Guess which former president  just joined Facebook? What 4 year old daughter of a movie star already has an iPad?  What does Bill Gates think of the iPad?  Answers to these burning questions here.

George W Bush is on the internets!  You can find him now at www.facebook.com/georgewbush.  He’s also on Twitter if you care. CNN has the story.  This makes sense since he’s got a book coming out in November.

In addition to having over 100 pairs of shoes Suri Cruise also has an iPad.  Whatever Suri, I’m like totally jealous.  Read more about it at Gawker.

While we’re talking iPad, watch Bill Gates give his opinion of the new device on last night’s Larry King Live.

Awkward!  You think he’s a lil’ jealous?

New Ben And Jerry’s Flavor For Bonnaroo

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Cool!  It’ll be available on May 4th.  See what ingredients are in it here.  Yum!

From Paste Magazine:

After having paid tribute to Bonnaroo staples such as Phish and Dave Matthews Band with ice cream flavors like “Phish Food” and “One Sweet Whirled,” the kings of frozen confections are treating the festival itself to a signature flavor this year.

“Bonnaroo Buzz” will be featured at the festival this summer and in Ben & Jerry’s shops around the country. If the new confection gains popularity, Ben & Jerry’s will give it the real star treatment by rolling it out in pint form to grocery stores.

The new flavor contains “light coffee & malt ice cream with whiskey caramel swirls & English toffee pieces.” You can try it yourself at participating Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops May 4, at the ice cream’s official Flavor Release Party.

Here it is, the annual Swimsuit Edition of Sports Illustrated.  The cover girl is Andy Roddick’s wife Brooklyn Decker.  Is it me, or does that name sound like a sandwich?  Seeing these photos are making me hungry.

Dlisted tipped me off about this video and I talked about it on my show today.  Here’s Brett Favre singing General Larry Platt from American Idol’s  “pants on the ground” in the locker room.  Oy.

Gucci 3D Glasses Coming

There is so much hype with 3-D lately!!  Between Avatar and now ESPN coming out with a 3-D channel we had to do something.  We’re going one step further than 3D with ALL D  for Radio Free Lunch!! Wednesday’s playlist will be ARTISTS that start with the letter D.  First or last name will work (Bob Dylan).  Delightful!!

Freaking out on the inside!

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

OMGOMGOMG!  Mara and I were walking down the street, all of a sudden I heard “Gwen on the left, Gwen on the left”. Mara spotted GWEN STEFANI. So of course we went into the Tom’s Toy’s to stalk check out the toys and possible Gwen purchases. When we went in she had Zuma on her hip, and her son Kingston was picking out a toy for a birthday party. Naturally we were eavesdropping, and found out that he could pick out one toy for himself. Oh, she also called Kingston “James”, hmmmm.  Then we went to the back of the store, because we were only in the store to pick out a toy for Charlie, and when I was just standing there freaking out on the inside, when all of a sudden I realized I was looking at GAVIN sitting on the floor playing with one of the kids.

We did not go and talk to them or take pics in the  store because they were with the kids. There was paparazzi outside the store. So we went across the street, and it was on. We felt so guilty taking pictures because of the kids, but oh well. They are used to it.

PS: They were walking right behind us down the street. It made us really nervous. Ok, so we are may-jah hobo’s, but that was such a L.A. moment, and I am still freaking out a lil’.

Moon Unit

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

We’re getting on the Twilight hype bandwagon by playing vampire songs for Thursday’s Radio Free Lunch.  Anything to do blood, garlic, biting, etc, etc will work.

Are you excited to see New Moon?

Unfriend

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

This is the Dictionary’s new word of the year.  It makes sense because everyone is on Facebook these days.  There are only a few people I’ve had to “unfriend” from FB (for political rants and overall creepiness). If you feel the need to post “25 things you don’t know about me” on my page, I don’t give a s**t unless you are Dolly Parton (she’s in US Magazine this week with this).  Same with a drink request (what?), a kiss (excuse me?) vampire wars (huh?) and join my group! (no thanks!). And I’m thinking Katie Couric (“the perky one”) is definitely going to “unfriend” Sarah Palin after yesterday’s interview with Oprah.

Name This Decade?

Monday, November 16th, 2009

We have the 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, etc.  What do we call the period between 2000 and 2009?  The 00’s? The New York Times had an interesting article about this on Sunday.  Any suggestions?

Leave Bruce Alone!

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Not everyone thinks it’s funny that Bruce is the butt of jokes.
