Eivør - Trøllabundin
One thing I must say first, I know my last post was a song from ms. Eivør but I love this song so much I had to post it and I didn’t want to wait.
Time lapsed Northern Lights with “Eivør Pálsdóttir- Den liuse dag for”.
Thought I would changed thing’s up a bit instead of giving you a hot asian man I thought I would show what hot asian men make…. Absolutely Adorable Asian babies. Oh how I want to adopt one of these precious little babies.
Random picture I found of Park Jaebum of Korea I believe he is a singer or rapper or some sort of pop icon all i know is he was in some band or group and he is hot as hell.
p.s. thinking of setting one day a week as the random hot asian boy day.
squidpenny asked I feel that you needed to see these.

These are the dumbest most ridiculous things I have ever seen and I want them. I don’t know where I would wear them but I would find an excuse maybe for a midnight excursion to the porn shop to look at hooker shoes.
Does the Election season ever really end?
So we are a year and a half into the 43rd Presidency and all anyone can talk about is who is going to run in the next election. Of course any candidate put forth by the Republican party will only be the opposite side of the same damn coin and it doesn’t matter what side your looking at it isn’t worth one bit more than the other. So why don’t we all just put our partisanship aside and vote for the one clear choice, the only one who can bring our true and unavoidable fate into reality. I speak of course of Lord Cthulhu and the inevitable fate that your going to die eventually. So why put of till tomorrow what you can do today, Vote Cthulhu, vote for real change you can die for. 
I want this kitchen. I want the whole house but i’d settle for the kitchen. I think I could actually live in this kitchen alone.
I don’t remember where I got this but it was in my file of hot Asian men. I was going to do a lengthier post and get back into the swing of things but I have a terrible headache and I’m going to bed early so enjoy this beautiful Asian boy in the mean time.
Adele
Rolling in the Deep
I absolutely adore Adele, I just heard this relatively new song by her and had to share.
Concert in an Egg Oil on Canvas
The original was done by the master Hieronymus Bosch but only a copy by one of his followers survies today. We all know by now he is one of my favorite artists of all time but I felt the need to post this after I came across it looking for examples of early Celtic pottery. How the search engine found this searching for pottery I haven’t a clue but I took it as a sign to post this image.
WTF is up with the Grammys
OK first I just want to say that I had originally written this the day after the Grammys along with many other post but not only did the queue not post them (no surprise there) but tumbler ate them all together. So now I have to go back and redo all of them.
With that said let us move on to the topic at hand. Usually if you watch an award show you would expect to see people receiving awards, but apparently the good people at the Grammy Academy did not get that memo. All in all I believe about 5 awards were actually presented even though the Grammy Academy awarded Grammys in over 80 categories. Now I do not expect to see every single award handed out many of them are in obscure things that most people do not care much about like best native american music album, best world traditional music, etc. but I I would like to see more than 5. If you missed the show the formula for the schedule was simple, Popular musicians from completly different genre’s sing a tribute song together followed by popular artist performing their own song then a commercial break, this then repeats about 5 times then finally an award is given out in between two acts then a commercial break then the whole cycle repeats again. And the people I really feel sorry for are the people nominated they have to get up early in the morning to start getting ready then they have to arrive 3 or more hours in advance so they can make their way down the red carpet do all the photo ops and interviews before getting to the show. Then they have to sit through all this tired uncomfortable and hungry as hell.
And as far as the endless stream of entertainment goes the acts were not bad the and way the stage was designed was amazing and added to each of the performers unique styles. Of course everyone that knows me has to ask what I thought of the Fabulous Lady Gaga but I am sad to say I was not impressed. Her arrival in the egg was an interesting idea but the two members of her entourage that spoke for her did a poor job and gave it an over all feel of a high school performance art piece. Her actual stage performance started of kinda nice but did not really impress me. I do not have a problem with minimalistic aesthetics and I think they can actually be very impactful and memorable if done right and I am sad to say that the surgical rubber costumes did not cut it for me. I had heard the “super secret to be heard for the first time at the grammys song” about two weeks before the grammys and I was praying that it was not the final mix but it was, in fact I am 99% sure the performance that night was a lip-sync to the track I and heard weeks earlier. The song is not bad but I feel like everything an artist of any type produces should be better than anything they have ever done before and I do not think that this new song “Born this way” is any better, or worse, than some of the unreleased stuff she did before the release of her first album. Maybe I am just becoming a jaded bitch, or maybe i set unrealistic expectations for others but I feel let down that I waited for this song to come out and heard this hype that it is going to be awesome and it was just alright. I am positive that “Born this way” will be a permanent staple at gay clubs for decades to come and it has a great dance beat, but so do all her other songs.
As one last little side note I would also like to say that while I still do not like Justin Biebers singing he is a good performer; actually singing and not lip-syncing while dancing around on stage. And doing a far better job dancing than I will ever be able to do on top of that, not that I am good at dancing or anything. (not being sarcastic while I do enjoy dancing I suck at it)
Why the hell does internet explorer still exist anyway?
I was trying to get some programs to run on my desktop the other day and I discovered that I had to get the latest version of flash to make it work. I didn’t understand this at first because I always keep flash updated, but after a few minutes I figured out that my web browser google chrome had the latest version but it was not actually on my computer just the browser. Now I’m not a techy person so I don’t fully understand why my browser uses it but the rest of my programs can’t but they don’t so I had to get the latest version on my hard drive. The program I was attempting to use from my desktop, in this case the pandora.com desktop app, told me I had to use internet explorer to download the update and other browsers will not do it. Apparently using any other browser will get it on your browser for viewing things online but will not get it on your computer for off line viewing. So I went into my start menu and found the explorer icon and hopped on the interwebs to get the update. I put in the exact address to the adobe page where the update can be downloaded and 7 minutes later it finally loads. I click the download button and of course it does nothing, I wait a few minutes and then click it again. Explorer then blocked the download and I had to go through this whole song and dance to get it to get it to not block it, go back to the page and try again. This of course took another 7 minutes or so to load again and then finally clicked download and the download started. Now I can download a full length feature film through chrome in about 10 minutes but a simple update on explorer 44 freaking minutes. Then about 10 seconds to install and pandora starts working right on my desktop.
Now I have to wonder first off why do I have to use explorer to download this update and get it to work from the desktop, why can I not do this with what ever browser I feel like using? But more importantly why does explorer exist and why the hell is it so freaking slow. Why do they continue to push an obsolete program and why am I forced to endure the agonizingly slow speed of this steaming pile of crap. And for that matter why am I forced to chose between PC and Mac. I know a lot of people are crazy about one and hate the other but I don’t particularly care for either one of them they both seem like they do 50% of stuff really well and the other 50% they suck ass at. of course all the techy geeks want so say linux is the shit but honestly it sucks worse than anything else. I mean come on it’s 2011 where are the voice controlled computers with displays that are projected into thin air. I have been seeing these future tech shows that have been promising just such computers in the very near future for the past 15 years so where are they?
Been a while since my last post things have been a little hectic around here lately so until I get a real post up here is another random adorable asian boy. I’m normally a stickler for citing any images I put up but I found this randomly on google images and it had no source information.
Morgan Aero SuperSport Possibly the Sexiest Car Ever.
So anyone that knows me can tell you I’m not really in to cars at all. But I was flipping through the channels today and saw this beauty on TopGear. This is everything I love in…well everything. It has a classic turn of the century style with a little modern twist. For those car lovers out there I assure you this little baby has more power than you know what to do with and is the only car made by Morgan Motor Co. that is street legal in the U.S. But with all things that I love it is a little beyond my price range. To start with the Aero like all cars from Morgan is hand built in England and they only make 100-150 a year and build them to order. So if you want one you have to get on the wait list and you have to pay a non-refundable deposit of roughly (all prices are in United Kingdom Pounds) $40,000 U.S. and by time they get to you they may no longer make this particular model. Once your car is built your going to have to fork out another $200,000 U.S. plus shipping from the UK. But I guess if you are the kind of person that can seriously be in the market for a car like this then the price is trivial.
On the other hand I could care less about all the performance specs and the luxury I just like the look. Why can’t other companies make classically styled cars like this in the price range of a standard two door coup. You know between $20,000 and $40,000. I don’t need ultra think plush leather seats and hand built details, I just want a modern car that looks like it was built in the 1920’s.
