I Kind of Want This Poster

Daniel Radcliffe must seriously be trying to get rid of his "good guy, I play every child's hero" image. Find raunchier pictures here.

Personally I think the above picture is an awesome concept. The other posters have a little too much happy trail for my liking. Not to mention, Daniel Redcliffe is 17 years old so every woman over the age of 18 has been having some naughty thoughts lately.

So there's been a lot of controversy over these posters for the upcoming West End production of Equus. And while I understand that many parents are outraged by Harry Potter posing half nude in promotional posters for the show...they have to understand that A. It's a play B. It's art and C. Harry Potter is a fictional character. Yes, I know Daniel Radcliffe is the only person in the world whose face is associated with Harry Potter but I seem to remember him half nude in The Goblet of Fire....or does that not count? Why, b/c he was taking a bath? Double Standards people. Just for the record...Harry Potter can get half naked in bath on a 60 foot screen in front of millions of people that is now on DVD to be viewed over and over but Daniel Radcliffe cannot strip down once a night for 16 weeks on a stage where at most like 60 people will see his nasties.

I majored in Theatre and I've been to a play that requires nudity. (been to, not been in!) A good director will stage it in such a way that at most only a handful of people will see the goods. (If any at all!)

I just don't understand why parents are freaking out. Were they planning on taking their kids to see Equus? B/c that's just stupid. A good parent would take their children to see a show based on material not b/c Harry Potter is in it.

I just get so frustrated by ignorant people.

Very Buzzworthy

It's no secret, I LOVE Rachel McAdams. It is also no secret that fiance LOVES Batman. Well there is a wonderful rumor floating around Hollywood at the moment. This rumor is that the McAdams is in talks to star in the next installment of the new Batman movies, The Dark Knight.

Rumor is she'll be taking over Katie Holmes' role (Thank God, I really hate Mrs. Crazy).

There is also a rumor floating around that she may even be playing the new Selena Kyle/Catwoman. Michelle Pfeiffer's shoes will be tough to fill but if anyone can do it...the McAdams can! Thanks to TheJay for pointing me in the direction of these rumors!

Side note...will someone please find out if they are planning on including Harley Quinn in any of these new Batman movies? Harley Quinn wasn't a character until Batman the Animated Series came out in 1992. The original Batman came out in 1989. So please Hollywood Batman people, please put Harley Quinn in your new franchise. She's the bestest character! Also wouldn't Scarlett Johansson make a kick ass Harley Quinn?

I Love Fat Cats.

This is the cutest cat in the world. I wish I could adopt him.




Sorry for the lack of postage yesterday. There was nothing interesting happening.

YAAAAAAY!!!!

We want our baby to look like this...


I know that by now most of you refuse to watch SNL because you think it's not funny anymore. Trust me I suffered through the Sanz/Mitchell years but I continued to watch in the hopes that somehow, someday SNL would be funny once more. Well Ladies and Gentlemen...SNL is now funny again. Granted, the entire show is not gut busting but the skits are coming together. They've narrowed down the cast to 11 members and there are no longer any featured players.

By now I'm sure you're wondering why I have a picture of Baby Gonzo up top. SNL has a recurring sketch that I hope and pray for every Saturday night. This sketch is "Two A-Holes".
Kristen Wiig (My new favorite cast member) and Jason Sudekis play gum chewing, hair twirling yuppies. The Two A-Holes get into situations such as; "Two A-Holes Buying a Christmas Tree" "Two A-Holes at the Gym" "Two A-Holes in a Nativity Scene" and most recently "Two A-Holes at an Adoption Center"

I have never laughed so hard in my entire life and it gives me such joy to wait until fiance has a mouth full of food or drink and then say:

"You know what?"
(muffled) "what"
"You look like a rabbit"

It takes all his energy not to spit out whatever is in his mouth. One day it might make him choke and all I have to say is...at least I know the heimlich.

You're Kidding...Right


Please, please tell me they're kidding.

Because if they aren't, well I cannot even begin to imagine the awesomeness of God's wrath.

Who wants to wager a bet that it was Tom Cruise himself who said:

"jumped on Oprah's couch...check"
"impregnated Dawson's Creek star half my age...check"
"have a baby that looks asian...check"
"Name myself 'Christ' of Scientology...double check"

You have to wonder if this is all just a publicity stunt inspired by Mr. Crazy himself...Wait a second...of course it is.

I'm disgusted.

Black Angus

As some of you may know, I have a very cute and very hyper puppy named Angus. He's a black lab mix that I rescued from the pound last April. Angus will be turning a year old on February 2nd.

Instead of a picture of my very cute puppy, I've decided to put up a picture of his favorite toy* This toy holds special meaning to both Angus and myself. It was his very first toy. In fact when he first got it he couldn't even hold it in his mouth. In the 10 months that I've been graced with the presence of Sir Angus he's gone through five...yes five of them.

He has a system. First he chews the ears off and then he rips it apart. Fiance thinks he rips the ears off b/c we constantly feed him pig ears...but I'm not sure he can make that connection seeing as he doesn't witness the pig ears being made.

I used to take them away when he'd chew a hole in them but have since realized that he wants the stuffing...not to eat...but to play with. It keeps him entertained in the backseat during car rides, I don't even begin to know why, but it's a blessed occurence.

Now Angus has added a new step to the system, he now turns his pig inside out. I have ABSOLUTELY no clue how he does this. The hole that he's torn is only about the size of a nickle. My dog is either a complete genius or a complete idiot.

Needless to say, for Angus' first birthday he will be getting two more of these pigs. What can I say? He loves them. And I love him

Kisses

*not actually the same toy. I've spent the past 45 minutes or so searching for a picture of his toy and this is the best I could find. It's actually quite close, but the ears are too big. and they aren't white on the bottom. Not that I would know since I haven't seen one with ears for quite some time.

Why Can't We Do This All the Time?

Fiance and I just registered for our wedding gifts. I think we may have gone a little overboard. There's just something about the scanner gun that makes you want to go crazy and scan in everything you see!

As promised we registered for everything Bed, Bath and Beyond had to offer in the "As Seen on TV" section. We also registered for about 200 other things! Oops. The registry assistant even told us that we're the largest registry she's ever seen. She even said she's going to call other stores and brag about it.

I hope ya'll enjoy checking out our registry as much as we enjoyed registering!

You can find it here

*Update* I was bored last night so I added up everything on our registry and it turns out we've registered for over $4000 worth of stuff. I hope people love us!
