Worth a 1,000 Laughs, But Not $1,000 Bucks

During those horizontal dance parties between two people (or more, if that's your thing), there are those experiences that many of us (for those who haven't, you are VERY fortunate otherwise you must not be getting any) wish were only figments of other peoples' imaginations, and that we ourselves never ever experienced.

I imagine that some people who are in the adult entertainment industry probably have those wishes more than the rest of us regular Joe's out there.

How much would you have to be paid to spend a few precious hours of your time with this special guy? [Not work safe]

If you already have...please, have a teddy bear, I don't want to see you cry.

Janet Jackson's Boob Is Hot News Again!

According to a CNN article , I am yet again taken aback by my country's sensitivity.

In short: the Supreme Court wanted to bring it up again, as far as I could tell, because it was important, and they are "re-examining" the case now. Personally, I thought the reasoning behind this was a little vague, but that could just be that I'm writing this on an empty stomach and I just finished a high-intensity exercise regime. You know, so I could get PUMPED!

Anyhow. I decided to brush up on my Jackson intel and take a look.

Here's a clip of the ill-fated performance: "Wardrobe Malfunction"

And here's her 40yr old booby in all it's glory, with some wild jewelry, no less (providing link only for work-safe paranoids around the world!): OMG BREAST

I agree that this is in fact a breast on national television, even if the piercing piece does sort of "mask" the appearence of nipple. However, on any Joe Average family T.V., I'm sure they could see what that thing was just fine.

I think it was purposeful. I disagree that it was CBS's fault. There is this 5 second delay on most live programming, the superbowl did not have it, one of those "didn't consider there'd be a woman's breast on national television" moments from a staff or crew member, from what I gather in the article.

I really doubt that said crew or staff member responsible for bleeps and censor bars knew in advance that this was going to be a part of the show. I mean, unless he was boinking some PA who knew the rehearsal details or something, but beyond that, I'm convinced that while the exposing of the boob was intentional, I don't believe those intentions were made known to the proper people in charge.

This surprises me somewhat. Not so much about the story itself, but more that the Supreme Court thought to bring it up again to better impress upon the networks how they feel about what they consider to be obscene material.

Point in example. Have you seen or heard about the Quizno's commercial?

Watch it. It's only 32 seconds of your time, and not only is it hilarious, it is evidence of the fact that our sensor boards are still very concerned with content. After the commercial aired originally, it was taken off and re-edited so it was less gay--and I mean that in the "HAAAAY SEXY, DAMN YOU A FINE MAN!" way, not "dude, you got fired, that's totally gay" way.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

I'll make this quick.

I liked it.

It was too short.

The theater I went to offers two different endings at the end of the credits, one in theater A, another in theater B. I found this out after comparing my experience with my room mate's experience.

Also, happy May Day! Have a margarita!
