SPORTS!!!


the grizzlies beat the lakers yesterday, even though kobe scored more points on one game than any laker, ever...



it was a particularly sweet win, as 2 years ago we traded pau gasol to the lakers and got his brother marc (and some other stuff). no one thought that was a good idea, and now the grizzlies are back in playoff contention, and looking better than ever.

additionally, the grizzlies are playing cleveland tonight (right now), so feel free to cheer them on.

ugh, this is the nation's first male prostitute, "markus". he's a 25 year old college drop-out, ex-marine, from hatton AL, and no, he doesn't sleep with menz. he's hole up at the shady lady ranch in NV where he charges $200 for forty minutes, and $300 for an hour. here are two wonderful quote from new york post lady-reporter, mandy stadtmiller, who spent a couple hours with markus, but didn't do the nasty :

"'so,' markus says after leaning over and kissing my knee, 'we’re going to get undressed and then take a shower. then we can both inspect each other to make sure there are no discrepancies.'
minutes later, as we’re standing naked in the shower, he’s examining me like a second-rate gynecologist and nodding.
'yeah,' he murmurs, cooing that i’m 'practically' an 8 or a 9. 'everything looks great down there.'
oh. my. god."

"he’s half irish, a quarter native american, a quarter scandinavian and all lover. favorite book: '1984.' favorite movie: 'braveheart.' actor he’s like: 'steve-O.' musician he’s like: 'moby,' or — wait for it — 'choppin' (meaning chopin)."

shew, good luck you boxy son-of-a-bitch.

this is essentially a memphis- new york blog, and harold ford jr is essentially a memphis- new york guy. i voted for him in 2006 when he lost to bob corker to represent tennessee in the senate, a race he would have won if the republicans hadn't run that racist campaign ad.

now he wants to be in the senate again, this time in new york. stephen colbert, ms. gillibrand , and barack obama are doing their best to make sure that doesn't happen.

it doesn't really bother me that he flip flopped his position on gay marriage, etc... it seems to me that an elected official should be voting according to the beliefs of his district anyway. i think he would be a fine senator, and am a little confused about the "carpetbagger" discomfort considering they are basically replacing another former southern transplant in Hillary Clinton. what do you think?

this just in, an old lady gaga song



and guess what, its excellent!

Reportedly, Hulu will start its for-pay model slowly, charging just for episodes of 30 Rock, House, and Modern Family. Now, these shows are on network television: NBC, FOX and ABC, respectively. In other words, these programs are free to watch anyway (assuming the presence of a television set), even for people who don't pay for cable service.

Another proposed plan would allow Hulu users to watch the five most recent episodes of a program but require a monthly subscription (at $4.99 a pop) to watch older episodes. Hulu executives recognize that in order to make subscriptions attractive, they would need to offer at least 20 TV series in their entirely. Five bucks per month is much cheaper than a cable bill, for people who want to get their fill of basic-cable fare (Mad Men! Damages!) over their laptops.

my city vs. your city


based on info from last.fm, compare what people listen to in your city vs my city.

the venn diagram displays the amount of overlap.
