I like Lindsay Lohan. 

I k now I’m in the minority here.  And, truth be told, I can’t explain why. 

It’s certainly not her acting skills, I can’t say I’ve even seen here in any movie except for A Prairie Home Companion, and she was terrible in that. 

It’s DEFINITELY not her singing ability.  I heard she was using her free time in jail to write songs that she will record as soon as she is released .  My first thought was, “I hope they keep her really busy”.

Is it her sophistication?  Bwah ha!  I’m pretty sure you could fill a small scrapbook of, well, inappropriate shots of Lindsay in public.

Is it her personal story?  Something beautiful growing out of despair?  Whatever, that’s thinking too much. 

One could argue that it’s obvious.  There are many, um, things that most males find attractive about L Lohan.  But it’s more than that.  There are plenty of other gals out there with similar attributes that I hope disappear tomorrow.  Example, anyone with an “ashian” in there name.  Or anyone named after a French city…

So, there really is no answer…I just like Lindsay Lohan.  I don’t want to see her in a movie, I don’t want to hear her sing…I don’t like anything she does.  I guess I just like the idea that she’s out there, existing.  Whatever she’s doing, I hope somebody’s taking pictures. 

I doubt that will be a problem anytime soon.

I hope when I’m this guy’s age (whatever that is) I can move it like this. Allright, I wish I could move it like this right now!

Check out this senior citizen tearing it up on the dancefloor to Lady Gaga’s “Pokerface” with guys half his age (unsuccessfully) trying to keep up! Make sure to watch until the end for his closing move…

YOW!

I love sports!  But, I may not be the best advocate for soccer.  I’m not REALLY sure what the rules are (except, don’t use your hands, everybody knows THAT!), I couldn’t tell you a single player on a foreign team and I’m not a sophisticated enough fan to appreciate a 0-0 tie.  It doesn’t help that my attention span is preeeeety much zero.

That said, I’ve missed a majority of the World Cup so far.  So thanks to Legos for helping me out!  If you missed the USA – England matchup on Saturday, here’s a thrilling recap of the game…Lego’s style!

Now, if Legos could re-create the MTV Movie awards, I might watch that too….no I won’t.

U S A ! U S A !

Is this Barack Obama? 

Gawker.com broke this story over the weekend that the gentleman pictured in this 1993 video for Tag Team’s “Whoomp There it is” is (perhaps) indeed the current President of the United States!  Hmmm, Obama would have been about 31, and he IS left handed…

O.K., realistically , it’s not.  Tag Team has come out publicly and said it’s NOT Obama, but a friend and fellow rapper named LA Sno (who actually looks nothing like Obama according to the duo).  But, I’m sure Tag Team has really enjoyed the press at least. 

So, as awesome as it would have been to have had our President in a cheesy 90’s rap video, we’ll have to settle for watching a cheesy 90’s rap video.  Catch the Obama doppelganger (Obamalganger?) at about 1:10.

  Enjoy!

I present to you, people sleeping where sleep should not be possible!

Do you think he started off on the bench, or the roof?

It does get tiring trying to push these things when the wheels lock up.

She was just going on and on and on….

At least it's not moving….now THAT would be impressive!

If this guy wakes up right now, he's not going to go back to sleep for loooong time.

Possibly the most zen thing I have ever seen…

There is not one part of this that looks comfortable. Not even those pillows. THERE'S PILLOWS IN THE BATHROOM!

 

We've all been there. Maybe not HERE, but there….

 Sleep tight, wherever you are!

It’s no secret that I love my bike. So OF COURSE I know that today is National Bike to Work Day! Good thing it’s supposed to be BEAUTIFUL out!

Buuuut, if you just can’t ride today, here’s a heads up. Denver’s Bike to Work Day is June 23rd. So you have a whole MONTH to get ready….no excuses.

Here’s a link with more info: Denver Bike to Work Day

Happy pedaling!

He’s been getting a lot of buzz….a LOT of buzz with his videotaped performance of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi”. (Notice, this school is chick city. Hardly dude in the crowd.)

BUT, the story doesn’t end with one cover song. This kid’s got talent to burn. Here’s Greyson, again on Youtube, with his ORIGINAL song “Stars”.

What were YOU up to in 6th grade?

So, the world is in a fuss over this interview in which Justin Bieber appears unfamiliar with the word “German”. 

But what he ALSO says is, “We don’t say that in America.”

Justin, you’re Canadian…You’re welcome.

As Earth month comes to an end, I figured I’d throw out one last reason to find ways to be green.  Money!  Tonight, I compare how an items “used” status makes it less expensive and more green…but is it worth it?  The list is small because I have a VERY short attention span. 

Exhibit A:  Music

I bought this used CD at Wax Tracks on 13th for a mere five bucks.  Green?  Somewhat, since it is an item that exists and without somebody appreciating it, it becomes trash.  It’s easy just to download music these days, which is the greeenest, but I kind of like having the case and the art inside.  Besides, it took 30 seconds of listening to transport me back to the time I bought this particular album the first time around, on cassette.  Time warps are priceless.  Bonus points are invloved for anybody who can NAME THAT ALBUM!

Exhibit B:  Books

If you can't find a 60 year old book used, you're not looking hard enough.

Easy call on this one.  Green?  Yes.  Cool?  Even yesser!  What’s more hip than buying a used book (especially the example given)?  That’s more hipster than all of the fixie’s and scarves and hand rolled cigarettes in Uptown!  I understand you can download books now and read them on your Kindle, which is green, but it’s also just about the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard of.  I mean, I would feel so silly taking one of those into the bathroom.

Exhibit C:   Clothing

I couldn't even go in…I got cold sweats just thinking about it.

I have a confession.  I don’t buy clothes.  OK, I buy some…socks, boxers, random accessories.  But my girlfriend has pretty much dressed me for years.  Her good style combined with my UTTER HATRED of clothes shopping has been a happy circumstance for the both of us.  But, I hear used clothes places rock.  They sell the same awesome brands, of which I have no idea, as new clothing stores but at lower prices.  Win for green, win for cheap.  My friend Doogie thrift store shops all the time and always lets me know how much the shirt he is wearing costs, “It was only a DOLLAR”!  Although I wouldn’t recommend wearing what he typically does.  But what do I know?

Exhibit D:  Food

Not just pizza, Sexy Pizza!

So there ARE limits to what is good to buy used.  For example, this piece of pizza is BARELY used.  It’s still warm and by all accounts JUST as delicious it would be new.  But, with one small defect, it becomes virtually worthless.  Even if I gave it way for free it would most likely be rejected unless I knew the person really well.  Green?  Uh, sure.  Cheap?  Gross, cooties! 

Well, I’m pretty sure this is the most important thing you’ve ever read.  You’re welcome…
