Books/Google WaveMikePod/WalMart

I'm a multitasker. I got an invite to Google Wave. It's a new communication platform. What can you do with it? Hell if I know. Google made an 80 min video explaining it in May. I'm not linking to it because you are already bored by this blog, why should I steal another 80 minutes from you? It is evolving and in testing. It will be interesting to see where this goes in a year or 2.

Read another book.

I went to Wal-Mart his week. There is a new one by my house. Why I need a 3rd one near me has not been explained. But because I had not made a papal visit to this one and because my massive strength broke the door handle off my storm door earlier in the week, I thought I would buy a new one there. Alas, I could not find one, but I did see plenty of humanutty that I remembered this website that documents the sublime looking consumers who shop there, to put it nicely. I will make sure to never wear see through pants there. I'll just wear them @Target.

MikePod:
Blur: "The Great Escape"
Cream: "Those Were The Days disc 1"

Sabado Gigante

So I was killing off the last beer on Sat night when I came across Sabado Gigante. I love the humor and I love the women. Anywho, I happened on to a segment called "Miss Colita". There were several women dancing and I wondered what Colita meant. Well I Googled it and it meant booty. I just imagined the winner, the lovely Yanira
telling her parents that she was competing for Miss Colita and to wish her luck. I don't want to be the butt of jokes here, but it cracked me up.

MikePod:
Blur: "Leisure"
David Honeyboy Edwards: "Mississippi Delta Bluesman"
Snowpatrol: "Final Straw"
Throwing Muses: "House Tornado"
U2: "Wide Awake In America"
Van Halen: "Balance"

Vampire Trends


I want my Mummy! I can't wait until this vampire trend dies out. I came across this stupid link from People on Robert Parkinson's "30 Hottest Stares". I have 35 hot stares, ha ha! All his stares look the same and he looks like Robert Smith's son

Bela Lugosi's Dead!
