Mad Men fame. I am a heterosexual female but the woman has an amazing rack! Oh and Broken Bells is nominated for Best New Artist at the VMA's, now we all know they're not going to win. But it's real cute of MTV to throw a wrench in there to make it look like they care about musical integrity, good for you!

Deftones!

So if you don't know Deftones is one of my favorite bands of all time. Last year I did a post on when I first heard the Deftones and I have been hooked ever since. They were never as 'popular' as the bands they were lumped together with during the late 90's early 00's "nu-metal" era (i.e. Korn, Limp Bizkit, Incubus etc). But I believe they are the most respected and consistent bands. Their latest album Diamond Eyes is phenomenal, definitely their best effort since White Pony. Last night I had the honor and pleasure to attend their show at the Norva (thanks to some comp tickets from my job, although I was put on a 'list' that my name wasn't on, which i assume was VIP so I had to be lumped with the peons and doshbags of the pit) And despite the sucky opening band by the name of Barroness and my feet and body aching, and this stupid b!tch who was in front of me, as my concert patna and BFF since the 9th grade Shelaine (whom gave me the white pony CD in 10th grade) told me "It'll be all worth it in the end" and man it was. They played a 2 hour set that included songs from all Deftones albums. Some of my faves of the night being "Ihabia" from Around the Fur and "Beauty School" from Diamond Eyes. Oh and Chino is adorable and amazing for he did not have in-ears and could not hear himself the whole show and still put on the performance of a lifetime...and he touched my hand! EEeeek. I really feel like I have lived out my teenage fantasies this summer. I saw Korn last month and now seeing Deftones, I kind of feel complete hmm. Oh and shout out to my cousin Rachahd whom is also a Deftones fan and told me an awesome story about when she got injured ribs from a Deftones show at the Roseland in NYC. And of course Shelainey for coming to the show with me. Alright I will now leave you with a video of "Change (In the House of Flies).

Things That I Love

If you have not watched The Big Gay Sketch Show on LOGO, you need too. It's freakin hilarious. In terms of comedy they are not wussies like the hetero folks and it's just plain funny and fresh and not stale like SNL. The best sketch on the show is their Maya Angelou "America's Treasure" where Maya reads posts from Craigslist, oh man it's great.
