Since my birthday last year I have been begging for the Apple Tablet. It was the worst kept secret in the tech world and as I am a gadget junkie I HAD TO HAVE IT. Well yesterday Apple FINALLY introduced their ‘iPad’ (please, enough maxi pad jokes… even I am not doing them.). I kept up with the live blogging and then watched their product video. The only thing I have to say… WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT. I was SO SO SO excited for a revolutionary product and they came with a repurposed iPhone/iPod Touch. Don’t get me wrong, its a beautiful piece of equipment, and from watching their official video, but it doesn’t deliver to those who wanted something NEW, the “NEW CREATION” they were touting. I think part of it was alllllllll the rumors that have been surrounding it since last year, the fake mocks etc but, it’s safe to say I will PROBABLY not get this iteration of the product. Though who knows on that. I will say watching the video makes it seem MUCH cooler so who knows…
I am not going to lie. I am restless waiting for the big Apple event in 2 weeks where they have a new “product” unveiling. Everyone and their mother assumes it will be the longtime rumored tablet. There have been such a ridiculous amount of rumors, it’s hard to pretend it doesn’t exist but it’s also hard to pretend that it’s not out there! Well, Valleywag has taken things a step further by putting out a bounty for proof! It’s pretty insane and pretty HEFTY in the cash category, but I love that I am not the only one DYING for this.
Plenty of people consider American Idol to be a guilty pleasure. I am not one of those people. I am a proud American Idol lover. Last year I was bored during a show of songs I didn’t care about though, so I decided to “live blog” during the show. Well, to my surprise people were amused by this…even my HUMOR! Got me… I decided to keep it up and continue to live blog on American Idol and it actually started to draw in quite a bit of people from around the net, and even world! Hundreds of people were reading it. How the hell did that happen? While it wound down towards the end, I decided that since this is Simon Cowell’s last year on American Idol, it was probably the last year it will actually be relevant, so another year of live blogging it is. +Continue Reading
I was introduced to so many comedians this year, but Tucker Max’s book that was released in January of 2009 is definitely taking the award for best book of the year. They even made it into an indie movie, I haven’t seen it yet, but I am DYING to. If you have a sense of humor and don’t care about a guy admitting and describing his douche bag ways. READ THIS.
If you know me at all, you know that I have a healthy (unhealthy) obsession with one artist Alanis Morissette. Every album has something different to offer and has its own amazing charm. in 1998 Alanis’ international sophomore release ‘Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie’ was released after the insane pressure of following up the biggest selling debut album of all time. The album came at the height of an Alanis drought and as a 16 year old seemed to hit my own personal “emotional” roller coaster moments. Every song on this album was pure perfection. None of the songs really shined for a public single success, but the album sold pretty well though in no way matched its predecessor (though anyone who thought it could was fooling themselves).
This is one album where I find almost IMPOSSIBLE to pick a favorite song but here are my TOPS of the 17 track album: +Continue Reading
I was watching Sound of Music on TV and realized I thought it would be great to start putting together a list of things in my “classic’s” category, mostly for my own reference and anyone else that may be curious. Sound of Music is the first entry in the movie category, but I will round out tonight with a nice helping of media 
Well I have been trying to think of the best way to wrap up my favorite songs of 2009 and I know many of them probably didn’t even originate in 2009, so I used Last.fm to check out what I exactly listened to and here it is. The artists in the top 10 won’t surprise anyone but the #1 artist MIGHT…..

Today I got to pick up my new car, a 2010 Volkswagen CC which I love, such an amazing ride, very luxurious in and outside. EXTREMELY happy!!! WOO!
Hey AOL. What happened since I left. Things weren’t going too bad. You were taking strides on the look. Not fast enough mind you but not disasterous. Now today I wake up to THIS. THIS is your new branding/logo? Who on EARTH suggested this, and WHO could have POSSIBLY said “OOOH NICE, LET’S DO IT” and who let them do it?!?!?! Bad. F-. Way to screw the pooch on this one.
