COED Music: Cloud Cult - “Everybody Here is a Cloud”

Cloud Cult is a breaking band out of Minnesota that take their belief of enviromental protection to the extreme - “They tour in a biodiesel van, record in a geothermal-powered studio and even printed their liner notes on recycled paper with nontoxic vegetable oils.” [RS]
Where as this tree hugging attitude could overshadow a lesser [...]

ABC Outs Blogger/Prostitute “Debauchette”; Mom Finds Out Daughter’s Secret Life

I’m convinced that prostitutes and bloggers make up half the world’s population.
With sex scandal upon sex scandal being covered by every facet of the media, it’s no surprise to see even the most private of prostitutes being outed…wait, did I say “private”? I meant “attention-seeking.”
I’m not trying to be unfair, but when you’re a [...]

Wii Pole Dancing Game in the Works?

Everybody and their mother knows that Wii loves mothers (families in general, but they love moms a lot), from the perpetually PG vibes of their first-party games, to the undercurrent of low quality kiddie titles that would weigh down their entire library if anyone ever took notice.
While I’m in the camp that thinks Nintendo [...]

Real World Dailies: MTV’s Novel Way to Whore out (Attention) Whores

Our pals at Best Week Ever hyped us to Real World Dailies, which is essentially a digital dump to store all odds and sods from the unfortunately deathless show. Wait, did I say odds and sods? I meant TOPLESS hot babes. You hear that, fellas?? BOOBS. Yeeeeeaaaaaah!!!!!
Man…I can feel my IQ diving lower and lower [...]

Gisele Bundchen to Play Female Lead in Austin Powers 4?

Nearing the end of the blogging shift today, I was hoping for one more buzzworthy, worthwhile story…then Gisele Bundchen gets offered the female lead for a new Austin Power’s flick, which seems as important as anything happening in the news right now…right?
First off, I wasn’t aware the Austin Powers‘ franchise was still relevant, let alone [...]

Strenuous Work Conditions Treat People Like Hens

No, the title isn’t the name of Sufjan Stevens’ latest ditty (though it could’ve been, wordy little smug bastard). London based US Design Studio compared the grind of being your average 9-to-5 worker with the linear lifestyle of battery-farmed hens.
Basically, the design studio packaged humans like hens in a supermarket. It’s all real cool with [...]

“Fanboys” Fight the Good Fight

Fanboys tells the story of four friends determined to break into George Lucas’ Skywalker Ranch in hopes of watching Star Wars: The Phantom Menace before it’s released in theaters. Along the way, one of the friends gets sick - terminally sick. It’s a sobering truth in the midst of a silly road trip - so [...]

Mojo Makes Music Sharing Easier Than Ever

Seeing that P2P and BitTorrent sites are under fire these days, I suggest going the legal route when acquiring music, like ‘borrowing’ it from friends!
Share any song in your iTunes library and download any song from your friends’ iTunes libraries over the internet with freeware application Mojo.
When downloaded, Mojo allows access to any iTunes shared [...]

Kermit is the “Spokesfrog” for Supreme?

Remember the Muppet revival in the mid 90s? Of course you do.
Parody shirts sporting Kermit and friends were all the rage in the 90s, along with lesser attempts by the Looney Tunes (I think people still wear both in certain parts of the country…). Now, our Favorite Frog has once again entered the world [...]

Dr. Jack Kevorkian Running For Congress

This is too good to be true.
From The AP:
Assisted suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian plans to run for Congress, complicating a Michigan race that is expected to be among the most competitive in the nation.
The so-called “Dr. Death,” who was released from prison last year and remains on parole, will run as a candidate with no [...]
