24 Season 7 Trailer with Jack Bauer

Here it is all of you Jack Bauer fans! The trailer for Season 7 that begins in January 2009.



On Sunday, November 23, the Movie "Redemption" will premier as a two-hour movie. This is exciting.

Thank you to my significant other, I am now hooked on 24. I have watched all 6 seasons in a matter of months. No, I didn't buy all of the seasons. I went to my local library who is so great about having the latest movies and dvd's. Checked out season to season. And I participated in the latest craze of television hungry fanatacism...SERIES BINGING! No longer did I have to wait one week to see what would happen next. I watched a whole season in one Saturday afternoon and evening, popcorn and all!

Why I like the show? I love the plot lines, the fast movement, the very exciting episodic situations that are intriguing, confusing, unrealistic but makes you think about what could really be happening in our government. It's a show that makes me think. Sometimes it even includes a little romance and wanting. Overall, simply entertaining.

Newly Released Guitar Hero World Tour



WHOA! All of you Rock Band enthusiasts look out. Reviews are saying that although Rock Band can still do some things better than Guitar Hero World Tour, this may become a fast and popular seller! It seems that the release of Guitar Hero World Tour also includes MANY popular songs of Beastie Boys, Michael Jackson, Lenny Kravitz, Billy Idol, Van Halen and the list goes on. You can read MSNBC's full article about their first review on this game. On Wii, you can create your own songs and share them with friends. This is skits, dude! Now check out the drums on this game and watch this trailer...all of you drummers!!



I am excited to say the least. I'm a little late, okay, with this whole craze. I've only had Guitar Hero for Wii for less than 2 months and my whole family is hooked. My young girls don't play much BUT they basically sing along when big brother plays. It is quite entertaining on a Friday night. Our own little rock band concert in the living room. Ah man! Now we just HAVE to pick up World Tour. What about you? Is your whole family hooked, sold, crazed, addicted? Whatever you want to call it? Yes, we have limits. But not on a school night kids!

Colin Powell in Support of Obama



I truly respect Colin Powell's words. He makes some excellent points about McCain and Palin. Palin is not ready for this position in Powell's opinion. (Hmm! Do ya think?) He has watched both parties closely and shares some great insight. If you haven't decided yet, pay attention to Colin Powell's words. It's something to think about.

It's also interesting that people associated with McCain are SO afraid of Muslims. Many keep saying that Obama is Muslim and that he is associated with terrorists. HELLO PEOPLE!! Why do you keep doing that? As Mr. Powell has said, Obama is Christian and has always been Christian. Who are your sources of information?? Go educate yourselves. Please.

Thank you, Colin Powell! You shed some great light on this election and its primary candidates.

Opie Shows Support for Barack Obama

See more Ron Howard videos at Funny or Die


I just had to put this up. I won't say too much because this clip speaks for itself. Thank you Ron Howard!

Ellen with Obama and McCain



This was so awesome! Ellen Degeneres! She brings out the best in people. She brings out the fun in people. Barack Obama is clearly a wonderful example of someone who can hang with being both serious and laid back at the same time. Now, on the flip side...



Senator McCain, I'm not sure why you agreed to appear on this show. I really don't think it helped your campaign. C'mon, now! I think you backed yourself up into a corner. At least you stood your ground BUT... why did you put yourself in that position to begin with? I don't think I need to say much more here. However...I want to see McCain dance. How 'bout you?

Sarah Palin is a Sex Symbol



Well, Alec Baldwin thinks she is "hot". Others in the media agree. She was a former beauty queen, ya know. Personally, I think Tina Fey makes a more gorgeous Sarah Palin. Whatever the case, it seems that newscasters are starting to chat with one another after meeting with her or interviewing her. So the question goes "How was she?" Sex symbol Palin. Caribou Barbie. "Ha ha" I say to this.

Does this help the presidential campaign? Well, honestly it makes a joke of it. How can anyone take the Republican Party seriously at this point? Is it a wonder that she was limited in her roles on SNL last weekend. They simply don't want her to speak. What next, Sarah? Maybe she can make a guest appearance on Dancing With the Stars. Maybe she'll be invited to Season 8 of the show. She looks good...but can she dance?? That's the real question. (Oh yeah, she did 'Raise the Roof' on SNL and as I recall, she did it to the beat. Maybe she'd fair well in Carrie Ann's eyes.)

Material Girl Madonna on the Move



Okay everyone, did we not see this coming? Was it destined to happen that Madonna's relationship with Guy Ritchie would crumble and was too good to be true given her track record? Did any of us see this coming?

I for one have been a fan of Madonna since her days with Jelly Bean Benitez. I have watched her grow, blossom, get tangled up in the media, make for a great come back, watch her transformation with kabbalah, see her looking damn good with Justin Timberlake...and so on. She is a goddess! She truly is. I love her and wish her the best.

But I will have to say that I fell into the group of hoping that Guy Ritchie was her one and only and final. They seemed so good together. They made such a good couple. It was inevitable that Madonna would be too big for him. She moved on. I'll still follow her, though.

Sarah Palin on SNL : The Real Thing



Kudos to comedian Tina Fey for an awesome rendition of the vice presidential candidate, I think all of us agree that her performance is spot on. The clip above only shows a snippet of what Sarah Palin actually did on the show, and to be honest, it wasn't much. Was it me, or did she seem kind of quiet? She loves to talk and be around people, but I think the people advising her told her to keep things on the "downlow". We could all probably guess why, with the elections so close, many are on pins of needles looking for her to make a comment that the media can then blow out of proportion (we're all waiting for this), things are already silly enough as it is.

When the elections are over however, how much you wanna bet that she appears on the show in a bikini? That would be cool, she should still have her famous suit somewhere right?

If you ever get a chance to watch the SNL news parody towards the middle of the show, the rap performance was awesome. SNL's got a talented crew this season.

McCain's Body Language Sends Different Message


This week, John McCain appeared on "David Letterman" and apologized for missing his appointment with the talk show host. The clip above shows parts of the interview and you'll see that Dave put him on the spot regarding many serious topic, especially the one I think about the most, his thought on his vice presidential choice of Sarah Palin. It appears at about 3:30 in the clip. 

Pay attention to McCain's body language when posed the question about his vice presidential running mate. You can learn a lot about one's initial reaction when confronted with possible discomfort. After Dave asks the question, John McCain leans back, as if to retreat, and begins to interject his own words, interrupting Dave's flow. He also blinks a lot too, which is usually a common tell of someone lying. 

McCain is simply not comfortable answering that question, which makes me wonder about his truthfulness. His words were supportive of his running mate, but his body language says something else. In all this time, he should've rehearsed a better answer so his response would seem more confident and self assured. 

Check out the clip and see for yourself...again that's about 3:30 into the clip.
