Eye Candy 4/5

Female Hottie: Venus Williams

This week's female hottie may have just lost to her little sister in the title match at Wimbledon, but that doesn't decrease her hot factor. Tall, muscular, athletic...need I say more?

Male Hottie: Josh Duhamel

Believe it or not, there are other actors in the Transformer movies that Shia Lebeouf and Megan Fox, like Josh Duhamel, here. I don't know much else about him, other than he's married to Fergie and was on that show Las Vegas.

Random Hottie from a movie or TV show seen this week: Daphne Zuniga

I'm actually surprised Daphne isn't a much more popular actress. She's a total hottie, and is very talented to boot. She's had roles in Melrose Place, Nip/Tuck, One Tree Hill , and earns this spot with her appearance in the movie Spaceballs.

MILF: Naomi Watts

Look at this woman. Would you believe she is a mother of 2 boys? I know I can't. Naomi has had roles in a variety of film, and even has an Academy Award nomination on her resume. Let's keep an eye out for more of her hotness, shall we?

Classic/Retro Hottie: Dawn Wells

To this day, there is still an ongoing debate as to who is hotter Ginger, or Mary Ann. Well, here's Mary Ann, Dawn Wells. At 70 years old, she's still mostly known for that role, but she did do a few other roles, but as you can see, she'll always be remembered as Mary Ann.











**Side Note** somehow I foolishly deleted last week's eye candy post, so here they are again with out the spiel.







































Female Hottie: Rachael Leigh Cook

Male Hottie: Matt Damon
Random Hottie from a movie or TV show seen this week: Isabel Lucas
MILF: Courtney Thorne-Smith
Classic/Retro Hottie: Rita Moreno

Mommy's guilt trip

So, I called the 'rents this afternoon. The usual call. Pleasantries, how are things going. Asking if I'd been keeping up with the Michael Jackson stuff, blah, blah,blah. Then I get the guilt trip.

Mothers are known for guilt tripping heir kids, and usually I manage to get away from these, but with my sister going for a visit this holiday weekend, I guess she figured it was time to lay the guilt on me, especially since I haven't been back for awhile (a point she made sure to mention more than a few times).

Now, I'm no one to run visit on holidays. She knows that. I'm of the belief that it should be no different to visit on December 25th than June 25th, y'know? Plus, I hate driving through holiday traffic.

If I was able to get away sometime this summer, I would go, but that just doesn't look like it's gonna happen until until Labor Day.

To add to the guilt, she just happened to conveniently bring up the fact that my little brother is 17 and looking for a job and that it would be nice if I could send him a couple dollars. Nothing wrong with that...it's just the way she snuck it in there....more guilt.

Oh well, I guess it happens, right?

Anyone have any idea where a 17 yr old autistic boy can work? No one seems to want to hire him.

Leave him alone

So, in case you haven't bothered to read some of my earlier posts, or have been living under a rock for the past few days, Michael Jackson died last week.

I'm hoping that he has gone on to a better place. His music and memory will live on forever.

However, some people feel the need to bring up the negative parts of his life. They can't just leave him be.

I was reading one blogger who said they didn't understand how the nation could be so "ga-ga for a child molester". On Youtube, it appears as if there are people so pissed that Michael is getting such positive coverage they went to each and every single MJ video and posted disparaging remarks, some obscene and laden with expletives. Then we have Debbie Rowe, who is the mother of two of Michael's children saying she doesn't want anything to do with them and is making allegation that he is not their father. Let's not mention his father Joe, who isn't exactly known for being a pillar of caring towards his son, plugging his new record label in an interview last night.

Now, I'll go one record and say that the coverage is getting to be a bit much now, but there is no need to defame the man.

To those out there that don't think/understand how people can feel sorry for a "child molester", I say to you prove that he molested those children. I want physical proof. Until you can provide me with that, he is innocent. You're entitled to your opinions, but why must you feel the need to speak ill of the dead?

As far as Debbie Rowe and Joe Jackson, they have officially replaced the awful mess that is Speidi on my @#@#list, which is pretty bad.

Michael just wanted to be left alone for most of his life, so why is it people keep wanting to drag his name through the dirt for their own selfish means? Please, leave him alone and let him R.I.P. He doesn't deserve the treatment the media has been giving him,specifically CNN and the ones that would rather focus on the negative aspects of his life rather than the impact and joy he and his music brought billions of people over the years.

When they can pull off a feat equal to that, then they can think about saying his name, if they're worthy.

The way his death has turned into a circus is just disgusting.

People need to chill out pt. 2

A few days ago I posted about the overreaction to the characters of Mudflap and Skids in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. As promised, I said I would give an educated opinion to the characters and determine if this is true overreaction after seeing the film myself.

Well, I saw the movie Saturday, and came to this conclusion. PEOPLE NEED TO CHILL OUT!!!! That's right, there is nothing overtly offensive about these characters. They are clearly there for comic relief and are not trying to be some sort of racial stereotype.

Anyone that gets offended by this, or thinks they are offensive needs to take a look at themselves and ask why it is they are offended and if they would have been offended before these days of extreme political correctness.

While I wasn't offended, I did have some issues. First, there was no point to the gold tooth. The characters bordered on annoying, but no more than Spongebob (ironically, one of them is voiced by the same guy that gives Spongebob his voice).

A big stink was raised about them not being able to read. This was blown so far out of proportion it blows my mind. I was thinking they were given a book or something and it turns out they can't read, but it turns out they can't read ancient Transformer hieroglyphics. I wonder if those that made such big deal out of this can read ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. It's the same idea.

So, as expected, it is overreaction to these two characters. There is nothing offensive about them.

What happened to the days when people had sense of humor about things?
