I would have forgotten the MTV Video Music Awards were on last night had I not seen several postings about it to remind me
I'm not going to make this all about that show though so as to bore those of you that could care less. However, there are a few things I wanted to get off my chest about it...
Like is it just a man thing that I could really care less that Beyonce is pregnant? It's been the hottest news topic ever since she brought it up last night. You'd be hard-pressed to find out how the folks are dealing with Hurricane Irene but I bet you don't have to look far to find news on Bey's pregnancy
This new song "Otis" by Jigga and Kanye...not feelin' it. And I actually like both of them. I just know they can both do better. About the only thing the song is good for is to get the younger folks hip to the original track by Otis Redding so they can be schooled on how great he was
I could really go for some wings right about now. It's been a while since I've had any. And by "a while" I mean a couple of weeks
One thing good that did come out of that MTV award show was a commercial for their new show "Death Valley". It looks HILARIOUS! DVR was set for it before the commercial even ended
Some people were bothered by the fact that Britney Spears got a VMA Lifetime Achievement Award. Why? She has no vocal ability so videos were about the only thing she was good for
Turntable doesn't want to act right for me now. It's like it's trying to tell me that it doesn't want me to get addicted and it's staging its own intervention. Whatever. You don't know me like that, Turntable!
Had to go back to Cedar Rapids recently and realized that there really isn't much to miss about that place anymore. Even that caramel apple shake at Kool Moo didn't taste as good as I remember it
You can feel the climate slowly started to shift towards fall as the temps cool off. It's just a matter of time now before people start complaining that it's too cold
I was watching the show "Ancient Aliens" on the History Channel while editing my last photo gig and was amazed at how many folks from the olden days had stories of seeing alien being and/or spacecraft. But then I wondered how many of them may have just been on something since drugs weren't illegal then
By the way, the shoot from that day was pretty dang amazing if I must say so myself. I used one of my fave pics from the day as the photo for this entry to prove it
One of the biggest minuses with working from home is the hours I keep. I tend to start early and end late. That 14-hour work day that I put in on Thursday was a harsh reminder of that
I updated my profile on Model Mayhem but I'm still not completely convinced of the usefulness of that site. I've been out there for several months now and have had exactly one person contact me via that site interested in doing a shoot
Hung on as long as I could but it looks like it's time to let the hair go and go back to the bald fade. *talking to the hair follicles* You had a good ride, fellas
Dear Words With Friends: "Jedi" is too a word. Update your dictionary again
Neither of my sons like anything DC. I don't get it. I grew up on both Marvel AND DC
I know it's just preseason but I'm getting tired of seeing my Chiefs get their butts kicked
They're remaking "The Thing" AGAIN?? Why? The one with Kurt Russell was already perfect
Glad to hear that Janet Jackson's show at the State Fair was a success. That's a huge feather in the Fair's cap. Don't know how they're going to top that now unless they manage to somehow wrangle U2
We all know of at least one person who alive today only because you did not want to go to prison
'Nuff said.
