melissa is babysitting

i asked her to take some pixies of the children and let me know what theyre like.
this is what she sent.

This is Gracie...She is the best. Doesnt bark or make peep/poops in the house! She is the only one that is allowed to "stay out, all day"!


This is all of them together. As you can see sandy is pooped from that mean little millie (you'll see why she is mean next). Also please note that Gracie will play rough with millie and right when millie thinks she is winning Gracie out smarts her by jumping on something high- bc millie hasnt learned to jump on things, yet...
thats also why gracie's food is on the kitchen tabe (ew) so millie cant reach it (yay). apparently dog food is way more yummy than pup food.


Sandy was chewin on the toy alone in peace... until gracie jump on the table to get away from millie...so millie took the opportunity to come over and bite Sandy's jaw...thats right. not the toy but her freaking JOWL! mean millie mean.

brb outside : grizzly bear concert

as i mentioned, last night g.animalz and i braved the mist to go see 2Pz favorite, gRiZzLy BeAr in concert!! i don't think i have to tell y'all that it was 11 biscuits. but i will. 11 biscuits!!!!!!!!!!!!

remember when we were talking about how there arent going to be cars in times square anymore? here's what that looks like. i wasn't sure how i felt about it, but it was pretty cool, and much easier to walk.

historic town hall. designed by mckim, mead, and white. and home to legendary acts such as louis armstrong, tony bennet, and jenny lewis!

here we go magic, from brooklyn, opened. they were really very pleasant.

ever been to an all ages show in nyc? me neither. it was real weird. kids and parents everywhere.

there they are! grizzly bear! they performed several tracks with the brooklyn youth chorus, who also appears on the album. they were really great.

the stage lighting was fantastic. hard to capture in photos, but some of the best i've seen. the hanging votives were just gorgeous. especially when they twinkled.

more with the brooklyn youth chorus.


and finally, i found a youtube of a standout track of the night, "ready, able". enjoy!

memphis pastors and civil rights leaders unite

...against gay people.

there is a proposal from a council member to amend the non-discrimination clause to include LGBT people, so that gays and lesbians can't be fired from their jobs just because of their orientation in Shelby County.

im surprised this isnt already the law everywhere, but for some reason this seems to be raising quite a stink here in the bluff city. former leaders of the civil rights movement have joined forces with white suburban conservative ministers to denounce the proposed change.

its really sad when you have a leader of the community with a reputation for supporting the rights of black americans turning around and saying that he didnt walk one step in the protests for civil rights in the 60s for gay people. gobbles my goop. being gay isnt a choice, being black isnt a choice. lets move forward.

i only have hate for you

chris "rihanna-beater" brown wants us all to know he has an album coming out (which i will not buy) and a single dropping this summer (which i will not listen to). also, he is "not a monster" (which i know not to be true).

UPDATE: women of memphis beware

NeRd aLeRt!

Ellerbe Becket who has designed some other NBA arenas has been brought on by Forest City Ratner to "implement cost cutting measures" on the Frank Gehry designed arena for the New Jersey Nets in Brooklyn.
Additionally, Frank Gehry has laid off every one of his employees that was working on the Atlantic Yards project.
GULP.
Ellerbe Becket may be good enough for Memphis or Charlotte, but not Brooklyn. 2 cents.

prisoner no. 59458019

the king of the south, TI showed up today in forrest city arkansas to spend 366 days in jail. there were some beautiful women from central arkansas at the gates of the prison cheering for him and professing their unyielding love and support for the rapper. his last album, Paper Trail, was awesome and i can't wait to see what he cooks up in prison.


tiger bite

kumari the tiger bit her trainer at the MEMPHIS ZOO this weekend when they forgot to close the doors to her cage and she was wandering around the hallways.

stoopid. did you know the memphis zoo has pandas?

turn your speekerz aaaallllll the way up.

oyr.

caroline manzo, my fave new jersey housewife, wants us all to believe she and her family have no mafia connections and the only thing they have in common with sopranos is being a loving family.

"Of course, not every family has a 350-pound skeleton in its closet. Albert “Tiny” Manzo, the hulking father-in-law to two of the Housewives, ended his life naked, bound in plastic, and stuffed in the trunk of a Lincoln Continental with four slugs in his chest. It has been reported that Tiny was whacked after he was caught skimming the take from an illegal casino owned by the Gambino crime family in Staten Island."

oh yeah right.

thx g.

nErD aLeRt!

cameron's house from ferris beuller's day off is for sale! thx sj.

stoopid.

We admit we weren’t expecting anything this exciting from the latest American Apparel e-mail touting “Exciting New Styles,” but how wrong we were to underestimate the sexually charged company. After clicking through images of floral swimwear and men’s bow ties, it all looked like standard hipster protocol. But, suddenly, amid the photos of new merch, we clicked open a JPEG to reveal a thrilling new addition to the American Apparel line: assless tights. (nymag)

what is kismet doing?

gay person dislikes other gay person

clay aiken has spoken out against adam lambert... called him "contrived, awful, slightly frightening." he also admits that he only watched one episode of the series. what a douche.

turns out ms. aiken stepped onto the american idol set last week to ask adam to tour with him and got his ass kicked off the set. bitter queen.

makes me miss david archuleta.

oops!

when you put pictures of them side by side, it makes it seem like they actually had a debate!


but they didn't!
