Trader Joe's Discontinues Kosher Chocolate Chip Cookies and I'm pissed.

  Have you ever had something in your life that was so beautiful.. no, brilliant.. no, no! No words can describe this feeling so I shall make one up now scrumtrilescent. So I ask again, have you ever had something in your life that was so scrumtrilescent that when you bit into it the whole world stopped? I did and they were Kosher Chocolate Chip Cookies from Trader Joe's. Ever since I was a little Jew boy I indulged in these scrumtrilescent treats day after day, building my chocolate addiction. Now I assume most of you have something like this in your life or like me, had. Tragic does not even begin to describe what is happening right now. The worst part is, I can't grab the last of them off the shelves like my contemporaries who are fortunate enough to shop regularly at Trader Joe's. I am left to wallow in my own grief and to survive only off the fond memories I have of the most scrumtrilescent cookies God has ever made. In conclusion, it is safe to say that a beaming light of deliciousness has left this world. A beaming light that makes the Pillsbury Dough Boy look like a child pornographer.

Sodomize Intolerance Sequel announced.

  It's been about a month since Make Keene and Brandon Steebs announced a sequel to their buddy-cop film "Sodomize Intolerance". Since then, filming has been delayed several times but that's just the tip of the ice berg. Even though both Gibraltar Studios and Keene and Steebs want a sequel, the two parties cannot agree on a budget. According to inside sources, Keene is demanding a whopping $100 Million budget. A representative from Gibraltar Studios released a statement last week on the situation,

"If Make Keene and Brandon Steebs want $100 million dollars from us they must give us in full detail what they plan on using it for. When Gibraltar gave them a generous $5 they spent it on a bottle of Vaseline. We still don't know what the Vaseline was used for. Therefore, we simply cannot risk it."

   To bring things up to speed, filming for "Fornicate the Authority" will begin this weekend. No word on what the budget will be or what the sequel will even be about. According to IMDb, all of the original cast will be returning along with new additions. On whether or not he will appear 1/4 nude again Keene replied, "Maybe I will, and maybe I will".

Adam Yauch aka MCA 1964-2012

   Adam Yauch, Co-Founder of the influential Hip Hop group the Beastie Boys and Oscilloscope Pictures passed away on last Friday. To most people, fans especially, he was known as MCA. A witty and in your face rapper who's later life passions were Buddhism and Tibetan Independence. Yauch, along with AD-Rock and Mike D, started out briefly as a punk band but swiftly converted to Hip-Hop, a new genre at the time. It probably would have been safer for three Jewish boys from New York to take the punk route, but instead they decided to break new ground. We should be thankful that they did. Their debut album "License to Ill" is one the of the most successful Rap debut albums of all time and for the next several years Adam made more albums with the Beastie Boys along with directing most of their music videos under the pseudonym Nathaniel Hornblower. By 1992, MCA was growing tired of the Party Animal persona that was created with License to Ill (and partially Paul's Boutique). In search for something fresh for himself and his music, he traveled to Nepal on a snowboarding trip and discovered the struggles of the Tibetan people as well as the teachings of the Dali Lama. When he came back, MCA was on his way to becoming a world leading activist for Tibetan Liberation. As Adam pursued interest in Buddhism, he was able to put it to words and music... and not come off as some faux enlightened celebrity taking a ride on his own ego.In 2009 Yauch was diagnosed with a cancerous parotid gland and was treated immediately with positive results. MCA was able to appear on the Beastie Boys last album "Hot Sauce Committee Part. 2" which scored rave reviews, but did not tour or appear in videos. Needless to say, the Egg Man went out with a bang and is missed dearly by family, friends, bandmates, fans, and fellow musicians... who are all kinda the same thing.. Adam Yauch is survived by his wife, Dechen; his daughter, Tenzin Losel; and his parents, Frances and Noel Yauch.

Ford Mustang goes Euro?

    The Ford name and the Ford Mustang are icons of American folklore but for the past couple of years the Ford Mustang has been in trouble. The Baby Boomers, the Mustang's largest demographic, are about to run their course as consumers which means Ford needs to start tapping in to the Generation Y demographic soon (other automobile companies already have). Ford Mustangs as a model are becoming outcasts with their retro look and low gas mileage... which is why Ford has decided to redesign it. Ford has redesigned the Mustang a few times in its 40+ history and most of the time the reboots have been unsuccessful. The new concept will hopefully appeal to the younger car consumers with its European design. No images have been released but fans of the famous muscle car and young car buyers can expect to see images in the near future.
