Wacky Wednesday ... It is Wednesday, right?

Ctrl-Alt-Chicken - They make Manicotti and it actually comes out pretty good.  They probably could have cooked it a bit longer and maybe even done a few other things a little different, but overall it's a pretty good try.  And Vijay makes an appearance (the camera guy.)

The Daily Show - 7/24 - The show starts off with some Israel and Lebanon talk, shocker it's still bad.  John McCain is the guest, and I'm always a fan of a guy like him on the show.  Stewart doesn't pull any punches and goes right after him asking him flat out if the President is an idiot.  McCain doesn't really say a whole lot, unfortunately, but I don't think he really can.  I'd like to see him run for President because I'd like to see if he'd pander to the fundamental right or actually go after the middle of the road people who made him popular.

The Colbert Report - 7/24 - Stephen celebrates American's win at Miss Universe since, you know, Puerto Rico won.  The Word is Moral Minority.  A Thread-Down, always fun.  Kix ceral is the number one threat because it's Kid-Tested, Mother-Approved.  Doesn't say anything about the Father, needed in the monogamous, man-woman relationship as defined by God.  Howell Raines is the special guest, he's an old newspaper guy.  I didn't think he said much, one way or the other.

The Daily Show - 7/25 - Starts off witha  bit of Mess-o-Potamia.  Then some Trend Spotting with Demitri Martin, where he investigates the hookah - Man you're so high right now.  Ed Burns is the guest, he's in that movie The Groomsmen with Brittany Murphy.  He's okay.

The Colbert Report - 7/25 - I got busy at work, so this was background noise.  Didn't really watch it and didn't catch the name of the guest, but the guy was an asshole, and it scares me that there are people in this world that think that way.

Diggnation - Episode 55 - You know it's going to be a wierd episode because it's a live one.  And they're always crazy.  Johnny Johnny of Tiki Bar TV shows up and gives Kevin a kiss from Lala.  Yeah, they were pretty drunk and Johnny Johnny kept buying them shots, which is always a good time. It was a pretty good show, but a bit light on the news this time.

Command-N - The show starts off with talking about the possibility of iTunes allowing movie downloads.  I'm okay with them offering it, but I won't use it.  They review a really small Kodak camera, but I like Kristen's Sony better.  And the review was, IMO, too long for the length of the show.

Blade: The Series - Bloodlines - Blade is captured by a group called the Bad Bloods whom he used to run with when he was younger.  It was kinda confusing at first.  Krista also is going swimming in some blood pool to increase her spiritual connection with Boone.  The show didn't really wrap anything up and left a lot of things unanswered.

*** Music Reviews ****

Various Artists - Punk Rock is your Friend - Kung Fu Sampler - I love samplers, you get to hear a bunch ( or at least a few) different bands and get a sample of what a record label has.  This time, it's wierd, because I already knew all of these bands from other samplers, but it's all good because it's a good CD.  Ozma has two songs on this CD.  They're Weezer.  Seriously the dude even sounds like Cumo, but I really like them.  Only slightly bad thing about this CD is that it's pretty old by now, a couple of years, and it seems like half of the bands on it have since broken up :)

Dirty on Purpose - Hallelujah Sirens - Dirty, fuzzy guitars with lots of repeating riffs.  A couple of the songs remind me of the Pixies a little, I don't know why because they aren't the same, it just reminds me of them for some reason.  Maybe the Pixies crossed with like a emo band.  The vocals are almost dreamy, and like the review of eMusic said, filled with melancholy.  It's pretty good though, but, for sure, not everyones cup of tea.
