GO MEAT!

I love this commercial. And, I'm so thrilled that they brought it back this year.


Every time I stand over the grill flipping my meat, I am so tempted to yell at the top of my lungs, "I SAID-UH BEEF HOT LINKS!", just to see if anyone responds.

I'm Baaaaaaack!

Dwellers, I have a major announcement. This summer, I will be making my triumphant return to the dinner theater stage. I'll be performing in Little Shop Of Horrors, and reprising my role as the voice of Audrey II, this time for the Lazy Susan Dinner Theatre.


In the fifteen or so years that I've attended performances there as a patron and friend of the theater, I had never considered auditioning there. But, when I heard they were going to do Little Shop. . ., I figured why not. I love the show, I can sing the part, and it's been a couple of years since I've performed on stage. Plus, the extra money won't hurt.

So, if you are looking for something to do this summer, come on over to the Susan and catch the show. Mention my name and get all the Bova Shankel you can eat!

FREE?!! It Must Be Good

Guess what came in the mail for me. That's right, some Rachael Ray dog food. Guess how much I payed for it. Absatively posilutely nothing. Yup, free! Not even a shipping and handling charge.

If you weren't aware of it, Walmart has a free samples website with products like shampoos, laundry detergents, diapers. Right now, they even have NicoDerm for those of you out there trying to quit. You just click on the sample you want, fill in your name and address, then done. Weeks later, you get your sample in the mail.

Boy, this BruDog can't wait to dig into his Rachael Ray Nutrish meal. . . OK, it isn't for me. It's for the two great dogs we have at home, Daisy Cow and Darwin. Hope you enjoy, doggies!


And, hope you enjoy taking advantage of this great info, Dwellers!

Movies Were Movies Weren't Movies

Fox News' website recently had their list of "Ten Movies That Our Pure Torture." Well, I decided to check it out. Here's the list and my thoughts:

Basic Instinct 2 - Never saw it because everyone said is was so bad.

Battlefield Earth - Tried to watch, but couldn't get through it.

Catwoman - Another one I never saw because of friends' reviews.

Gigli - Never saw and could care less.

From Justin To Kelly - Two words: Guilty pleasure. Yes, I enjoy the movie. . . for what it is.

The Postman - Never wanted to see it.

Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot - Um, no.

Striptease - Great movie? No. However, is it torture? Not at all.

Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2 - What?! Who's even heard of this movie?

Waterworld - Saw this movie in the theater. Fell asleep for about twenty minutes, which I never do because I feel like it's a waste of money. However, was it torture? No. Not when I got a good nap out of it.

Odd Holidays

Hey Dwellers! Guess what today is. It's International Spank Out Day. I think, in honor of the holiday, we should take a page out of Ron's hand. . .book by whippin' it out and. . . OOPS! Sorry this is a G rated blog.

Speaking of Ron, I believe his month starts tomorrow. So, you all had better be nice to him. Happy Asian Pacific American Heritage Month!

Ugh!

I have a complaint. My normal commute of fifteen minutes took me an hour and fifteen today. It wasn't because of an accident or volume. It was because of protesting. And, not just any protesting. Someone climbed up a construction crane, hung a banner from the crane, and then stayed up on the crane.

You know, crap like that does not make me sympathetic to your cause. Especially if it's keeping me from getting to work. The sad part is that it was supposed to bring attention to an important cause, global warming. Although, slowing up traffic and causing thousands of cars to sit idling doesn't seem to me to help the cause.

Thank you. Discuss.

HIGHlarious

Have you ever looked up something on YouTube, and then ended up clicking on a related video, and then another, and then another, until you've clicked on and watched so many videos that you end up on a video that has nothing to do with your original search? Well, I did that recently and ended up on this recording of someone pranking a telemarketer. Not sure how old this is, but dayamn funny. Check it out.

DOHnuts

Today I saw what I think is one of the silliest commercials I've ever seen. In the commercial, some kids are laying around watching TV. The TV starts to suck the kids in, kinda like the tractor beam on Star Trek. Then, their father comes into the room and breaks the TV's hold on the kids by offering them Dunkin Donuts. What the hell is that teaching us? Don't sit around watching TV! Eat some donuts instead!

It kinda reminded me of those old Hostess donut commercials, where the family would sit down to a huge platter of donuts for breakfast.

Idol Chatter

Damn that American Idol for running over time yesterday. I was at a union meeting last night, so I had to rely on my DVR to record Idol. Well, since the show ran over, it cut off the last performance by Adam Lambert, who is my favorite, by the way. Fortunately, I also watch Fringe, which comes on after Idol. So, I did get to see his performance. Unfortunately, I missed the end of Fringe because it, of course, started late. So, I don't know how it ended. UGH!

Speaking of Idol, the whole "boo Simon every time he speaks the truth" thing is getting tired and old already. SHUT UP!

Also, I was OK with the four judge thing at the beginning of the season, but now I think Paula may have been right. It does slow down the flow of the show. Maybe if there were only three judges, I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED THE END OF FRINGE!

Thank you. Discuss.

Addictive Commercials


I cannot get this song out of my head.
