Oh, December, how I love thee. For this is the one time a year when HBO shows become affordable to real human beings. Here's how it works: once an HBO show has been on TV for roughly a year, the network will release a ridiculously overpriced, uselessly ornate DVD of the season to us struggling masses who won't pony up $20 a month for the two or three hours a week we'd actually watch the damn ch

Last night I saw a movie I hadn't seen in decades: "Airport." When I was a child, I loved this movie. I loved the book, I loved all the sequels, and I was a total airplane disaster junkie. Ironically, I also thought I wanted to be a pilot when I grew up. I had a poster on my bedroom wall that was a photo of the inside of a 747 cockpit. I used to stare at all the buttons, wondering what they were f

Today I thought about how much of a product junkie I am. Almost every time I go somewhere, I have to buy some type of beauty product, whether it to be a lip gloss, eyeshadow or cosmetic tools.

No I am not talking about base jumpers, bungee jumpers, and all those other crazy sports that people do. I am talking about adrenaline addicted people around us, at work, in the coffee shop, maybe sleeping next to you. I am talking about people with over active adrenal glands.

And when I finally got my hands on one of these things, it was pure pleasure. In fact, I couldn’t wait to

We all agree that Katie-Price is a breast augmentation junkie with various upgrades and downsizes to her credit. Following her is Jodie Marsh who despite her one-time claims to preferring natural breasts went ahead and got herself a G-normous pair of breast implants. And from recent behavior, Bianca Gascoigne seems to have joined the ‘Boob Job Club’. The signs are certainly all there. These women are all British and television personalities in their own right. A craving for attention and making it to the headlines everyday is another thread that binds them. They have all had a breast augmentation to further their careers and till date Katie-Price and Bianca have not been satisfied with their respective breast implants. For all you know it may just be a matter of time till when

Junkie XL's new full-length artist album 'Booming Back At You' was released today on Nettwerk Records. The album consists of 12 tracks that fit nicely in the current electro sound.The album starts off with "Booming Right At You", a funky electro house track that includes a sample from Stetsasonic and reminds me of the Freestylers.Next up is "Cities In Dust" featuring vocals from Lauren Rocket. This song was originally written and performed by Siouxsie & The Banshees. Junkie XL's take is full on electro with a punk / rock edge to it. I think people that like Chicks on Speed will really dig this song. See the end of this post for a couple of videos of Junkie XL working on remixes of this song.The fourth song is called "Stratosphere". It is an instrumental track, that has a nice electro

The NY Times had an interesting article yesterday, Friends Say Drugs Played Only Bit Part for Obama, which contained this: In more than three dozen interviews, friends, classmates and mentors from his high school and Occidental recalled Mr. Obama as being grounded, motivated and poised, someone who did not appear to be grappling with any drug problems and seemed to dabble only with marijuana.The article ended with this quote, from an Obama college friend, “I would never say that he was a druggie, and there were plenty there,” she said. “He was too cool for all that.”Talk about racism!George W. Bush was long rumored to have been more than a casual user of cocaine and had battles with alcohol, but I don’t recall any article being written that talked about interviewing more than 3

If you ever want a really good pedicure, go to a very upscale spa in your area. They are much cleaner than the usual cheesy nail place around the corner.You know the place. A land where quick dry only costs a dollar and somehow you leave paying $70 dollars when you only intended to spend 10. You gotta watch out for these people. Most of them speak no English and barely sanitize the cuticle cutters. Once my mother told me she saw someone folding the dirty wet towels used to wipe feet of and putting them back in the "hot towel cabbie". Lovely.I too used to go to these places until I got the warts (on my feet). If you have ever gotten warts on your feet you know how painful they can be. I got 18 on one foot and 5 on the other. It was an infestation that took more than 6 months to resolve.Now

"Childhood is what you spend the REST of your life trying to overcome."-- from the movie Hope Floats An adult's childhood usually keeps flashing before his/her mind's eye. As years go by, you can't help but reaching out to the child you used to be. It is inescapable.. we carry our childhoods with us to the grave. Thinking about it, I find the above quote to be the truest thing ever said about childhood. Growing up in the third world is not exactly happy. Being a female child in a conservative society sets limits to how childish you are allowed to be. Our generation joins the same pool of memories. There was not much variety then. We all watched the same TV channels (only 2 back then). We all went to Alexandria for summer vacations. We all went to governmental or old private schools. We all saw the Egyptian national team playing in the World Cup when "heaven's justice found its way to Balermo Stadium."Parents in the third world take it for granted that kids will find their way.

Fellow author Greg Cangialosi shot a video with me at the New, New Internet conference.  Be sure to check out Greg’s book on podcasting.  This is an excellent resource. So, the video — hosted at The Trend Junkie – discussed the adoption of social media in the local DC/VA market, federal social media, client engagement strategies including editorial missions for social media and blogger relations, as well as Now Is Gone.  Check it out. In addition to Greg’s video, lots of hot content on Now Is Gone in the past 48 hours: Brian Solis and I published our second Now Is Gone podcast, “Participation is Marketing.”  This was a particularly strong podcast, so be sure to listen. Plus, more on social media Hustle 2.0: Never Rest on Your Laurels… If you rest on your laurels and provide less in frequency and quality then you will start losing traction.

I've just checked my blog just now and found out someone, who puts a screen name as Jakarta Casual, has left a comment about my writing in early October. The writing was talking about football, about how I never understand why men in general are so crazy about this game, and about me offering a solution for a truce between men and his girl. When men think that shoes and handbags are stupid hobby and boring, so do I think about football in general.Judging by his blog it seems like he's a true believer of football or anything to do with it, and I apparently touched his soft spots and he counter-wrote my writing. I think it's hilarious, and I quote verbatim here (he quoted my 8 rules and left comments on each):Tuesday, October 16, 2007 A woman trying to get her head round football!This post made me smile.

"I'd like to get some data on whether it actually works before I made a final judgment on it ... but they are working with desperate and unconventional people." Queensland's Premier Anna Bligh is talking about a new programme that this mob have come up with called the "Mixup project" ... And Liberal Member for Currumbin Jan Stuckey has this to say about it... "Queensland Health, by funding this program, is condoning practices of drug addicts and teaching them how to instruct others by offering cash incentives - this left-wing philosophy is grossly irresponsible." So what's this "Mixup" business all about then? WARNING: Graphic displays of drug use and harsh language follows... (more...)

Often compared to the druggy psychedelic pop of the Velvet Underground, the Dandy Warhols do possess more than just a passing resemblance to Lou Reed and company at times, but elements of such modern rockers as Love and Rockets and Ride can be detected in their sound as well. Formed in Portland, OR, during 1994, the Dandy Warhols consist of members Courtney Taylor (vocals, guitar), Zia McCabe (keyboards), Peter Holmstrom (guitar), and Eric Hedford (drums), who signed on with the independent label Tim/Kerr shortly after their formation. In 1995 came the release of the quartet's debut release, Dandy's Rule OK?, and while other rock bands may be a bit hesitant to spell out their influences, the Dandy Warhols decided to openly advertise it, as the album contained such song titles as "Lou Weed" and "Ride." Capitol Records signed the group the same year, but the Dandy's new label rejected a second album they submitted (claiming it didn't have any "hits"). Disappointed but undeterred, the

We’re not entirely sure why we’ve been on a rampage against these junkie idiots that continue to plague Hollywood, but when one tries to take themselves out it almost seems like they’re doing the world a favor. Owen Wilson is the latest in an extremely long list of people that we were initially empathetic towards but are now turning the cold shoulder to. From NYPost: Wilson was hooked on heroin and cocaine, struggling with depression and hanging out with the wrong crowd in the months before his attempted suicide, according to a bombshell new report. Wilson’s drug use was so frequent, it was even the cause of his Memorial Day breakup with Kate Hudson. And his friends are placing the blame squarely on Wilson’s newfound best buddy, British actor Steve Coogan, with whom he starred in several films, according to exclusive interviews in US Weekly magazine. “I went through it with Steve,” Coogan’s former girlfriend, rocker Courtney Love, t

Rachael Mills rocks.Miss Mills was the 2002 Libertarian candidate for the House of Representatives in North Carolina. She is a thirty-two year old small town Southern girl who likes ballroom dancing, history, dogs, fruity martinis, Sarah Silverman, marijuana and Ron Paul. Rachael Mills is a cute, intelligent girl who loves her country, and happens to agree with me on a bunch of stuff. I think I'm in love. But sigh--she is straight (though "pinups" are listed as an interest, which is--well, interesting).Although I am certain she would have eventually made the blog anyway, today Rachael is featured because she is a self-professed Ron Paul junkie:At this time she is working on the first TV commercials for Dr. Paul. They will air on the The Daily Show in the DC area. The idea is to try and get the attention of the mainstream political reporters, who have been nice enough to choose the top tier presidential candidates for us. Unfortunately the two who have the most to offer (Mike Gravel a
