Los Lobos, the band that brought the world La Bamba (you’ll know it when you hear it, even if you didn’t know the actual title) is back for more. The Chicano rock band is scheduled to release a new album on August 3. Los Lobos has been performing since the 70′s, but they’ve embraced the [...]

In a recent post, I discussed earworms. Several people wrote to suggest songs that were earworms… And then I found this: A mash-up of all the Top 25 hits of 2009. I have listened to it non-stop since yesterday. If this doesn’t get you happy and excited for the weekend, may I suggest a two [...]

If you love Paris, and you love spying on people, then Paris Live is for you. The borderline creepy/awesome site features six webcams strategically placed around the Eiffel Tower, so you can view the tower (which looks exactly the same from the front and back) at all hours of the day. What’s really fun are [...]

Anyone who likes their sports stars coupled with the SNL cast (sports with a side of comedy!) was watching the ESPY’s, ESPN’s annual award show the other night. It’s the one time of the year where pop culture meets sports- “like being in a Kardashian sister’s bedroom,” host Seth Meyers said. The only bit I [...]

“What woman wears the same outfit for 70 years?” That’s the question DC comics writer J. Michael Straczynski asks us. The answer? No one, not even Wonder Woman. She’s got a whole new rough gal get-up–no more stripes and certainly no more glitter. We say: Ick. Some questions for you to ponder: Who is even [...]

Ladies, the man who doesn’t look like your man, but could smell like your man, Isaiah Mustafa, is back with a new installment of the ever-so-clever, rhetorical question-sprinkled, Old Spice commercial. I always wonder, who is the Mad Man (or Woman) who comes up with these? Almost makes me want to try out some Old [...]

Few things make me happier than Devo’s wonderfully catchy and equally cheesy “Whip It“. But the 80′s techno band, headed by Mark Mothersbaugh, has topped themselves. To celebrate the release of their new album, “Something for Everybody”, the producers held a listening party–for cats. The entire thing was livestreamed earlier this week, but you can [...]
