Transformers, more than meets the eye!


Earlier this week, EW's Popwatch introduced "
Guess Who!" where they post an old photo of someone & readers get to submit their responses. Sort of like "Before they were stars" dealies. I saw this pic a day late & totally knew who it was. & boy did I ever laugh when I found out that I was right. Too funny.

Click here for the answer. Did you get it right?

Once a jackass, always a jackass

While I'm not a fanatical hockey fan, especially when the Canucks are on a frigging five game losing streak, I have much hatred for Gary Bettman. Hatred may be too strong of a word... how about disgust, repugnance, destestation, abhorrence... ;)

I'm definitely not a fan of Bettman's decision to have teams play other teams in their division 800x a year and meet their cross-country rivals once every three years. I get that travelling can be exhaustive, but once every three years? Could we at least have limited it down to once a year? Stupid...

So, the boys didn't do so well in the Olympics this year, or in other words, they sucked ass. While I don't think the press conference that Bettman held yesterday had anything to do w/ Canada or the US's poor showing, he did announce that while the NHL is committed to the 2010 Games in Vancouver, it's too early to speculate what their commitment will be afterwards.

I'm down w/ that, but what I'm not down w/ is the following comment:

But we are not extending the [Olympic] break. The Olympic schedule will have to adapt to us, not the other way around.
Hey jackass, I don't know if anyone has informed you, but you're not even close to being a God. Give me a break! Seriously.

She must be heartbroken!

</sarcasm>

To date, Michelle Williams of Brokeback Mountain fame has only been in 27 TV and movie productions. Prior to being in BM, she was most known as Jennifer Lindley on Dawson's Creek, the teen drama where everyone spoke like they were university professors and that everyone loved to hate in the late '90s - including myself.

It's funny now that we're only a couple of days before the Oscar Awards, her old school, Santa Fe Christian has come out swinging... disowning her due to her being involved in the year's biggest and most profound movie. Publicity stunt? Perhaps... Why have they chosen to make a brouhaha now? I mean, if we look at Michelle's career from a purely Christian "morals" standpnt - she's always made questionable career moves.

Dawson's Creek - portrayed a character who has premarital sex, is a single mother and whose best friend is gay.

Killing Mr. Griffin - based on the Lois Duncan book that I actually liked when I was younger. I mean, the title is pretty self-explanatory. Some students didn't mean to kill him, but they did... so of course they're covering it. Very ethical!

But I'm a Cheerleader - a movie about lesbian cheerleaders...

If These Walls Could Talk 2 - gay teen in the '70s...

For gawdsakes - Michelle had a child out of wedlock w/ Heath too.

My theory - Santa Fe Christian's enrolment #s are down & they are using this opportunity to criticize Michelle and attract other Christians who have the same belief...

I'm going to hell for making this commentary, aren't I? ;)

Gotta stop speed reading...

Because if you don't, headlines can take on a completely different meaning!

Example: http://www.cbc.ca/story/arts/national/2006/03/01/shooting-concert-kanye.html

Take the "s" off the first word & you'll fig out what it is that *I* read.

Wishful thinking

EW's Popwatch had initially noted that Britney was going to make a "major career announcement" this week. I was hoping that it would be some statement that she was going to rap on one of KFed's songs or she's making part two of the video where she drives a flying pink hummer or she's just quitting hte industry period. Alas, her "big" announcement was that she has no plans for the future...

That's a f*cking announcement? What a disappointment.
