Brittney's done it again

Managed to find herself in the news for controversy I mean...

I was driving along the other day, and this new song came on the radio. After listening to it, I figured it had to be a new Brittney Spears song. I was catching most of the words, however, there were a few that were still getting past me...so I looked it up on line to find the title. All I really had to go with was "if you see her."

Doing a search, I came up with the title "If you seek Amy." I also came up with a whole slew of "why is this song controversial" hits....

Thinking about it, I couldn't figure it out either, except for the fact that it sounded like Brit was chasing after a girl...(yeah, we can't seem to get past that as a society)...but that didn't seem like too big of a deal. After reading some of the explanations, I finally understood the fuss.

Brit made a funny! REALLY, it is pretty creative for someone having such "serious" problems not too long ago. For the slower witted (as I was) translation:

IF-F
You-U
See-C
get it now?

GOOD JOB BRIT! Way to go girl!

Headline fun

From the Denver Post:
Tolls possible for Pena (~ omitted, cause I can't figure out how to type it on here) BLVD.
HOWEVER--the first link said Tolls Possible for Pea Blvd.
So, apparently now you will have to pay to go Pea....

Associated Press:
Marines: Mechanical, Human Errors led to jet crash
narrows it down....

Reuters
Distracted Kindergarteners become gamblers?
LOL

Reuters
German twenty-somethings perfer internet to partner
Guess there is a large chance of saving money that way....

Yay, MOVIES!!!!

So, after a couple of years of --I can wait for that to come out on DVD...this summer is looking up in movie choices according to a perusal through the IMDB:

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans--saw it. Pretty good for a sequel (yes I know it is actually a prequel). The storyline was true to the series, making the other two completely plausible. Couple of let downs--1. No Kate Beckinsale. 2. Bill Nighy wasn't Bill Nighy enough-as he is in the others. 3)Good, but not quite as good.

Fast and Furious: I love the tag line--New Model. Original Parts. Vin, Paul, Michelle, Jordana. 'Nuff Said....

X-Men Origins: Wolverine: It's Wolverine. It's Hugh Jackman. Questions?

Angels and Demons: (note to self, should maybe watch Da Vinci code first..., but since have read both, know what is going to happen anyway...)

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian: Really, another one? Hmmm...

The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3: Saw the preview for this the other day, or was it half the movie (not sure), but it looks fairly interesting.

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs: I LOVE this series, and I am not afraid to admit it.

Public Enemies: Christian Bale/Johnny Depp/Gangsters/1930s/4th of July weekend (with no Will Smith Picture in sight yet?).... *smiles*

G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra: quote IMDB "So the eye-candy factor is high..." With the leatheresque suits on the stills--Yes---yes---it--- is. It is very, very HIGH...

Whiteout: Potential thriller that doesn't need to steal from horror, and parade itself falsely...oh, and Kate Beckinsale ;)

And to end the list with "don't need to see it"--

Virus movies--I think there were about 5 that I counted
Parodies of movies genres: 2 or 3
Creepy kid movies--3 or 4 (movies where a child character is creepy, not creepy children's genre movies)
Weird kid movies--3 or 4 (movies where the children's genre is weird, not the child character)
On going "they should stop already" sequels--4 or 5

Bring on the popcorn!
