Hey, you know what's really not cool? Waking me up at five in the morning to check and see if you turned the iron off, when you actually unplugged the iron before you left. I'm pretty sure it's off, okay? And now my migraine is coming back.

Meanwhile, my parents have now drunk the Firefox Kool-Aid. Actually, they'll pretty much use anything I tell them to if it involves fewer viruses. It also helped that their IE had developed some kind of weird bug where "Select skin change" popped up every time you did anything, so any browser where that wouldn't happen was A-OK by them. So we are now a family of Firefoxers.

Also, we're all listening to the POTC2 soundtrack obsessively. Mom had me burn copies of the soundtrack for her and my stepfather, and I squeezed as much of the first movie's score as I could in at the beginning (which just thrilled my stepfather's soul, as he's had to play the POTC1 score umpteen times as a drummer for Celebration Winds and is thoroughly sick of it). So now they both listen to it in their cars as they drive to and from work. My mother skips straight to "The Kraken." Yes, we are a weird family.

(More browser extensions you might enjoy.)

Lance Bass comes out in People magazine.

Keira Knightley on the set of Atonement.

'Pirates' Takes Aim at Emmys: ABC avenges lack of Lost noms by scheduling blockbuster movie opposite the ceremony. Heh.

Baby Shiloh Re-Created in Wax. SO CREEPY. Like, "waxwork figure of Shiloh Pitt-Jolie" isn't even the creepy part--for my money, it's the "pose for a family photo with Shiloh, Angelina and Brad."

Am I also weird if I admit I'm choreographing a belly dance solo to "Davy Jones"?

Lance Bass: Justin Timberlake Is The Only One Who's Surprised. "N*SYNC members could NEVER be gay," he insists.

Haha, at first I thought you meant "Shiloh" as in the dog, and I was all, WHAT IS THIS.

it's still kind of weird for me to wrap my head around Lance Bass being gay--why, I don't know. There was evidence and plenty of speculation with fans for years (not to mention Perez Hilton), but still, I thought he was at least bi.

And why does part of me want to e-mail my middle school best friend who was deeply in crushing on him? WHY?

I'm not in the boy-band target audience by a long shot, but I appreciated N'Sync for their sense of humor. (I can still quote bits of MTV's Armageddon'Sync: "Leader? There's no 'I' in N'Sync!" and "The fate of the world rests in the hands of the prettiest white boys on the planet...") Good for him.

Oh, man, I've been listening to the POTC2 soundtrack obsessively, too! My favorite is The Wheel of Fortune since it sort of combines all of the other songs into it at once.

More movie-related jewelry: Snake On A Plane necklace (http://www.shopintuition.com/product.asp?pid=13673&a=w)!

Did you hear about Rodrigo Santoro joining the cast of Lost (http://community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=800003996)? Even more reason to look forward to the new season. Sandrigo looks a little like Josh Holloway.

Damn you Networks, are you trying to kill me with the pretty? I don't watch Lost because the camera work gives me motion sickness, but when you add hotKarl into the mix... that's just too much pretty to not watch.

Prediction: the wax baby will disappear and be found in the iron-grip clutches of Katie Holmes, who will continue to whisper and coo to it even as they're separated by the Jaws of Life.

You know, it's sweet that the proceeds from the wax exhibit are going to UNICEF, but wouldn't it be AWESOME if the sculptors included Angelina's OTHER, NON-WHITE, NON-BIOLOGICAL children too? I mean, she hasn't dropped her other kids.

No, you're not. Not when my red-necked, NASCAR-loving father begged me to make him a copy of both soundtracks. I can just picture him... cruising down the road in his pick-up... rocking out to The Kraken.

You know, I wonder if because Darren Hayes came out and wasn't ripped to shreds Lance thought perhaps it was safe to do so too. Huh, I can only hope the poor guy isn't terrorized because of it. Even if I'm not fond of N'Sync.

You might like this. A US Representative admits on The Colbert Report that he likes cocaine and prostitutes, because they're fun to do together.

For some reason, that statement reminds me of the Neil Patrick Harris scenes in Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle.

Still, I can't wait to see where Fox takes this one.

>< Sorry. It's just the way the link was worded made it sound like you thought Wexler was serious, at least in my convoluted mind.

Good Morning America and the Today Show commented on the interview, saying the guy was dumb for going on the show. So Colbert mocked them for their own stupidity and told people to vote Wexler because he had a sense of humour. I love him so much.

First, It was Anthony Rapp now Lance Bass...why is it that all the guys I used to like are gay? *shakes head* Why am I so attracted to gay men? lol.

The Brangelina baby wax sculoture is creepy. I'm a little scared now.

first off...thanks for converting to firefox and linking us all these nifty extentions. I've had FF for about a year now, and never got around to searching out extentions.

secondly, HOLY SHIT THAT ONE LINK HAD A ROACH ON THE BOTTOM AND IT FREAKED ME THE FUCK OUT.

My mum and I are addicted to the POTC score. Absolutely addicted. So, your family is not weird. Or, at the very least, is no weirder than mine. Hee.
