Tina Fey-a-licious...Part Deux

Last night, Tina Fey revived her role as Sarah Palin...this time spoofing her interview with Katie Couric. Tina Fey should definitely be recognized for her acting ability!



CNN.com also did a write-up on her second appearance in her role as Sarah Palin... http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/TV/09/28/fey.palin.ap/index.html

It's Official...

...the college football world has been officially shaken up and turned upside down! See for yourself: http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard

It all started with a seemingly normal Thursday Night College Football game, featuring the USC Trojans and the Oregon State Beavers, playing in Corvallis, OR. Short version of that story is that the mighty Trojans didn't go home winners - they lost to Oregon State 27-21.

Saturday wasn't a good day for some other top-ranked teams either: Florida lost by 1 pt, Georgia got rolled by the Tide, Wisconsin was beaten in the Big House...can't wait to see the rankings tomorrow.

Of course, the blogs and comments have already started since the fall of the Men of Troy on Thursday night - the BCS needs a playoff system. Yes and no, I can see both sides.

On a side note, ESPN is hosting "Battle of the Bands and the Quest for the Crystal". :) Starting on September 29th, people can go to the special "Indiana Jones" themed micro site to vote for one of seven marching bands playing the "Indiana Jones" theme song. Of course, the marching band from Hollywood (USC Trojan Marching Band) is competing for this title...it wouldn't be an "Indiana Jones" themed contest if they weren't in it. :) http://promo.espn.go.com/espn/contests/indianajones/

Robert Van Winkle, Eat Your Heart Out...

Composed by my dear friend CC...

Robert Van Winkle, aka Vanilla Ice

IKE, IKE, BABY

Ike Ike Baby,​ Ike Ike Baby
All right​ stop,​ evacu​ate and liste​n
Ike is here with some big ambit​ion
Peopl​e,​ close​ your homes​ up tight​ly
It’s blowi​ng like a hurri​cane daily​ and night​ly
Where​ will it stop?​ Yo-I don'​t know
Turn off the light​s and let’s​ go
To the coast​line Ike rocks​ like a vanda​l
Start​ up the car and watch​ me drive​ like an anima​l

Dang,​ hardw​are store​ sales​ boom
Ike’s​ killi​ng my plans​ like a poiso​nous mushr​oom
Deadl​y,​ evacu​ate they tell me
Anyon​e left will be charg​ed with a felon​y
Love it or hate it, you bette​r get away
Ike will hit the bull'​s eye, the storm​ don'​t play
If you’r​e on vacat​ion,​ Yo, Ike stall​ed it
Check​ out the eye while​ the bands​ revol​ve it

Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby,​ Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby
Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby,​ Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby

Now that the peopl​e are jumpi​n’
With their​ stuff​ packe​d up and the gas done pumpi​n'​
Quick​ to the road,​ to the road no fakin​’
Pass McD’s​ get a burge​r with bacon​
Burni​n’ ‘em and follo​w the symbo​l
I go crazy​ when I hear some imbec​ile
Revvi​ng,​ in a soupe​d up Pinto​
Now I can roll,​ it's time to crack​ the windo​w
Rolli​n’ in my Chevy​ Tahoe​
With my windo​w down,​ I can feel Ike blow
My lapto​p’s on stand​by,​ Waiti​ng for some Wi-​fi
This spot hot? No – and I gotta​ fly
Kept on pursu​ing to the next block​
I buste​d a left and I'm beati​ng the clock​
The light​ was red

Yo -- so I conti​nued to I-37 to San Anton​io
Wish I was there​ in a blink​ like a jeani​e
How I’d love to be sippi​n’ a marti​ni
Jealo​us '​cause​ my girl’​s livin​g fine
She left yeste​rday and was there​ by nine
Ready​ to give my homie​s a call
My homie​s actin​g ill becau​se their​ car just stall​ed
Humid​ity,​ the air is stick​y as hell
Ike’s​ on his way, the weath​erman​ yells​
Movin​g towar​d the gulf coast​ real fast
I’m in my car, can’t​ give it no gas
Bumpe​r to bumpe​r the inter​state​’s packe​d
I'm tryin​g to get away befor​e Ike attac​ks
Polic​e on the scene​,​ what can it mean?​
They hooke​d me up, now there​’s anoth​er lane free
If you’r​e on vacat​ion,​ Yo, Ike stall​ed it
Check​ out the eye while​ the bands​ revol​ve it

Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby,​ Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby
Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby,​ Hurri​cane Ike Ike Baby

Yo man, let'​s get out of here.​.​.​.

​word to your mothe​r!

Ice, Ice, Baby...

Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it...

Californian View of America

Hysterical!

One thing to note, however, is the fact that Californians obviously only have a view of the lower 48 states. Hawaii and Alaska must be beyond their peripheral line of sight.

If I had to group Hawaii in there somewhere, it would be included with California, but labeled as "More Awesome". Don't forget the 808!
