obama vs. american idol

Adam Lambert is getting too much mention on here in the past 48 hours, and I'm not so happy about it, but whatever.

Last night Obama addressed the nation on ABC, CBS, NBC and Univision networks.... Everywhere but FOX. They had more important things to do... The Idol elimination show with Taylor Hicks, Jamie Foxx and Natalie Cole all performing.

In case you didn't know, American Idol is still doing pretty great in the ratings-- #1. So even if you don't watch it, a lot of people do, and not airing Obama wouldn't hurt the network much.

In fact, 22 million people watched Obama on all of those networks COMBINED. 21.8 million people tuned in for AI.

That's pretty crazy. The same amount of people watched the President and a reality TV show... Just sayin'.

funny animals of the day 043009

A couple of quick hits in the animal world!

It's been a while since I've posted a funny cat video! This little gets fooled by something that I honestly thought a cat would understand. Boy do I underestimate their ditziness sometimes.



No, I don't think there's anything in the air. I think he's just freaked out by the air. Silly cat, it's supposed to make you feel better!


This guy is not fooled at all. He knows exactly what's up, and he couldn't be more excited about it. He just got a new pool!



It's his baby pool and he can hog it if he wants to! He can also run in and out and get excited as he pleased. Don't judge him.


Finally... This snake is just downright stupid. Either that, or his owners haven't fed him in forever and he thinks his only means of surviving is to eat his own kind.


Wow. I wonder how long he really is? Maybe he keeps going around and around! He'd have 2 layers of himself inside his mouth! Woah. That'd be weird, eh?!

man's best friend= bear?

When I read this, all I can think of is Travis the chimp. This is absolutely crazy.

Mr. Casey Anderson got married to actress Missi Pyle the other day and had an interesting best man... His pet GRIZZLY BEAR named Brutus.



It's 7'8'' tall, and is 7 years old. Apparently they go on walks, swim, and even fish together. And oh yeah... He sits at the dinner table, too.




What... The... H. Have people not learned anything?! This thing is almost 8 FEET TALL! Sure, he looks nice and everything, but his name is Brutus, and he's a Grizzly Bear. It's going to get bad at some point.

Do NOT.. Under any circumstances... Give this bear anti-depressants. Please and thanks.

stay in your own state, miss CA

Apparently Miss California thinks she can do anything... Wherever she wants. After somewhat apologizing for her answer on Miss USA, she's going to fight the issue more.

And I don't mean the issue of unequal rights. I mean she's fighting against gay marriage... In WASHINGTON DC!!!




Get her out. Now. As a matter of fact, instate some border protection ASAP. I'm not trying to have Miss Bimbo around the DMV as if she's important. 15 minutes are over... It wasn't even THAT serious to begin with.

ebay loves adam lambert

Everyone I talk to thinks Adam Lambert is going to win American Idol. [Even though he was in the bottom 2 last night!] I cringe when he takes the stage, but apparently some people want him close to them... So they're fighting over these items on eBay right now:










Oh my goodness. I think I just barfed in my mouth. A lot. #1- The guy hasn't even won yet. Not even made it to the Top 3! #2- Hasn't everyone seen his nasty pictures of him making out with guys ALL OVER the internet?!

The eyeliner is too much. I don't want it staring at me every time I turn the light on or check the time. I also don't want my grandmother flashing him around in a frame with roses on it. That's creepy.

Also, when I wake up, I'd rather not have him staring at me on my pillow. The only use for that would be for him to soak up my drool.

Anyways, it's all crazy. But I've saved the best for last...



"Unless your Adam Lambert." Ummm... It's YOU'RE, my friend. Nice try, though.

Happy bidding, weirdos!

watch: stand by them

When I first started watching this video, I almost turned it off right away. Then I gave it a chance, and I'm glad I did. It's emotional if you really think about it [and look past their not so beautiful looks]and it's real beautiful.

This is part of a new documentary called "Playing for Change," and shows people all over the world singing "Stand By Me" on the streets hoping for a little change in their bucket.



I don't want to get all Debbie Downer or anything, but that's amazing. End of story.

food for thought

Three fabulous things going on that have to do with food, and need to be shared. Get ready to laugh.

First of all... Canned food is a little awkward sometimes. A lot of people won't eat Spaghetti-O's, and most people won't go anywhere near Spam. So why on Earth did someone decide to have a whole chicken in a can?





Oh... My.... God. This is really real. I think I barfed in my mouth a little bit. That's too much for even me to handle, and I love anything canned or pre-packaged!


Speaking of chicken... Apparently a new Popeye's deal has the chicken just flying right out of the restaurants! Many of them are even RUNNING OUT of chicken!



Yes, everyone is going nuts over this story because of the... Mmmm.. Lack of diversity, if you will. I mean really, they couldn't find just ONE white/Asian/Hispanic person?! It's in Rochester, NY...

[And side-note... This news station needs some help. Those girls should not be anchoring together, and girl on the right has got to go.]


Finally, it's always fun to find different shapes etc. in food, clouds, whatever you can think of. Sometimes you have to use your imagination, sometimes you don't. This is one of those times you don't:


Get yo' mind out the gutter! It's just a potato. It doesn't resemble anything! I just thought I'd give a little tease, that's all.......

the swine flu is fun

Call me crazy, but I'm sick of hearing about the Swine Flu. Apparently 6 people in MD have it, now.

Here's my take, though. [Because you want to know..] There's less than 30 people in the US that "have it." They might die, but probably won't because we have medicine. There are a lot more diseases killing a lot more people, but we don't wear masks like Heidi and Spencer did on their honeymoon.



Plus... Doctors are going to freak out now. They're going to start diagnosing every flu case as Swine. Then the world will go nuts, and probably blow up. All because of some stupid little flu. Ugh.

So, thanks to Mr. Toby Knapp, I enjoy having fun with it. Yes, they have already made a game about the Swine Flu, and I played it. Multiple times. And you probably will too. You sneeze on people, infect them, and the more people who get it, the more points you win.



Your goal: Beat 3441 points. That's what I got on my first run-through. Good luck.

watch: twitter in real life

If you're a Twitterer, you'll think this is funny and be like, "Wow, I'm ridiculous." If you're not you'll say "Yeah, this is stupid. THIS is why I don't have it." [However, it's amazing, and I think you should follow me.]



So true. I think I've read or posted every single one of those... But ya know what? I ain't mad at it.

because you want to know: american idol 042909



Rat Pack Week on Idol! All I'm going to say is that Simon was right... This season is really taking each week and turning it into their own more than ever before... And I love it! It keeps the show going.

Jamie Foxx was the mentor, and we all know how I feel about him... I love him. I was hoping he'd be a little funnier on the show, but it's cool. He did a good job helping them out, I think. I wonder how Allison felt about him saying bad things about her biggest fan Miley, though..?

Only 5 left! What'd they do?
  • Kris Allen/The Way You Look Tonight: Amazing. He's my #1 now, for sure. Although now that I say that, watch him be gone. He said he doesn't vocally match up to anyone else left, but I'm just not sure that's true. I think everyone left is pretty equally great. That's never happened at this point in the season. There's always SOMEONE who shouldn't be there. Plus, Jamie said he could do a record with Kris! WOO!

  • Allison Iraheta/Someone To Watch Over Me: She just turned 17! Happy Birthday! She's incredibly talented, and as Randy said, she does have a touch of Pink to her, for sure. I don't think she can do anything bad at this point.

  • Matt Giraud/My Funny Valentine: He said he was most confident this week, and Simon and Paula agreed. Randy and Kara did not. Eh, I don't think it was his best, and it should be his ticket out... But we shall see.

  • Danny Gokey/Come Rain or Come Shine: I still really like him, and he did really great, and EVERYONE loved it. I agree. He got into it, he sounded great.. Nothing more to say.

  • Adam Lambert/Feelin' Good: He put his little rock edge onto the song... Or so he said. I think it's more of a theatrical edge, as they all pointed out. It's always so dramatic with him. I'm over his hype. Yes, he's good. But I'm over him. Yeah, I said it.

I think there's only one person who "deserves" to go:



But I wouldn't cry if he went either... Although America would:



I do still have a terrible feeling about Kris, though. Ah. He, Allison, and Danny HAVE to stay! Fingers crossed for tonight!

watch: the return of brandt

This little guy is seriously my favorite guest on Ellen. He is so hilarious and cute I can't stand it!

He's a solar system expert, loves redheads, and has a 27 year old girlfriend. Did I mention he just turned 7? His name is Brandt Bickford, he was on yesterday counting down to her 1000th show, and you need to watch this:



I wonder how Leslie feels about him talking about their relationshop in public. I wonder if Ellen will ever bring Leslie onto the show...? That'd be pretty great, too, I think.

Man I love this kid. I hope he's on again soon!

elizabethany

PS: His little Star Wars figurine thing reminds me of what my part news anchor, part rapper, part football manager BFF got recently... His own WVU action figure thing! This guy custom makes them for people. Way cool.

outdoing fmylife.com?

With everyone loving fmylife.com, it's only right that someone build off of that idea... And they have. This one could be even funnier, once people REALLY know about it.

It's textsfromlastnight.com, and people post the text messages they sent the night before that they woke up and saw and thought "oh boy." You know you've done it.. Share it with everyone.



Some of my favorites on there right now:

(530): Funny, my mom didn't get it when I said 'that's what she said' after she said 'it's so thick, it's impossible' in reference to my milkshake
[That's just a funny moment worth sharing.]

(970): Riding a fattie is like riding a scooter, its ok just not in public.

(630): I got called a slut by a bunch of girls that work at Hooters..wtf is that shit? explain that to me

(484): problem. drunk. stepbrother hitting on me again. help.


There's some pretty interesting people on there. I can just imagine some of my friends saying the same things, and I laugh really hard. If I were to post on there today, which I definitely could, I'd share:

(571): s#!% got crazy. me kt felicia won the fight. ginger b!&@# is crying. i need to go home.
(571): you wouldn't be able to pick me up from bent would you? Def jujst got in a huge girl fight.

I love interesting nights. Everyone share!

PS: Thanks to my wonderful ride home last night for sharing this website with me. ;)

tupac is alive!

Do you believe that Tupac is alive? I always said he never died... And look! TMZ has pictures of him chillin' at a bar!





Imagine that... We all thought he was hiding in some crazy random place like in Disney's Zenon movie, but nope! He's just chillin' on Bourbon St!

... Wow. You know this guy pierced his nose and does everything just so that people really do think he's Tupac. What an awesome celebrity lookalike!

celeb quick hits 042809

Here are a couple of things going on that I want to share, but don't have the time to go into in detail...

Bow Wow may have quit rapping, but he's going full force with acting... In Entourage. Also, he's looking very different these days.. Hmmm... [EZStreetShow]



Call me a hater, but I'm not a fan of Ne-Yo's girlfriend. Not based on this picture anyways. He could get a girl way more fly than her.



Lady GaGa looked mighty different in high school. Someone released some pictures and let's just say you'd never recognize her in a class picture. [OhNoTheyDidn't]




The Hills WILL continue... Minus LC. And with Audrina having her own show, while also being on The Hills. Because, ya know... That always helps a show... Losing the main girl. [InCaseYouDidn'tKnow]

That's all for now! More tomorrow, my friends! Bent Willy's is calling me, I think. It's saying "Beth.... It's Tuesday... Blackout Tuesday........"

nifty: beer for the smuts

3 things guys like: Beer, naked women, and sports.

1 thing that combines 2 of those: Beer created by Ramm ND.

When put together, the 2 cans become a woman in lingerie.



So, A) You get to look at sexy legs on your beer cans.
B) You have to buy/drink at least 2 of the cans to get the effect.
C) Your drunk goggles that are getting stronger help everything out
D) You can watch sports while drinking it if you want all 3.

The creators are absolutely genius. Should I take away the Genius of the Week Award from the light up bar? It's such a hard decision!

How about a tie?

yikes: pam anderson is a hott mess

I'm not sure what goes on in people's minds to make them think it's okay to go out in public the way Pam Anderson recently did.

I understand if you're a college student.. Or shoot.. A regular person. Go out in public lookin' like a fool. But if you're on the red carpet for a premiere, I'm going to need you to do something with yourself.





She's got the just-got-done-with-sex hair, bra showing, I-can't-smile-because-I've-messed-with-my-skin-too-much face, and camel toe. Not to mention her body looks atrocious here, too.

She's an icon. [Maybe just because of her bouncing Baywatch boobs, but she is.] She can't be doin' this.

Get help. ASAP, girl.

watch: susan boyle is everywhere

It's a little ridiculous how viral things become nowadays. One video can lead to at least a million more, and probably billions of viewers altogether. [Somehow, I need to become one of these viral videos.. Hmmm...]

Example of the day: Susan Boyle. You've seen her sing on Britain's Got Talent... But now she was on Jay Leno, South Park, and at least a dozen parodies, I'm sure.







Jay Leno is hilarious... But my favorite is definitely that last parody. Can you imagine if that's what had REALLY happened?! Oh my.. It would have been the best thing of the year.

kim wants to be blonde

Kim Kardashian pulled a swift one this weekend. She posted pictures of her with her all new hair color, which is a little bit on the blonde side.


She apparently LOVES it... Me.. not so much. Pretty color, but not for her.

The good thing is, it's a wig. The bad thing is, she's saying she really wants her hair to be dyed this color.

After thinking about this, I realized that I think her popularity is dwindling. I don't hear people saying "OMG KIM KARDASHIAN IS SO HOTT" anymore. It's all about Megan Fox. Thank goodness.

the things people spend their time doing

Maybe I'm not one to talk because of the amount of time I put into this blog, but some people really spend a LOT of time doing something that is indeed amazing at the end, but you think "Holy S. How'd you come up with that kinda time?!"

For example... This has got to be the most amazing bar I have ever seen... And probably WILL ever see. [It even beats the one in St. Pete with a running moat throughout the whole bar that makes it possible to send messages in a bottle.]



Seeeeriously. This is crazy amazing. HOW DO PEOPLE DO IT?! I just don't know! What I do know is... Genius of the Week award-- given out.

It reminds me of my friend's beer pong table that I once said was the most amazing thing ever. It's still pretty sweet.

[To really check out the final sweetness.. Go to about 2:30]



All I know is they spent a lot of time and money on that thing and yes, it was probably very worth it.

I should have been an engineer. Then I could have made the best beer pong table/bar/beer bong/flip cup table/keg stand helper all in one. Dag nabbit.

nifty: making out thanks to wood

Ohh this post could certainly be full of puns... But I'll try to refrain from it as much as possible.

What's the new fun craft for big kids? Wooden make-out dolls.

It's a kit that you assemble into a couple that kisses and wraps themselves around each other, or a drummer. [Let's be honest... What's fun about a guy bangin' on something right in front of him?] And yes, you control it. So the more you yank on them, the more they go at it.


The best part about it is that it's created by Urban Outfitters. Those people are so interesting, I swear. The randomness that they come up with....

Sugar Daddy.. Where ya at?! I kinda want one of these... Please and thanks. [Don't judge me.]
