OK! Magazine - First for Celebrity News - Axl Rose... →
When I asked Axel for confirmation he said “She’s got eyes of the bluest skies As if they thought of rain I hate to look into those eyes And see an ounce of pain Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place Where as a child I’d hide And pray for the thunder And the rain To quietly pass me by”
Metallica inspired to give up cocaine by Oasis |... →
I’m kind of torn. I think Lars is one of the greatest drummers of all times but he’s also one of the biggest jerks of all time. Does one outweigh the other?

I really like Michael Ian Black’s blogs. I think you can really hear his voice in it. And inside of me. Ewww.
Hellboy Director Talks Gaming | Edge Online →
I’m not that big of a fan of his movies but this makes me like him more. Shadow of the Colossus and ICO are two of the greatest games ever made.

Every so often I’m going to have some secret celebrity gossip nuggets. I have a secret ( & sexy spy, rrrrrrrrr) at a big talent agency whose going to start feeding me some info. The first is for this movie. It’s going to star Kate Denning as the lead, Brittany Snow as Squeaky, Haley Webb as Sadoe and finally Nick Stahl are Charles Manson.
"Top Chef" Villain Cooked for DUI - TMZ.com →
It was hard to like him on Top Chef. Actually it was easy to hate him.Pretentious, annoying and one of the worst hair styles in the history of reality tv. I hope your inmates like your hair foam boy.

Thanks again Very Short List. These are amazing WWI propaganda posters. I wish our wars had such great artist propaganda.

20 Best Seasons of the Last 20 Years →
The actual shows on the list are good but the seasons they picked are just wrong. The Wire season 2? Are you joking? That was by far the worst season of the show.
Never Bet Against a Pro - Science News - Very... →
Very Short List is great but it doesn’t take a genius (I’m looking at you Aglioti) to know that free throws are mainly mental.

Umeboshi are pickled ume, sour Japanese fruits somewhere between plums and apricots. Umeboshi are often eaten for breakfast, or as a pickle-like side-dish with boxed lunches. They’re a common filling for onigiri (rice balls), a lunch staple. Umeboshi can be grated and mixed with soy sauce for dressing chicken or salad.

The only show I went to at the Palladium was Bad Religion a while ago.
Sky Sports | Milan confirm Senderos medical →
I don’t get it. In my mind Senderos is one of the worst defenders in the EPL and Milan are the most famous defensive team in history. He moves like a puppy whose feet are too big for his body. My father whose a die hard arsenal fan even thinks he sucks. He says he’ll play 89 min of amazing soccer and then give up an easy goal in the 90th.
Arctic Monkeys to record with Queens Of The Stone... →
I like Josh Homme a lot more in theory than in reality but this is good news. I bet it will still sound exactly the same but maybe it will have a cool edge.

I don’t like the olympics. Theres only a few sports I like but for the most part I don’t get why people are so into the olympics. When their on people go on and on about how great these sports are but the truth is if people actually cared about them they’d be on more often than one every four years. Anyways one way to get me to enjoy the olympics is to have more olympians...
