Wind It Up - Gwen Stefani

This song is hot hot hot.....I don't think I'll ever be able to watch the sound of music the same way again. Gwen is living up to her title of the next Madonna. With each album she reinvents herself.
Enjoy.

If I Did It - O.J. Simpson

Another short post, but I find it repulsive that this murderer is trying to capitalize on his crimes. He has a new book coming out that details his wife's murder. The Goldman family has started a petition to show there outrage.

Here is the link if you would like to sign the petition.

UCLA Tazer Scandal

This is what happens when a republican/conservative government is allowed to create a climate of fear and terror in our countries.

This is not appropriate for children and very disturbing.

A UCLA student who happened to be Iranian-American is tazered by Campus Police for failing to present identification.

I'm sure there is going to be a lot of talk about this.

Quickie

Its been a busy start to the week. I'm spending the next two weeks working in a nice little town called Embrun. Helping open a store out there. I'm sure I'll have more to say later in the week. In the meantime here is a interesting picture.

Leader of the Free World

Thanks Stephen Harper

Thanks again Stephen Harper.

With his surprise income trust announcement(flip-flop)last night Canadian investors like you and I lost an estimated 25 Billion dollars today.

Let's not forget that he promised during the election that he promised that he wouldn't tax income trusts.

His party is hoping that by the next election you and I will have for got all about this.

What campaign promises is he going to break next?

Harper did manage to give corporations a tax cut.

When do we get to vote again!

Dove and Sony Bravia Commercials

Here are a couple of video's that I stumbled across recently. The first is from Dove. About two years ago Dove started using "normal" women in their commercials to demonstrate that not everyone looks like a supermodel. Here is the newest commercial.

The closing line says it all. No wonder our perception of beauty is distorted.

On a lighter note there is Sony Bravia televisions. I saw the first commercial a few months ago and thought I would share it. The producer took 250,000 multi-coloured superballs and dropped them down a San Francisco street. The results are amazing. Check it out.

Now they had to top it. The latest commercial was a huge undertaking requiring tonnes of paint and hundreds of crew members to pull it off. Before you watch keep in mind that they did not use any computer graphics to make the commercial.

In case you were worried the paint was made mostly of water and completely non-toxic. It was so safe that you could have drunk it. The clean up took five days with sixty people working on it.

Death Clock

I have seen this before but what a better night than tonight to share it with everyone. I did well, I should be around until August 30th, 2069, that gives me about 1,982,000,000 seconds left. By then I'll by 97 and spending another winter in Canada will not be worth it. Check your date and let me know how you make out.
