So Fly, She Was Transatlantic

You may or may not remember this androgynous dude from the Boost Mobile rap commercial. After I saw that commercial I just kept wondering, who is that guy who kind of is hot in a gross womanly drug addict way if you like guys who wear eyeliner. Which I don't. Buut anyway I decided to get more information about him in case he actually was pretty good. Turns out, he is.

It's Funny Cause It's True

Luke sent me this list and I was dying over how many of them made me shout "I like that!" If you ever need to know how to mingle amongst white people, or wonder just how clichely (is that a word?) white you really are, give it a read. It's really really really funny and almost entirely about 80s night.

If you plan on dealing with white people, it would serve you well to know some local breakfast places. This will also come in handy if you pick someone up at 80s night. In white person law, if you meet someone at 80s night and then go out for breakfast the next morning, then you are automatically in a relationship. There are no exceptions.

So.. how was the ass fucking?

These are hardly new but Ian turned me on to them and they are sooo funny. Stella is a three man comedy group started by Michael Ian Black, Michael Showalter and David Wain in 1997. They did stand-up sketch and then made some super hilarious shorts. These are two of my favorites.






If this tickles your fancy you can find an archive of their stuff here.

Pack Your Knives and Go

One of the many perks of my job is that I get to eat lunch with different celebrities, musicians and tv personalities. Previous contenders include Bret Michaels, Eva Mendes, Mary J. Blige and Natasha Bedingfield (snore). Today I had the pleasure of enjoying a meal with Top Chef's host and hostess, Tom Colicchio

and Padma Lakshmi.


I have to say that I have a big ol' crush on Chef Colicchio. He's a nice, mild-mannered guy with a shaved head (yum). He was pleasant and professional and adorable. Padma, not so much. She has a great body but she seems prettier on the show, not to mention that she is in desperate need of a stylist. She dominated most of the conversation and seemed more or less like a bitch. I will give her one thing though -girl can eat. I've never seen someone actually come to one of our lunches and do more than just push some salad around on a plate. Padma had two helpings of food and a cookie. Good for her.

Season 4: Chicago is promising to be the best season yet according to these two, with the contestants being overall the most talented so far. Noteworthy: no contestants were allowed to leave Chicago until the end of the competition because bloggers and newspapers were following them so closely that sending home the eliminated players would have spoiled the whole show before it even aired. They are not allowed cell phones, newspapers, television, magazines, books (except 2 non-food related books they are allowed to bring from home), music or any connection to the outside world at all. No wonder there's so much dramz.

Your Vegas is Showing




It's official: April 3-7th me and Lindsey will be going to the greatest place in America- Vegas. Duh. I love Las Vegas more than I love anyone or anything on earth and I can't wait to be back. Should be the most excellent with 4 nights of spas, drinking, Cirque, partying, pooling, shopping, dining and more drinking. Plus I will (hopefully) get to see lots of cute friends who I have been missing. Icing on the cake is that we get to do it all in a pyramid. I probably couldn't be more excited for anything!
