AshleyMadison: Personals site making it easier for married peeps to cheat
Hey, married people need sex and appreciation too!! Why should single people be the only one's getting laid and being told how hot or cool they are all the time? There is even a smart phone app for it, let's look at all the fun facts shall we?
-AshleyMadison's membership has doubled over the past year to 4 million
-Traffic to AshleyMadison tripled after Father's Day
-Traffic to the site rose after Valentine's Day and Mother's Day
-92% of males on the site are married or otherwise attached, as are 60% of female members
The number one reason the majority of experts say people in marriage cheat??
They feel unappreciated or sexually neglected. Do the person you promised to love and take care of forever a favor: Sex them mighty good and tell them how much you care about them and what they mean to you often. If you can't do either with sincerity, set them free and search for someone you can have that with.
The government is making you a fatty
I was watching movies from the 50's and 60's realizing everyone was pretty much the same size. NOT the case now. My mom said there only used to be sizes 4-12 in stores, no one needed anything different. She said they used oil, cream and butter (present day no no's) to cook but since the portions were NORMAL and people led active lifestyles, no one was overweight. Well it's not just portion control to blame that 60% of American's are now overweight. Read the horror story below.....
Your friends order nachos at happy hour, you tell yourself you'll have just a few...and then you find yourself diving in with abandon.
Sound familiar?
You'll be happy (or disgusted) to learn that your willpower never stood a chance against that gooey plateful of temptation. See, those nachos—and dozens of other sinful eats—have been scientifically engineered to make you want to eat more…and more, says former FDA commissioner David A. Kessler, M.D., in his new exposé, The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite (Rodale, 2009).
Here's how this deviousness works: Human beings have what food-industry insiders call a "bliss point," a nirvana of the taste buds triggered by particular amounts of salt, sugar, and fat. Menu scientists (yes, that's a job!) at popular restaurant chains and packaged-food corporations use their knowledge of the bliss point to manipulate your appetite, adding salt, sugar, and fat to their products in combinations designed to create hedonism on a plate—a taste experience so intense that it kicks the brain's pleasure system into overdrive. It's like a drug. And like any drug, it leads you to obsess about that moment of pleasure so much that you'll do almost anything to prolong or relive it. The result: a bigger bottom line for them—and a bigger waistline for you.
NOTE: Thanks America, as if being overweight and then having to lose weight isn't hard enough you design food that makes it almost impossible. You also design food that is proven to cause heart disease and be the leading cause of death in America. THE LEADING CAUSE. And food like this is FDA approved. Food manufactures make 3900 calories worth of food per person per day even though the recommended amount is 2000 calories. Every person could send half of their calories to a starving person abroad and still be completely satisfied. Buuuuut America has a litttle problem called hyper production of corn, which is why it's in our gasoline and which is why high fructose CORN syrup, one of the most harmful substances in food, is put into almost every prepackaged item on the market. Not a conspiracy theory, start knowing what is in your food and WHY!!!!!!
Missy Elliott Ready to Party again
Missy Elliott is gearing up to release her first album in three years. Tentatively titled "Block Party" and due in September, the release is the follow-up to 2005's "The Cookbook."
Tracks on the new album, Elliott's seventh, include the drum-heavy "Hip-Hop Don't Die"; the sensual "Milk & Cookies," on which Elliot lightheartedly harmonizes about her capabilities in the bedroom; and first single "Best Best."
Excerpt from an interview with Missy Elliot:
CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE INFLUENCE OF GO-GO ON THE NEW SONGS?
I love go-go. It has somewhat of an African twist to it with the drums. Something about it feels really good. I have friends that live in (Washington) D.C. and back in the day I didn't understand that music at all. It sounded like a bunch of trash cans. It wasn't until I went to see the D.C.-based group Red Essence at a club. I tell you, I've been to a trillion clubs, but none like a go-go club. People are in there dirty dancing. It was hot. It's a whole different ballgame. Ever since then, I've been wanting to do a go-go record. Go-go's been around for so long but it's never made it across the country or across the world even. The world hasn't had a chance to see D.C. people get off on their music. That's why I did the track "Shake Your Pom Pom," which is most definitely go-go-esque.
NOTE: Is Missy poised to bring real dancing back?? If anyone could do it it'd be Michael Jackson, after that, I swear, is Missy Elliot! And she can bring back music videos t00...
Bernie Madoff Sentenced to 150 Years
Good Riddance. Not bad for a guy who stole BILLIONS from his best friends, Holocaust victims and many charities and non-profit businesses, among other people. Widows entrusted their life savings with him, people invested the money that would go to their children's education and future with him. I read a lengthy and telling article about him in Vanity Fair. It describes the whole situation, Madoff's life and family and the huge fall out from people going from millionaire to penniless with just one phone call. Not everyone is handed wealth, some people work for it for a long time, it's hard to swallow when they are robbed of years and years of work due to one man's unbelievable greed. What do you do at 75 when you suddenly have no money?

A bit of a shy one though.
Maybe you see this.

5 Things I hope Happen in the Wake of Michael Jackson's Death
It was a rough weekend, but felt good to hear Michael Jackson on the radio aaalll weekend, and hear different tributes at various shows. It makes you realize how amazing his career and the Jackson 5 times were, such emotive, powerful songs that force you to move and bond you with the stranger next to you. I'm hoping MJ's death will not be in vain and will bring about a renaissance in dance and music that is much needed. I think people who loved Michael Jackson are mostly sad because it leaves us with a bleak future of watered down music you can't dance to. Will anyone affect and suprise us that way anymore? Can anyone top the moonwalk? Will anyone even try? We want the party back, the good times, the high spirits, the fucking MAGIC...There is a reccession and war going on, the last thing we needed was for a global hero to die....
I Hope:
1. ....Dancing will make a comeback. No one dances anymore and if they do they are perceived to be drunk or attention whores. Michael made dancing, of any kind, cool. Shit EVERYONE used to dance!! It makes you feel like you have no cares in the world, it's free, there are no side affects (unless you pull the crazier spectrum of moves and shouldn't) it will de fatten America, why not?
2. ....Great music videos will come out. Pouring champagne in the Hummer hot tub? Driving around in the backseat of a car for three minutes? Give me a break, it's no wonder MTV stopped playing music videos, give em a reason to get back to their roots! (Missy Elliot's new album and subsequent videos should spark some creativity as well).
3. ...There will be tons of tribute tours and concerts. That people will want to fill MJ's void so much they are inspired (again) by his legacy.
4. ...Pitchfork will suck a dick. This one is personal. Here is their reaction to MJ's death: Yikes
5. ...This whole indie, self absorbed, minimalist "music about MY pain, MY life, MY awkardness, MY break ups, MY" will just fucking eeeeeeend. Who cares about YOU? You're capatalizing off of your standoffish, self centered shame of a personality. Let's make big, grand music that makes you want to dance and rock out again!! Music has screeched to such a fucking halt that I swear to god some 80 pound whispering chick playing one note on a vintage guitar is going to be Pitckforks next celebrated music!!
RIP OxiClean Guy
I love infomercials and Billy Mays was like the Michael Jackson of them. What a horrible month of celebrity death....Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Mays and my beloved Mikey. Billy M always seemed like a nice guy and he could sell the SHIT outta this stuff. And you know what? He really WAS stoked because OxiClean does rule. It can do anything, it edited my resume one time.

You called me at 1:30 AM to tell me over and over that you don't want to be with me any more.
The problem is, I don't know who you are, and I tried to explain that.
In retrospect, it would have been more fun to play along, but I was a bit too groggy to think fast.
Oh well, next time a wrong number breaks up with me, I'll be ready.
Give me a call if you want to practice dumping guys, I guess my number's probably in your phone now.
Try to call before 10 though.

SECRET SHOW REVEAL: Death Cab For Cutie Playing Intimate Show at Belly Up, July 3rd
I am BUMMED I can't make this show at awesome Solana Beach venue, The Belly Up Tavern. I will be shrooming for the 4th of July weekend with my beloved's in beautiful Ojai, CA. We'll be seeing Death Cab on the following Sunday at The Hollywood Bowl. I am part of the Death Cab fan club ( I only joined so I could get presale tickets to the Hollywood Bowl show) and just got an e-mail that first access to presale tickets begins Saturday, June 27 at 12pm Local Venue Time. Tickets are limited and offered on a first come, first serve basis. Not sure when regular tickets go on sale. The show isn't even announced on the Belly Up website!
Happy One Year Anniversary!!
...too all the men and women married on June 16th, 2008 when gay marriage was still legal in the state of California. Even though the state has changed it's mind about the legality of true love between same sex couples (?!) this doesn't meant we can progress to the point where all people ARE truly equal!!
(Tomorrow Urban Mo's is congratulating all the CA gay newlyweds by offering drink specials from 2-7 PM, long live love!!)

The Counting Crows Summer Tour!!!!
YAY!!!!! I was seriously bummed when they had to cancel their last San Diego show due to some band illness. We had skipped Maroon 5 in order not have to see them and to get drunk in the parking lot for a raging Counting Crows show only to walk up to the door WASTED and find out they had canceled. Sobering up in a Chula Vista parking lot with that type of disappoint was not cool.

Michael Jackson Dead!?
CNN is only saying he was rushed to the hospital, TMZ is reporting he died!?!?!
NOO!!!!! I was in a Michael Jackson fan club in High School. I knew this day would come, but so soon?
Sarcastic Quip: Way to steal Farrah Fawcett's thunder
Sarcastic Quip 2: If you are faking your death, you shoulda done that awhile ago when you had any shreds of dignity left to save.
A fan's lament: I love you Michael!! Don't stop till you get enough!!
FROM TMZ:
Michael Jackson Dies
Posted Jun 25th 2009 5:20PM by TMZ Staff
Michael JacksonWe've just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.
Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.
A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived.
Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but they had no luck.
We're told one of the staff members at Jackson's home called 911.
LaToya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

RIP Farrah Fawcett
Farrah Fawcett, the blonde-maned actress whose best-selling poster and "Charlie's Angels" stardom made her one of the most famous faces in the world, died Thursday. She was 62.
Farrah Fawcett rose to fame in the 1970s, thanks to a best-selling poster and the hit show "Charlie Angels."
Fawcett, who checked into a hospital in early April, had been battling anal cancer on and off for three years.
"Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world," said Ryan O'Neal, Fawcett's romantic partner since the mid-1980s.

Girl with 56 stars tattooed on face admits she asked for them
A teenage girl who claimed 56 stars were tattooed on her on her face as she slept when she asked for three has admitted she was awake the whole time – and lied because her father was "furious".
Read More Here
Oh man that girl is only 18! I wanted my entire back covered with all the places I've lived when I was 18. Now I count my lucky stars (ha) that I didn't go through with it. I've got 3 stars on my foot that I adore but FACE tattoos?? Check out the crazy bitch below. Turns out Golden Palace is an online casino....Ahhh the powerful draw of crack....

So what's up with THAT lately?? What a bunch of drama for noting. I only ask because Chris Rock mention's it in this aiight movie Down to Earth from back in 2001. Also from that movie:
"If you're good looking, you're gonna succeed through life. If you're ugly, you better pick up a book."
"What's God like? I don't know, but the devil's got some good weed!"
"My dad was so cheap that when we went to bed, he'd unplug the clocks. 'You can't tell time when you asleep!"

Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland, out 2010
A big crew of mine cooked weed brownies and went to see Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We'd been anticipating this event for like a year! But. The brownies never fucking kicked in and the remake of the much loved movie sucked even harder. Can't wait to see if Burton can nail this one. Also hope the GD brownies work this time...

Some Great Places to Shroom in Las Vegas
Outside of some the ridiculous and bizarre people that head to Vegas it can be a wonderful place to shroom! Where else do colors change rapidly all around you, fountains burst from nowhere, and Paris, New York, Venice, and Ancient Greece can all be found on one street?? If you ask me Vegas was built for people on drugs if not people who don't mind taking a step into this architectural playground with an acceptant and open mind. Once you get past the gambling and debauchery (if that is a problem for you) you can lock down the on the joyous (and trippy) feeling of Vegas. It's built to have fun, you can do anything you want there, and anything is possible!!
Last weekend a friend and I made an impromptu visit to Vegas to relax and get away from San Diego. We also had a huge sack of shrooms to mess around with. After taking one night to go out dancing and drinking we shroomed the next night. We had scouted a few hotels we thought might be nice to view on shrooms the day before. Basically you want shiny things or colors, moving orbs or things that will feel good to touch like water and smooth texture. We only hit a few hotels but I can only imagine the shroomability of a city filled with wonderful sights, sounds and things to trip out on!! Below are just a few recommendations for shroom tripping in Sin City!
The Bellagio: Probably the number one place to shroom in Vegas. The clientele is less ghetto and therefore less trippy. Also, the fountains dazzle on shrooms and the entry way of hundreds of colored glass lilly pads will delight for a looooong time. They even took the liberty to have trippy paintings that were totally moving on shrooms and then not moving on our return visit sober (actually stoned) the next day. Check out the chocolate fountains and of course, their huge and fanciful flower garden!!
Planet Hollywood: I had never been in this hotel. I've always regarded PH as sort of a budget Hard Rock but it was incredible!! The Casino is spacious and filled with hot dealers, there are even go-go dancers. The best part is the entire color of the bar changes on a wide spectrum of colors every five seconds or so, that was great!! They also have enormous crystal diamond orbs changing color everywhere. We took a seat and just watched the colors change, nice!!
Paris: The visual stimulation can get overwhelming so we dipped over to Paris and sat under the faux Arc de Triupmh for awhile. The cool marble felt nice to lay down on and it's a great view of Vegas. We had the whole thing to ourselves and it felt like we were hanging out in abandoned France. A nice quiet respite that's still in the Vegas action.
Note: Do not shroom in Vegas for the first time unless you take less than a half 8th (probably only going to get the happiness and body high's at the point). Make sure you are around people you like and feel comfortable with. There are tons of people and you might not like having to dodge all around them or might not feel comfortable staring at a ceiling for 25 minutes straight. Have music in your room on for when you come back to relax to and ride the body highs, giggles and general abundant feelings of well being when you come down.
Less than useful definitions for the average Joe: Racketeering
A racket is an illegal business, usually run as part of organized crime. Engaging in a racket is called racketeering.
Several forms of racket exist. The best-known is the protection racket, in which criminals demand money from businesses in exchange for the service of "protection" against crimes that the racketeers themselves instigate if unpaid (see extortion). A second well known example is the numbers racket, a form of illegal lottery.
Traditionally, the word racket to describe a business is based on the example of the "protection racket" and indicates that the speaker believes that the business is making money by selling a solution to a problem that it created (or that it intentionally allows to continue to exist), specifically so that continuous purchases of the solution are always needed. Example: in a protection racket, a representative from the racket informs a storeowner that a fee of X dollars will be required every month for protection money, though the "protection" that is provided comes in the form of the racket itself not causing damage to the store or its employees.

I'll Take My Shoes To Go
It has been asserted that women in the UK are smarter per capita than US women. Here is yet another reason to prove the point. Instead of walking around with a grimace in heels that are reducing the bones and muscles in your feet to pulp and instead of walking around barefoot after the bars close dodging hypodermic needles women across the pond need merely to spend 7 pounds to get a pair of Rollasoles. They are surprisingly cute ballet flats (4 colors) that are sold in VENDING machines outside of clubs and restaurant in London. Instead of losing the function in your feet or contracting HIV you get a pair of flats in a pretty box with a nice bag to store them in afterward. Brilliant!
