Michael Jackson

Even though Michael Jackson was a weirdo, it is sad that he died yesterday. Earlier in the week Ed McMahon died and Farrah Fawcett died yesterday from cancer. Sad news all around and right now the only thing people are talking about is Michael Jackson dying. Clearly he was a music icon and his death is so shocking. I'll admit I didn't even mention Ed McMahon dying and I briefly talked about Farrah dying but of course the main topic this morning has been about Michael Jackson dying. But I'm not the only one talking about him. When I went online this morning to look for news, every site is talking about Michael Jackson and remembering the king of pop. The TV stations are also talking about his life and career. So will they pay tribute to Farrah? I guess in the meantime we can remember Michael Jackson and dance to Thriller all day.

Kid Goes Crazy

There was this really funny video online this morning about a kid who goes crazy after his mom cancels his world of warcraft subscription! The kid is clearly disturbed and is not happy with his mom. Check out the video.

Jon & Kate Gosselin Are Separating

The big announcement on Jon and Kate Plus 8 was that the couple was separating. I don't think it comes as a surprise to anyone who has been following their story. I didn't watch the show last night, but I bet they had really good ratings. It's sad because after they made the announcement they said that the should would continue. Kate stays in the house with the kids and she will leave the house when Jon comes to visit. I feel sorry for the kids because now the show will be focused on how they deal with the situation. I think Jon and Kate are both selfish and they should walk away from the show and work on their problems. Then again, what else would we talk about?

Jon & Kate Plus 8 Big Announcement

On Monday's episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8 there is going to be a big announcement. I'm sure they're going to let everyone know that they are separating and getting a divorce. Something that should have been done a long time ago in my opinion. However, is it a ploy to get people to tune in watch? Maybe there won't even be a big announcement. It's a good way to get people to talk about the show. They're doing something right. I'm even talking about it and posting it on a blog! I've posted a promo for the upcoming episode below.

Heidi and Spencer

I think everyone can say that they think Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are really annoying. The two were ridiculous on I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, and one minute wanted to be off the show and the next they wanted to go back on the show. They came across has snotty brats who think way too highly of themselves. It's funny because Al Roker even drilled them on The Today Show and asked them what their deal was. They got really defensive and later complained on Ryan Seacrest's radio show. The clip from Al Roker is really funny and we've posted it below. Enjoy!

David Letterman vs. Sarah Palin

David Letterman did a top 10 features list the other day and it was about Sarah Palin. A few things he mentioned in the top 10 were she bought makeup at Bloomingdale's to update her slutty flight attendant look. Another joke he did was that during the seventh inning at a Yankees game, Palin's daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez. Obviously the Palin family was not happy about his jokes. Sarah and her husband both said the comments were despicable. Letterman apologized and told them they could be guests on his show and then Palins said no thank you. Letterman joked last night that things were fine between him and Sarah Palin after she offered to take him hunting. But she is still fuming. Do you think he was too harsh? We've posted the video below.

Another Cool Job Opening

We talked this morning about a job opening at Murphy-Goode Winery in California. You would get paid $10,000 a month to drink wine and blog about it! The job would be for six months and you would have a furnished place to live. You have to submit a 60 second video telling them why you would be good for the job. The description says you should be a people person who can speak to colleagues, customers and media. Not a bad job to have to taste and help make wine and write about it online. The application deadline is June 19th. If you want more information check out

Graduation Time

It's the end of the school year which means graduation parties have started. Graduation is a big deal but do you go all out for the event? Would you have a huge party? Would you buy your child something really expensive? Maybe a car as a gift? Or even send them on a trip? Sean and I both remember having low key parties with friends and family. Things seem to be different in this day in age. Do you have any thoughts?

Heidi Montag & Spencer Pratt

Now that our regular shows are in re-run mode, it's all about reality TV this summer. I haven't seen the show I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, however I think my two new people I can't stand are Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag. I almost think they are more annoying and ridiculous than Octomom! Speidi quit the show and then came back. Now the other cast members have to agree to let them back on. Spencer actually said the other night that he was the most famous celebrity in the world. I mean seriously does he really think that. Him and his wife ripped on the other celebrities saying they couldn't hang out with these people. No offense Spencer but you are not someone that I consider a celebrity at all. The Hills isn't exactly a stellar show by any means! It should be interesting to see what happens with the show. Maybe I will actually have to watch it. Below is a clip from it. Enjoy it!

Men Gossip More Than Women

It's a proven fact that men gossip more than women! The Social Issues Research Center did a study with cell phones and found that 33% of men gossip every day or almost every day, compared with 26% of women. It also said that men spend much more time than women talking about themselves. Erin of course said she agrees with this and said that I gossip. I do not like to gossip but sometimes I am curious. Just because I'm always asking Erin who she is talking to and what they're talking about, it does not mean I gossip! Erin said she knows a lot of guys who gossip and who have to know everything that is going on. We had people call in this morning to share their opinion on it. Do you think men really gossip more than women?

Why is it still cold?

It's June 1st and I really wonder when it will be warm. A few weeks ago the weather was perfect and now it's cold again. I am ready to bbq, go swimming and not have to wear long sleeve shirts and pants every day! This week it looks like we're going to have rain and temperatures in the 60's and I'm not sure when it will be nice again. Maybe by July the weather will be better?
