More Than a Game

For some reason I wasn't aware that LBJ had a movie coming out, but after watching the trailer it has become very clear that every basketball fan in the world will watch the development of one of the most dominant players ever on the big screen.

When Its All Good

Do you ever get in the mood in which every song you hear is good?  Each song that shuffle offers you, you enjoy it, are enthused by it, and embrace it fully regardless whether it is in fact a quality song.  Well as you might guess by the video I chose, yesterday I hit one of those "it's all good" spell.  Enjoy!

P.S. I wish I was endowed with the rhythmical gift of dance to the same degree as this fellow. Oh how my life would be so different! If only... if only....

P.P.S. No this is not on my iPod, let's be real here.

A Sincere Request

When you get on a plane, sit down, fasten your safety belt, pay attention to the flight attendant's directions, do whatever you do.  Then once airborne, when you decide it is time to recline, take a look over your shoulder.  If the person sitting behind you appears to be 6'5" or over, please refrain from reclining.  If you are unsure whether or not the passenger behind you is 6'5" or over, look at his or her knees.  If the knees are in contact with your seat before reclining, please refrain from reclining further, because if you do, you will be selfishly gaining a few inches of comfort for yourself while crushing the patellas of the lengthy traveler to your rear.  One flight will be made just mildly more comfortable, while one flight will be turned into a painful game of "how long should I wait to ask this rude space hoarder to move forward?"

Play Around Some

"I am not sure what this is, but this is fun to play around with."  Of the myriad things which can be spoken of with that quote, this keyboard deserves to be on the list.  Try playing around with it, but beware of the subliminal images it imposes on you!  Haha, you might want to play with your eyes closed.

SNL Resurgence?

Behold: Saturday Night Live is back!  I don't mean back in the Michael Jackson "someone put me in front of this microphone in order to capitalize on my last hurrah" connotation.  I claim that it is renewed, revitalized, reinvigorated, re...uh...well lets just say its funny again.  

Inspiring my epiphany was the most recent episode, starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.  It comes highly recommended by yours truly.  Every sketch drew at least a chuckle except for the "Cathy & Jessica Rabbit" and "Activia Commercial" (Only two flops out of 12 is really good).  Click here to watch it on hulu.com.  If you only watch three, go with "The Rock Obama," "Geithner Cold Open," and "Update: Jon Bovi" or "Hawaiian Hotel" (sorry I guess this is four).  Also a pleasant surprise was the performance of musical guest Ray LaMontagne.  The man has some soul, so much in fact, that I bought "You Are the Best Thing" on iTunes.

The ebb and flow of funny on the show is a natural product of unknowns becoming popular, becoming stars, leaving for movies and then being replaced by unknowns.  After a lull, the current cast is now ripe for enjoyment.  Andy Samberg, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader and Will Forte have all stepped their games up while developing their own niches.  Justin Timberlake should probably be thrown on the list because he makes an appearance just about every other week. Even Keenan Thompson has produced giggle-worthy segments.

What used to be "surely not lovable" has returned to some semblance of its old form.  Check Saturday Night Live out on NBC at 11:30, or like I do, the next morning on hulu.com.

Lil' Wayne - Prom Queen Video

While I realize that not everyone has backed Weezy's decision to release Prom Queen (coughCTAWcough)... I'm pretty sure the video will enlighten the lost souls of those who aren't supporting the rapper turned rockstar. 

The Quest for G

The illustrious quest for G is undertaken by a star-studded band led by King Garnett.  Included in the group is one Alicia Sacramone.  Surreal.
