DOES ROSARIO DAWSON MAKE YOU STIFF AS A BOARD?


There are two kinds of people in the world: those who like Rosario Dawson because of her roof-top dance-off to The Jackson Five in “Clerks II” – and those who like her because she is a girl who likes planking.

Planking is the act of lying face down and still – like a plank of wood – in public places and at landmark sites. And now she’s started trying it out.

I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the reason why people plank. Some say they do it for the adrenaline rush. Others for what they call the ‘amazement’ of it all.

That got me wondering – planking might be something that I could aspire to be good at. I think I’m a natural. But I understand that it might take a lot of hard work. I would call Rosario on a lazy Sunday afternoon and ask her if she wanted to go out and practice. Just me... and Rosario... lying about in public places.

A man can dream. Now excuse, I hear the couch calling my name and “Josie and the Pussycats” is on TV.

Norah Jones is Back

There was a time in my life when I use to consume music instead of food. Ironically, when my career (in radio) got too busy or convoluted, 'my' music got lost in my life-mix that was dominated by the tunes I had to play to make a living. The Archies, Anne Murray, Celine Dion, Glass Tiger, Garth Brooks and Craig Ruhnke are currently NOT on my personal playlist. Sorry. I have sadly not schooled my five year old much in my world of musical misadventure. So through outside osmosis, Abi has unfortunately picked up on her own things including Justin Bieber. (For the longest time, she though he was singing "Baybit baybit baybit whoa!") She went through a Spice Girls phase (no) thanks to her grandmother and uncle. That was an unfortunate time in all of our lives -- especially since I was getting to the point where I could identify which Spice Girl was singing which lyric. P But I am trying to change that. And her education has to start with my re-education. Part o...

How to Get Chris Brown Rich

If you follow Chris Brown’s lead, there are just a couple of things that you have to do to climb the ladder of Forbes’ success just like he’s doing:   Have hit songs that no one can name or hum. Tattoo almost every part of your body in an effort to… oh… um… I don’t know – maybe to be Lil’ Wayne. Beat the hell of your ‘bitch’ and still manage to come out of it with a reputation of being the bad guy that’s not really all that bad at all. Share a name with practically every other Caucasian   guy that I personally know. Take pictures of your naked self in what had to a funhouse mirror that makes EVERYTHING seem too long and too thin and then claim innocence and bewilderment when that picture that you took with your phone mysteriously ended up on the internet.

Daydream Believer -- Davy Jones -- Dead at 66

The Monkees were a major part of my pop culture upbringing and an early introduction to rock and roll for so many Generation-X’rs. I would rush home from St. Patrick’s Separate School at the end of the day just to see the Pre-Fab Four’s show. And even though I personally was a Mickey Dolenz fan, Davy Jones owned the hearts of the group’s female fan base. Davy Jones passed away this morning. He suffered a heart attack in Florida. He was 66. I remember my father mocking me and questioning why I liked the show and the music. It was clear from the beginning that inspiration for The Monkees was born from the fanatical success of The Beatles – and that The Monkees were ‘cast’ in their roles as members of a band. In the sixties, there was little appreciation for their music by the industry – partially because Jones and Dolenz along with Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork had little to no control over the music. That would change. Nesmith and Tork were musicians. Jones, like Dolenz, was predomina...
