The Cheesecake is Rich

(Same rules as the 1995 post below, just with slightly less sucky music) 1. Tonight’s The Night, Rod Stewart  (creepy video and I have trouble believing Rod Stewart was ever sexy) 2. I Just Want To Be Your Everything, Andy Gibb 3. Best Of My Love, Emotions 4. Love Theme From “A Star Is Born”, [...]

So, it’s nearly midnight KL time, I can’t sleep due to somebody’s coughing (actually, due to both Gene and my coughing together) and yet, I can’t shiv the cause of this insomnia. Since I can nap tomorrow and Gene can’t, here is a very interesting meme-whatchamacallit that I stole from another site: 1) Go to [...]

So I’m watching the coverage of Hurricane Gustav on CNN. Why do the anchors keep acting surprised when the journalists actually in New Orleans (where the winds are currently 100+ MPH, I think) are unable to be heard?? Geeeez. “Bob, if you can hear me, go inside!” and my favorite “Hey, can you go outside [...]

So I’m sitting here at Cheesecake City International Airport n’ Bait Shop (motto: Now with more Starbucks!), once again lovin’ the free wi-fi. I’m supposed to do something of value, but I really only have eyes for my two square inches of the internet, so, there you go. My flight leaves in (oh geez) two [...]

So, Gene is listening to an Ann Coulter book on the iPod and it’s getting a little tense. Eek! But now we are home and watching 30 Rock (starring Alec Baldwin) from Thursday and now, all is right in the world. That said, I did learn one interesting thing from the book. Apparently Barack Obama [...]

How did I not figure out there’s not a version of MS Publisher for the Mac? Fuckity. Granted, I never do anything brainy in Publisher (purely an ego thing) but the files don’t even open in Pages (the Mac version of Word). Crrrrrrap.

I am not missing a THING when it comes to not knowing anything about new music. I’ve had Sirius: Pulse (The 90s and Now!) on most of the afternoon. It seems to be the closest to the Sirius: Soccer Mom Music! channel I had hoped for (well, there’s one closer but it is only playing [...]

Ugh. It’s happened. I’ve become one of THOSE people. Those people who have NO CLUE about who a current song is by. It used to be that I could name the artist, song title, album title and in some cases record label of every video on VH-1. But now I only know songs if they’ve [...]

Does anyone know why I have Video Killed the Radio Star stuck in my head? And the worst part is that that is the part I have stuck in my head – an endless loop of “Video killed the radio star! Video killed the radio STAR!” (the second “star” is in caps because in my [...]
