Beck Rules.

I have always been fairly certain of the fact that Beck does indeed rule. But last night I was flipping through channels and because Bravo will air 45 minute shows in 1 hour slots, they sometimes show cool videos to eat up the time. So being completely obsessed with his new CD "The Information" (go pick it up because its seriously kick ass)I come across the video for the song Nausea. I had never seen it before and I gotta say its awesome. Its clips like this that make me want to direct videos for a living.

Have A Happy Office Christmas

This is the best show on TV. And the following is a fine example why.

Talkin' It Up On The Barry Gibb Talk Show...

OMG! I really did miss the best show of the season! Not only did I miss Justin (I think he's hot and I don't know why) but I missed the return of my boyfriend Jimmy Fallon, back to kick some ass as Barry Gibb. Its his show, and its a No nonsense show. He's not taking no crap from anybody. Dare I say this is better than the second Barry Gibb skit, but not quite as good as the first.

Justin Timberlake + SNL= F@%king HILARIOUS!!!

OMG! I can't believe it either, but Justin is FUNNY. I'm pretty sure Andy Samberg wrote this, but if you can appreciate the crap music that used to come out in the early to mid 90's with the Color Me Badd, and the Boyz II Men and other such crap, then you WILL get a kick out of this. As a matter of fact, if you DON'T think this is hilarious, then you must be dead or lacking a funny bone. Or something.

While We Are On The Subject Of Las Vegas....

I was playing around on the Official Las Vegas Tourism Website and they have a "Be Anyone In Las Vegas " Identity tool and it lets you make up a fictional identity to impress/pick up people whilst in Las Vegas. You have to pick your attributes and a name, and a home town. Once you do this, it will come up with an impressive profession, a back story as to why your in town, a printable business card with a working 1-800 number and a certificate proving your credentials. Its pretty neat for a Tourism website. Check it out. I did it and my alternate identity was Summer a smart, sassy Hip Hop producer/promoter, and I was in town trying to meet other female Hip Hop producers to start my own Hip Hop label. I worked for Non Phat Records. Too bad I hate Hip Hop. But try it for yourself.

Some Useless Info About Las Vegas...Use It At A Party And Make Your Friends Think Your Lame!

So in honor of the fact that it is 4 more days until my trip to Las Vegas, I thought I'd post some random "Fun Facts" about Las Vegas as found on the official Las Vegas Tourism website.

1. When Paul Anka first played Vegas, he was too young to be in the Casino.

2. In Nevada, it is mandatory that video slot machines pay a minimun 75% on average.

3. Vegas Vic, the enourmous neon cowboy that towers over Fremont Street, is the worlds largest mechanical neon sign.

4. 17 of the 20 biggest hotels in the U.S. are in Las Vegas.

5. Howard Hughes stayed at the Desert Inn for so long that he was asked to leave. He bought the hotel.

So there you have it. 5 completely useless facts about Las Vegas that you didn't know 2 minutes ago.

Oh What Happened To You Val Kilmer?

Oh what happened indeed. I used to have the WORST case of raging hot pants for this man. Grade 9, I saw Batman Forever 7 FREAKING TIMES in the theatre! 7!!!!! it was because he was so freaking hot then, and he was hot when he played Jim Morrison in The Doors, he was hot when he played Iceman opposite Maybe Gaybe Cruise in Top Gun, and he was hot in Heat as a bank robber, he was hot in pretty much everything. Then he backed out of the Batman sequel and started to pick shitty movies and became wierd and sketchy in interviews. Soon we stopped seeing him in movies and such except for the odd one here and there, and then a few months ago, I was flipping through channels and I stopped for a second on Vision TV (the religious channel) because I saw Val Kilmer. He was reading the Bible and giving Bible lessons in a religious infomercial. Oh how the mighty have fallen when they start doing infomercials. Look at Cher. She's a perfect example. She had an Oscar, and then she started hawking the Laurie Davis Hair Care System and now look. But there is hope for Val Kilmer. I saw him 2 weeks ago on Jimmy Kimmel, and he was normal and even funny. He was there to promote his new movie with Denzel Washington. I don't remember what its called, but its one I might actually go and see. So let's all hope this means that the Val Kilmer of the late 80's to early 90's comes back, and religious infomercial Val is gone for good.

Will It Blend Marbles???

This is quite possibly the coolest, most powerful blender in the history of the universe. Not only will it shred some balls, but watch..nay, MARVEL at its awesome power as it reduces 50 marbles to a mere pile of dust. I want one, but its like $400.00. Plus, it should also be singled out for the shitty production value and the terrible background music. Plus the host Tom Dickson is SOOO BLAND. There is no other word to describe him other than bland. Even his excited face at the beginning where he is supposed to be getting the viewer pumped up falls far short of energetic. Its kind of like he's got a guy standing behind the camera with a grenade and the guy with the grenade is telling him to look excited or he's gonna drop the grenade and Tom Dickson is trying to look excited on the outside, but on the inside he feels like he's gonna crap his pants.

Will It Blend? Part One

Wow...so just surfing the internet, I came across this gem. Its this crazy blender that will shred pretty much anything you put into it. I swear everytime I see that Coke can go in the blender I lose it. Also please note the cheesey production values, and the shitty theme music. With my luck, I'll spend $20,000 on my film education and end up producing crap like this. But its still cool to watch. More to follow tomorrow from work.

Wierd Al...Still Givin' Er

Have a look at the above video. Its Wierd Al's latest and its awesome. Seriously, check out Donny Osmond dancing like a freak about half way through the video. It kills me everytime. Plus, how cool is it that Wierd Al has been making kick ass parodies since 1979?! Viva La Al!!!!
