Report: Children can kill people too, 11 year old shot and killed father’s pregnant girlfriend…

Leave a comment

Think young children are not capable of killing people too? WRONG! I totally blame this on this child’s uneducated father. Leaving a shot gun where a kid can grab hold of it or worse not teaching them to never point guns at people?

Check this article out:

It’s pretty clear to me, that the kid was pretty pissed that his step Mom is having a kid and he didn’t want a new step brother or sister. I know that most kids who have divorced parents that kids hate their stepmothers.

Anyway, we don’t know this whole story. We don’t know if this 11 year old kid was outraged of a pregnant step mother or if he thought the gun was a toy gun but turned out real. Could be either of those things.

I’ll be following this story.

Report: Leaked Oscar winners at TMZ is faked…

Leave a comment

TMZ posted a memo claimed to be written by Sid Ganis, who is the president of the Academy. They are the winners of this Sunday’s Oscars claimed to be leaked to the web.

See it here:

http://www.tmz.com/2009/02/21/and-the-winner-isnt/

It is faked. The typed letter looks amatuerish, they got the nominee names wrong for “Sound Mixing” winners which the Academy wouldn’t do. Plus, the Academy wouldn’t write the list of winners on a piece of paper ’cause they know that’ll be in danger of winners getting leaked to someone else.

I’m sure the Academy keeps the winners in an envelope locked up in a safe place and wait for the envelopes to be opened at this Sunday’s show. So some of those winners or all of them, could be wrong.

Thought: “Late Night” with Conan O’ Brien, final show from last night thoughts?

Leave a comment

Last night’s final “Late Night” show with Conan was a really good one. The show dragged on a little longer so Conan can do a long goodbye message doing all of these “thank you’s” and all that. Notice how in his goodbye message at the end of the show, there wasn’t one mention of Jimmy Fallon taking over his place soon? Weird. Conan was looking so nervous and emotional, he almost cried at the end of his speech, but then he lightened up quickly by saying something like, “taking over the Tonight Show will only get better”.

He had quite a career ride. Conan taking over Leno will not fail with ratings at all. This will only make Conan an even bigger of a star. A LOT more people will watch Conan now that he will be on an hour early soon.

I love Conan, been a longtime fan for years, I’ll be watching him on “The Tonight Show” when he makes his debut on that soon. I have no interest in watching Jimmy Fallon’s show. Unless, Jimmy Fallon has celebrities on his show that I’m a fan of, maybe I’ll watch it, but I’ll be watching Conan all the time still like I always had. It’s kind of sad that he will no longer be a New Yorker, but him moving to a different show is a huge opportunity for him, he will be more famous and big than ever.

Congrats to Conan, I’m happy for the guy. Usually I’m never this happy toward celebrities I don’t know about, but I am with Conan. He’s the fuckin’ man!

The White Stripes were really good too last night by the way. Jack and Meg are both looking great. The song they did was great.

Thought: I think Ah-nuld will still film, “The Expendables”…

Leave a comment

TMZ and AICN, both of those websites, has said Arnold may or may not film his scene for “The Expendables”. Honestly, I think both of those websites are just bullshitting. Although, I do know that Sly himself talked to both of those websites to make corrections of the Arnold movie news, it’s just a tease, ’cause you know, Sly likes surprises. Sly likes to shock people with things. Arnold will still do the movie.

Arnold is currently trying to fix the California budget and that’s his only focus. Somehow, I think Sly will drag Arnold out of office secretly for a day and then they will film Arnold’s scene privately.

I don’t think there’s anything to worry about Arnie pulling out of the film because of his political work. Sly and Arnold’s been friends for years. I’m sure Arnold wants to do this for him and action movie fans. He’ll do it, trust me on this.

Thought: Sly needs to bring Will Teasle back for “Rambo 5″…

Leave a comment

Sly confirmed a while back he is also doing a Rambo 5 in the future, he’ll probably get right to work on that, after he’s done with “The Expendables”. What do you think? Should Sly bring Brian Dennehy back for Rambo 5? I think he should. Brian should be back as a retired Sheriff, Will Teasle, becoming friends with John Rambo in the fifth installment. Dennehy and Stallone reuniting would be pretty sweet. I really hope Sly considers bringing him back. Brian is getting old, yes, but he had a role in “Righteous Kill”, the new Al Pacino and Robert Deniro movie, and I can tell you, Brian still has the acting talent. It’s worth it to bring Brian back to Rambo. Do it Sly!! Write Brian as Will Teasle in the script for the next one. SERIOUSLY!!!

Report: Hugh Jackman on hosting the Oscars, “I’m going to be drunk and nude on stage”…

Leave a comment

Is Hugh Jackman serious? Or is he joking? Things tell me that Hugh Jackman is not afraid of walking nude on stage in front of thousands of people because I’m sure he did it before when doing his theatrical plays.

He also confirms that the “High School the Musical” kids will perform with him.

Read Hugh Jackman’s interview here:

http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Movies/02/20/hugh.jackman.oscars/?iref=mpstoryview

I’m sure Jackman is just fooling with the drunk and nude thing. If he actually does it, I’m sure they’ll censor his privates somehow.

The Listening Room: Hear the new U2 album “No Line On the Horizon” at myspace!!!

Leave a comment

Due to an online leak of the new U2 album, they put the album up in myspace instead of forcing legal action. Just shows how really cool dudes the boys in U2 are. Axl Rose would force legal action on a leaked album, but not U2. You should thank Bono and the dudes for this!

Hear the new album here:

http://www.myspace.com/u2

I’m listening to it now as I’m typing this and so far, I’m fuckin’ loving it! Old school u2 indeed!!! Bono and the guys has always been awesome songwriters.

Those who don’t like or those who think U2 sold out, don’t understand their music like I do. I’ve been listening to them for years, ever since I was a child. I have all their albums. They’re one of my favorite bands of all time.

The songs on, “No Line” album are enjoyable. I still like “All That You Can’t Leave Behind” better, but “No Line” is just as good as that one.

TMZ confirms a beaten Rihanna photo is real…

10 Comments

Actually the LAPD did confirm the photo is real at TMZ, reports going around that Rihanna’s Dad isn’t happy about it either. I hope Rihanna and her family sues that fucking website, TMZ.

I don’t think the family needed to see that pic and neither the public. I didn’t want to see what her beaten face looks like? Why would anyone?

Boycott TMZ. Mr. Levin calls himself a lawyer? Idiot.

Thought: Brock to quit local music for good?

Leave a comment

Actually, I’ll admit that the reason I haven’t been out to support the music scene lately (if there is a scene anyway), or playing my own shows in a long time is that I am actually thinking about giving it up.

I’ll never quit guitar playing, that I’ll always do for the rest of my life. Just not being any part of the local music scene. Sorry, but I have lost a lot of interest in it over the years. Local music is no fun anymore. Boring. Predictable. Too much negativity and hateful people out there. I can go on. They all call themselves “profesionals” and I don’t see profesionals out there at all.

It’s not the music scene on why I’m thinking about giving it up, it’s all about a change in my life. Concentrating on life is more important than music. Making your life better comes first before fun stuff. That’s what I’m mostly concentrating on.

I haven’t played a live gig in almost a year, and that’s a clear sign that I’m thinking about giving it up. Of course, I’ll always still write songs and put ’em online for all to hear, but performing live music around this area isn’t that thrilling as other local bands around here are making it out to be. The internet is a good tool to release your music and get yourself heard, so I’ll just leave it at that.
