Palin provides more great TV

It's almost scary how well Tina Fey does Palin. Scary in not just looks, but the material which is suppose to be satire is almost verbatim what's coming out of her mouth. She's the best thing to come along for political satirists since Dan Quale.

This is what happens when you make decisions based on "gut feelings" instead of your head. The McCain ticket is paying the price.

The funny is almost non-stop...

The ultimate fashion accessory. Wings.

I ran across these today and just had to share. For that techno girl that has everything. I'm not sure what you would wear them to, but you would sure be the one whom everyone was staring at.

The Cybertek wings work on the theory of pneumatic power as they are recharged over a period of 5 – 10 minutes by using air pressure. Once recharged however, these stunning wings will extend and retract (very similar to that of a bird’s wings) approximately 7 times. The wings have a retracted wingspan of 2 ft and an extended wingspan of 6 ft and are a mere 7.5 lbs, making this techno-garment light and easy enough to utilize on a day to day basis.

The Cybertek wings are also fully customizable and you are able to change the tips at random with the variable colour choices that you require, making these gadgets a dream for fashion, music and dress-up events. They work wonders in fashion shoots too and if you’re feeling adventurous (or rich as these carbon fibre, extruded aluminium wings will set you back $1000) then you can wear them anywhere you want. Wherever that might be...

If you want to rush out and get a pair, you can find them here. Enjoy.

The Palin Ploy. Will it work?

Old and busted: Obamamania. The new hotness: Palinmania.

The image “http://www.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph/multimedia/archive/00863/Sarah-Palin-460_863327c.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

With Palin just finishing her Vogue photo shoot, it's painfully obvious she is becoming just as much a celebrity as Obama.

Where Obama once lead McCain by very large margins in the polls, most are now showing even numbers or McCain ahead, no doubt due to Palin's smexy popularity.

Both sides seem to have stopped talking about the issues and this has now denigrated into the "Campaign of Distractions," full of smoke and mirrors, sound and fury, yet signifying nothing. So why not play the hot chick card? I call it the Palin Ploy. A brilliant stroke of subterfuge from the oldest man to run for President in US history. Who cares what anyone stands for or what either will do for us when they get into office? We have a cast of characters now in both parties that will keep us up blogging for years to come...

But lets face it, we aren't the only ones with hot chicks in politics. So it must work.

These are some of the hottest MILFs in politics, both past and present:

Sarah Palin action figures + BJDs = WIN!

Two things I want to discuss. Sarah Palin Action Figures, and Ball Jointed Dolls.

Let's get serious here for a second — something which rarely happens with me — and let's talk about the target market for the Palin dolls. Do you really think these are for kids? Anyone who has a kid that still plays with dolls knows they would be ridiculed if they were ever stupid enough to present their child with one.

So ... who are they for? Only two ideas come to my mind. Either they are for Democrats who are too lazy to make their own voodoo dolls or they are for men who think Mrs. Palin is a MILF and need some tool to fantasize with.

So in the case of the latter, let's talk about the new craze sweeping the world from Japan, the ones who gave you Manga, Pokemon and Hello Kitty. Yes, I'm talking about Ball Jointed Dolls. The knee high variety seem to be the most popular.

"Already huge in Japan and South Korea, these hand-sculpted, hand-painted, anatomically correct and eerily lifelike dolls are gaining popularity with American enthusiasts."—Nancy Mullane, NPR

http://www.denverdoll.com/images/dollzone/hong1.jpghttp://www.denverdoll.com/images/dollzone/linlan2col.jpg

It only makes sense, right? I mean why not just make a better doll for what it will be used for and be done with it?

Admit it. You know you want one...

Shoppin' with Palin

In my last post on Palin I mentioned how everyone is busy looking for pictures of her in a swimsuit or her pageant photos. So far I've not seen anything legit emerge. Which leads me to the entire point of this post and the headline I chose.

Since no photo's have as of yet been uploaded to the web, people have been getting creative with Photoshop and creating their own. One was so good it actually fooled a CNN reporter.

OGUNNAIKE: And that's what she is going to have to guard against. I mean, McCain has been really good about painting Obama as this lightweight, using the word "celebrity" as a pejorative. They don't want to have a boomerang effect. They don't want that to come back on Sarah Palin, and people say, yes, she looks good in a bikini clutching an AK-47, but is she equipped to run the country? LOLOA OGUNNAIKE, CNN ENTERTAINMENT CORRESPONDENT
The photo above is the one that fooled her.

The real photo is here:

How can I tell they are all "shopped"? Well I'm glad you asked because it segues nicely into another favorite meme of mine...

OK, that's enough for now. Hope you enjoyed the show. I'll leave you with a real picture of Palin from her college days wearing a t-shirt celebrating her boobies.

Rick Astley on his meme

In a rather interesting case of synchronicity this morning, I ran across an article from The Guardian published today where Rick Astley was talking about and grading the various Rick Rolls circulating the internet.



Basketball Roll

A college basketball match is interrupted when some red haired dude dressed in a suspiciously familiar grey mac stalks the bleachers miming to... Cue lots of ornery looking parents and confused cheerleaders.

Rick: "It's really weird seeing someone impersonating you. But at the same time Vic Reeves' impersonation of me is one of the highlights of my life. I think it's one of the best things ever. I've just been to Manila performing, and there was a guy who was a film star there at the gig. He sang Never Gonna Give You Up with me and he was hilarious. I have fun with my past, I don't carry it around in a bag with me."





Barack roll

Edited footage of his royal Obamaness, dancing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, spliced with bits of his speeches to look and sound as if he's singing the track.

Rick: "I don't trust politicians. I think that by the time they've made it, with the concessions they've had to make in that position, I don't believe they still have the beliefs they had at the root. I think it's going to be interesting because he'll be the first black president. I'd be interested to see what black people in America really see him as - a 'black person' or a democrat who happens to have dark skin. I can't get my head around it. I also have a horrible feeling that he won't last very long. It's kind of depressing."





Fox roll

April Fool's Day came in hilarious spurts for that famously mirthful news network Fox. "Project Virgle" was the name of the first permanent human colony on Mars co-funded by Virgin and Google. It didn't exist of course but was reported by Fox. "Cut to VT" and it actually cut to...

Rick: "Fair play to them for putting it on national TV. The biggest thing I heard on April Fool's Day was that if you went to YouTube every one of the videos on the homepage Rick Roll'd and went to Never Gonna Give You Up. They got in touch with me about that and asked if I wanted to get to do something for it. But I said no thanks - it's been nice to be forgotten."





Hitler roll

A subverted scene from Oliver Hirschbiegel's film about Hitler's last days, Downfall. Here, Hitler is going over possible rap acts that will play his birthday party (Snoop, a reunited NWA). A henchman tells Adolf that Dr Dre has emailed the Fuhrer a link to his latest release. Hitler doesn't find it very amusing.

Rick: "Oh god! That's not as bad as Reich Roll'd though - footage of Hitler giving all his infamous speeches overdubbed with Never Gonna Give You Up. That's pushing it. I'm 42 and I could have had a tangible connection to anything from world war two. For the younger generation though it's ancient history, so it's probably not too distasteful to them."





Scientology roll

Xenu was kicked to the kerb, when a post pointing to a "Scientology Video Channel" was actually... yes you guessed it.

Rick: "That's kind of spooky that one. 'Scientology' always makes me think of that movie V where that woman takes off her mask of human flesh to reveal her true, alien self. I know that I'll probably be off Tom Cruise's Christmas list for saying that. Did I see the Oprah couch jump? No it's kind of hard to watch that... You never know if that was a publicity stunt or whatever. But he can do whatever he wants - he's one of the biggest, most bankable stars in the world isn't he?





Station roll

A huge crowd of "real" people get together at Liverpool Street Station in London to sing Never Gonna Give You Up in unison. Lots of camera phones, drunk City boys and missed trains to Wivenhoe.

Rick: "Someone emailed me about this. He'd received a chain email and called me up a couple of days before. It happened on a Friday at 6pm. By the evening it was all over YouTube. I watched those, it was so funny to get everyone in Liverpool Street Station to sing a pop song from 1987."

Speaking of new kinds of "Rick Rolls", this god-awful thing is starting to make it's rounds. This Muppets version is one of my favorites and finally is a scary Rick Roll. Finally, here's yet another site on everything Rick. Have fun!
