Bye, bye, its been a sweet love. Though this feeling I cant change.
But please don’t take it badly, cause lord knows I’m to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl, things just couldn’t be the same.
Cause I’m as free as a bird now,
And this bird you’ll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I cant change.
Lord help me, I cant change.

Myheritage face recognition is fun. Not sure how terribly accurate it is tho. This is what they came up with:
I’m not thoroughly convinced I look a lot like Jason Newsted. I REALLY don’t think I look like Martin Luther King, Jr. I’m bothered it thinks I look like Raven Symone. I’m flattered it thinks I look like George Harrison and Terrence Howard. Regardless, the message here is apparently all humans are a lot more alike than they are different since I apparently strongly resemble a Muslim, several Blacks, a female, and whatever Jason Newsted is. Pretty heavy message huh? Maybe since it’s a Monday I should stick with more pictures of people I don’t look like. ( See previous post. ) What I really think this proves is face recognition has a way to go apparently before it’s perfected. To prove my point, here’s another pic I used:
The cutest little girl I ever saw was on The Wonder Years. Winnie Cooper, who was played by Danica McKellar. Now, I never watched The Wonder Years for the plot. All I ever watched it for was a chance to see Winnie for just a little bit. The show itself bored me for the most part. Apparently that was a long time ago. Researching this post, I didn’t realize exactly how long ago it was. Winnie apparently grew up without me noticing:
Now, she hasn’t sat still, but I just haven’t been watching what she’s done. I’m sure most other people have, I just never watched her stuff. She’s actually been very busy apparently:

That list is JUST the last five years. And, that’s just the acting. She’s produced, directed, and written stuff as well. And, she’s posed some too:

So, what does one do as a follow-up to all that, while simultaneously driving 40-something year old men nuts with lust? She’s sending out a message somewhat different than the one Paris, Nicole, and Lindsay are sending out:
“But I want to show them that being smart is cool,” she said.
“Being good at math is cool - and what’s more, it can help them get what they want out of life.”
I’m going to amend her thoughts just a little bit. Fun and glamorous is fun to look at. Sexy and smart is HOT! HOT! HOT! There’s no comparing Paris, Nicole, or Lindsay to Danica. They’re not in the same league.
I hope girls listen to her message. I get really tired of girls wasting hot looks and bods on acting stupid just to be cool. They’re fun for one night or so, but if you want it to last, learn something new every day and talk about it. Trust me. I’ve been there, done those. The smartest babe won.
Don’t let the reviews fool you on this one. This movie will never be seen on Fox. The funniest scene of the movie guarantees it. This is typical Simpsons writing at its best. They start the movie off by mocking you, the viewer, for doing what it is that SOME previews complain about. Beautiful turn on the reviewers in my opinion. From there on, it just gets better and never really lets up. It even makes the most usual mistake every movie makes by trying to toss in some sentimental fluff to give the movie depth, but even that fluff doesn’t slow the movie down too much.
This is a MUST SEE movie. Forget about Harry Potter and all the other over-hyped stuff. Just be sure to see this one.
UPDATE 7/31/07: I knew this would happen. People are debating the political overtones to the movie. So far, I think Volokh has the best debate going. Definitely worth a read.
Sphere: Related ContentI recently got banned from Youtube. It didn’t bother me too much as I know there are tons of other servers out there begging for hits. I just decided to fall back on one that doesn’t give me a lot of grief over simple things. However, some people don’t take too kind to Youtube’s heavy handed random enforcement of copyright “infringements”. The latest flap is over a video of a little baby dancing to Prince’s Let’s Go Crazy. That link is to Michelle Maulkin’s post, not Youtube. I’m kinda put out with them. She gets the hits, they don’t. Get it? Now, the silly part of this is the video clip is about 30 seconds long. The music is in the background. It’s incidental, and it’s low quality audio. It got yanked. If you prefer to hear a better version, just search for “Let’s Go Crazy” on Youtube and you can watch this:
The entire song. I see no copyright acknowledgment, nothing to say it belongs to Universal Music Group or Warner Brothers. It’s just there. Just as my stuff was, just as the dancing toddler was/is.
Or, if you prefer, you can watch one of the myriad rappers ripping off “Let’s Go Crazy” on Youtube. No acknowledgment of the original artist, no copyright acknowledgment, nothing. Or, you can watch other performers doing the same song in it’s entirety with no copyright acknowledgments at all as well. Out of all that, Youtube censures the dancing baby only. They’ve got problems at Youtube. One problem they won’t have to deal with is me posting obscure performances that people for the most part have forgotten completely about over time and if Youtube and the copyright holders had their way, would be forgotten forever. The one way to assure this doesn’t happen, for the time being, is to use providers that care more about the user than splitting legal hairs. When they start bucking up to the copyright owners and compel them to be more logical in how to deal with these sometimes incredibly obscure copyrights, THEN things will be a lot more pleasant and informative for the world. And if they don’t figure it out sooner, or even make an effort to try, the first victim in this fight will be Youtube. It would seem to me that the peeps at Google would have a clue just how fickle an internet user can be.
Sphere: Related ContentVery shortly after being released from rehab to basically avoid going to jail, Lindsay stopped to pose for this pic. Unfortunately, it was the Santa Monica police station taking the portrait. While wearing an ankle bracelet to test for alcohol, Lindsay decided to take a drive, have a few drinks, apparently snort a little coke, and couldn’t resist the temptation of harassing someone else while driving. Now, a while back I did a little parody on Paris Hilton’s 45 days in jail. That was just a parody because I didn’t think Paris would get too much exposure to others, didn’t think she’d make it 45 days, and didn’t think she’d get horny enough in that time to make a movie like this:
Now, Lindsay, on the other hand, will possibly be behind bars for a LOT longer. Secondly, playing for the other team doesn’t seem to be totally out of the question. And, I don’t think people are going to be afraid of her being at risk too much, since she seems to be able to handle a knife quite professionally:
I think she’ll fit in quite nicely. Maybe, when she comes out, she’ll have her head on straight. It amazes me how these Hollywood stars of late just don’t seem to have a clue how good they’ve got it. Some never figure it out. Some lose it all and never do. It just makes me wonder how they ever got it good in the first place.
About the only thing I see saving Lohan at this point would be a rocking prison girl-girl flick to sneak out while she’s locked up. Her sex appeal has been taking some serious blows of late. At least with me. I just don’t find terribly stupid babes all that sexy after a very short period of time. And, Lindsay’s time is up.
Sphere: Related ContentAn actual sign on rte. 1 in dedham,ma, originally uploaded by Rob React.
I read this on Fox:
Families driving down Route 1 in Boston did not expect to see a construction sign that said, “Penis for lunch.”
Transportation authorities said the sign was the work of a prankster who was able to hack into the system that controls the signs.
Authorities didn’t find out about the sign until it was up for most of the morning and afternoon. The sign was soon shut off, instead of being re-programmed.
“Some people might see it as a joke, but this is a road that is traveled on by families and children and there are some people that don’t find it funny,” said a transportation spokesman.
Put me in the category of those that find it funny. I have a small kid as well, and it’s still funny! Others just need to chill out and recognize how clever someone was.
Sphere: Related ContentA friend of mine is a cable guy now. He was marveling at the creative lengths people would go to get a free signal. That brought back some memories. When I was a kid, FM radio hadn’t quite proliferated the world yet. AM was still king. because I lived in rural Kentucky, the more progressive stations at that time were far, far, away. Now, with AM, that didn’t stop anything. It just meant you needed one heck of an antenna to pick up places like Cleveland and Chicago. I had an old radio that was in one of those big boxes about the size of a small refrigerator that had been given to me to destroy. It occasionally would pick up WGN in Chicago, barely. They were playing the songs I liked ( not the Osmond Brothers for example ). However, it was spotty at best and the least cloud cover they were gone. Now, me and my buddy figured out real quick that the more antenna you had, the better your signal got. We also figured out as well that motors had literally miles and miles of copper wiring. So, we did the logical thing and ran the antenna loop into my mother’s washing machine. This worked fabulously as there were two neat bolts to screw the wire loop onto. So, we stripped power cords and ran a loop down the hall to the washing machine and hooked it to the back of the radio. We tested our connection and I really can’t remember whether it helped the signal or not. Either way, we lost interest and went outside to play. After a while, when it was getting dark and I was heading home, I noticed a very bad thing. Smoke was coming out my bedroom window. Mom threw what was left of my radio away. When she wasn’t around, I discretely threw away my very special wiring. Best I recall, she never did say anything to me about it. I think she knew she didn’t have to.
Sphere: Related ContentThis is so stupid.
A one-night stand with party prisoner Paris Hilton can apparently destroy a man and his career.
Just an offer to make Millsy feel better. Come party in my little town. You’d be OK. No one would have a clue who you are. And, if the rumor did get out you had done the nasty with Paris, I really doubt anyone would care. Most of us guys here have done a few babes we’d just as soon forget. In this town, Paris would just be in that category. And, quite honest, doing an underage babe who’s spent some time in prison and occasionally makes amateur porn wouldn’t stick out all that much. So, do yourself a favor and stay out of places where that’s a bad thing and schedule a week down here to do your soul some good.
OK?
