Rockstar Supernova

I love this show. First off, Dave Navarro is so hot.

Tommy Lee is hot.

Gilby Clarke is hot and the rockers are hot and talented.

What's not to like?

Right now my favorite is Dilana.

She is out of this world, even my mom digs her.

My second favorite is Lukas. He has a vulerability that comes out when he performs that makes him so enticing and both of them are unique.

In 2 weeks it will all be over and Supernova will have a lead singer. This is a concert I may actually buy tickets for!!!

Do you watch? Do you have a favorite rocker?

Ok, this Bites!!!

Size Doesn't Matter....does it?

Study: Polar Bear Genitals Are Shrinking
Friday, August 25, 2006

The polar ice cap may not be the only thing shrinking in the Arctic.
The genitals of polar bears in eastern Greenland are apparently dwindling in size due to industrial pollutants, a new study finds.
Scientists report that this shrinkage could, in the worst-case scenario, endanger polar bears on Greenland and elsewhere by spoiling their love lives and causing their numbers to peter out.
In fact, all marine mammals could be affected by pollutants, "especially the Arctic fox, killer whale and pilot whales," wildlife veterinarian and toxicologist Christian Sonne at the National Environmental Research Institute of Denmark told LiveScience.
Arctic animals' bodies, which store large amounts of fat, carry extremely high levels of contaminants. Polar bears from northernmost Norway, western Russia and eastern Greenland are among the most polluted animals in the Arctic, as they feast on ringed seals and bearded seals. The blubber of these seals accumulates high levels of organic pollutants loaded with halogens, such as chlorine. These organohalogens can act like hormones.


The researchers experienced harrowing times on their dog-sled expeditions into the wilds of Greenland to study polar bears.
"One evening a bear came just next to us in the night when we were doing the toilette," Sonne recalled. "They shot and it ran."
Another time, "we almost had to eat the dogs as we ran out of food and seals. It was cold sleeping in minus 50 degrees C [minus 58 Fahrenheit] in five weeks with no heater."
The adult polar bear testicles the researchers examined were on average roughly three inches across and 1.8 ounces in weight, although they dramatically enlarge during the height of sexual activity from January to July.

Their bacula, or penis bones, were on average nearly seven inches long. (Most male carnivores and rodents have bones in their penises.) The scientists found the higher the level of organohalogens in a polar bear, the smaller the testicles and baculum likely were. Ovary size and weight among females also decreased as organohalogen levels rose.
Slow to mate Polar bears have among the lowest reproductive rates for terrestrial mammals.
Reducing polar bear penis size would thus make sex less successful, upsetting naturally slow-to-grow polar bear numbers, the scientists say. Testicle and ovary shrinkage would upset polar bear reproduction too. Future research should examine the effects of low levels of organohalogen contamination, Sonne said.
"How long do we have to go down in exposure levels to obtain no-effect levels? Is it possible at all?" he explained. Sonne and his colleagues reported their findings online Aug. 16 on the Web site of the journal Environmental Science & Technology.

I really like this woman. I watch her shows, 30 Minute Meals and Tasty Travels and plan to watch her daytime show everytime I play hooky. She makes recipes that even I can do. She goes to locations I'd like to go to and is very entertaining.

I like her magazine and found a recipe I plan to try this week. It's a Tomato Blue Cheese Tart from the August/September issue....looks yummy.

But, I had no idea she could be such a hotty...check her out. Now I know why almost every guy I know digs her.

Popular Film Sidekick, Bruno Kirby, Dead At 57
(CBS) HOLLYWOOD, Calif.

Actor Bruno Kirby, who appeared as the sidekick in films such as "When Harry Met Sally" and "City Slickers," has died of leukemia, according to the entertainment news show "Access Hollywood." The show reports on its Web site that Kirby, 57, died Monday in Los Angeles. Kirby was born in New York City Bruno Giovanni Quicaciolu, Jr. Kirby's other credits include "We're No Angels", "Good Morning, Vietnam", "Sleepers" and "Donnie Brasco".

I truly loved his work.

"So tell me, what did you use for protection, paper or plastic?"
"Let me get you hot Phil, I need a price check on register 9, I need a price."
"Shut up! Just shut up! He doesn't get it! He'll never get it! It's been 4 hours! The cows can tape something by now!"
"Marriages don't break up on account of infidelity. It's just a symptom that something else is wrong."
"You made a woman meow?"
"Sir, in my heart, I know I'm funny. "

We'll miss you Bruno!!!

Imposters Played at Fair

The band that headlined the Butte-Silver Bow Fair last weekend is accused of masquerading as the rock group Redbone, which released albums in the 1970s and is perhaps best known for the song "Come and Get Your Love."
The band at the fair performed under the name Redbone, but the real Redbone was playing in Wisconsin, said Ron Kurtz, Redbone's manager.
"I've been in the business for 40 years, and I've never ran into anything this blatant," Kurtz said Thursday from his office in Burbank, Calif. He said the fair board was conned.
Fair officials dealt with a man who identified himself as Denny Freeman and said he was a co-founding member of Redbone.
Pat Vegas, who founded Redbone with his brother, Lolly, in 1968, said he had not heard of Freeman.
The fair board is investigating and will consult the county attorney, Chairman Dave Palmer said.
"The whole thing was fishy from the start," Palmer told The Montana Standard. Only two performers showed up at the fair, he said, and they claimed other band members were missing because they were sick with mumps. Local musicians filled in.
Palmer and the manager of Redbone said they had been unable to contact Freeman.
"He's on dangerous waters, because he's messing with my name," Vegas said.
A call Saturday seeking information from Palmer, about payment for the band that played, was not returned immediately.

Um, ok so did everyone at the fair have a good time? Yes? then who gives a turkey, they only had one hit anyway...geez! Maybe the real band is pissed because the imposter band was better!

RIP Fred

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

LAW ENFORCEMENT: I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been "lost" and is not available.

MILITARY: I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam.

COLLEGE: I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. I was a cheerleader.

PAST WORK EXPERIENCE : I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our friends in the oil industry, including Enron CEO Ken Lay, I was elected governor of Texas.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS: I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history. With the help of my brother, the governor of Florida, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became President after losing by over 500,000 votes.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT: I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over one billion dollars per week. I spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues every month. I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, had a Chevron oil tanker named after her. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. President. I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S.history, Enron. My political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election decision. I have protected my friends at Enron and Halliburton against investigation or prosecution. More time and money was spent investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent investigating one of the biggest corporate rip-offs in history. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. I changed the U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any President in U.S. history. I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States government. I've broken more international treaties than any President in U.S. history. I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. I refused to allow inspectors access to U.S. "prisoners of war" detainees and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. I am the first President in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election). I set the record for fewest numbers of press conferences of any President since the advent of television. I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. After taking off the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security failure in U.S. history. I garnered the most sympathy for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S. the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history. I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people), shattering the record for protests against any person in the history of mankind. I am the first President in U.S. history to order an unprovoked, pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation. I did so against the will of the United Nations, the majority of U.S. citizens,and the world community. I have cut health care benefits for war veterans and support a cut in duty benefits for active duty troops and their families-in-wartime. In my State of the Union Address, I lied about our reasons for attacking Iraq and then blamed the lies on our British friends. I am the first President in history to have a majority of Europeans (71%) view my presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and security. I am supporting development of a nuclear "Tactical Bunker Buster," a WMD. I have so far failed to fulfill my pledge to bring Osama Bin Laden [sic] to justice.

RECORDS AND REFERENCES: All records of my tenure as governor of Texas are now in my father's library, sealed and unavailable for public view. All records of SEC investigations into my insider trading and my bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view. All records or minutes from meetings that I, or my Vice-President, attended regarding public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public review. I am a member of the Republican Party.

PLEASE CONSIDER MY EXPERIENCE WHEN VOTING IN THE 2006 MIDTERM ELECTIONS. PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERY VOTER YOU KNOW.

Here It Goes Again

Panama Rocks

Van Halen Tribute Band

Panama is a Van Halen Tribute band (old Van Halen, prior to Sammy) and their fun and quite good actually. They came to Crestline last night and put on a 2 hour concert for us and it was a blast. Not only do they sound like them, they take on the personalities of the rockers so you can imagine what that's like. Here's a link to their website, see if their coming to your town, or heck, hire them if you have a venue that needs a band, you won't be disappointed.

Ping Pong

Check out this little girl in yellow playing ping pong against 2 men. She is adorable and has quite a serve but watch her when she loses a point!

Mushrooms...friend and foe!

OMG...I can't remember when I felt this sick. First came the extreme stomach pains that lasted about 4 hours, then extreme nausea followed by the constant upchucks and then the trots. I haven't eaten anything since Wednesday night and it was zuchinni and mushrooms. I bought the package of mushrooms on Tuesday and Wednesday night I cooked them and they were great. However, they didn't look great but what do I know about mushrooms? They had these round dark indentions on them which I have since found out that was fungus. Fungus on my fungus...no biggie, right? WRONG...turns out it can and will give you a toxic bateria infection.

I'm going to attempt to eat toast today. Pray for me!

Missed Opportunities

Sigh! I always seem to be in the wrong place at the wrong time which means I miss golden opportunities, such as marrying the man of my dreams. Or should I say men of my dreams.

First off was Chris Robinson. No, not the rocker, a boy from 3rd grade, no pic available. I thought he was going to be the one but one day I told him a dirty joke and he said I was a sinner and was going to hell. No love connection there.

Second was Donnie Keene from junior high, here's his pic. Ok, it was the 70's, fooseball was in. I wanted to marry him. He had an ugly pair of green sneakers so I bought the same pair. Saved up for weeks, just so I could go up to him and say, "Hey, we have the same shoes" just to break the ice. I bought mine and wore them to school on monday. He wore blue ones. In fact he never wore the green ones again. He had a thing for 3 muskateers bars and he'd toss the wrappers on the ground. I would sneak up and retrieve them and put them in my bible. I collected 17 in all. At a party I finally had the nerve to go up to him and say hi. I then walked away and asked my friend Cyndy to go ask him if he liked me. He just thought of me as that "nice, fat girl". I cried for weeks.

Then I raised the bar and decided I was going to be Mrs. Peter Frampton. Yep, me. I had wall to wall Frampton posters. By today's standards, I would be known as a stalker. I would go to his concerts and wait for the moment when he'd look out into the audience, see me and shout out, "Hey, you! Come up here and marry me!" It never happened. Guess the lights blinded him and he couldn't see me.

Then I got married to a boy who followed me around a lot growing up. I loved him but there wasn't any passion so it didn't last, then I set my sights on the next husband...George Clooney. I'm finding it difficult to meet him in person so he can see that I am the woman for him but I won't give up hope. Perhaps I should camp out at his next premier!

In the meantime, I wonder if Donnie is still single. Maybe he's not as picky as he use to be.
