Boys Will Be Girls & Girls Will Be Boys

Some of the best lines but I do believe that guys don't sit aroound and talk about their chicks as much as dipicted.
They simply drink, burp, fart, scratch and watch the game......nothing else matters.

Lady Gaga May Sing James Bond Theme

Lady Gaga may be singing the film's next theme song.
The eccentric singer, who's devotion to drama can not be denied, has beaten off previous contenders like Amy Winehouse - who blew her chance to sing in Quantum of Solace due to her epic summer of madness.

But Gaga's participation is not assured. The singer Michael Bubble is also contending to submit a demo this time. The best effort will get the gig.



There's plenty of time to get the tune right too because filming has been put back - partly due to the recession and partly to make the film 3D.

Until a title is decided for the next Bond movie, starring Daniel Craig, it's being referred to as Bond 23.

RIP: John Forsythe

John Forsythe, the handsome, smooth-voiced actor who made his fortune as the scheming oil tycoon in TV's "Dynasty" and the voice of the leader of "Charlie's Angels" has died after a yearlong battle with cancer. He was 92.

Forsythe died late Thursday at his home in Santa Ynez from complications of pneumonia, publicist Harlan Boll said Friday.

"He died as he lived his life, with dignity and grace," daughter Brooke Forsythe said.

Song Of The Day: Mountain Men By Crash Kings

No wonder I like this tune.....MTV has noted this song's many influences....comparing the lead vocals to those of The White Stripes, noting a "theatrical piano-driven back-up" reminiscent of Ben Folds, as well as an "epic guitar crunch a la Weezer emulating Queen."

Song Of The Day: Fool On The Hill By Paul McCartney

In keeping with April Fools Day.
The website Song Facts reveals.......Paul McCartney wrote this. It's about a man who is considered a fool by others, but whose foolish demeanor is actually an indication of wisdom. An event which prompted this song happened when Paul was walking his dog Martha, on Primrose Hill one morning. As he watched the sun rise, he noticed that Martha was missing. Paul turned around to look for his dog, and there a man stood, who appeared on the hill without making a sound. The gentleman was dressed respectably, in a belted raincoat. Paul knew this man had not been there seconds earlier as he had looked in that direction for Martha. Paul and the stranger exchanged a greeting, and this man then spoke of what a beautiful view it was from the top of this hill that overlooked London. Within a few seconds, Paul looked around again, and the man was gone. He had vanished as he had appeared. A friend of McCartney's, Alistair Taylor, was present with Paul during this strange incident, and wrote of this event in his book, Yesterday.

Both Paul and Alistair could not imagine what happened to this man. He had seemed to vanish in thin air. The nearest trees for cover were too far to reach by walking or running in a few seconds, and the crest of the hill was too far as well to reach in that short time. What made the experience even more mysterious, was that just before this man first appeared, Paul and Alistair were speaking to each other of the beauty they observed of the view towards London and the existence of God. Once back home, they spent the morning discussing what had happened, trying to make some sense of it. They both agreed that this was something others were infer occurred as a result of an "acid trip," but they both swore they had not taken or used any drugs.
