If You Twang, You'll Get Twerpes
Have you heard about Twanging? I just learned about this today from someone else. Apparently, if you and another person send sexually explicit (cyber-sex type) banter back and forth to each other on Twitter, you are twanging (banging on Twitter).
Are you for real? Are people actually doing this!? I hope they get twerpes…..

It's Official....Aliens DO Exist!
Last night, I saw this movie called The Fourth Kind. It stars Milla Jovovich (as Dr. Abigail Tyler) and is based on actual events that occurred in Nome, Alaska in the early 2000’s. I’ve always been intrigued by the paranormal and don’t deny the existence of spirits and hauntings. However, I never really got to into the whole theory of extra-terrestrial (or alien) abductions.

Yes, Corey’s hurt people, and done...

Slash Is Overrated!!
So in today’s music world and especially in the rock scene, Slash has become a “legend” as a founding member of Guns N Roses. He was one of the reasons they were entertaining, but that is as far as it should go. He was part of the entertainment or the show aspect. Little do many fans of GNR know, that Izzy Stradlin (the guy who left during the Use Your Illusion touring cycle and...

Elvira Is Back!!
You remember Elvira, don’t you? Well she’s back with Movie Macabre after its first inception more than 20 years ago. It’s basically a show where she shows cheesy horror movies and talks about it. Check out the video below. She’s just about 60 years old, which I think would put her in the GILF category…but I could be wrong.
