The Girlfriend Does The Morning Blog

Hi! Since Johnny had to rush off for an early shift at work today, he suggested that I try my hand at the Morning Blog. I laughed, thinking he was joking, but he said he was serious, so...here goes nothing!

Obviously, the format is going to be quite different, since I get most of my news from Dlisted, Facebook and Twitter, but these are some of the crumbs that popped out at me today.

Remember that Periodic Horror I posted a couple weeks ago featuring the baby trashing the bar?  Well, I Emailed Johannes Nyholm, the director of Las Palmas, expressing my love for the trailer and inquiring as to when, if ever, we'll be able to see the entire 14 minute movie online.  And he wrote me back!  He says...

Dear Kacee,
Thanks! I am glad you like it.
Not sure yet when it will be available, but pretty soon, pretty soon. I will send you a link.
Best,
Johannes

So there's that.  I'll keep you posted on when it becomes available, because I'm sure you're all waiting on the edge of your seats, like I am!

Clearly I don't know how to make the quotes appear with a fancy blue background like Johnny does, but maybe he can come back and edit that when he gets home.  Pressing on...

There is lots of stuff in the news lately about the trainwreck that is Charlie Sheen, and a lot of it is pretty bizarre, but the best tidbit I found on the topic was on Twitter via John Stamos.  He tweets...

@JohnStamos Contrary to the rumors, I am not replacing Charlie Sheen on 2 1/2 men. However, Martin Sheen has asked me to be his son.

 Haha!

Hooray!  The White House is finally joining the 21st century!

The saga between Anonymous and the Westboro Baptist Church continues.  Personally, I think this is hilarious, especially since the WBC doesn't think so.

So my friend over at Bluebonnet Bakeshop seems to be feeling better today and is making another attempt to join the rallying at the capitol building in Madison, Wisconsin! She says there are 100,000 people expected. Go get 'em!  Another fellow blogger has posted an interesting bit on Governor Walker being asked to leave a Madison restaurant.

Charts!!!!

Ahem, could Elton John pick a better godmother for his new son, Zachary?  I THINK NOT!

Thanks to The Boyfriend himself for alerting me to this horrific story about a crack bust at a daycare in the neighborhood next to where he lives.  WHAT THEE FUDGE, PEOPLE!?

Speaking of sex toys ....

That's all I could come up with today, folks!  I know I didn't live up to the usual MoBlo standards, but we're talking incredibly big shoes to fill here - HUGE!

Love,
The Girlfriend (a shameless self-promoter)
