CC Staff Rant: Fireworks and Feeling Guilty

Have you cracked out the hot dogs yet? The chips? The sparklers that you fully intend to try and burn your friends with? Well, us too. July 4th — even if you do nothing but stare at a grill for three hours or eat coleslaw with your fingers while watching fireworks on TV — is a day that just yells celebration. It’s summer. It’s a long weekend. Watermelon is in abundance…what isn’t there to love?

Well, apparently, one of your …

Don’t Worry: This Bra Has Only 9 Grams of Carbs

Feast your eyes on the wonderful, delightful fashion invention entitled the Naughty Candy Bra:

The best part about this sweet addition to your wardrobe is that the nutrition information is listed as below:

Only 40 calories
No fat or sodium
Only 9g of carbs and 9g of sugars
Colors may vary

CC Staff Rant: It’s Not A Party Until You Break Out The Franzia

Here at CC, we’re always looking for new and exciting ways to party. Especially when it comes to the 4th of July and alcoholic drinks associated with the holiday. The only thing is, one of your editors spent 25 years being completely unaware of the tepid, headache-inducing splendor that is Franzia.

Your First Look at ‘Quantum of Solace’ — and Craig Abs

James Bond. I used to not care. Then Daniel Craig took over. And I cared.

Forget that the title of the second installment of the updated Bond franchise makes little to no sense (at least to people like me), and mark your calendars for October 31, 2008 — the date when Quantum of Solace premieres (seriously..I wikipediaed “quantum” and it has something to do with energy and momentum and photons…so like, the “indivisible entity of a quantity of solace”?).

Anyhoo, …

Vanity Fair Thinks “Hollywood’s Next Wave” Is All White

Vanity Fair recently came out with “Hollywood’s Next Wave” of teen superstars, and besides the fact that at 25 I already feel too old to know who half of the kids are (25!

What To Get The Grandma Who Has Everything

Grandmas. It’s hard to figure out what they want for their birthdays. Do they want slippers? Humidifiers? Canes? Or maybe, actually, they want something a little racier.

Whether she wanted it or not, this Grandma got something rather unusual for her b-day.

Reason #4873 to be Afraid of Roller Coasters

I’m not the biggest fan of roller coasters. Something about the feeling that my stomach is about to shove its way into my throat is just really off-putting. Plus, remember that story about Fabio getting slammed in the face by a bird? I mean, it could happen to any one of us.

Since I’m already iffy about the whole thing, it’s not like I need another reason to be freaked out by these fear contraptions. But this story is …
