“I Met the Walrus” is an amazing video of an interview done by Jerry Levitan, a Beatles’ fan that snuck into John Lennon’s hotel room and persuaded him to do an interview about peace.
The video is animated and brings Lennon’s words to life with clever imagery enhancing his word play.
John Lennon’s message was simple and still relevant today; Don’t be square and do your part-work for peace.

Lead singer, Hayley Williams, of Paramore is not happy with her pathetic ex-stepfather’s actions. The low life is selling Williams’ items on Ebay, and she’s blogging about it.
Here’s the following blog:
ebay revenge.
so… i’ve decided to do this. it was only half thought out but i’m doin it anyways.
i saw that post someone made about the “handwritten book” on ebay. yes, it’s mine. hahah. i don’t remember being a sad child but i definitely loved horror films at a really young age. i guess that was reflected in this particular assignment. anyway, that’s not exactly what i’m posting about. i’m actually posting about the seller of this item. it happens to be my ex-stepfather. who is… well… insane, hence the reason he is my EX-stepfather. so, while i can laugh at the fact that a bit of my past has surfaced, i have to admit i felt like throwin shit when i saw the username. to be honest, i’d love to post his full name. where he works. possibly a phone number??? then all of you could show him what it feels like when your personal life is out there for everyone to put their hands on. fortunately for him… living with him for 7 years wasn’t quite enough to make me turn out just like him… or was it?
don’t buy it. i’m gonna buy it. hahaha.
Kanye’s alternate version for “Flashing Lights” features stop motion of a beautiful girl who ends up a wreck at the end of the night. Opposite of the first version, but not better. The first was cinematic and clever, the second one-not so much. It’s very “a picture a day” mixed with “this is you on drugs,” but that’s just me.
It’s less than a week before my summer classes and I’ve been doing the random. I went swimming until the weather in California forgot it was California and a tornado watch happened. This brought about the rain which prompted me to sit on my butt, enjoy the pitter-patter of the rain and bring out a sweater to wear (YES! It’s sweater weather!)
While sitting on my butt I decided to spend hours on doing what I like most- being productive unproductive. What does that mean exactly you ask? Well it means instead of reading ahead for my classes or doing some sit-ups to counteract the munchies I’ve caught from visiting my parents I’ve used my precious time to do other things such as: going on sites like Etsy.com or ebay, read a blog or two or 10 and watch all the seasons so Arrested Development-I forgot Zack Braff was a never-nude.
Everything was copacetic til I was on ebay searching for Flight of the Conchords tickets in Los Angeles. I knew that it was going to be expensive, last time I checked a pair was going for around $300, but nothing prepared me for the prices I saw today. All the “buy now” tickets are going for around $700 and at that price most of the sellers AREN’T offering free shipping! Those shits! Honestly, someone is even brazen enough to have a” buy now” at $1,100. His/her message to the buyer (if there is one foolish enough to buy it) is:
“These are awesome seats that I am sadly selling - I have to go out of town for business now. I had bought them through a service and am just trying to recoup my money - hopefully these go to some worthy individuals that love FOTC.”
LIKE THEY GIVE A TOSS THAT A FOTC FAN BUYS IT!
It’s like…SERIOUSLY…are you sending those tickets in an envelope made of gold, encrusted with diamonds and delivered by a person who going to offer some kind of sexual favor?
Oh, no?
THEN WTF, WHY $1,100?!
FOTC fans are mostly college students that buy cup-o-noodles with the 5 bucks they got from their $150 psych book during their school’s book buy back ripoff session or young people that live in studio apartments and use their beds as couches or at least a barrier to pretend the kitchen is not your bedroom.
With those discouraging ticket prices I’m just going to have to enjoy my FOTC DVD and youtube videos because there is no way I’m shelling out hundreds compared to ticketmaster’s $32+ whatever handling fees.

and I leave you with FOTC “Ladies of the World” music video.
Paying homage to internet viral video insanity, Weezer’s new music video to “Pork and Beans” makes the viewer go, “I remember that!” making them feel that they haven’t wasting their time watching youtube.com at 2 a.m. (or aware of the fact that they’ve been wasting their time watching videos at 2 a.m.).
