To post anything negative about the incoming President is not going to be popular on the interwebs. And even though it isn’t necessarily negative, it is bringing up the fact that politics blows. For example, during the campaign Obama ripped Hillary a new one for her foreign policy background. He pointed out early support of the Iraq war as evidence of her questionable judgment. Now comes word that he’s considering her for Secretary of State? I guess we’re just supposed to forget all of the other stuff. Of course, you won’t find the Obama News Network (CONN)stating this fact. [NEWSDAY]

I have a BlackBerry Curve and my two teens have the new Google G1 phone from T-Mobile. What the hell does that say about me? Probably that I’m throwing the bad economy into the wind! At any rate, since getting a BlackBerry I am no longer tied to my computer. I can easily manage all my email accounts, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, and instant message with a very easy QWERTY keyboard. Time management is more important to me than being in fashion or having the latest gadget.

How about you guys? What phone do you have and why did you pick it? Be honest … did fashion or status have ANYTHING to do with the phone you picked? Post your comments! [BOSTON GLOBE]

Monkey Plays With Tourists in Roatan

Do we have any fans of Rock Band? Or course we do. Just announced Rock Band 2! The details as we have it so far is there will be a new guitar (as seen here) as well as “Quieter, more realistic, and more reliable instruments,” according to Harmonix. They continue “We’re also actively welcoming new peripheral makers to make instruments for our game. Just like real instruments, we want players to be able to choose what instruments they use…” As far as backward compatibility, all your original Rock Band tracks will work with RB2, and any future tracks will work with both versions. More information will be forthcoming when RB2 is officially revealed at E3 in July. Stay tuned.

It appears that Megan Fox may be a little more insecure with herself than we previously thought. You would think that being FHM’s Hottest Woman of 2008 would put your mind at ease against the competition. Megan is worried about something and she’s going to make sure that she stays in the spotlight when it comes to the new Transformers 2 movie sequel.
You see, Megan attended the casting call with the director for the upcoming Transformers 2 movie and REJECTED any brunette actresses that came in to try out! What a bitch!

“Megan is definitely the star of the sequel, and she wants to keep it that way. It’s fine with her if there are hot blondes in the film, but she’s made it clear that she doesn’t want any brunettes.”

The pictures included are from the Transformers 2 movie set … enjoy!

I’m gonna be honest with ya - I am not a fan of Drew Carey. Never got into any of his standups, TV shows, or Cleveland for that matter. As a matter of fact, Drew Carey on ‘The Price Is Right’ is just anther example of CBS debacle programming. Granted, no one could ever replace Bob Barker, but Drew Carey fails to deliver even a fraction of fun for a game show. However, Drew Carey did score some points in my cold heart the other day! Drew ordered pizza from Antonio’s in Ohio and had them shipped via UPS all the way to Los Angeles for the Saturday season finale of ‘The Price Is Right’. 45 pizza pies for his studio audience at a cost of $450 from Antonio’s. Obviously, this doesn’t include the UPS shipping costs! Way to go Drew, bringing a taste of home to your audience - awesome!! [Source]

There are only two reasons that anyone ever puts themselves or their loved ones on reality TV, 1) money and 2) fame. That’s it. Sometimes one of those is more important to the other. Why Hulk Hogan agreed to have his family followed around by cameras for Hogan Knows Best is probably a combination of the two – his family could use the money, and his kids probably wanted to be famous. Now, in an interview with People Magazine, Hulk Hogan has admitted that maybe having cameras invade the Hogan’s home may have been a bad idea and perhaps led to the divorce between him and his ex-wife Linda Hogan. “I just think the reality show amplified the problems that were already there,” said The Hulkster. In the interview, Hulk also expresses his continued love for Linda, his relationship with Brooke and Nick’s time in jail.

Come on Hulkster! The cameras didn’t do anything to your marriage. Sure, it may have amplified some of your shit, but the reality is that your steroids have distorted your values. First, you find no problem with putting oil on your daughter’s ass … in public! I mean seriously, do you REALLY need to put oil that close to her queefer? She can reach her own ass to put that oil on. MOST NORMAL PEOPLE only ask for assistance in putting suntan lotion on their BACKS! Secondly, Hulk was in attendence at Brooke’s photoshoot for Maxim Magazine (seen below). It was his idea for her to undo her pants to make it more sexy? Gee, I guess we are now that shallow that we have to sell sex through your own daughter in order to make money and for the sake of marketing. You’re a sick f@#$ Hulk Hogan.

FROM OUR MESSAGE BOARD: Chase is a lil cat who sadly was in an accident at 4 weeks old, which left him HORRIBLY disfigured. His owner claims that he is in no pain, which is good, if not surprising… as Chase doesn’t have a FACE. Actually, let me personally edit that statement: He has a face… there’s just no fur on it. Or, what’s the word for that stuff that keeps all your organs in place? Skin? Yeah, skin. He has no skin on it. Here he is, with a thoughtful black circle over his face. Click on the picture if you want to see Chase - Remember, you clicked on it!

Called simply “The Burger,” this Wagyu Beef, white truffles and Iranian saffron bun burger is slated to enter the Guinness Book of World Records as the most expensive burger of all time, retailing at a UK Burger King for a hefty £95 (which is what, like, $600 American?) Is “Most Expensive Burger” really more of an “accomplishment” than it is an “arbitrary decision?” What is the friggin’ point? Marketing. So stupid blogs like Rockland USA will post the stupid picture and talk about it thus spreading the word of our Lord Burger King all over the world. So is McDonald’s going to take their Big Mac and lace it with edible gold leaf lettuce and charge $10,000? Will Five Guys just set the price of a triple burger to $1 billion? Stupid bullshit marketing. And we continue to fall for this corporate America crap. Why?
