No - I'm not talking about the legalization of gay marriage. Just posting a shout-out to my girl, MCM, who put on this amazing show, Unchartered: Imaginary Landscapes. I ain't cultured and whatnot, but I hang around some pretty cool people who are. If you're in the 'hood, swing by tomorrow night for art and poetry and wine... now that's some good stuff.

Crushing on FSJ Crushing on BO

Fake Steve Jobs is an unwavering supporter of my main man, Barack Obama. It's definitely not McCain 2013, but FSJ - speaking for Silicon Valley - paints his own vision:

"...note to the rest of America -- we may not be as sexy as Hollywood or Wall Street, but you know what? We've got a shitload of money, and we know how to organize. We're a powerful bunch of khaki-wearing, gay-marriage-supporting, arugula-eating, Mac-using elitist nerds out here. To all of you racist homophobic non-Californian dumb fucks who find that annoying? Tough shit. We outsmarted you. We out-spent you. And now for the next eight years we're going to be running this country. We're going to give equal rights to gay people, fund stem-cell research, teach evolution, take down the fence on the Mexican border, and make sure abortion stays safe and legal. We're going to pull out of Iraq, shut down Gitmo, and stop torturing people. And yeah. A black dude with a Muslim-sounding name and degrees from Columbia and Harvard is going to be in charge. So sit back down, strap yourself in, and shut the fuck up, crackers."

For the record, I don't live in Silicon Valley or wear khakis. But the rest of the dream ain't so bad. And as FSJ would say, "Namaste".

What I Learned This Week in Hotlanta...

• Hotlanta isn't always hot (merely in the high-60s today)
• ScarJo may be a better singer than Paris Hilton, but I ain't going to go see her live anytime soon
• JE hearts BO
  
• David Archuletta is the toothache that will never go away
• There's another music web site that will inevitably fall short of my music mecca
• I really should bring nail polish remover with me

AI is Cooked, Can We Eat Now?

Can we just declare David Cook the winner and go home already? While I might be reluctant in certain circles to admit that I even know what's going on, Paula Abdul's mind-bending, time travel still entertains. That being said, and after my Aussie got kicked off, I'll eat the stale pasta salad that's been the sole resident of my pantry for the last two years if that awful sanguine, cloying Archuletta kid wins.

Everyone's Throwing Grandma Under the Bus These Days

Damn, I want one of these... just a few more weeks.

The Empire Strikes Barack

Time to Step Up My Training...

I'll be able to step up from CIT, to a full-fledged Cougar after a season of what's sure to be 2009's next great reality show hit:

TV Land Green-Lights ‘Cougar’ Dating Show: Older Woman to Vie for Affections of Bevy of Younger Men

TV Land gave the green light to an untitled project from The Bachelor and High School Reunion creator Mike Fleiss. The dating series will take an older woman (the cougar) and have her vie for the affections of a bevy of younger men.

But F it... in the meantime, while I may hang out in the Cougar Den from time to time, I'm still cool with going to Brooklyn.
