"I would buy my mom a house and let her say from ground up. A lambo. A farrari. Especially a buggatti because there was only 200 made in axsitants. A basketball court in the house I would live in."
you've probably heard by now...
...that the rapture is kicking off this weekend. on saturday, there is going to be a huge earthquake, and g-d is going to pick all of his favorites out and bring them up to heaven, leaving the rest of us sinners down here to party our tails off until october, when the world will end and we'll head on down to you-know-where.
i just happen to be flying on rapture-day, and as thomas wilhelm pointed out, it's probably going to end up a lot like stephen king's tv mini-series the langoliers.

Obama, Tennessee Titans Have No Clue Why Team Invited To White House
WASHINGTON—As cameras snapped and members of the press looked on, neither President Obama nor members of the Tennessee Titans were able to provide any indication as to why the professional football team might have been invited to visit the White House Tuesday. "We are honored to have this team here today," said Obama, who paused to confer privately with an aide after appearing confused by the appearance in the Oval Office of the NFL's 27th-ranked team. "It's good to see you. God bless America." Following the exchange, the befuddled Titans handed the president a jersey, posed for more pictures, and flew back to Nashville in confused silence.

katniss!!
here she is!
In a free-wheeling interview, Lawrence describes her first encounter with Ross last winter, during the height of Oscar season. “He was asking me what the experience was like,” she recalls, “and I just kind of opened up and said, ‘I feel like a rag doll. I have hair and makeup people coming to my house every day and putting me in new, uncomfortable, weird dresses and expensive shoes, and I just shut down and raise my arms up for them to get the dress on, and pout my lips when they need to put the lipstick on.’ And we both started laughing because that’s exactly what it’s like for Katniss in the Capitol. (via)LOL! jennifer lawrence is a real-life katniss! also i read that the hunger games has been shooting in a ghost town in north carolina, which is right about where district 12 would be. here's a fun fan-made map of panem with best guesses about how the districts lay out. enjoy!
