Caution!

Can you say Lawsuit? I made the mistake of opening this at work and then lost my composure for a full thirty minutes because I couldn't stop laughing.

you are what you eat

This was in my horoscope today.

Maybe home is where the heart is, but there's another truism connected to your physical center: You are what you eat. Watch what goes into your stomach these days, and consider what that says about you. Also consider your health and well-being. Sampling the world with your taste buds is a primal human experience, although eating your fill is often more connected to comfort than need. What's good for you, and when do you stop? Moderation is a lot easier when you pay attention to what your body is telling you. This is why refrigerators and microwave ovens were invented.

relationship

A relationship is like a second job with no pay. Why work so hard for nothing? I rather be anorexic. At least I'd see results.

janet jackson's tits

I didn't watch the Super Bowl yesterday. Apparently I missed one helluva halftime show. Janet's titties are being talked about more than the actual football game. Too funny.

So, courtesy of the mefi thread that made me laugh so loud in the computer lab they came over and told me to shut up, an animated gif of the tit seen around the world.

On MeFi, there is much debate as to whether she was wearing a pasty or not. I'll let you decide:

CBS and MTV are both acting like they didn't know that was going to happen. Yeah, right. She just had her shit all dolled up like that (complete with the rip away boob covering outfit) because that's how she dresses all the time.

STOP!!!

The Butterfly Effect

Nakachi and I saw The Butterfly Effect this weekend. Ignore all the rotten tomatoes this movie has gotten and see it for yourself. It will be well worth it.

I found myself caught up in Evan Treborn's story and wondering what I would do given the opportunity to change things in my past. What if you chose plan B instead of plan A? How would your life be different.

Evan Treborn is a young man that suffers serious blackouts during stressful times in his life. The cause of these blackouts is never fully explained until he reaches college. In college, psychology major Evan has decided to write a paper on memory. A chance reunion with the journals from his youth sends him back in time and thus begins the butterfly effect. Each time Evan goes back, he tries to make a change to help the people he cares about - his mother, his friends Tommy and Lenny and his childhood sweetheart Kayleigh. Each time he returns from a foray into the past he discovers that something else is fucked up - Tommy is a psychopathic felon, Lenny is a vegetative loon and Kayleigh is a drugged out whore with a hideous scar on the side of her face.

You have to watch the film to fully appreciate it and again I urge you to ignore the rotten reviews. It was actually a pretty good flick.

Prince

The Prince concert was phenomenal. That man is so talented and he put on a hellified show, better than the one at the Aladdin last year. House of Blues is a more intimate venue and it lends itself well to the type of show that Prince likes to put on.

I can't remember the exact order of all the songs, but I know the first one was Musicology. He also did What is Hip and DMSR, Controversy, Shhh (break it down), an instrumental of Sweet Thing, I Feel For You, The Love We Make, Girls and Boys and oh god I know I'm forgetting some.

I was in sensory overload. The band was all of that (including Maceo Parker on Alto-Sax) and he looked so damn good in his khaki colored pants and black tunic. I had a totally unobstructed view of him for the entire show. That rocked.

This show made me love Prince more than I already did. Oh, one thing I noticed was that he changed all the sexually explicit lyrics to spiritual things. For instance, in I Feel for You he said "I wouldn't lie to you baby, it's mainly a spiritual thang" instead of "it's mainly a physical thang". I didn't care. He still owns you.

If you've never seen Prince live, do it before you die.
