Did You Learn Anything?

By now, you've seen the instantly famous Tiger Woods ad featuring the voice of Earl Woods seeming to chastise his son for his "transgressions." Earl Woods, who died in 2006, is heard saying, "I want to find out what your thinking was. I want to find out what your feelings are. Did you learn anything?"

The ad has, naturally, set off waves of controversy, with many approving of the ad's message, and many others saying it's an eerie, exploitative use of Earl Woods' words and memory. It's gotten people talking, which is exactly what an ad's supposed to do. But were the ad's creators, Nike and the ad agency Wieden + Kennedy, playing a bit fast and loose with the facts on this one?

As it turns out, possibly. ABC is reporting that the words from Earl Woods came from a 2004 documentary, and they weren't aimed at Tiger at all, but at Kutilda Woods, Earl's wife and Tiger's mother:


GIMME A "P"!!!


A group of Texas cheerleaders is in hot water after mixing their hot fluid in their teammates' beverages. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that several Saginaw girls poured urine into fellow cheerleaders' soda.

When the victims mentioned an abnormal flavor in their drinks, the alleged pee providers said that they had added tart candy to the concoction. Before long, however, word spread that urine was the real source of the unpleasant taste.

Aghast parents want the offenders permanently kicked off the squad, and the AP reports that the girls have been suspended. While they will not be allowed to participate until the end of the current term, many feel that the school should go further. "They shouldn't be allowed to represent Saginaw," one father told the Star-Telegram.

Toy FAIL

If you were a young girl looking for a toy baby to play with (I Wasn't), you’d probably be like, “Man, these dolls are awesome. But you know what it’s missing? A moving baby penis that squirts urine (I hope) at me!” Well, fictional reader girl, your dreams have come true. Meet the UK’s Baby Wee Wee, the worst toy ever.

BOOTY-ISM???

To confirm that the ever regal ansd sacred Masters golf Tournament has offiially become a circus... just before Tiger Woods teed off a plane circled the hallowed grounds of Augusta with a banner in tow that read, "TIGER... DID YOU MEAN BOOTYISM??
and another banner reading "SEX ADDICT? YEAH, RIGHT. SURE. ME TOO!"








Tiger... I Am Your Father

Nike debut a new Tiger Woods ad. It features a stoic Tiger (stunner there) with the disembodied voice of his late father Earl Woods saying, "TIGER, I AM MORE PRONE TO BE INQUISITIVE, TO PROMOTE DISCUSSION. I WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT YOUR THINKING WAS. I WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT YOUR FEELINGS ARE. AND DID YOU LEARN ANYTHING?" (END QUOTE)
Creepy...? Yeah kinda'. Effective...? Compelling....? are other words you could apply. It's a ballsy move by Nike but I just don't know if this is the time for any ad featuring Tiger to come out... especially when the ad is trying to sell NOT a product but the spokesperson to the public. ALSO... consider that the late Mr. Woods was not the most honest and loyal husband either... just do it indeed.

Taiwan Idol .... Better Than American ??

I'm not impressed by any -except Crystal- contestants on American Idol/Karaoke - after "enduring" 2 hours of channel hopping last night I thought - there's gotta' be someone on YouTube that's a far better singer than ANYONE on American Idol - I mean it worked for Journey right? FOUND HIM!!! His name is Lin Yu Chun he sings Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" not an easy song to do - especially for a dude- on Super Star Avenue for $1,000,000. It is a game show similar to America's Got Talent or American Idol.
You be the judge.

4 Shining Moments

I'm at a crossroads... with the end of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament (Duke SUCKS by the way) I look forward to the "One Shining Moment" song/montage. The execs at CBS changed the song this year. They had it re-recorded by American Idol Alum Jennifer Hudson. It's different but I don't like it. Just put it up against the three previous singers and let's put it to a vote. Who's "One Shining moment" outshines the other and do you think they should change the singer every year? Discuss.

Jennifer Hudson - 2010


Luthor Vandross - 2002 - 2009


Teddy Pendegrass - 1994 -1999


David Barrett - 1987 -1993 / 2000 - 2002

Spare a Square of Glow Roll?


Your prayers have been answered. A company has invented glow-in-the-dark toilet paper. Why is this awesome? Think about it ...

  • It allows you to see the toilet roll clearly at night without having to turn the light on.
  • It would also be awesome to take along on your next camping trip because it would, I don't know, scare away bears?

SHUT UP!

One of the many Tiger Woods adulteresses, concubines, acquaintances....whores, Joslyn James also had a presser yesterday. She's the victim in all this (just as her lawyer) and is very quick to doll out life advice to Tiger. Life advice from a PORN STAR? Really?! What's next on the list of ridiculous sources of reason... maybe solid financial advice from Wall St. or maybe a how to remain sober via Lindsay Lohan.
Take it all in below.... which I believe is the name of one of Ms. James' "films".
Enjoy!

Must....Kill.... Peeps

Stampeep

Look inside your Easter basket. There's a package of Peeps in there, right? The little marshmallow chick or bunny is an Easter tradition, but some don't think too highly of the sugary, waxy treat. So these haters created a blog "100 Ways to Kill a Peep"

My Protsests Are Up Here


This past weekend, a mid-day protest featuring topless women failed to get the response they wanted. One of the organizers was 20-year-old Ty MacDowell. In her mind, the point of the protest was "that a topless woman out in public shouldn't attract any more attention than a man who walks around without his shirt." It didn't take long for the crowd to significantly out-number the protesters.
Adrianna Tibkey said "Marching was really, really fun. It's nice to know that going topless is legal here." True. There's no law against it in the state of Maine. No one was arrested. Not even the 500 guys with cameras. MacDowell added "I'm amazed -- actually enraged -- at the fact that there's a wall of men watching. Lots of people were taking pictures without even asking."
