August Everywhere
After taking a little rest from blogging to focus on my move and the relaunch of "Reality Remix," I'm back!
Some random musing on things that have happened over the past few weeks...
- Checked out the a taping of the new "Family Feud" hosted by John O'Hurley on Saturday. I'm not going to spoil things, BUT I have a really good feeling about this season. The set is a mix of classic and new. There's one thing that returns that I'm sure many fans of the original won't be op-POSE-d to. As I was telling people there, it's feels familiar, but fresh at the same time. And John O'Hurley...he does a really, really good job. It's great to see somebody who can "host" on the show again. He gives the show a touch of class and has a command and authority over the show that's been missing the past several years. He's quite a nice guy too who seems geuninely enthusiastic and excited to be hosting the show. Definitely keep an eye on this one when it returns in September.
- "Flavor of Love 2" premiered last night and it didn't fail to deliver. That was 90 minutes of brilliance. Too many great moments to talk about...Punches thrown in the first TEN minutes of the show...Sapphire praying to god for forgiveness for "beating that bitch's ass" AND for thinking about "beating that bitch's ass" again...and of course, the poop...POOP on the stairs. And all in the first episodes!
- With multiple Apple computers in the house equipped with iSight cams and iChat, I can finally host a home game of "Tattletales!" Now, I just have to find some giant headphones...
- "I Don't Feel Like Dancing," the new video by the Scissor Sisters has been released and is up on this blog. The song is Leo Sayer-tastic...and I mean that in a good way. The new album's not here soon enough! The video's a little freaky...disembodied Jake Shears face...AHHH!
- Recently we had "So You Think You Can Dance's" Ivan and Natalie in the "Remix" studio and they were so sweet...Pic to come later today...Loving this season of the show. The top six and especially the top four are so good.
- I picked up a board game recently (per the suggestion of my friend Mike) that I highly recommend. Wits and Wagers - think the educated guess questions from "Card Sharks" or the qualifying questions from "Greed" (hee!) mixed in with a dash of "The Price is Right" and touched up with a bit of good ol' betting. The game moves at a clip and is easy for anybody to pick up. Here's hoping that a 2nd edition comes out to help replenish the questions supply!
- Tried the new McDonald's Snack Wrap...not so good...the cheese don't mesh too well with the bland Chicken Selects strips...stick to the Twister from KFC if you're gonna go that route.

Tell us, has the "DOUBLE THE POINTS!" pop been eliminated?
