beckham recalled to england squad

I have no idea what any of this means, but it's an excuse to put another georgeous blond on the site.

Former captain David Beckham has been named in the England squad for the first time since the 2006 World Cup.

Coach Steve McClaren's U-turn means Beckham, 32, is set to start Friday's friendly against Brazil followed by the Euro 2008 qualifier in Estonia.

Fit-again Newcastle striker Michael Owen returns in place of Wayne Rooney, who is suspended for the Estonia game.

Reading's Nicky Shorey, David Bentley of Blackburn and Chelsea's Joe Cole are also included in the 26-man squad.

Uh..."friendly" is a noun now? Dunno bout these brits takin libs wit our freakin language and shit.

30 years of rebellion

May 25, 1977

A day that will live in infamy for Copolla/Scorcese and indie movie fans of a certain snobbiness.

George Lucas ruined the motion picture as we know it (and summer movie going) with the release of Star Wars, his galactic, western "art film".

But it was just two years before that Steven Spielberg charted blockbuster waters with the first summer event movie, Jaws. A movie that still thrills with Hitchcock chills and camera frills.

[Ed. note: There's a closing paragraph in me about how the rebellious kids with their fancy film school smarts and crowd pleasing instinct ended up running the movie business and becoming the hated empire that they initially rebelled against but I just can't figure out how to frame it in a larger context to make my point....wait I think I just did. Booyah! Schools out!]

ch ch ch cherry

I can hear Jermaine singing:

Why don't you do what you do When you did what you did to me?

Whatever it is, Cherry Zero does it to me! Best Ever? Definitely.

Run over to the degorgeously "flash"y Mycoke.com and immerse yourself in their virtuworld for some reason.

Cherry is the new Jack.

a bit bloated but still cute

Spiderman 3, in friendly neighborhood theaters near you, wOwwed me, but not by adding more digital effects to the screen. In fact, it could have used a bit less. Come on! How many cars and pieces of buildings do we have to see spinning around on the screen at once? Whew...left my head swirlin! Course I was sitting reeeaaaal close, the better to see him with my dear. But I digress...though a tad long, the themes of forgiveness and seeping darkness of the soul touched me...not unlike the cute boy next to me...but that's a story for another blog.

Note to Spiderman: when they paying you 20 million or so to werk it out...hire a trainer, drop a few pounds. The camera ain't adding that much, and your suit, is uh, very informative, even in black.

cosmo gurls

A stunning (and blond!) Ashlee Simpson beautifies your checkout lanes this month... Hubba hubba!

Muh favorite part is where she doesn't confirm or deny the obvious:

The most buzzed about change is her profile (Ashlee has never officially confirmed or denied having surgery). "I feel very confident with the way I look," she says. "But I felt just as confident the way I looked before. I’ve always been confident with who I am."

And while you're sippin some pink sweetness, gander at the gratuitous "Guy Without His Shirt" for a beautiful boy in boxers; or this week's love lesson: The Mermaid.

Uh.......huh.

mea culpa

I'm gay. I suck. I swallow. Get over it.

And for the 4 twits gettin their google on, mea culpa means "I'm the best" in spanish.

Did I mention I was gay?! Gay gay gay!

your world frightens and confuses me

Via Snopes:

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm just a caveman. I fell on some ice and later got thawed out by some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuses me! Sometimes the honking horns of your traffic make me want to get out of my BMW ...and run off into the hills, or wherever ... Sometimes when I get a message on my fax machine, I wonder: "Did little demons get inside and type it?" I don't know! My primitive mind can't grasp these concepts. But there is one thing I do know--when a man like my client slips and falls on a sidewalk in front of a public library, then he is entitled to no less than two million in compensatory damages, and two million in punitive damages. Thank you.

No less!

On that note: what's goin on with the m teevee? I thought Jordin Sparks was a boy?!?!? and...and...and...

Avril Lavigne Says MySpace Is Too 'Confusing' For Daily Use

BBC say:

The villagers, in Guangxi province, reportedly attacked government offices after officials imposed heavy fines on families who had too many children.
