I knew it would happen. I was the first person to invite him here actually.

Celebrity Mii Research Results

Uncovering the phenomenon that is creating celebrity lookalikes and personal dopplegangers called Miis on Nintendo’s Wii, my interest was sparked to find out what other Wii owners were creating. From some friends and family I’ve received a few well known faces: Oprah, Arnold, Johny Kerry and Rosanne. I myself have created the likes of G.O.B. from Arrested Development, Bigfoot and the man without a face (literally), to name a few. To try and find some other creations, I went to the only reliable source, the internet. After doing exhaustive studies at work on my free time, I have compiled some results as to what the most popular Mii creations are.  Plus I made a pie chart which means it’s fact.

Mii Celebrity Thereom 4.2
The most popular user generated Mii is Jesus followed by Hitler and then Michael Jackson.

I’d love to hear some interpretations of these results.  I would theorize a postulate but I don’t want to cloud what has been a strictly scientific process.

Elton John Bans Religion

Elton John enacted a verbal ban on religion today. Citing that religion creates hatred in people for gays, is un-compassionate, and does nothing about the conflicts of the world.

Except for the fact that religious charities receive the highest amount of contributions* that any other causes. And while PETA is taking naked pictures of Pam Anderson, the International Justice Mission is saving Indian girls from forced prostitution.

Elton showed himself to be pretty ignorant today, plus he’s gay so I hate him.

God’s Gonna Cut You Down

I bought Johnny Cash’s American Recordings V album in Bozeman, MT. It was fitting and the album is great. You could tell Mr. Cash was ready to go. My wife’s favorite track on the album is God’s Gonna Cut You Down. I believe it’s based off an old spiritual.

MTV has the new video up. Johnny is replaced in the video by a large list of big names.

My favorites:

Brian Wilson
Owen Wilson

The list mostly plays out as “if you can recognize them your hip”.

Except for Adam Levine, lead singer of Maroon 5. If you can recognize him your a 13-25 yr old girl who doesn’t have taste in music.

This Adam Levine, not this one.

The Dark Knight

I wonder if Tom is gonna let Katie be in the The Dark Knight (the Batman Begins sequel)?

Regardless The Prestige comes out this month…no katie and no mermaids, but I can’t wait to see it.

Jenna Elfman is not a hobbitfriend

Its been a while since I attacked Scientology. I probably shouldn’t because if you attack it, your probably a criminal and murderer.

Just in case you don’t want to be called a baby r@#$&#, buy this shirt to fit in.

EDIT: I’ve gotten reports that the site for the t-shirt cannot be visited from certain outlets so I’m posting the a picture below:

Brad Pitt Promotes Inter-Species Marriage

Brad Pitt, the prettiest girl at the ball, has decided to use his influence to better society. Forgetting that we could care less, Brad Pitt in an interview with Esquire magazine, unveiled his marriage plans:

“Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able.”

Pitt’s statement coincides with the beliefs of thousands of former Jerry Springer show guests who have been fighting endlessly to marry their own siblings.

After reading the interview today, over two-thousand people across the country flocked to their local courthouse only to find out that what Brad Pitt says means nothing…to anyone.

Steve Irwin

I was utterly shocked when I first heard of Steve Irwin’s death. My first and only reaction was disbelief. Throughout the day yesterday I found myself getting choked up while thinking about it and hearing co-workers chat about it.

Steve Irwin represented something pure and wholesome to me, in a debased culture. He loved the natural world, especially the most mysterious and dangerous parts of it. Irwin shared with us parts of this planet we can never know ourselves and he did it with child-like awe. He wasn’t some hired face, like we are used to seeing on tv, he did what he loved and he was the best at it. While speaking with my wife about it, she made the point that it’s so hard to believe because Steve seemed so invincible, he was a superman. When even superman is fallible who then can we look up to?

I don’t think there was anyone who didn’t like Steve Irwin. I’ve read countless articles and posts on the internet from every spectrum and everyone simply says they are sad he is gone. I once watched a show where Steve and his family travelled across the US in a motorhome visiting our national landmarks. I just keep playing over in my mind the scenes of him and his family (wife and two kids) happily playing and talking about what they cared about most.

I am going to try and remember Steve Irwin by not letting the muck of life take away the wonder of the natural world.

Paris Hilton Stars Are Blind

I knew you were all waiting for this so I’m giving it to you.

Paris Hilton’s Stars Are Blind Music Video.

For all of us who have ever wanted to watch a 5 minute long cologne commercial here it is. (sorry no mermaids though.)

According to Ms. Hilton herself:

“I can make it nice and naughty…im perfect for you”

Paris, i’ve never asked you to be nice or naughty. I simply asked you to crawl up in hole somewhere and you can’t even do that. I would consider that less than perfect. Also don’t text me while I’m at work anymore because I’m not gonna write you back. *sigh* She can be so needy sometimes she always wants vigorous cheering.
Great writeup on Paris’ CD sales

Free Katie

Tom Cruise got fired from paramount pictures this week. An executive was quoted saying they thought he was a great actor but:

“we don’t think that someone who effects creative suicide and costs the company revenue should be on the lot.”

Also an actor who is a member of a mind controlling cult that causes suicide among it’s members isnt great either.

Join the fight to Free Katie Holmes.
