BEST. . .CONCERT. . .EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


My friend and I made the trek to Austin, Texas to fulfill my Nine Inch Nails-Groupie requirement for the month.  The closest show to where I live was here, which was a two-hour drive.  I ditched work, put on my skinny jeans, and we left.  When we arrived in Austin, there was parking right in front of the venue.  The meters didn't work, and my friend was quite anxious about getting a parking ticket.  I personally could have cared less, so I left the car, and left her to walk to CVS by herself to get her earplugs, while I went inside and sat with the other presale ticket holders.  I wanted to be at the stage again for the Nine Inch Nails/Jane's Addiction concert.  
Street Sweeper Social Club, consisting of Tom Morrello from Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave/Nightwatchman and Boots Riley, along with a couple of white guys, opened the show with a rocking set.  They played many songs that have been previewed for us.  They also busted out a riveting cover of M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes".  SSSC's set was only 30 minutes, and frankly, I would have loved to see more of them.  They were so energetic and a great choice for an opening act.  Then, Nine Inch Nails exploded into "Mr. Self Destruct", with thunderous vocals, percussion, and bass.  Of course, Nine Inch Nails rocked.  Their set was very The Downward Spiral-heavy, an homage to the old folks, like myself.  TDS is my favorite of their albums, and every song is repeatable, for multiple plays.  They also played "Dead Souls", a Joy Division cover from The Crow soundtrack, which was such a pleasant surprise.  Interestingly, there were no tracks from the most recent album, The Slip.  I think the newest song was "Survivalism", from Year Zero.  Trent, Robin, Ilan, and Justin all looked fantastic, and they played their asses off.  I would see them again, and again, and again, and again, times infinity.  It was an amazing show, and I loved being in the pit, close to the stage again.
After about ten-fifteen minutes, the beginning chords of "Three Days" resonated through the air, the curtains dropped, and Jane's Addiction appeared.  Dave Navarro's Barbie doll also made her appearance, from Twitter update fame.  Since Jane's hasn't released any new music in like, twenty years, they banged out hit after hit, with "Mountain Song", "Ocean Size", "Been Caught Stealing", etc., taking me back to high school/college.  The '90's kick ass, as proven tonight.  By this time, the young folk who came for Nine Inch Nails left, and I was able to move closer to the stage.  I was stationed immediately in front of Eric Avery and right next to Pee Wee Herman and his multi-ethnic harem.  PW had several non-Caucasian women with him, hanging on the rail.  Now, that I think about it, they probably had no idea why they were at a NIN/JA concert.  But, PW needed his harem around, I suppose.  Anyway, I must say, Dave Navarro is a beautiful man.  I am all about the tattoos, piercings, and tight, designer jeans that accented the contour of his shapely ass.  Very, very nice.  However, towards the end, some dumbass pushed his way up to the front, and proceeded to hang on me, with his crotch on my ass.  I wasn't sure what to do, but, the visual of Dave Navarro helped distract me.

I have to appreciate their honesty. These McDonald's employees are so committed to serving their customers with honor, dignity, and a hint of genitalia. I wonder if they Super Size it?

OMG Is This Really Necessary?????


I don't even know what to say about this. After all, though this is not actually news, considering there is a pending pandemic and financial crisis. However, it is news, because we live in a really simple society.

I Heart Guy on Guy Fight Scenes


After watching the Twilight movie a couple of times in the last 24 hours, I discovered my favorite part.  I was completely entranced by the scene when Edward Cullen, played by a very beautiful Rob Pattinson was in an intense fight seen with the antagonist, James (played by a rather handsome Cam Gigandet).  Sure, there was the usual throwing each other across the room and knocking each other's teeth out.  But, they played vampires, so biting was involved.  They had to bite each other, and, frankly, that totally turns me on.  Seeing two beautiful guys bite each other is rather hot.  In fact, it induces fantasies of wanting to be in between the biting.  Their facial expressions were rather passionate and almost sexual, very nice.  
I am also a sucker for Ultimate Fighting.  I do watch UFC every so often on television.  Some of those guys are pretty hot, and when they are tattooed, muscular, and sweating, it increases the level of hotness.  There is also a lot of rolling on the ground on top of each other involved--definitely not as enticing as vampires biting each other.

Hot Guys and Cold Booze--Nothing Better!

Okay, I am totally loving this guy, with the clever message T-shirt. He has wormed his way into my heart, and it doesn't even bother me that he will get laid and I won't. I am not annoyed that he will have more sex in one month than I have had in my entire lifetime. It reminds me of "Superbad" a little, when the ambition of the nerdy, loser guys was to be mistake sex for some hot chick.

When Idiots Grade a President


Today marked the first 100 days of the Obama Administration. Life was already better when President Obama won in November, as just knowing that we were never going to have to deal with the Bush Administration was a wonderful and joyous occasion.  Now, we have this landmark anniversary of President Obama's time in office.  He, unfortunately, walked right into a colossal disaster, which was left by his predecessor.  After an eloquent and informative press conference today, I am confident that we have one of the best Presidents in our nation's history.
So, WTF is all this crap about "grading" the President's first 100 days?  We VOTED for the man, for crying out loud!  Isn't that enough of a "grade" or positive support?  I find this cable news assault infuriating, and essentially insulting, as a human being with functional brain activity.  President Obama is accomplishing more in 100 days of his presidency than many previous leaders.  He is focused, thoughtful, passionate, about rebuilding the morale of the American people.  He appeals to Americans of all ethnicities, genders, and ages.  People can criticize to their heart's content.  After all, this is the U.S.A., where our forefathers fought for freedom of speech, happiness, health, and so on.  I don't remember ever "grading" a President before.  President GW Bush never really got that scrutinized early in office, and he turned out to be one of the worst Presidents in history.

Damn that Bret Michaels!

I didn't want to do it, but, I did, and I am so ashamed.  I watched "Daisy of Love" on Vh1.  Partially, I was curious to see how Daisy, one of Bret Michael's sloppy seconds, could get her own television show.  She is on a mission to promote herself and hopefully, for her, hook up in the process.  She has followed the tradition of giving nicknames to all of the guys, with the assistance of host, Riki Rachtman.  In fact, he basically produced the nicknames for her.  He obviously has more functional brain cells than Daisy, and therefore, was able to provide some clever pseudonyms, such as "Fox", for a Chris Cornell wannabe, whom she finds hot.  Also, there is "Flex", a guy who manages a gym.  As with many reality-ish shows, a former member of a few casts, "12-pack" resurfaced and claims to be attracted to Daisy.  He made a point that he was not present for the pomp and circumstance, but, to win Daisy's heart.  However, my favorites were these Swedish triplets, who couldn't have been older than 18.  They resembled one of those prototype European androgynous "rock" bands, kind of like Germany's Tokio Hotel.  Each triplet was nicknames, "84", "85", and "86", as Rachtman felt these were the years in which they seemed to be stuck.  So, with their heavily teased, hairsprayed, and sculpted hair, they admitted with thick Swedish accents that they were hoping to partake of free booze and food, and maybe hook up in the process.  Daisy is another story, however,  as she is a well made-up, Pamela Anderson wannabe, and she claims to sing and be a musician.  There is no attempt to make her seem semi-intelligent.  I truly think Rachtman's presence is to provide compensatory brain function.
