The Kiss That Cursed Britney Spears

Imagine a day without a bumbling Britney headline. Sounds like a bit of heaven, amiright? Well today is not that day I am sad to say. As I was scanning the web this morning for a juicy little nugget -0-info, I came across a pretty good argument on bumpshack.com that the recent rebellious rehab-er’s plunge from grace all began with a little kiss. Have a looksee.

Got a Secret?

christian.jpgCheating on your boyfriend with his best friend and the secret has your stomach gurgling-a-fire? Or better yet, do you just get off on listening to other people’s closet-ed stories of deception? Well then Girl, do I have a website for you.

PostSecret.blogspot.com is the most brilliant site I have ever seen, EVER! Here’s the premise:

A bunch of average nobodies anonymously write their own secrets down on a postcard and mail them to a blogsite to post. That’s it. Nothing more. Nothing less. Just secret after secret. Lie after lie. It is absolutely gorgeous. Really.

Yeah, yeah, I know you must think I am an incredibly shallow and morbid person- And maybe your right, but it takes one to know one, and I guarantee once you go there, you will be there for a while.

Dare ya.


The Best Would-Be Commencement Address

As graduation time for many college seniors is looming in the distance, it’s important to remember the wise words of those that have gone before us. The most entertaining and witty of those was a 1997 column in the Chicago Tribune that was published as the author’s own version of a commencement address. It skips all of the b.s. of typical speeches and details why we should simply enjoy our lives right now! The column became famous and I always read it when I need a little boost. Just a little taste…

“Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees. You’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t. Maybe you’ll have children, maybe you won’t. Maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else’s…

Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.”

YouTube Video of The Day: Singing Student Pranks Lecture

I love Broadway musicals-Rent, Mamma Mia, Chicago, I can go on and on. However, this type of entertainment during a lecture might be a bit distracting to me. And I definitely would not have the chutzpah to get up a start sing ABBA classics in middle of my professor’s spiel. As I wasted sometime on YouTube today, I found this video.
