Qaddafi - the height of being a fashionista


Wow - who knew that being a dictator would enable a person to become a fashion icon?

I don't normally read Vanity Fair, but this article caught my eye. And, oh by the way, who cares if Michelle Obama wears shorts to see the Grand Canyon?

recent movie reviews - Bruno, District 9, Orphan

oh yeah - Movies Reviews as of late:

Bruno - Difficult to watch. The same premise as his Cohen's other characters, gratuitous gay sex acts, and some appalling revelations of what people will do to get their kids in movies. Don't see in theaters, with children, and only on DVD if you have 2 hours of your life to kill.

District 9 - Good movie. Good story, and somewhat mirrors the apartheid's travesties in South Africa. A little scifi with funny accents.

Orphan - I hate the character of the little girl in this movie, and despite being somewhat predictable, this may be the best horror movie I've ever seen. Worth seeing.

Lance going back to his roots?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLQrO0l4gjY&NR=1

In his comments after winning the Leadville 100 MTB race, Lance Armstrong speculates on racing in triathlons.

This could be another amazing boost. to one of the fastest growing sports in America. Really looking at the sport of cycling, whether intentionally or not, Lance has done tremendous things to increase awareness of cycling in the United States.

very cool
