YouTube videoSunset Tan

E! Network is right on target. We want to see 6 year olds get tanned. It wasn’t enough with Showbiz Mom’s and Dad’s this takes it to a new level. I mean creepy gay guys, children getting inappropriate sun treatment, and the topper a dead guy’s whose last wish is to be tanned before being buried? Do people really care about the trials and tribulations of a tanning salon?
Obviously enough to make a show of it, I have a few other ideas, let me pitch them:

Based in the mid-west a mild mannered chicken sexer and his family of sexer’s seek to expand their business into selling wooden teeth to the locals- We’ll call it “Sex, Money, Chicks”

A Florida Doctor who specializes in sex changes, for gay men only. He’s straight, but is caught up in the glamorous world of transexuals- We’ll call it “Doctor Whaaaa?”

They should rename it from Sunset Tan to Cancer on a Stick. Its catchy I think, damn I’d make a great TV exec.

I think Joe Rogan is right, we’re very close to “Who’s the Baby’s Daddy” where 6 contestants have intercourse with one woman, and she has 6 weeks to figure out Who’s the Baby’s Daddy.

Bob Barker is finally leaving his post at The Price is Right .

If you think about Bob Barker was more like a cult leader. He terrorized the “Barker Beauties“, they seemed brainwashed following his directions.

People say well what about the prizes? I say its the devils tool to entice you.
Bob would say things like “You’ve just won a brand new car, now go bring me the soul of a child”. Are these the words of an icon? I think not.

Ever notice how the Big Wheel you spin to try to win $10,000, looks a lot like a torture rack? The prize is salvation people, if you happen to win $10,000 you go free thats the price he has placed on your soul.

I’m just saying.

I tried to watch 5th Grader. I gave it a real honest shot. But Jeff Foxworthy just puts me off, now I know he used to work for IBM, and he’s isn’t a dumb guy. But that accent, every time I hear him I question whether or not he should be standing upright.

So I didnt watch any TV at home today. And so soon after launching this site, how dare I!
To make up for it, the wife and I went to the Home Depot, to make our backyard look less like the hell we turned it into after we moved in.

While at the store, I did however watch a very informative video about solar lighting, it was to say the least facinating.
Did you know that, well, they make the lamest in-store videos known to man? And the only way they can get you to watch them is to place something shiny in front of it? They totally play on the fact that I have a.d.d. and can’t help push a button near something shiny….or a soda can lid with light reflecting from it..

And oh yeah, America’s Got Talent is on tonight… lets see if David Hasselhoff can stay sober throughout the entire show.

I find myself oddly fascinated by “Professional” Bull Riding. Today on ESPN 900 or something, people actually climb up on a 1500lb animal that is zapped with a cattle prod, and have their testicles clipped with something that want NOTHING on them…

Then in what I can only determine as an arbitrary number have to stay on it for 8 seconds. 8 seconds, why 8 seconds? Is it because these bull riders can’t count that high? There are guys like Cleetus, and Cleedus, and Cleatus wrastlin the bulls, to win a top prize of $15,000.

Don’t get me wrong $15,000 for 8 seconds is excellent per hour wage (around $6,750,000/hr), but for jesus, risk my life for a top prize of $15K with a pissed off side steak under me? I think not.

But yet, I can’t stop staring at the tv, guys with chin implants, screws in the legs/arms/torso’s. I think its similar to why I like Gymnastics. I like to see people fall. Not because its funny….because its hilarious.

Finally!!! Is all I can say. They’ve stepped up the action, a few people die, and it gets interesting and intense!

For those that missed it, go get it on itunes or something. Without spoiling too much, the NY bosses decided to take out the New Jersey guys. The decision came down from the Phil Leotardo himself, to take out the top 3 guys, Tony Soprano, Bobby Baccalieri, and Silvio Dante.

Well Tony caught wind of this early from his “friend” in the FBI. And he decided to strike first, he imported some gooks from the old country to take Phil down. But the oopsed, and knocked off some Russian guy. Next thing you know Bobby’s at a hobby store getting bullets railed into him like a video game.

Sil’s fate is almost as bad, except he just ended up in the hospital with little chance of waking up.

Tony is now in hidding, going to sleep in what I think is classic, imagine him and an automatic assault riffle in a bedroom.

Side note, anyone else notice that when they go into the kitchen of the hideout, there is a life sized poster of Sil? Just thought that was funny.

Looking back at it, last nights episode of Entourage blew. Other than E’s girlfriend, the smoking hot Emmanuelle Chriqui, there weren’t any girls. Since when doesa high flying, movie producing, good looking Hollywood type not get any action? I’m just saying that it was a bit weak on the girl side, thats all.

As far as storyline, it just seemed like a filler episode to setup Season 4, similar to the way they did in Season 1, where they left everyone hanging on while they boarded a plane to go film Queens Boulevard (wow, does that make me a huge nerd? actually knowing all this shit?)
