How do you get 3 DUI's in one night???


I don't want to celebrate this guy . . . drunk driving is NEVER an acceptable thing to do . . . but still:  It's a pretty rare feat to get charged with THREE DUIs for driving THREE separate vehicles in one drunk night.
--On Monday night, 54-year-old Tommy Ryser of Blaine, Washington, was drunk . . .  and crashed his pickup truck into a utility pole.
--So he walked home and got his wife's Volkswagen Golf, to go back to his truck.  But on the way, he crashed again . . . this time into a guardrail.
--It didn't stop there.  Because then he went BACK home to get his tow truck . . . yeah, he owned a tow truck too . . . so he could clear the scenes of his accidents and get both vehicles back home.
--But the police were already by the pickup when Tommy pulled up.  They walked over to his tow truck, saw him bleeding from the forehead . . . and pieced together his night.
--He was arrested and charged with THREE DUIs.

Gaga's New Tattoo.




LADY GAGA has already made good on her promise to get her next album title tattooed on her body.  She was seen with the new ink on her left thigh on Monday.


--The tattoo features a unicorn's head . . . with the album title, "Born This Way", written on a banner that's wrapped around the unicorn's horn.


--It's unclear when she got the tattoo, but since she just announced the title at the "MTV Video Music Awards" on Sunday night . . . there's a good chance that she had the ink before making the big announcement.

Happy Thursday!

Does anyone know the name Stefani Germanotta? Well she is actually Lady Gaga and according to old friends, has long forgotten who she used to be. Lady Gaga has become an icon, yet those who used to know her claim this image is all a hoax! In Maureen Callahan’s much-anticipated tell-all book, Poker Face: The Rise and Rise of Lady Gaga, former classmates knock Gaga, saying she was not the “freak” she says she was but that she was just “normal.” A friend from NYU says that Gaga never lived and breathed fashion and she was in fact just a normal girl who wore tshirts and sweatpants. He claims that she wasn't even outspoken. This artsy fashion obsessed superstar is all a facade according to many high school and college classmates that were interviewed. Supposedly she even still has a private facebook page with only 400 friends. The pictures went from her and her girlfriend smiling and hanging out in their sweatpants with no makeup to all new Lady Gaga pictures. So who is Gaga really? According to those who knew her, a friendly, social, party girl!

A former bodyguard for Britney Spears is suing her for assault, charging that she hit her children, had sex in front of them and made them eat until they vomited. This shocking lawsuit is being filed by Fernando Flores, who was a bodyguard. Flores also claims that Britney harassed him by walking around naked and saying provocative things. The worst of the claims is that Flores says he overheard Britney having loud "relations" while her kids were in the same room. He goes on to say that Britney once asked for his belt and then started screaming for her son, yelling "Preston", and ran towards the house where she hit him twice with the belt. Supposedly Brit also made the boys eat seafood despite their allergies to it.

Oprah Winfrey wants a piece of Lindsay Lohan. She is in talks with the star to have her appear during the final season of her show. Sources claim that a deal has actually been finalized. Lindsay has been offered just about every interview possible but has been holding out for the biggest. Not much, if anything can top being interviewed by Oprah Winfrey! No word yet on when the episode will take place!

Tips on having a baby girl!!

We're always a little skeptical about different tricks you can use to pick your baby's gender . . . if there was really a technique that worked, I feel like we'd all know it by now. But this one has a little science behind it, so we're gonna pass it along.

--A team of scientists at Maastricht University in the Netherlands say they've figured out a two-step process to help you influence your future baby's gender. Those steps are:

#1.) If you want a girl, try to conceive anytime except on the days right before or after the woman's ovulation. If you want a boy, try to conceive during those pre- and post-ovulation days.

2.) If you want a girl, eat foods that are high in calcium and magnesium, like yogurt, cheese, spinach, tofu, almonds, oatmeal, broccoli, oranges, cashews and whole wheat cereals. And cut out foods that are high in sodium or potassium.

--If you want a boy, eat foods that are high in sodium and potassium like olives, bacon, salami, smoked salmon, potatoes and meat. And cut out foods that are high in calcium and magnesium.


--In the study, 172 women stuck as closely as possible to the steps for conceiving a girl. And 80% of them, or four out of five, actually did conceive a girl.

HOW TO GET SOME ROMANCE IN YOUR PANTS THIS WEEKEND.

10 FOODS TO AVOID ON A FIRST DATE:


First dates can be a nightmare: You want to make a good impression, so you stress about what to wear and what to say. And even if you get those things right, you can still blow it by ordering food that's going to embarrass you.
--So to help you out, we've got a list from "City Pages" of 10 foods you should supposedly avoid on a first date.

#1.) SPAGHETTI
. It may be delicious, but it can be messy and un-flattering. Bascially, "Lady and the Tramp" is the only time spaghetti ever worked on a first date.
#2.) SOUP. Just like spaghetti, it's nearly impossible to eat soup without looking like a jackass.
#3.) VEAL. Depending on where your date stands on this one, ordering veal can be like saying, "I'm cool with torturing baby farm animals." You're better off just avoiding it.
#4.) BURGERS. On the one hand, hamburgers are messy: Between the grease, the sauce, and the toppings, something is bound to drip. And unless you're at an upscale place, burgers don't really belong on a first date anyway.
--On the other hand . . . forget all that: Hit up a great burger joint, have fun being messy together, and maybe it could be a great first date. It just depends.
#5.) RIBS, WINGS, OR FRIED CHICKEN. Here's a general rule: If you don't eat it with a knife and fork, you're better off avoiding it.
#6.) WATERMELON OR CORN ON THE COB. Alright, so ribs and burgers are already off-limits, and now you're supposed to cross off watermelon and corn on the cob. Basically what they're saying is, just avoid any type of barbeque altogether.
#7.) ICE CREAM CONES. An ice cream cone on a hot summer day is usually thought of as refreshing and romantic. But it can also be a mess. Your call.
#8.) MEXICAN, INDIAN, CHINESE, OR THAI FOOD. The spices in international foods make the mucus membranes in your nose work overtime. You can be adventurous on the first date, so don't rule this stuff out completely.
--But you also don't want to get a runny nose, or have your eyes watering over dinner.
9.) GARLIC. This one shouldn't even need an explanation, but just in case: Garlic is delicious, and you can try and mask it with gum . . . but you're still rolling the dice.
#10.) SPINACH DIP, PARSLEY OR PESTO SAUCE. There's NOTHING you can do to kill a date faster than getting a little green leaf stuck between your teeth.

Happy Tuesday Peeps!

Celebrities can do anything! Nicolas Cage was supposed to start filming a new
movie called “Trespass.” He quit two weeks before they were supposed to start
filming! Instead he went away to the Bahamas on vacation! He was supposed to
make $7 million for doing the movie! If the movie doesn’t get made, he could get
sued!

Over the last few days we have been hearing some new “American Idol” rumors. We
know that Ellen DeGeneres is no longer with the show that is official! FOX did
try and talk her out of it! We’ve heard that Kara DioGuardi was fired.  Fox will
not confirm or deny whether she is coming back or not.  Are Jennifer Lopez and
Steven Tyler joining the Idol family??? Fox will only say that some of the
information we hear is accurate and that some is inaccurate!!! Apparently there
are no signed deals with anybody yet!

According to TMZ, while Lindsay Lohan was in prison she did a lot of writing.
They say she filled up a few notebooks about her experience behind bars. TMZ
claims that eventually Lindsay hopes to turn her journals into a book.

Charlie Sheen will not be going to jail for threatening his wife Brooke Mueller
with a knife at Christmas time. Charlie pleaded guilty to third-degree domestic
violence. He will be getting no jail time!!! Instead he gets 30 days at the
Promises clinic in Malibu. There he will work on “behavioral modification!”
WHAT???  Celebs live in such a different world!

PERFECTIONISTS ARE 51% MORE LIKELY THAN SLACKERS TO DIE AN EARLY DEATH:


If you're the kind of person who religiously pays every bill on time, alphabetizes your CDs and DVDs, and makes sure every single detail in every e-mail you send is absolutely perfect . . . here's some bad news.


--The guy with the 543 credit score who's smoking reefer on the stained, used couch he bought from Goodwill is probably going to outlive you.


--According to a study by Trinity Western University, perfectionists are 51% more likely than laid-back people to DIE AN EARLY DEATH.


--The stress and anxiety that come with perfectionism take enough of a toll on the body that they can cause health problems that shrink your life expectancy. Stuff like heart disease and hypertension.


--The study did find one big health benefit to perfectionism though. If you've got type two diabetes, your perfectionism helps you keep your blood sugar levels where they need to be.


--Perfectionists were 26% less likely than slackers to die from diabetes or its complications.
(NEW YORK DAILY NEWS)

AND GUACAMOLE HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED:


I'm not usually one to be suspicious of the Mexicans . . . but I have it on good authority that they got us addicted to their delicious food, and now they're using it to POISON US.


--According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of people who got food poisoning from salsa and guacamole has more than DOUBLED in the last decade.


--Between 1984 and 1997, about 1.5% of food poisoning cases at restaurants were connected to salsa and guacamole. Between 1998 and 2008, that exploded to 3.9% of cases, or one out of every 25 cases.


--The main reason is that Mexican food has gotten more popular, so more people than ever are eating salsa and guacamole.


--And since those two foods don't require any cooking . . . where the heat could kill the bad bacteria . . . it's easier for them to cause an outbreak.


--Bad storage times and temperatures were responsible in 30% of the Mexican food poisoning cases. A food worker passing his own germs into your salsa and guacamole was responsible 20% of the time.


(--The CDC didn't say what the cause was the other 50% of the time.)
(WALL STREET JOURNAL)

MEN ARE AFRAID TO ORDER VEGETABLES OR YOGURT BECAUSE IT MAKES THEM LOOK "GAY":


Apparently, there's a reason men go to restaurants and order things like steak and gravy. And it's not just because they're delicious. No . . . men order those things so they look HETEROSEXUAL.


--A new study found that men at restaurants gravitate to stereotypically manly things, like the words "heavy" and "hearty," and foods like gravy and meat. And they stay away from stereotypically female things, like vegetables, white wine, and yogurt.


--Even if a man really wants a delicious pasta with a white wine sauce, he might order meat sauce instead, because, quote, "men forgo their preferences to conform to a masculine gender identity."


--Or, as "Toronto Life" magazine puts it in their write-up of the study, quote, "guys are socially conditioned to think [ordering things like] yogurt makes them gay."


--The study did find that men WILL sometimes order feminine-sounding foods when they have less time to order.


--In other words, if they have less time to think about how they'll be judged for their order, the more likely they are to order what they really want . . . no matter how feminine it is.

HELP SET THE RECORD FOR THE BIGGEST SKINNY DIP EVER THIS WEEKEND:



This weekend, you can participate in setting a world record . . . AND get to stare at some low-hangin' breasts in the process. The American Association For Nude Recreation wants YOUR help in breaking the record for the biggest skinny dip ever.


--Last year, they had 13,648 people all across North America skinny dip at the same time. This year, they think they can beat that. On Saturday at 3:00 P.M. Eastern, they want people to skinny dip simultaneously at sanctioned locations around the continent.


--If you're intrigued, check out the full list of locations at http://www.aanr.com/skinny-dip.html. It looks like no one should be more than a few hours of driving away from one of them

Lindsay gets "b-slapped"!

Lindsay isn't having very good luck lately.  For her birthday, her first present was a punch in the face from a waitress who was jealous she showed up with Doug Reinhardt.  Lindsay left crying but the waitress denies hitting her.  She says she didn't touch the 'little train wreck' but she'd 'like to.'  Lindsay is set to appear before the judge she blew off for Cannes today.  It's possible she could end up in jail.

WHAT DOES YOUR CHOICE OF SWIMSUTI SAY ABOUT YOU?

You may not realize it, but your choice of swimsuit says a lot about you. At least that's according to AOL. Here are their picks for EIGHT swimsuits, and what they reveal . . . or not . . . about your personality.

#1.) BOARD SHORTS: Guys in board shorts . . . meaning, most guys . . . are generally considered COOL, or at least they think of themselves that way. And they would never be caught dead in a speedo. Which brings us to . . .

#2.) THE SPEEDO! According to AOL, the speedo is making a comeback this summer. And while it's a punchline, if you're daring enough to wear one, at least it means you're confident . . . either in bed, or because you like to clown around.

#3.) SKIRTED BOTTOM: On to the ladies. This thing looks like a sun-dress, and it means you're a, quote, "girly-girl" . . . and that you're hiding your thighs.

#4.) SHAPEWEAR SWIMSUIT: This is your basic one-piece swimsuit. It's for ladies with a little bit more to love, or it just means that they're strong and in control.

#5.) ONE-PIECE WITH CUTOUTS: A one-piece bathing suit with cutouts on the sides is for women who don't actually have that many curves, since it gives the illusion of an hourglass figure. And it's for the types who want to flirt on the beach.

6.) RACERBACK ONE-PIECE: This is for serious, practical, athletic types. It's got that center-piece down the back, like a pro swimmer.



#7.) TANKINI: This is basically a bikini bottom combined with a separate tank top. It's kind of a compromise between the one-piece look and the bikini. So it helps the ladies who are trying deal with the problems created by those OTHER two looks.



#8.) BIKINI: If you're rocking the bikini, you don't have to be young, but according to AOL, it does mean you're "youthful and spry." And there you have it.

THINGS THATMAKE YOU FEEL LIKE AN IDOT!

Holding other people's babies

At some point in your life, you are going to have to hold a baby. When that time comes, you will discover that babies are terrifying and they hate you.

~~ Not having pockets to put your hands in while listening to someone else talk
Once you realize that there are no pockets and there never will be any pockets no matter how much you wish for them, you begin futilely cycling through a series of increasingly awkward hand positions; hands on your hips like a superhero, arms folded lightly over your chest like an insecure preteen, arms folded purposefully over your chest like an angry farmer, hands dangling limply at your sides - they all make you feel insecure and unnatural.

~~ People of indeterminate gender


You try not to notice. You try not to let it bother you because you are a good person and your identity is heavily dependent on perceiving yourself as nonjudgmental and understanding of others. But somewhere in the back of your mind, you begin to feel panic.
~~ Having your space invaded by your friend's cat

You don't like cats, but you pretend to like your friend's cat because that's what friends do. Then the cat gets all pushy and starts kneading your chest with its paws and backing its ass up in your face. But you can't do anything about it.

~~ Talking with the guy who hates everything

The guy who hates everything can turn any conversation into a one-sided rant. This sends you into a tailspin of anxiety over whether this person can tell that you ate microwave fish sticks for lunch or if you've ever mentioned your weakness for Slim Jims around him.

Talk about a Urnial with a view! From Toyoko.

If you're a procrastinator, this week is for you... next week, start using some of these methods to overcome your need to put off important tasks.


10. Make a lunch or dinner date (to create a deadline).

A deadline will light a fire under your butt and keep your eye on the clock. Make a date with your co-worker or friend to have lunch at a set time, and use it as a deadline for getting your morning tasks done.

9. Write down the first thing you have to do tomorrow morning and put it on your keyboard before you leave the office.

The best time of the day to get things done is first thing in the morning, so make it easy on yourself. Every evening, before you leave the office, write down the single most important task you've got to get done the next day.

8. Don't check email for the first hour of the day.

Wait for one hour before you open up your email inbox in the morning. Instead of thoughtlessly reading email first thing, work on that task you laid out for yourself in #9. Accomplishing something out of the gate sets the tone for the rest of your day.

6. Edit that email you're writing down to less than five sentences.

No one likes to get long-winded email. The shorter your email is, the more likely you are to get a response. Make sure your emails are no more than five sentences. If your message has to be longer, pick up the phone and call instead.

5. Cut someone off.

When chatty Cathy's yapping your head off, a polite line like: "I hate to cut this short, but I've got an appointment" can save you hours of wasted time at the office.

4. Book a meeting with yourself.

If your head is spinning with all the stuff you've got to get done and the interruptions keep coming, you need some alone time. If the hours of your day keep getting stolen by meeting requests and drive-by interruptions, box out an hour or so every few days specifically to regroup and get organized.

3. Master the art of the qualified yes.

Don't be a yes-man or woman by default. When you have a choice (and most times you do), instead of automatically saying yes unconditionally to incoming requests, qualify it. See if it's something that can be put off till a later date or done by someone more available or better-suited.

2. Block out distractions and set a timer.

When your brain is frozen in a solid block of paralyzed procrastination around a task and you're letting yourself get carried away by distractions like email and instant messenger, it's time to take out the big guns. Turn off your email and IM client, grab a kitchen timer, set it for 10 minutes, and work until the beep. Then, take a break. Wash, rinse, and repeat.

1. Do a free jot brain dump.

When you're so stuck in a rut, take a piece of paper and a pen, go to a quiet place, and free jot for 10 minutes. Make lists. Mind map. Free associate ideas. Rant. Write down whatever comes to mind to get your juices flowing.

Justin Bieber will appear live on QVC March 9th and 12th to sell his new album "My World 2.0."
Justin will perform some songs and give fans the chance to buy the album. The set was specially-packaged for QVC with an exclusive bonus DVD. It'll be on sale on the network two weeks before it drops in stores.
Kelly Clarkson was added to the lineup for this year's Lilith Fair. ..she joins Sarah McLachlan, Ke$ha, Colbie Caillat, among others. NO DATES YET , BUT THE TOUR WILL MAKE A STOP IN RALEIGH.

No snow in my "hood" this morning. :) I'm ready for summer!

There's a new iPhone app called TigerText-- it lets people (cheaters) set a time limit for a sent text to hang around after it has been read. When that time is up, the message will disappear from the phone, the sender's phone and any servers. The message also can't be forwarded anywhere or stored anywhere.


Did Naomi Campbell lose it again? A limo driver is accusing her of assault yesterday in NYC. The chauffeur called 9-1-1 and then showed off his bruises to police. Naomi fled the scene, but her reps say she'll tell her side of the story and then everyone will understand.


Did I just see a picture of Jon Gosselin’s private parts on Twitter? His ex Hailey Glassman was always talking about how small it was. Yesterday she posted a picture on Twitter and said it was Jon’s. If it is, she wasn’t lying!

Justin Timberlake is doing a movie with his ex-girlfriend, Cameron Diaz. The movie is called “Bad Teacher.” Does Justin’s girlfriend Jessica Biel worry about them working together? Would you want your boyfriend working with his ex?

“The Bachelor” season finale was watched by about 15 million people! That is great ratings for the show. Howver, lots of peeps still not excited about Jake choosing Vienna. I don’t get why everyone’s being so hard on her. She’s sweet..his choice. Nuff said.

Jay Leno beat David Letterman in the ratings on his first day back! About 6.6 million watched Leno and about 3.8 million watched Letterman.

What's the most annoying thing about surfing the web?

Pop up ads, sites that force you to register for everything -- there are a lot of annoying things that get in the way while surfing the web... what do you hate most?

Here's an interesting article from PCWorld about how to fix those Internet annoyances.

-SOCIAL NETWORKING OVERLOAD

You've got MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare and now Google Buzz.. too many to keep up with!
What do you do? Use a program like Digsby, TweetDeck or Meebo that brings all the networks together in one space.
-THIS AD IS A VIDEO
You land on a page, and all of a sudden a video automatically starts, and it's always really loud!
What do you do? Get FlashMute. Shuts those ads down before they start.

-YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT FARMVILLE
You like Facebook, but you hate all those annoying notices about quiz results and Farmville ribbons.
What do you do? If you're a Firefox user, check out Facebook Purity which strips all that junk out. Or just start using Facebook Lite, which strips your feed down to its bare essentials.

TODAY IS...SATISFIED BEING SINGLE DAY.

Last weekend, a group of inventors unveiled the "Heineken Bot" at the Kinetica Art Fair in London. Basically, it's a Heineken mini-keg-on-wheels that's been programmed to zoom around a party pouring drinks for people. And yes, it's as cool as it sounds.






YOUR SEARCH ENGINE OF CHOICE REVEALS A LOT ABOUT YOU..

YAHOO users tend to be older and unimaginative, and they feel like they can't control their future. They also "strongly prefer" AT&T and Sprint to Verizon and T-Mobile.

BING users tend to be early adopters who prefer shopping at Wal-Mart.

And AOL users are less intellectual than all other search engine users. They're also conformists who have low expectations and, quote, "feel like they've gotten a raw deal out of life."


“Twilight” fans listen up! “Eclipse” the 3rd movie in the saga comes out in June. I am hearing rumors that the first trailer for the movie will be out this weekend! It may happen during the coming attractions for “Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightening Thief.” If you go see the movie, let me know if the trailer is shown.
By the way, Wal-Mart has the rights to a special 2-disc fan edition of “New Moon.” It comes out on March 20th and is called “The Twilight saga: New moon Ultimate Fan Edition.” The DVD will have a special 7-minute feature about the next movie ‘Eclipse.”

This is pretty cool! When the next “Spider-Man” movie comes out, it will be in 3D. It comes out in 2012.

Warner Bros. just renewed “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” for three more seasons. It has been picked up from the 2013-2014 season. That will be Ellen will be on the air for 11 seasons!

If you're actively following the guys in ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS on Twitter . . . and several thousand of you actually ARE . . . you may have heard that the band came close to splitting up over the holidays.

--Ritter said, quote, "Just walked out on dinner with Wheels, I'm over this (crap)." And later, Wheeler said, quote, "Fed up with Ty and his BS . . . I'm out! Forever."


--Neither of them said anything else about it until New Year's Eve, when they both announced that they'd patched things up . . . by KISSING.


--Ritter said, quote, "Nick and I made up. I mean made out." And then he posted a picture of the passionate moment. Nick added, "And now, all is well.

Lady Gaga Gets An Offer To Do Her Thing In Las Vegas Deal!

Lady GaGa has been offered a residency at a Las Vegas casino.
George Maloof, who owns the Palms Casino Resort, said he was "blown away" when she performed at the hotel and described GaGa as a "perfect fit" for the casino.
He said he was more than impressed when she refused to join him at one of his nightclubs.
He said: "She was just so professional. She's not a partier. That was really refreshing. She's dedicated to being the top artist in the world. You know you've just seen a superstar."
