I love Playboy, but this is extreme

I browse Playboy news daily on Google News and today I came across this:
Playboy.com and Kendra Wilkinson From The Girls Next Door Search for Sexiest 'Girls of Olive Garden'
"Who needs endless breadsticks when zesty girls are on the menu? Playboy.com is searching for the sexiest "Girls of Olive Garden" to pose for a tasty pictorial. With more than 600 Olive Garden locations throughout the United States, Playboy.com is confident it will uncover the freshest ingredients for its sexiest "Girls Of" pictorial yet."
The kicker is at the bottom:
"Playboy.com's "Women of Olive Garden" model search is not affiliated with Olive Garden."
We're not getting any money from "The Garden" here? Come on!

Yeah, it's real. I guess Hef decided he'd throw Kendra a bone (no pun intended) since Holly gets to look for the 55th Anniversary Playmate. But really... Girls of the Olive Garden? For some reason, that strikes me as more strange than Girls of McDonalds, Starbucks, and Enron. Maybe I'm just weird.

As Predicted, Ambre Wins Rock of Love

Last night, Ambre won the season finale of Rock of Love. I could say that I didn't see it coming except for the fact that I made a post predicting this a month and a half ago. Pats on the back are appreciated. All douchebaggery aside, I was sad to see the show end (not that it's REALLY over) but happy to see Ambre win.

I'm sure there are people that are sad because Daisy lost. Alex has a minor infatuation with the girl. Apparently, she's the niece of Oscar De La Hoya. Who cares slash huh? I personally do not give a shit about Daisy. If you do, you can buy her (shitty) music on Daisy De La Hoya's MySpace profile. Does it make me gay if the most interesting thing to me about Daisy is her ex-boyfriend Charles? At least he brings an element of shiftiness and even more eye makeup, tats, and bandanas to a show that already had more than its fair share. He came on during the "bring on the exes" episode. It's a good thing that it was on DVR because Alex and I could review the replay to confirm that Charles has 4 bandanas on his person at any time. He also opts for extra-formal just like Bret by going hat over bandana. You have to love a guy that can apparently afford steroids, a gym membership, and make up but doesn't pay rent and plays in a band. Can't you just see greatness in him?

Charles has sweet eyebrows

Unfortunately, I was not spot on with my prediction. Bret Michaels bounced both of the old women in the early going. I thought he'd (read: the producers) keep the less heinous one. I thought it would be the old girl plus Megan (the hottest) and Ambre (eventual winner). I have plans to call Megan and interview her about the show and her undying love for me... but I'm lazy. You can leave suggested questions in the comments and maybe it'll help me get around to it...

OCD Poll: Is it OK to strike a woman?

Sean Connery thinks so in this classic video clip. Discuss. Thanks for sending this in, Brad!



OCD Quote of the Day

"Johnson was quoted as telling the Daily News that plenty of men try to grope women on subways, and admitted he's been doing it for more than 25 years since he saw another man rub against a woman on a train and dash away unpunished."

From the New York Post article describing Freddie Johnson, a "chronic groper" on New York subways...

Xavier de Rosnay @ Le Royale 4/12/08

We got to Le Royale at about 11:15. We hung out by the bar for about 10 minutes trying to figure out exactly what was going on. It seemed every empty and didn't seem like anybody around us was interested in music. Then we realized that there was an upstairs area. On the upper floor, there was another bar and then a dance floor area with bottle service tables surrounding it. Some guy that was definitely not Xavier was manning the decks when we arrived. It was great because Alex thought that it was going to be 100% hipsters and their weird fashion, so he was rocking a 1980's olympics hat and a sweatband. I tried to explain that the core demographic was "white kids", which is much wider demographic that isn't necessarily "down" with hipsters. He looked a little bit out of place.

Alex and I felt like something was off as scanned the crowd from a good spot along the rail. The small pockets of people didn't reallly seem to be meshing. It was still early, but it didn't seem like we were dealing with a cohesive group. My theory was that the key skill required for attending this event was internet savvy. You had to buy tickets on Going.com. We stood in a line when we first arrived because kids WITHOUT tickets were lining up. So I think it was just a lot of random people that would never hang out otherwise. Alex still had hope that a dance party would break out (and I didn't think he was wrong), so we decided to perform an experiment. He bet that the dance party would take over the dance floor within 30 minutes, so I set the timer on my iPhone. The 30 minute time period passed quickly and there was still no dance party.

At this point, Alex started to feel sick, so we stepped outside for some fresh air. That was good and bad... we saw the next DJ show up with (with his apprentice/bitch carrying his mixer). Five minutes later, we saw Xavier trying to cross the street. He was with his girl (pretty blonde girl that looked similar to Rachel Hunter) and they stood outside for a good 20 minutes. I guess now is a good time to reveal that both of us forgot to bring our cameras... so fucking stupid. I did find one video from the performance ... it went up an hour ago -- I love the internet. You can tell that the dance/scream party got bumping much later on. This video is of Xavier rocking the Phantom II Soulwax Remix.

Official Chris Duncan French DJ Impression

DJ ceedunk


I've been lucky enough to get my hand on some trendy jackets lately. The one in the upper left belongs to Chris V from The Beasts of Eden... it's bloody awesome. The jacket in the bottom right is Lisa K's... yes, a women's jacket. Just a tad too small to rock legitimately. I just think it's funny to compare that style to Xavier de Rosnay of Justice. I think I'm going to have to get myself some of this hipster garb. I think there actually is a guy that goes by "DJ ceedunc" (he's from England).

Coincidentally, I'm going to see Xavier de Rosnay from Justice at Le Royale tonight in New York Fucking City. I'm pretty excited. I didn't know about this at all until like Thursday. Hopefully, he actually plays some Justice stuff. None of "my bitches" (yeah right) wanted to come, so I have to bring Mr. Handsome with me. Hopefully we can get some good video or pictures... or pick up some hot hipster chicks.

Official Chris Duncan Under Attack

I don't really know if any of you noticed or cared about that picture of Kiefer Sutherland (I thought it was funny). In any case, Kiefer Sutherland fans did. The day that I posted that picture and the day after had two of the highest visitor totals in the short life of this site. A few Kiefer fan sites posted the picture (specifically 24headquarters.com and kiefersutherlandhome.com) and I'm guessing they all got a kick out of it.

There were some who did not like my post. They had no problem with the picture itself, but my description of the picture was out of line. Posters on the site the Kiefers Place forum felt that I had portrayed Kiefer in a bad light by putting "(drinking)" in a sentence. First of all, it was half joking. Second, this is from a guy who just got out of jail for a DUI and has a YouTube video of him tackling a Christmas tree. It's true, he could be the every-man who says, "I want to get a snack before a turn in. I want to be among the people... $1.25 Gray's Papaya hot dogs for me!" Or he's a drunk guy who wants to stuff his face with a few ill-advised greasy snacks before passing out.

From Lady Sutherland:

Oh I DETEST how all these kinds of articles always seem to KNOW that Kiefer was up drinking.
How? HOW!? DAMMIT!
The guy looks tired. And hot dogs are 2am? Who cares? If the guy is hungry, HE'S HUNGRY!
Leave him the hell alone!
Seriously, I'd give Michael a run for his money and be Kief's bodyguard. The guy needs to be left alone
But he is looking good!


From NikiLLxD:

Totally agree Mel!
He looks tired! Maybe he had a couple of drink! But for christ shake! That doesn't mean he was DEAD DRUNK!
And whatever! Had a drink or not?! He was out having some fun! Just because he is famous, it doesn't mean he's not aloud


The man just got out of jail for a DUI arrest and has a YouTube video of him tackling a Christmas Tree. I think it's fair to say if my friend said he seemed a little tipsy that he could have been drinking. In any case, these people are a little bit on the crazy side. Here's a sampling of some of the pictures in their profiles that shed a little more light on their bias.





My personal favorite is the coy shirt tug on the right side of the second picture. I'm waiting for "Lady Sutherland" to approve my membership to their forum so I can reply to their posts. If you want to check out the thread, you can find it here.
