Lady GaGa's Bad Romance: Potential Illuminati?

2009-12-15T17:58:00.000-08:00

Let me start off by saying that this is in no offense to anyone. I listen to Rihanna, Jay Z., Beyonce, Lady GaGa etc. Although I’m not fully convinced that major artists of the music industry are part of the Illuminati, it’s still quite interesting to venture upon both sides.

Side 1: The Illuminati is non existent and a bunch of crap.

Side 2: It exists. And Lady Gaga is a member.

Side 2 seems a little more intereseting to be discussing right now.)
What is the Illuminati? The illuminati is believed to be a cult, or a group of people, of a secret society focused on the thrive of money and power. The allegedly control all world affairs and are said to have some satanic correlation.

Searching the net, I’ve found some interesting relations, symbols, and words that make a lot of sense in relation to the illuminati. Today I’ll speak on Lady Gaga’s new video: Bad Romance. (One of my favorites.)

Bad romance is mix of deep symbolism. Pay attention closely and you can find the religious imagery.
At the beginning of the video, she is deprived of her senses. - Sensory deprivation is a torture technique used on prisoners or mind controlled slaves in order to “break” them and to facilitate their reeducation.

Gaga then bathes herself and is then roughly handled by two women. She fights them but she then apparently accepts her faith and even raises her hands in praise.

Gaga is then undressed and forced to perform in front of a bunch of men. Those mafioso can represent the Illuminati, the dark force ruling the music industry.

Gaga is then required to fulfill her duties as a sex slave by…you’ve guessed it… having sex with the winning bidder. So she proceeds into a very symbolic room.

Her hands are strategically placed under the horned heads. Immediately after, a fire ignites the room.

On each side of the bed are gazelle heads, who symbolically refer to Baphomet, the horned idol of Western occultism.That being said, the presence of those horned heads in that room is not merely decorative, it is very symbolic.

Gaga is “offering herself” at the altar of Baphomet in order to become initiated and accepted inside the Order. She does not want “to be friends” with the music industry, she wants to be an insider

The virginal white garments she wore during most of the video are replaced by bloody red, a visual confirmation of the fact that she is now initiated and accepted as an insider.

The codes of the music industry seem to be used over and over again, in videos, award shows and photo shoots.

Gaga then makes her trademark “Eye in the triangle” hand gesture after her initiation to make it clear who owns her now…the Illuminati.

Notice how everything is burnt except the two gazelle heads. The real “intercourse” happened between Gaga and Baphomet. The guy was a tool, a middle-man who was sacrificed in the process of Gaga’s initiation.

Other Sybolism:
The “Rah-rah” chant at the beginning of the song. Sun worship has always been at the center of occult mysteries as it is considered to be the ultimate representation of God.

The word “Monster” with a Christian cross underneath it creates a not-so-subliminal unconscious association

A cross placed right on her “privates”. No matter what religion you are, you know this is not a sign or respect

In this choreography, Gaga does what looks like the sign of the cross but her hand gesture describes a triangle instead (classic phallic symbol).

In some scenes, Gaga has some reptilian features, especially when you focus on the spine.

There is a great resemblance with the monster in this next painting.

So guys… there you have it, one interpretation of the Bad Romance music video. This could all just be a bunch of crap with too much analysis. Or could it be something more?

What do you think?

People are Gay. Get Over it Already!

2009-12-15T17:45:00.000-08:00

I warn you in advance that the image below is extremely gruesome. The bodies of gays lying on the streets of Iraq are shown below.

There are Muslims that find it acceptable to brutally murder homosexual men because of their sexuality. Who in their right minds would find homosexuality wrong but murder acceptable? How ignorant can you be! In my opinion, hatred of a race or kind of people only comes from fear. These men fear their own thoughts and feelings about other men so… they decide to kill the ones that are most like them. That’s my opinion.

One man stated, “Animals deserve more pity than the dirty people who practice such sexual depraved acts,” he told the Observer. “We make sure they know why they are being held and give them the chance to ask God’s forgiveness before they are killed.”

What kind of sense does that make? God DOES NOT want you to kill his children. No matter what dumb reasons a person may have, it is not their job to take lives. God does not need their help. People are so hypocritical. They find it reasonable to kill in God’s name? It makes no sense.

If you don’t like a certain type of people, just stay away from them. Do people actually think that gay people just wake up one day and decide to be “gay”!? Do people actually think that homosexual people want to choose to be gay just to be ridiculed, put down, and sometimes hurt and even murdered? No! How about you people stop being so ignorant and realize that some don’t have a choice. Stop trying to play God’s role and stop trying to tell people who will be going to hell. Have you ever been? Have you spoken with the people who have been? Most likely, the answer is no.

Get over it already. It’s not always black and white. You will encounter people in the world that aren’t like you. You don’t have to understand. It’s actually none of your business. Live YOUR life and stop trying to live everyone else’s!

If a person really accepts who they are and love themselves then they won’t have to run around hating anyone else. Think about that.

People love to say that God hates gay people. They say that he says it in the bible. Doesn’t the bible also say thou shall not murder, commit adultery, steal, or bear false witness against your neighbor. But people do it anyway. And think it’s okay just to speak on someone else’s sins. No sin is worse than the other. So while you’re sitting there worrying about someone’s sexuality, take time to worry about YOUR OWN faults. I’m still waiting for someone to show me in the bible where it says that being Gay is sinful anyway.

Hate is a waste of time. I’m attracted to the opposite sex but it’s not my place to fault those who aren’t. The hate crimes need to stop. They’re only a way for people that need to feel better about themselves, have reasons to do so.

People are gay. Get over it.

Tips for the Ultimate Friendship:
(Another Journalism Assignment)

Friendship is just a part of life's fabric for most humans, so much so we tend to take them for granted. They're just there; that person we confide in, support and are supported by. The importance of these relationships can be lost in their norm status. But they can prove more valuable than family and partners over the course of a lifetime and are worth the work to keep them healthy and alive.

10 Tips on Keeping a Healthy and Happy Friendship:

Admit it & Apologize. (It's never a bad thing to admit that you're wrong.)
Keep it Honest. (What better trust will a friendship have than friends that are always honest with eachother?)
Don't take Advantage. (Just because your best friend is willing to do anything for you, doesn't mean that you should ask for EVERYTHING. Don't get greedy. You could actually lose them one day.)
Let them Make their Own Decisions. (There's nothing worse than a bossy friend.)
Keep Your Promises. (This keeps the trust factor up. They'll always have someone to rely on.)
Have fun. (Self explanatory. Keep the friendship exciting and full of excitement.)
Remain in Contact. (Staying in touch helps build a bond, no matter how far away they are.
Maintain Healthy Competion. (This will have both of your motivated. But don't take the competing to the point that it gets too serious.)
Be Supportive. (Let your friend know that they're great and can accomplish anything they set their heart to. Supposrt their goals and dreams.)
Focus on the Positive. (This leaves you with nothing bad to say.

"Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down."

Social Networking: Beware

2009-11-22T15:24:00.000-08:00

When should we take social networking seriously?

Jesus take the wheel. Two Clayton County teachers -- who say they are romantically involved with the same man -- are on administrative leave after getting into a physical fight over a love letter posted on Facebook. The teachers were arrested on Monday after a fight resulting from the truth that both women were seeing the same man. One woman reported to the police that she found another woman's romantic letter to her "baby daddy" on facebook. The fight later moved from facebook to the middle school halls.

And in other news, I'm sure some of you had heard about the guy being arrested after checking his Facebook during a robbery. A 19-year-old Pennsylvania man was arraigned earlier this week on a charge of felony daytime robbery. How did police catch him? Simple: the burglar left a trail, by way of checking his Facebook account before leaving the house with two diamond rings and forgetting to log out. Facebook addiction?

Moral of the story? Social Networking has gone a little bit too far. Fights have erupted over facebook, myspace, and the well known twitter. Relationships ruined... friendships ended... drama, drama, and more drama. What happened to our social network's true purposes? To interact and get in touch with those long lost friends. we need a few SN laws because this is starting to be a problem. Believe it or not, but people are addicted. Alot of us can't even have a normal day without logging on to facebook. So what's up with that?

Precious: Tai's Movie Review

2009-11-07T19:33:00.000-08:00

So... I just came from seeing the movie. It was great.

The message is powerful. I think that's what gets all the theaters sold out of this movie so early in the day. (I went and watched before my eyes as three different showtimes got sold out).

I don't plan on spoiling the movie but I would like to say that I commend the creators for the original story line and realistic scenarios. Some can relate to rape, abuse, incest, teenage pregnancy, and illiteracy. Even if you can't I'm sure you will find some deep emotional relation and you feel and vibe with Precious' story. You'll laugh, cry, and want to see the movie all over again.

Tai State of Mind

2009-11-04T19:15:00.000-08:00

Another Journalism Assignment...

Every morning is like every morning, but so very different from every other morning. Routinely when I wake every morning, my room looks the same(a junky mess as Eddie always says),but within the confinement of my room there is a day ahead that I dont quite know what it may bring.
I'm usually awaken by my alarm or a "Morning beautiful, how did you sleep" text from Eddie...
And that is the only part I enjoy as being routine. As apart of who I am,I can't stand routine. Waking up at the same time every day, going to class at the same time everyday, coming home at the same time everyday... it all irks me. I'm a person that enjoys surprise and the unpredictable days to come.
A day in the life of me would be hard to understand. You see, my state of mind is complex. Filled with day dreaming, roleplaying, and deep interest in the most random things... following my daily life would leave you with high confusion.
I live life to the fullest. Even though you may not be able to follow my reasons and ways... there is a purpose.

First Lady Michelle Obama & Glamour Magazine

Michelle Obama covers the November issue of Glamour and she gave some great dating advice.

“Cute’s good. But cute only lasts for so long, and then it’s, Who are you as a person? Don’t look at the bank book or the title. Look at the heart. Look at the soul. When you’re dating a man, you should always feel good. … You shouldn’t be in a relationship with somebody who doesn’t make you completely happy and make you feel whole.”

About Teen Suicide

2009-10-22T14:34:00.000-07:00

What do you live for? I live for the future. I see a daughter, a husband, and a great career. I live to make my mother happy. I live to see the faces of my friends and boyfriend everyday. I live to sing, dance, create. I live to travel the world. I live for the idea that I'll someday make a huge change in the world.

There are certain things that we all live for. But some hold on to that one certain thing that keep them going. Whether it be their little brother that needs guidance, their love for their puppy that they feel they need to take of, or their love for mathematics... Everyone lives for something.

So what happens when that one thing that you thought you couldn't live without, that one thing that you lived for, is suddenly taken away from you. It's human nature to carry on until you can't anymore. But it's harder for some. They find no reasons to push forward. They don't have that puppy, that little brother, that vision of the future. They feel that their left with absolutely nothing. They feel that this pain can only be eased in the result of their death.

We can't judge a suicidal person and say "oh they're dumb and need to get over it." I call this ignorance. Depression is a disease.

The Facts:Suicide is the third-leading cause of death for 15- to 24-year-olds.
Nearly 5,000 teenagers commit suicide each year.
White males have the highest increase in suicide.
The ratio of male to female suicides is four to one; however, young women attempt suicide four times more frequently.

What should you do?

-If someone you know brings up the subject of suicide, take them seriously.
-Reassure them that they have someone to turn to, a friend to help them.
-Don’t lecture about the reasons a person has to live, listen to them.
-Contact someone for help. Depressive disorders respond well to psychotherapy treatments or the appropriate medications.

Most teens interviewed after making a suicide attempt say that they did it because they were trying to escape from a situation that seemed impossible to deal with or to get relief from really bad thoughts or feelings.

Don't judge. Just help.

Chicago HighScool: 115 Girls Preganant

2009-10-19T16:07:00.000-07:00

CBS 2 News did a report on the 115 girls (either pregnant or already mothers) out of 800 total girls at Paul Robeson Highschool in Chicago, Ill (My Hometown). One in eight of their students are pregnant.

My opinion: WTF. What ever happened to condoms? If you see a large population of your friends knocked up, wouldn't that turn you away from having unsafe sex? But of course who am I to say. lol

Whats your opinion?

Model Does Black Face for French Vogue

2009-10-13T19:09:00.000-07:00

French Vogue did a shoot with Dutch model Lara Stone. She portrayed a woman of color. I wonder why they just didn't use a REAL black model.

Painting white people black for the entertainment of other white people is offensive in ways that stand entirely apart from cultural context. France and Australia may not have the United States’ particular history of minstrel shows as a form of popular entertainment going back to the 19th century, but something about the act of portraying a white woman as black ought to sound an alarm, somewhere.

Finally!!!!!!!!. Mattel announced today their introduction of new Black Barbie dolls. The new dolls have fuller lips, a wider nose, more distinct cheekbones and curlier hair.

Each doll features its own unique personality and style and reflects one of three various skin tones. The line also features a mentoring theme and each doll comes with her little sister. The big and little doll is set to inspire mentoring in the young girls who play with them.

I give them an A for effort! lol. Of course our black people will find something negative to point out about it. (no offense)

It Be Like That Sometimes

2009-09-28T17:01:00.000-07:00

Words of Wisdom: Some of us tend to be helpful and caring, individuals that want to see the one's we love succeed. And we do everything in our power to make that happen.

Now, that's okay but catch yourself if you realize that you're so intent on helping the one's you love that you forget about helping yourself. Remember your dreams as well. Work hard for what you want.

There may come a time when you have done everything you could to help a person get somewhere but you are still... nowhere. No matter what they may do to benefit you in the future, what have you actually done for yourself? Don't you deserve equal happiness?

The human mind doesn't appreciate not being appreciated.

Think about it =].

Manswers: Random!

2009-09-16T16:34:00.000-07:00

Joke of the Day:
A group of friends get together every Friday after work for a drink. One Friday, Jeff showed up late, sat down at the bar, and kicked back his entire first beer in one gulp. He then turned to his pal Bob and said: "Times are getting tough, my friend. Earlier today my wife told me she's going to cut me back to only two times a week. I can't believe it!"
"You think you've got it bad?" Bob retorted: "She's cut some of us guys out altogether!"

Sex Tip of the Day:
(Remember: Always have safe sex! =])

They call it screwing for good reason -- meaning circular moves, not hammering straight in.

Exercise Tip of the Day:
Super slow sets usually take about 14 to 15 seconds to perform 4 to 6 repetitions. This means that you will move through the contraction portion (concentric) for 10 of those seconds, and the remaining 4 to 5 seconds will consist of the relaxation movement (eccentric).

This is very different from the standard bodybuilding protocol in which you perform 8 to 12 repetitions and move through the concentric portion for 2 seconds, followed by a1-second pause at the top of the movement and a 4-second lowering phase.

Manswers: Why she didn't return your call...

2009-09-11T13:27:00.000-07:00

Why She Didn't Return Your Call

Giving you her number was an easy exit.(She only agreed to give you her number so she could the h*ll away from you and enjoy the rest of her night)

She discovered something about you that put her off.(She told her friends about you and their input was horrible. Basically, she changed her mind)

There’s another guy on the scene. (She gave you her number to make her ex jealous. Or she just simply found someone else and felt no need to talk to you.)

That fourth tequila made her talk the talk. (She was so drunk that she didn't even really realize what she was doing.

So there you go guys. A little harsh but true. Just keep it moving and you'll be fine =]

2009-09-09T16:30:00.000-07:00

Mary covers the new October issue of Essence Magazine and talks about Diddy, the pressure from new artists and not being able to perform with former womanizer K-Ci.

ESSENCE: I always wondered why, and I’m not hating on Faith Evans (I love her too), but were you to be the First Lady of Bad Boy?

MARY J. BLIGE: If I wasn’t signed to MCA, it could have been me, which I believe Puff would have wanted. But I understand Puff is a businessman, so he had to go get his First Lady, which I understand. It took me a couple of years to understand, but you know, after a while I was like, “Oh, okay. He had to do that,” because he didn’t have a female artist over there.

ESSENCE: Will you ever sing “I Don’t Want to Do Anything Else” [her duet with Jodeci's K-Ci] live again?

MARY J. BLIGE: No. I mean, if I sing it with someone else, yes.

ESSENCE: Do you feel any pressure to keep pumping out hits because of the younger artists?

MARY J. BLIGE: I feel no pressure. I pump out hits for my fans. They just want to hear from me. I don’t compete with the young generation, I learn from them. I listen to what they’re saying, so I can get a little bit of that, so we can cross, so we can have an understanding and hear each other.

Raven Symone. Hot or Not?

Here's Raven Symone seen with Will from the group Day 26.

So... we've seen the one side shaved look on celebs such as Cassie and LaLa. But do we like it on Raven Symone? In my opinion, once someone else already got the style noticed, it's not as exciting to see it one someone else again and again. Still love Raven though!

"Judgemental" Judy

2009-07-24T16:49:00.000-07:00

Judge Judy

Ok, I've been watching this show the past few days out of boredom. I've found that court shows are pretty interesting. For example, the show Judge Judy can sometimes be an attention grabber if the case is good.

But on a more negative note, Judge Judy is soooo judegemental. So yeah, she's smart. So yeah, she has her own TV show... But sometimes she handles her cases as if she know's the person personally. Sh'e always telling someone that they're a "liar" or a "fool". But what if she's completely wrong about the person and they're actually telling the truth. She speaks as if she were there to see the situation happen or something.

For example, today I watched an episode about one black girl suing another because she claimed to be "attacked". The other girl claimed that they both knowingly started that fight together. Judge Judy instantly believed the girl that claimed to be attacked. She instantly labeled the other girl as a "fool", and constantly raised her voice at and shut the other girl up.

How fair is that? Of course girl number one could have been attacked. But who are we to state that as a FACT. You could easily be wrong. Judge Judy could have easily been wrong.

But I guess it's her court so she feels that she is always right. Lol.

MJ's Memorial: My Most Emotional Moments

2009-07-07T14:39:00.000-07:00

I was proud of Paris for speaking out about her father at his memorial. I know it was hard for her and she was really brave and strong to have spoken.

Paris Jackson, 11-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson, took to the stage at her father's memorial at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

She felt the need to set the record straight, telling the global audience of millions that Michael was "the best father you could ever imagine."

"Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine," she said crying.

Clutching aunt Janet Jackson, she continued, "I just wanted to say I love him so much."

2009-07-05T16:02:00.001-07:00

Variations of my contemplated frustrations
If you do it, its ok.
I do it, you got a whole lot to say.

If you wanna have the privledges of doing whatever,
Don't you think I deserve better?
How you gonna get angry at me for things I say
but say the same things and its okay?

"She's just a friend, it was a joke." They're all common excuses
But let me do what you do and I'm known as ruthless.?

Why you seem to have a million friends that are "female"
but for all my male friends i get annoying hell?

Right now, to you, I just gotta say
Its gonna be fair and even
Starting today.

16 & Pregnant. Tonight @ 9

2009-07-02T17:34:00.000-07:00

Pretty good show. I enjoy watching these girls go through and overcome their struggles due to their pregnancy unexpectancy. Anyone having unprotected sex should watch this! lol

MTV's 16 and Pregnant' is an hour-long documentary series focusing on the controversial subject of teen pregnancy. Each episode follows a 5-7 month period in the life of a teenager as she navigates the bumpy terrain of adolescence, growing pains, rebellion, and coming of age; all while dealing with being pregnant.

Each story offers a unique look into the wide variety of challenges pregnant teens face: marriage, adoption, religion, gossip, finances, rumors among the community, graduating high school, getting (or losing) a job. Faced with incredibly adult decisions, these girls are forced to sacrifice their teenage years and their high school experiences. But there is an optimism among them; they have the dedication to make their lives work, and to do as they see fit to provide the best for their babies.

Tips on Approaching a Female :]

2009-07-01T13:41:00.000-07:00

Hmmm.... don't call a girl "shawty", "babe", "beautiful", or none of that other BS when you first meet her. Just be real, tell her your name, ask for hers. "Game" is so played out. lol

Never approach a girl with twenty of your friends behind you.

Don't call her out from way across the room.

If you're shy, let her know that. Don't try to act like something you're not.

Keep it simple. Don't go on and on about yourself being all cocky and whatnot.

Look at her face. Not her breasts. :]

Never use pre rehearsed lines. "Heaven must be missing an angel." Lmao

Don't try too hard.

Nervousness is kinda cute :]

So... yeah, that's how I would want to be approached... If I were like single or something. lol

Michael Jackson: Greatly Missed

2009-06-29T13:05:00.001-07:00

My heart is overwhelmed by the world's way of paying tribute to Michael Jackson. Radio staions, television stations, and shows have all been dedicating their time and support to pay tribute the the King of Pop. Who has had a greater influence globally?

I may be only 16 years old and the adults may say "Girl, what you know about Michael?" You'd be suprised. Raised my a mother obsessed with the man, an uncle dedicated to his every album, interview, television appearance, and word, and surrounded by a family in love with Michael Jackson like he was one of their own.

To hear that he had passed broke my family down. I had to take a moment to leave the house and escape from all the sadness. My mom nearly lost her mind, crying like i had never heard before. She talked about how it felt to see him in person and how she hated the way that half the world tried to make him seem like such a bad man. My auntie cried, and cried about how she felt so sorry for him family, kids, and mother.

My uncle pleaded to God and asked God why did he have to take this man when he was on the verge of a comeback. God works in mysterious ways.

I remebered being with my uncle and him having my little brother and I watching all his movies, videos, interviews, and listening to all his albums over and over again. Michael was a large part of my young life. Every family event or get together consisted of his albums being played constantly and my family members imitating his dance moves. Good times.

I remeber my mom's thriller jacket, all her albums, button, and other Michael Jackson collectables. I has the fortunate luck of being in a family that truly loved Micahel Jackson and was dedicated to his loving heart and amazing talents.

He will truly be missed. Even by my 5 year old cousin Grace, that listened to Micahel Jackson even in the womb. This man has made such a strong impact on the world. People in London, Tokyo, Africa, Australia faint and go hysterical at the site of him. Amazing.

I am so glad to the entertainment world paying their respects to Michael. It is finally time that he earned the respect that he deserved. Enough of the put-downs.

You will truly be missed Michael. But you will live on forever and forever.

2009-05-20T16:11:00.000-07:00

Boho-chic is a style of female fashion drawing on various bohemian and hippie influences, that, at its height in 2004-5, was associated particularly with actress Sienna Miller and model Kate Moss in the United Kingdom and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in the United States. This trend has been going on since late 2000.

Rick Ross Continues To Challenge Eminem

2009-04-24T14:33:00.000-07:00

Rick Ross is moving up the Aftermath food chain, no longer interested in 50 Cent. Instead, Ross, who just released his third album Deeper Than Rap, has set his sights on Fif's boss, Eminem.
"I mean, I'm a fan of Eminem," said Ross to MTV News. "I'm a fan first and foremost. But after defeating Curly, my confidence is at an all-time high. Maybe before I wouldn't have challenged him, but I'm contemplating it now. The game is commending me for my victory. That's all I wanted to do was ... punish the opposition. I think I've done a great job and I'm gonna continue to do that."
Ross appears to be particularly adamant about this, as this is the second time in the past week he has expressed interest in possibly challenging Eminem.
"I think he's a bigger and better artist than what Curly is," continued Ross. "So if I was looking to fulfill that excitement or that rush, that's who I have to address."
However, Ross revealed he'd be interested in being a part of Shady's upcoming album, Relapse.
"I'm trying to be a part of that," Ross said. "It's either way. We gonna see each other one way or another."

Lil Wayne Appears In Court For Gun Possession Case

2009-04-24T14:29:00.000-07:00

Lil Wayne appeared in front of a Manhattan Superior Court Judge yesterday (April 23) for a gun possession charge stemming from a 2007 arrest.

According to MTV News, Wayne did not speak during the hearing, as his lawyer filed a motion for additional discovery, which will have the officer who made the arrest in court next month.
The motion is the result of a possible inconsistency between the officer's account and a detective that filed the police report.

The testimony in court of the exchange between Wayne and the officer on Weezy's tour bus differed from what was entered into the police report. Police say they smelled marijuana before they stopped Wayne's bus and entered it, upon which they found an illegal gun. The rapper's lawyers say that the police did not smell the marijuana before stopping the bus, and therefore had no reason to search it.

In addition to the motion, an affidavit was filed to question DNA testing used to prove that the gun belonged to Lil Wayne and not legally registered to his manager, Cortez Byrant.
Wayne, the arresting officer and the detective who filled out the police report are scheduled to appear on May 20. The rapper's attorney was instructed by Judge Charles Solomon to call any additional witnesses on that day as well.

Cash Money label heads Bryan "Baby" Williams and Ronald "Slim" Williams arrived 10 minutes after Wayne to offer their support.

Billy Ray On Jamie's Miley Comments: 'Nothing Funny About It'

2009-04-16T17:28:00.000-07:00

OMG!LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Billy Ray Cyrus is responding to the off-color comments Jamie Foxx made about his daughter Miley Cyrus over the weekend.
"It was hurtful, there wasn't nothing funny about it," Billy Ray told Bonnie Hunt during an appearance on "The Bonnie Hunt Show," which taped Wednesday and airs on Thursday.

He added, "And quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter he might not find it so comedic."
Over the weekend, Jamie said Miley should, "make a sex tape and grow up," during his Sirius satellite radio show, the Associated Press reported.

The actor was also reportedly heard saying: "Who is Miley Cyrus ? The one with all the gums? She need to get a gum transplant!"
On Tuesday, "The Soloist" actor apologized to Miley during his appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno , " saying, "I so apologize to [Miley], and this is sincere. I am a comedian, and you guys know that whatever I say, I don't mean any of it. And sometimes, as comedians, as we do, we go a little bit too far."

Twitter! WHAT THE HELL...?

2009-04-16T17:21:00.000-07:00

What the hell is this huge deal with twitter??
I sure souldn't figure it out myself so I decided to do a little wiki research.

"Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length which are displayed on the user's profile page and delivered to other users who have subscribed to them (known as followers). Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow anybody to access them. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or applications such as Tweetie, Twitterrific, Twitterfon, TweetDeck and feedalizr."

So uh... What's so great about it. Let me know :-)
