LUNCH with Kathy and Lauren Battle-Clyne
Keith aka Tammie Brown
There is something NOT right about Keith, aka Tammie Brown, from RuPaul's Drag Race.
Keith has far too thick of eyebrows to decently hide under makeup, Tammie's lipstick looks like the aftermath of menstrual fellatio, and Keith/Tammie's infatuation with Joan Crawford is beyond bizarre.
My advice to Keith/Tammie: Less winking, more wire hangers.
Billy Corgan Invites Critical Fan on Stage to Talk Shit
Stereogum characterizes this exchange as a FAIL for Billy Corgan, but in my view I think he came out of this looking better than the other guy.
The story is that Smashing Pumpkins played two shows in New York. The first one was apparently quite bad, so much so that every music blog on the web just hated on Corgan in full effect. The second night, Corgan addressed the issue and invited this guy to come up and share his thoughts. I think Corgan's response is appropriate.

I don't understand this even a little
Apparently it's an ad for Hello Kitty cosmetics from MAC, but beyond that, it is utterly unknowable. I mean this.
Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" Acoustic Demo
Nick and I were talking this morning about how unimpeachably amazing Guns N' Roses were, and "November Rain" in particular. I said that I wished I could hear a stripped down acoustic version, just to see how it worked, and Nick dived into YouTube and found one. This is a rough demo, but the incredibleness of the song that was to be can be heard even in this scratchy recording.

Sunday Nights are the Best Nights
In The Know: Are Reality Shows Setting Unrealistic Standards For Skanks?
I look forward to tonight all week long, it's pretty sick.
HBO's Right America Feels Wronged
Nancy Pelosi's daughter did this documentary on how many right leaning Americans have disturbing views about America and their president. I watched this and was seriously disheartened further by the ignorance of my fellow Americans. I suggest you watch the whole thing. There's a lot of weeping racist misogynist redneck men in it, which is HILARIOUS. The absolute insanity and ignorance of some of the shit they spew however, is not hilarious.

The best part of this is, he's practicing to the Doobie Brothers.

Go West, Snails
All this talk of the Pet Shop Boys makes this timely. Time-lapse video of snails in some dude's yard. Weirdly hilarious.

What News Anchors Do During Commercial Breaks
I want to believe in my heart that this is what ALL news anchors do during commercial breaks, everywhere, but I think it's just these two.

A great V-Day song: "Let's Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits" by The Magnetic Fields and some bizarre footage of furries.

I love high fives.
As you can see a few people may have used the Sam Humphries High Five Technique. I love things like this.
THE MENU: Ruben Studdard
In summer 2004, I wrote copy for the website of a TV show called THE MENU, which provided vapid content to tweens about their "favorite" music, movies, TV shows, and stars -- and by favorite, I mean, whatever advertiser ponied up the most cash that week.
It was my job to write an article about each of them. Per popular demand, I will be reprinting some of these paragons of journalism with accompanying videos.
Ruben Studdard has done it all-- from performing with his mother in a Baptist church at age three, to igniting local clubs as a jazz singer. And, oh yeah, he was on a little television show called American Idol, where 24 million viewers crowned him as pop’s next superstar. Now signed to J Records (alongside his own idol, Luther Vandross), his first album Soulful has been blazing up the charts. But don’t expect the laid-back Velvet Teddy Bear from the 205 (that’s area code-speak for his home state of Alabama) to cool off. He’s been touring the country, dazzling audiences with his butter-smooth R&B style.
Ruben took time out of his busy schedule to kick it with THE MENU. He talked on what every American Idol hopeful needs, and gave an Idol-worthy performance of his hot new song, “What If.”

Barack & Curtis: Manhood, Power & Respect
Just watched this in the class I'm TA-ing for. Loved it. Hope you do too.
You've Got to Be Kidding Me
I voted for Barack Obama so that he would be the anti-George W. Bush. That includes not repeating the same bloopers that Bush made, no matter how minor. Next thing you know, Barack will be telling us about how he went to a PARK IN BOTSWANA.
On the other hand, you would think that after two straight presidents have bumped their heads getting onto Marine One, maybe the people who maintain the helicopter might acknowledge that there is a structural issue. They either have to fix the problem, or hope that Dennis Kucinich is the next president.
BREAKING NEWS: *stepho* pwns a piece of LDS history
Google image results for "peep stone" (the translating device Joseph Smith placed in his hat to see/read/write/make up The Book of Mormon)
I realize this isn't a video, but it is important.

Gladys Hardy for President
Here we are introduced to Gladys Hardy - an elderly woman from Austin, TX. Listen to her wise wisdom.
Truth in Advertising FAIL
For those of you who don't know, Tom Daschle had to withdraw his nomination as Secretary of Health & Human Services because of late tax payments related to the use of a car and driver. If you're like me, you're probably wondering, "What exactly does that have to do with health and/or human services?" At any rate, the whole situation makes this advertisement from Daschle's 1986 reelection campaign absurdly ironic:
"A penny saved is a penny earned... is a penny hidden from the IRS."
"A penny saved is a penny earned... is a penny hidden from the IRS."
BUSTED: Nas Song Produced by Polow Da Don Created from Software Presets
This is the second time this particular producer, Polow Da Don, has been busted for this hackery. The first time was for the Usher song "Love In This Club." You can see that below:
If you didn't know, using the presets verbatim is considered very weak shit in electronic music. The computer literally generates the song. We're in a world right now where "producers" are making fuckloads of money by not doing a whole lot of anything, so it's great that these hacks are being pwned on YouTube.
