The Gossip US Tour

UGH. why does it always have to be Terminal 5 (10/9 in NYC). that place blows am i right?

Go see The Gossip on tour. I bet they are great on tour and I want to go. Maybe we could make it a triple feature with Cloverfield 2 and Harry Potter.

did you see?

the new tim burton alice in wonderland teaser trailer?


it looks like it might be as good as his willy wonka. i hope for far better.

"Everybody knew what time it was."


When you hear guns cocking coming your way, you know what time it is, time to get the hell out of the backyard in South Memphis where the dice game is going on.

Antonio Burks, a former UofM Tiger basketball player and former MEMPHIS GRIZZLY ended up with some extra holes in his body after the ill fated dice game Monday night. There were some other Tiger players "at the wrong place at the wrong time" including Clyde Wade, who I used to have running races with in elementary school. Dice games can be dangerous; one of the first lessons I learned in high school was which bathrooms to avoid because dice games can turn into fist fights. The robbers took peoples money and clothes (ctm) and then drove off in their GMC gangsta mobile.

i hope you heal up and get better at basketball Antonio, so maybe you can get some playing time.

i hope not sporadically

this movie is such a gem. im going to start a blog called 365 days of clueless, and watch it every day for a year and see what happens. Book deal, movie option, ryan or justin or bradley as joel.

Carly alerted me to this really funny blog that makes lists of 11 points, because "top 10 lists are for cowards."

"senator paul stanley, champion of family values, caught in sex-and-blackmail scandal."

"Laura Buxton released a helium filled balloon during celebrations for her grandparents' gold wedding anniversary in Blurton, Staffordshire, in June 2001. Attached to the balloon was her name and address and a note asking the finder to write back. Ten days later she received a reply. The balloon had been found by another Laura Buxton in the garden hedge of her home in Pewsey, Wiltshire, 140 miles away. Both Lauras were age 10 and both both had three year old black Labradors, matching guinea pigs, and a rabbit

movie review : bruno



g.ani and i saw bruno last night! just wanted to let you guys know what i thought about it real quick...

11 biscuits!!

the humor is strangely very intelligent and really stupid all at once. it's pretty vulgar, but not too offensive. they spend a lot of time in alabama, which is a treat. i don't want to say too much because i will rueen it, but i recommend. you go see it, and then we can talk about our favorite parts all day long, ok?!

ok.

tough questions from the new york times

Funny Story

Last night I was on the phone with my mom discussing how I need to be more responsible when she suddenly squealed. I asked her what all the commotion was about and she told me that she and Kismet had just fallen off the bed. True story.

looks like fun
