Let's All Go to the Movies




That boxer dood is pretty damn hot, AND he has enthusiastic sex with the haggard, so that's a plus in my book. The world needs more insanely attractive givers.

and now the coup de grace:



(Edgar Wright directed films) Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are two of the funniest movies of all time, especially Hot Fuzz. This looks fucking RAD. I'm pretty surprised that Universal is putting so much money and hype into it- But they're treating it like a summertime flagship release! I actually think it should do extremely well. it looks really good, stylized in a clever way, smart and funny, especially for something so clearly adolescent.

The tagline for Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World is "An Epic of Epic Epicness." how fucking great is that? Very excited about this one, for realsies.

Back In the Day



i don't know why but the last couple weeks i've been thinking about my old military school friends. it's pretty rare for me to try to look for people who aren't in my life anymore, but i've been doing it anyway. Novelli and Huda (you should be able to tell which is which by their names) were like my brothers for a couple of years, and yet at this point we haven't spoken for over a decade now, but i guess that's not that insane- i haven't talked to my actual brother more than a handful of times since 1996, not to be maudlin or anything... it's just a fact.

Novelli looks sad to me, which is kind of strange because he was always such a goof.

Huda looks happy enough, though.

it really is all in the eyes, huh? That doesn't ALWAYS work, though, because some people know how to smile with their eyes even if they aren't feeling it, but if they're NOT smiling with their eyes, then that's that. Huda's eyes smile*, and Novelli's smile is all mouth.

*in all fairness, Huda IS standing next to an open bar.

B.O.B covers MGMT's 'Kids'




and it is good to the last fucking drop. B.O.B makes me excited the same way Outkast did ten years ago, except with much less focus and unique creative vision... B.O.B's album is sort of a collection of singles with a bunch of guest stars, but you have to appreciate his stylistic range. it's good the way that N.A.S.A's album was good.

Heart Grow Fonder


So tomorrow's my last final, and then i'm off to house sit for my aunt in Chandler. Her computer is almost ten years old, and can barely turn on, so it's unlikely that i'll be blogging for the next ten or eleven days. When i get back to Tucson, i'll be packing up to move house by June 1st, so i'm not sure how much i'll be blogging when i get back, either... you might not hear from me until next month. Not that you would have noticed if i hadn't mentioned it, lol.

If for some reason you MISS ME, feel free to lurk my somehow MORE insipid twitter presence. i can do that from my phone.

Craig Ferguson's Leather Boy Raffle


Ten Days of Betty: 4, 3, 2 and 1 Days Left













Here's a mishmash of Betty White stuff, old and new. i love BW, but holy fucking christ, i am kind of tired of writing about her.


Still, don't forget to watch SNL's Mother's Day episode tonight with Betty White (and musical guest Jay-Z... I hope he does 99 Problems. that's my ringtone, lol), Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Maya Rudolph and others... it's going to be an extravaganza!

and now back to our regularly scheduled programming here on SLWMAC.

Laos Is Fierce


Behold: Laotian Snake Whiskey. Yes, that's a cobra with a scorpion tail clenched betwixt it's jaws.

Twitter really has given me good stuff at a pretty fast clip.

Taken from the twitter account of skeleton robot sidekick building snake whiskey drinking Grant Imahara. He's cute as hell anyway, but you factor in the robot skeleton building and the snake whiskey drinking, and you have a recipe for stealing my heart.

I Was Wrong



Twitter is Awesome. I mean, it's really stupid too, but it's got this duality that saves it.

Behold: Douglas Coupland linked to this article about a dude who travels the world fixing crumbling landmarks and architectural wonders with LEGO. that's fucking cool, i don't care who you are.

also, i'm still finding my twittervoice, but feel free to follow me HERE.

Yes, Really.



i have unicorn key holder thingies where the lock picking part of the key sticks out of the unicorn's head instead of a horn. same vein, different hole.

Ten Days of Betty: 5 Days Left









These are a few of my favorite things: Craig Ferguson + Betty White = Yay!

Betty White has always been pretty popular, but the ZEITGEIST she has been riding the last two or three years i think probably has a significant something to do with Craig Ferguson having her on his show every month or two like clockwork. Craig's smart- he regularly pays homage to Late Night Tv's rich history. BW was, as we've seen already on the Ten Days of Betty, a Tonight Show with Johnny Carson staple, and as previously mentioned on SLWMAC, Craig recently did a tribute episode in honor of Tom Snyder when he spent an entire episode interviewing British actor Stephen Fry. Anyway, this is funny shit. A good formula works forever.

Ten Days of Betty: 6 Days Left




Betty Vs. Ryan on the set of the proposal.

"When Betty White asks you to get coffee, you get her a fucking cup of coffee."

words to live by, ladies and gentlemen.

'Iron Man 2' Buzz Heats Up Over Rumors Gwyneth Paltrow Gets Punched In Face

This is about a million times better than buying the world a Coke.

Stolen from Jason.

ps, i TRIED to get a picture of Gwyneth either bleeding from the face or at LEAST crying, but her on crutches was the best i could do :(

Ten Days of Betty: 7 Days Left








Today's first "catch up" Betty White offering (1 of 3) is the godawful Lake Placid, pared down to a much more tolerable length of about 6 or 7 minutes- featuring only the parts with Betty White in them. This is a fun one to watch, because BW's telling cops to suck her cock and making proclamations about how she wants them to be eaten alive. yay!

Ten Days of Betty...

Um, i'm behind on them, obviously. Prepare for a triple dose tomorrow!
