When Ryan Seacrest was on 90210

Heh. Heh. Heh. Frosted hair. Heh.

That's some excellent advice

The Rolling Stone Mad Men cover

As you all well know, I have never watched as much as five minutes of Mad Men. It's due to my conscious decision to wallow in complete ignorance on the subject of one pop-culture-permeating phenomenon.

No, it's not. I just never started and now I figure I might as well wait until it's over and then watch the whole thing. Also: As far I know, Mad Men contains no zombies, no time travellers, no hot vampire sex and no Taylor Kitsch. So there's that. 

Anyway, here's the cover.

Best unicorn t-shirt ever. Today

Thank you, Matt, for reminding me that there is always a better unicorn T-shirt out there. This one is from Busted Tees and is decribed as being, "rich in protein and enchantment."

 

Quick! Head on over to eBay to buy Stephen Moyer's, erm, sock

So, Alex Skarsgaard and Stephen Moyer are having an eBay contest to see who can make the most money for charity. There are signed scripts and DVDs for sale, but Moyer just upped the ante: "Up for auction is a piece of True Blood memorabilia known as "The sock of Destiny." The sock was donated to the Battle of the Fang by Stephen Moyer, who plays Vampire Bill on the hit TV show True Blood. The sock will be signed before it's sent to the winner! This piece of fabric is used when filming nude scenes so that the man's dangling parts are secured. Moyer has mentioned the sock in many interviews and the sock has become a staple in most of the interviews with the cast. This is your chance to own this extremely rare item."

As of right now, the bid is at $605.

I'm going to put the picture behind the cut - not because the item itself looks offensive, but because it's labelled with a word that may be deemed offensive to people who get offended by words.

Also, before I get too excited you get too excited, remember that Eric Northman cannot retaliate in kind. Skarsgaard has said that he does not wear any such silly garments. More information on the charities - Gulf Relief Foundation and SOS Children's Villages - and and how you can donate here.

 

And here's a little something something about the song in the final episode:

BUT WAIT! There's more. Like this photo from trueblood-news.com:

Finally: A use for Family Circus

I've always found Family Circus to be unbelievable creepy. As if a time-warp could at any moment open up in the comics section and pull you in to a cleanly-scrubbed Jesus-world that never existed in the first place. So, it's nice to see that the creep factor can be toned down by pairing up the drawings with quotes from Jersey Shore. Thank you, Jersey Circus.

Shhhhhh ....

Best thing of the day

Warning: there's a wee spot of bad language.

Channing Tatum in Toronto

He's shooting a movie here with Rachel McAdams called The Vow - according to IMDB: "A young newlywed couple recover from a car accident that leaves one of them with severe memory loss."

I think it's Channing's character who has the memory loss because he totally forgot to call me and tell me he's in town.

This dog needs to be on Dancing With The Stars

He/she can show David Hasselhoff how it's done. Seriously, this dog is a better dancer than 98 per cent of the contestants.
