Be Cool

Well today I was going to talk about "Be Cool" But I came on here and saw that Soyeon is leaving. I think that it is to bad I liked her journals and the pictures she would up load. I wish she wouldn't have deleted her journals. But it is her choice and if she feals more comfortable without any journals and leaving then that is her decision but I wish Soyeon would stay. However I do have to admit that I have never meet anyone offline that I meet on line first, so if I was talking with people who I knew both online and offline I would be in a differantsituation. I think it would be best for Soyeon to stay here. I have learned that getting into fights and having hurt fealings as much as it does hurt can sometimes get people to bond and become closer to each other


BE COOL was a great movie. I saw it today and had a great time. I admit I havn't seen

Get Shorty

, so maybe there are somethings I missed that tied into the first movie. But it was still a great movie. I don't want to get into it to much and give anything away but I enjoyed it. Before the movie I bought a ticket for the Velvet Revovler & Hoobastank tickets. Then on my way home these two Cute sexy young ladies got on the bus. I was near the back so it was hard to see what happened completly. Plus the one girl kinda looked like summer from the OC. She had on a hoodie and she still looked stacked. It looked as if one of them put there Flash a pass in the Dollar taker in stead of slideing it through the reader. If that was me I would have been so imbaressed but they seemed to handle it verry well. But if I was a hot young Buff State student with another hot young buddy I guess I would handle it fine. I'm sure everyone was checking them out anyways. So it was an interesting Day. All in all a saw a funny movie that had a good story and action as well.

Fetishism of Ladies

Most of us guys are Pigs. Those who arn't are dogs. We love women and sexy women at that. I like white girls, Asain Ladies, Black Girls, and Litino women (esapicaly the busty one with big asses). It all depends on the women. I love ladies who look like Anna and that other Russian Tennis Player. But I also love Girls Like Kobi Tai, Asia Cerrea, and Tia (names pronoced same but spelled differantly) I just blanked on her Name she was in Rush Hour 2 and Crouching Tiger hiden dragon. To us guys all girls are sex objects or at least untill we know them. We try not to be pervs but we can't help.

I will admit some guys do Have a thing for Asain girls. But some white guys love black girls only. Some people love ass or legs or breasts. Some guys love Feet or bondage. I think that guys can and do fetishtise everything. If I was having a party I could get stripers, sushi girls, a human sunday or maybe something else. I have also seen white girls serve as a dinner plate. They lay on a table nude except covered in food. Then You take the food of off them. I've only seen pictures not the real thing unfortunatly. Some guys and girls as part of sex do like to eat food of each other, I think that is how they came up with the idea of banquet girls. I would love to go to one of those parties. If I went to one and say a friend of mine as the girl I don't know how I would react, I wouldn't know how to react to seeing a freind in a sexual way. I think my main point is that a lady us guys find hot or sexy or maybe even sluty has to have something that we like about her. For example I don't find all Asain ladies sexy. Yes some of them are but not all of them. There is just something that when you see them it turns you on, and I think that is true of every race.

Korean Suicide reply

[inlink]michmoon,3[/inlink] First of all that is to bad. Thank you for sharing that story. I know that differant countries and differant cultures have differant practices. It is to bad that there is a stigma on shrinks. It is to bad that no one could help her. I admit that in this country it is common place and often very excepted. However there is still somewhat of a stigma attached to it for some people and it some fields. Calling them shrinks is a testament to that. There are still a lot of people in this country who take their own lives and who never seek help for their problems. Some of it could be because they think of shrinks as wacko's I really don't know. But people who do get professonal help still do wind up killing themselves.

Soulfly

This Weekend I saw a great concert tonight at ICON Downtown. It is Soulfly, Stemm and 2 other bands I don't remember. However I became sick and got tired so I'm not going. On monday I almost bought Tickets, If I would have then I would be there tonight having a lot of fun. But then I might never get any better. I hope the people who are there have a blast and have lots of fun for me. I belive on Saturday Hoobastank and Velvet Revovler Tickets go On sale. That should be an amazing show. They Should be Guns N' Roses and Not Axel. However that brings me up to an interesting point. I don't understand that if you write a song how you can't have the rights to it. For Example The Beatles Should have the rights to anysongs that any of them wrote. The writes shouldn't be owned by a record company who can then sell them to the highest bidder then some other artist (like Micheal Jackson) gets all the royalties, that is insane. I also Heard Motley Crue is coming to Darrian Lake. I bet that will be an amazing show. I saw Vince last summer at Thursday In the square and he was amazing. I wish I could go see the entire band that would be awesome.

Art?

[inlink]ajay,279[/inlink]First of all I like that picture it is nice and sexy but dosn't really show anything so it isn't grafic. I admit I don't understand what people are saying about Craft and Art. To me it dosn't make sense. I think City Hall looks amazing I think it looks cool. Now if I understand this right since it functions as a building it is not art it is a craft. Maybe that is a bad example. What if You mould a bowl would that be a craft and how you paint it be art? But what about the fact that how that building was made hade choices. There all sorts of animals and things that I have no idea what they are bulit into the outside of the building. Who ever made that building didn't have to put that in. Maybe I just don't get it.

What about Buildings in General. I know that buldings do serve a function and that is primary. But there is also an athestic quality to them. If there wasn't then no one would care that Pano wants to destroy the house next to his resturant. I have seen some amazing looking buildings In Buffalo, Cleveland, and Toronto and some on the web.

Someone mentioned that they don't think that violance is art. I have to disagree on that one. Some of the coolest looking art that I have seen has been in comic books and Animee. Is all of that violant no but that dosn't mean that something being violant disqualifies something as art. But just because something is vilant dosn't make it art either. I think is is a lot of great vilant art in Kill Bil, but that is just me.

I admit I wish I had the talent to draw well. I would love to be able to paint dragons, make city scapes, be a tatoo artist or even maniuplate photos and other stuff also. But I admit it is a talent I don't have. But I try not to judge what is art and what isn't. If I see something that looks like art to me then it is. I have had a couple of friends who are very good at art. You see a picture they drew and you think it is good. And they say no and they point out where they messed up or how it isn't just right and i find that amazing. My main point is that there is a lot of art that I don't understand or get. What I try to do is not judge it as not being art. I just say I don't get it or I don't like it.

Patronage

[inlink]aswierat,7[/inlink] I think that the Parks should stay open and things should be funded. But raising the tax is not the answer. The problem is that Giamabra is a criminal who hires all his buddies and they do nothing. Some Jobs can be cut. But our taxes shouldn't go to support Giambra and his friends. Let the city run the parks. Regionalism is a great idea but the way they want to do it is wrong. What should happen is that Buffalo, Cheektowoga, Kenmore, Tonawanda and some of the area behind UB all become One City. You would still need all the police and Firefighters and other services but you could get rid of allot of over laping jobs that are basicly supervisors. Merging the city of Buffalo into part of the county dosn't make a lot of sense. Yes you would cut some jobs but then the city wouldn't really exsit anymore. Giambra and his croonies need to go. Reginalism does work but they need to come up with a better plan then they have now.

Oscar and more

I admit it I watched the Oscars. But I was unable to stay awake for the entire show. I liked What I saw of Chris Rock. I thought it was funny that he made fun of himself and Jude Law. I think Jude Law is a Superstar. He was supposdly done doing movies a few years ago. But then he came back to do some special movie and now is in a bunch of differant movies I did see this amazing add but I don't know if it was last night or not. It is for Afflect and this duck is doing all sorts of stuff for this guy who is injuried like paying the bills and Then the Chinese food comes and Duck is mentioned and the money gets droped. Oh that reminds me of that Pizza hut Commerical Why is miss piggy being a canabial and eating Peporoni, that is just wrong. But back to my point I liked the whole why didn't this movie work thing about the stars. But I thought the interviews at the Magic Johnson Theatre where great. There are a lot of entertaining movies that Never get Nominated for awards. But then again with movies Like Lemony Shinckts, The Increadables and Shrek 2 you can see why. I think the oscars need to expand some and add more awards. I think Team America World Police was great. I think they should have awards for Each Genre of Movie It would be more fair that way. You could have a great horror Movie and it would never be nominatd for best picture. I had something else I wanted to rant about. OH yeah the Tim Robbins moment that was perfect. I saw robins on Bill Maher and he looked completly lost the entire time.

What's Art?

[r] Wow How can I follow behind Paul that was a great post[/r]. The question of what is art comes up often. I think music is art. You can really make anything into art I think. It is all in how something is presented. If you put your atistic (what ever that it) view and add it to something to change it. If i stick my dick in paint and use it as a brush and then a chick does a differant color with a tit and another color with her other one. That is art but it most likely wouldn't be a picture I would wind up liking. I think often we try to say this is (not)art or that is(not) art. But I think that is wrong. Just like some people say rap isn't music. Rap is music you may not like it and think it takes no talent but it is still a type of music. If a bang on a table and kick a chair I can make a beat and make up a song and that is art but not very good art. Tonight the oscars are on. They are supposed to reprst the best movies of the year. I don't know what movies are nominated. I don't know if any of the movies I saw are nominated for anything. I think

Metallica Some Kind of Monster

was a great movie and should win something. I think movies are a type of art. I admit I havn't seen very many movies that you might consider artsy. But I do like good animated movies like Spirted Away and Ghost In the Shell 2. We are surrounded by art everywhere but we don't really think of allot of it as art. Some one had to design that package of Softlips you bought to keep your lips soft Or that cool pepsi symbol or that cigeratte symbol they both are versions of the Ying Yang. I think we take art for granted and don't relise how much of it is around us. I admit I hardly ever go to Art Galleries. One reason is that I don't know what type of art they are going to be showing. I'm odd about what kinds of pictures I like. I think Ice Sucputures are amazing. They look so differant when lighted at nite. I mean the big ones that they have festivals for. I had a final point I wanted to end with but I forgot it, so I hope those of you who read this enjoyed it a little bit. If my art skills in writting where better this would have been more interesting and about 10 more paragraphs.

Internet Fame

What's internet fame like, and really what is it. Is everyone on this site internet famous to each other if we only interact here. What about to those who view what we say. Or does it take us to be none and talked to offline by someone we don't know from being on line?



Well here is an article that poped up as i went on line using AOL today. I have not seen the video. Even though American Pie was meant to be funny what happens to Jim is a good point. Internet Fame is not always a good thing. That is the end of the philosphy discussion and here is the article that I read

Internet Fame Is a Cruel Mistress for a Dancer

By ALAN FEUER and JASON GEORGE, The New York Times



ABC News


Gary Brolsma of Saddle Brook, N.J., lip-syncs an obscure Romanian song. Watch Video










AOL Search:
· Numa Numa Dance

Talk About It:
· Post Messages | Chat


(Feb. 26) - There was a time when embarrassing talents were a purely private matter. If you could sing "The Star Spangled Banner" in the voice of Daffy Duck, no one but your friends and family would ever have to know.

But with the Internet, humiliation - like everything else - has now gone public. Upload a video of yourself playing flute with your nose or dancing in your underwear, and people from Toledo to Turkmenistan can watch.

Here, then, is the cautionary tale of Gary Brolsma, 19, amateur videographer and guy from New Jersey, who made the grave mistake of placing on the Internet a brief clip of himself dancing along to a Romanian pop song. Even in the bathroom mirror, Mr. Brolsma's performance could only be described as earnest but painful.

His story suggests that the quaint days when cultural trinkets, like celebrity sex tapes, were passed around like novels in Soviet Russia are over. It says a little something of the lightning speed at which fame is made these days.

To begin at the beginning:

Mr. Brolsma, a pudgy guy from Saddle Brook, made a video of himself this fall performing a lip-synced version of "Dragostea Din Tei," a Romanian pop tune, which roughly translates to "Love From the Linden Trees." He not only mouthed the words, he bounced along in what he called the "Numa Numa Dance" - an arm-flailing, eyebrow-cocked performance executed without ever once leaving the chair.

In December, the Web site newgrounds.com, a clearinghouse for online videos and animation, placed a link to Mr. Brolsma on its home page and, soon, there was a river of attention. "Good Morning America" came calling and he appeared. CNN and VH1 broadcast the clip. Parodists tried their own Numa Numa dances online. By yesterday, the Brolsma rendition of "Love From the Linden Trees" had attracted nearly two million hits on the original Web site alone.

It was just as Diane Sawyer said on her television program: "Who knows where this will lead?"


You Said It




Nowhere, apparently. For, in Mr. Brolsma's case, the river became a flood.

He has now sought refuge from his fame in his family's small house on a gritty street in Saddle Brook. He has stopped taking phone calls from the news media, including The New York Times. He canceled an appearance on NBC's "Today." According to his relatives, he mopes around the house.

What's worse is that no one seems to understand.

"I said, 'Gary this is your one chance to be famous - embrace it,' " said Corey Dzielinski, who has known Mr. Brolsma since the fifth grade. Gary Brolsma is not the first guy to rocket out of anonymity on a starship of embarrassment. There was William Hung, the Hong Kong-born "American Idol" reject, who sang and danced so poorly he became a household name. There was Ghyslain Raza, the teenage Québécois, who taped himself in a mock light-saber duel and is now known as the Star Wars Kid.

In July 2003, Mr. Raza's parents went so far as to sue four of his classmates, claiming they had placed the clip of him online without permission. "Ghyslain had to endure and still endures today, harassment and derision," according to the lawsuit, first reported in The Globe and Mail of Toronto.

Mr. Brolsma has no plans to sue, his family said - mainly because he would have to sue himself. In fact, they wish he would bask a little in his celebrity.

"I don't know what's wrong with him," his grandfather, Kalman Telkes, a Hungarian immigrant, said the other day while taking out the trash.

The question remains why two million people would want to watch a doughy guy in glasses wave his arms around online to a Romanian pop song.

"It definitely has to be something different," said Tom Fulp, president and Webmaster of newgrounds.com.

"It's really time and place."

"The Numa Numa dance," he said, sounding impressed. "You see it and you kind of impulsively have to send it to your friends."

There is no way to pinpoint the fancy of the Internet, but in an effort to gauge Mr. Brolsma's allure, the Numa Numa dance was shown to a classroom of eighth graders at Saddle Brook Middle School - the same middle school that he attended, in fact.

The students' reactions ranged from envious to unimpressed. "That's stupid," one of them said. "What else does he do?" a second asked. A third was a bit more generous: "I should make a video and become famous."

The teacher, Susan Sommer, remembered Mr. Brolsma. He was a quiet kid, she said, with a good sense of humor and a flair for technology.

"Whenever there were computer problems, Gary and Corey would fix them for the school," she said.

His friends say Mr. Brolsma has always had a creative side. He used to make satirical Prozac commercials on cassette tapes, for instance. He used to publish a newspaper with print so small you couldn't read it with the naked eye.

"He was always very out there - he's always been ambitious," said Frank Gallo, a former classmate. "And he's a big guy, but he's never been ashamed."

Another friend, Randal Reiman, said: "I've heard a lot of people say it's not that impressive - it doesn't have talent. But I say, Who cares?"

These days, Mr. Brolsma shuttles between the house and his job at Staples, his family said. He is distraught, embarrassed. His grandmother, Margaret Telkes, quoted him as saying, just the other day, "I want this to end."

And yet the work lives on. Mr. Fulp, the Webmaster, continues to receive online homages to the Numa Numa dance. The most recent showed what seemed to be a class of computer students singing in Romanian and, in unison, waving their hands.

Mr. Reiman figures the larger world has finally caught on to Gary Brolsma.

"He's been entertaining us for years," he said, "so it's kind of like the rest of the world is realizing that Gary can make you smile."

Durst

I admit it I looked at the pictures. But I didn't download the video. They wanted me to on the site to downlaod a program to watch the video and I didn't know what it was so I said screw it. That chick looks hot. For fred it is no big Deal I'm guessing he is a rock star tobad it wasn't britney though that would have been awesome. But if this is just some random chick as opposed to like a girlfriend she has to be kinda pissed. On a side note I'm glad Wes is back Bizkit wasn't the same without him he was a big part of there chemistry.
