This is how we roll...

Trashypantz has a new ride in the family... A 2007 Honda Accord. No fancy schmancy navigation system, but somehow we will manage.


The three extra accessories below approved the purchase saying it was "Cool! Vroooom, Vroooom!" The accessory in the backseat was just happy to have her own space and be away from the reckless pretend driving of the other two.

Your Super Bowl Predictions

Last weeks poll asked: Who will be playing each other in the Super Bowl?

It seems that only one person picked out which teams would make an appearance on February 4th in Miami... Granted, the one person who picked the Bears vs. Colts was not looking good against the 3 votes that predicted it would be Patriots vs. Bears until the last minute of the game.

Below is a breakdown of all the voting...
Patriots vs. Saints 13%
Bears vs. Colts 13%
Saints vs. Colts 38%
Patriots vs. Bears 38%

Tony Soprano is back, and he’s had his dirty mouth cleaned out.

Even the strippers get cleaned up!

Tonight A&E begins airing reruns of the acclaimed crime drama, scrubbed up for basic cable with less cursing, less violence and less sex but the same compelling plotlines and whip-smart dialogue.
The show’s first appearance outside HBO comes four months before the mob drama returns for its final eight original episodes in April and could lead to an uptick in viewership if people who had never watched the show before become fans.
A&E paid a bundle, a record $2.5 million per episode, to acquire rights to the show’s 86 episodes. It took a year for the editing team from HBO and A&E to clean up the episodes, including popping bathing suits on the Bada Bing strip club dancers, and A&E has rolled out a very aggressive ad campaign to promote “Sopranos,” which will air back-to-back episodes Wednesdays at 9 p.m.
A&E is also hyping the show with an online “Sopranos Connection” game that promises $100,000 to the winner. Players must collect game pieces from “Sopranos” ads that run online, in magazines and elsewhere, which help them predict the plot of the episode.

NEW YORK (AP) -- It may feel like looking into the mirror for Bill O'Reilly and Stephen Colbert next week. The Fox News Channel host and Colbert, who has essentially based his comic character every evening on Comedy Central on him, will trade appearances on each other's programs Jan. 18.

"I'm really looking forward to speaking to a man who owes his entire career to me," O'Reilly said.

On "The Colbert Report," Colbert portrays a self-involved talk-show host who has tried to bring "truthiness" to the world. His character owes an obvious debt to O'Reilly, who holds court in the "no-spin zone" each evening.

On "The O'Reilly Factor," O'Reilly portrays a ... um, he hosts the top-rated program in cable news.

"I look forward to the evening," Colbert said. "It is an honor to speak face-to-face with a broadcasting legend, and I feel the same way about Mr. O'Reilly."

Happy Birthday HBK!

It was no Melrose Place...

Fox's once-hot `The O.C.' is canceled

The O.C. burst onto TV with so many fights that ended up crashing a catering table at a fancy party, you lost count! Mothers were sleeping with daughters boyfriends, pool houses were made into luxury accommodations for a kid from the streets of , family sailboats were taken to escape all the pressure of high society life and relationships, girls dressed as as Superwoman, tragic deaths of a surfer and a socialite...

Ahhh, it was all so dramatic and exciting... until this season. The show has been losing it's audience season after seasons. Season 1 maintained 10 million viewers and this now final season has only managed to grab 4 million viewers.

The final episode of the drama will air 9 p.m. EST Thursday, Feb. 22 on FOX.

RIP James Brown

James Brown, the singer, songwriter, bandleader and dancer who indelibly transformed 20th-century music, died early Christmas morning in Atlanta. He was 73. Only Elvis Presley had more records make the music charts than Mr. Brown . Ninety-four of Mr. Brown's recordings reached the Top 100, and he had more Top 20 singles than any other recording artist.

Grammy Nominations

This years Grammy nominations are for less crappy then they have been in the past few years. Although, one nomination for Justin Timberlake is one too many, he did somehow manage to get 4 nominations.

The most nominations went to Mary J Blidge, with eight nominations in total. Second highest number of nominations (six) went to... The Red Hot Chili Peppers, TrahyPantz's favorite band (would I ever steer you wrong?) for their double disc album Stadium Arcadium. John Mayer received 5 nominations for his newset and most blues influenced album, Continuum. James Blunt got 5 nominations for his way overplayed song You're Beautiful and the album it came off of. How many people did his girlfriend, Petra Nemcova, have to sleep with to get him these undeserving nominations??

Unfortunately, the Black Eyed Peas got one nomination because someone thought My Humps wasn't the worst song in the world. This person should be hung by thier toes and made to listen to Fergalicious over and over and over again.

On the flipside of that, much more deserving artists, with real talent, received nods, like... Tom Petty, The Arctic Monkeys, Death Cab For Cutie, John Legend, Keane, Coldplay, David Gilmour, Gnarls Barkley and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, just to name a few. (By the way, these artists have all been featured on the sidebar at one time or another over the past year!)

The 49th Grammy Awards will air live on CBS from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 11.

Cowboys-Giants game is highest rated since 1997

Last Sunday's highly anticipated battle for first place in the NFC East between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys delivered first-place ratings for Fox. The game was the highest-rated regular-season NFL game in nearly a decade. The game, which aired just after 4 p.m., scored 27.6 million total viewers and a 17.8 household rating and 32 share, according to numbers from Nielsen Media Research. It was the highest-rated game since 1997's Dec. 15 Monday night battle between the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos, which aired on ABC. The game was likely given a shot in the arm from the "Bowl Championship Series Selection Show," which followed immediately after and which announced which schools would be participating in the controversial collegiate championship. That show averaged an 8.4/13 and 13.3 million viewers. Season to date, Fox’s national game average has now jumped ahead of "Grey's Anatomy" as the top-rated show on TV. It’s averaging a 14.3/27, up from last year’s 13.1/24.

So, more people than ever saw the Giants get beat down for the 5th time in a row. Awesome. Can Neilsen create a formula to see how many pissed of Giants fans there are after each Sunday??

No Bar B-Que For You!

"Kramer's" Racist Tirade -- Caught on Tape

Michael Richards exploded in anger as he performed at a famous L.A. comedy club last Friday, hurling racial epithets that left the crowd gasping, and TMZ has obtained exclusive video of the ugly incident.

Richards, who played the wacky Cosmo Kramer on the hit TV show "Seinfeld," appeared onstage at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood. Kyle Doss, an African-American, told TMZ he and some friends were in the cheap seats and he was playfully heckling Richards when suddenly, the comedian lost it.

Poll Results

Poor Bob Barker has had enough of Plinko and has decided to call it quits.
Last weeks poll asked Who should replace Bob Barker on The Price is Right?

Many voted, and we even had a write in vote! Suprisingly, the guy who has the most game show experience, Wink Martindale, got no votes. Neither did the most popular game show host right now, Howie Mandel. The write in vote was a good choice, Donald Trump. I would love seeing the Don give away crappy living room sets. Good times!
Pee Wee Herman came in second place.
The winner of last weeks poll is....

The Seven Phases of Owning an iPod - An Illustrated Journey

All iPod owners can relate to this illustrated journey of iPod ownership.
I would add a few things to this story, like...

You quickly learn about the "this battery sucks" phase after only using your new iPod for an hour and half and it dies.

You experience the "automatic update screen phase" where are prompted to download a new version of iTunes every month and notice no differences from the old version.

And of course, the phase of "You can be my wedding DJ" which happens when an iPod-less friend sees your awesome playlist and wants to save a few bucks on his wedding by borrowing your iPod. The upside to this that youdon't have to give them a wedding gift and you still get to drink for free.

Feel free to add your own comments based on your own experiences!
