I just finished the Seventh Episode of The Hills from Season One. This episode was entitled "Somebody Always Has to Cry" and it was their Christmas/New Year's episode. I am actually ironically watching it the Wednesday before Easter so although another Christian Holiday, it is far from the most wonderful time of the year and I would even go so far as to say it is the most depressing time of the year. I can't really think of any other time during the year where it gets more depressing than this.

Jersey Shore: Season One, "Fade to Black"
I am just wrapping up the Fourth Episode of Jersey Shore from Season One. It's pretty good but I am tired of seeing repeats of this show. What I need to do is buy the Third Season, considering I have not seen it in entirety. That will be exciting but I am nowhere near doing that so I will have to suffer through Seasons One and Two to get there.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians: Season One, "Helping Hand"
That was a great episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians entitled “Helping Hand”. I thoroughly enjoyed it because The Kardashians were helping a homeless person. That homeless person looked terrible in the beginning. However once they were through with him; he shone. Probably not as bright as them, but he did none the less. They shine all the time so it’s not as though I am - not - accustomed to them shining; whereas he was new on the scene, so to see him shine was amazing.
The Simple Life 3: Interns, "Firefighters"
That was a great episode of The Simple Life. I really enjoyed it and because I took such a long break from it, I most likely enjoyed it more than I usually would. I love Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie even to this day, taking into account the onslaught of The Kardashians and my recently purchased Reality television show, entitled The Hills.
Legend of the Seeker: Season One, "Confession"
That was actually a really boring episode from Legend of the Seeker. I have seen it before so I know it’s boring but I have this bad habit of watching things that are boring, so I indulged. I am looking forward to the rest of the season, I think. Otherwise I will just give this series away because I am so tired of watching the exact same content, numerous times. I have better things to do with my life and it is not seeing something a million times.
Rome: Season One, "Pharsalus"
I finally finished the Seventh Episode of Rome. I started watching it before Christmas and I am only now getting to the rest, as I was devoting myself to Christmas-related material over the Holidays and Rome is far from Christmas-related; although it shares some very distinct characteristics of the religion that is promoted at Christmas (written at the beginning of 2012).
The Tudors: Season Two, "Lady in Waiting"
That was a pretty great episode of The Tudors. Ever since my neighbor moved in and I found out what his name is I have been envisioning him as The King as he himself is named after a famous King of England as well. That would be King Arthur and for those of you who are not familiar, there is a movie from 2004 about him; one coming out next year and countless Television Shows related to the Arthurian Legend.

Missy Misdemeanor Elliott: They Don’t Wanna F** wit Me
I finally finished my T.I./Missy Elliott Playlist
which actually took me a long time to get through. It was pretty amazing though, even though my
neighbors think it was a little derogatory, I am assuming.
But that’s just because they are not as Hood as me. The Hood and I go way back. I can’t remember not living in a Hood unless
you consider the House I grew up in when I was a child. Since then it has been Ghetto city. But not your typical Ghetto. More like the Ghettos in Poland when Nazi Germany was on the rise.
Missy Misdemeanor Elliott featuring Da Brat: Sock It 2 Me
Wow I couldn’t even fit Missy Elliott into that
playlist. I am kind of bored with her
tunes. I have listened to them over and
over. Whereas T.I. is still pretty fresh
in my mind. In particular his sixth
studio album entitled Paper Trail. I
think it’s amazing and I also think that Supa Dupa Fly is pretty good too. But I have listened to it several times. Sock It 2 Me, however is a great track and so
are most of the other tracks on this CD.
Missy Misdemeanor Elliott featuring Lil’ Kim: Hit ‘Em wit da Hee
Hit ‘Em wit da Hee is a great track. It is found on Missy Elliott’s debut studio
album entitled: Supa Dupa Fly and I
highly recommend it; along with the album, even more so the album. Apparently an artist named Mocha is also
featured on this track along with Lil Kim.
I find that odd but it’s neat in a way since my Mother has a cat of the
same name even though it is spelled Moka, as in the artist Moka Only.
So Hit ‘Em wit da Hee is a great lead single, but was only released as
the fourth single; perhaps it was too racy.
Missy Misdemeanor Elliott: She’s a B****
I just finished listening to my T.I./Missy Elliott
playlist and it was pretty great even though I left out Missy Elliott. I have definitely overplayed Missy Elliott
and at this point there really isn’t any need to do it any further; although I
would love to. I decided instead to
listen to T.I. only and that was amazing.
I can’t seem to get enough of what I call his most successful album
entitled: Paper Trail. It has some of the best lyrics I have ever
heard. I find it thrilling and amazing
although I would have a hard time finding people around here, in the province
of which I live, who would agree.
Missy Misdemeanor Elliott: Beat Biters
Another day of T.I. and Missy Elliott since I am
featuring them on my Blog as the homepage; my seven entries I feature at a time, since by default my Blog has seven entries per page. I never saw the need to change that since it
seems perfect, given the hidden meaning behind the number seven.
T.I.: No Matter What
No Matter What was released as a promotional track or
single for the massively successful sixth studio album released by T.I. That says it all right there however, there
was even a video released to this promotional track which shows you the
magnitude at which this album in particular, catapulted him into stardom. It’s phenomenal really and the album itself
only spawned four official singles, excluding this one of course, however it’s
safe to say that this particular song is one of the best on the album.
T.I.: I’m Illy
I’m Illy is a great song choice to open one of the
most phenomenal records in History.
Paper Trail goes beyond belief when you are listening to it. It encompasses some of the greatest Hip Hop I
have ever heard and T.I. quite frankly, is the first male rapper that I have
entertained. I was more of a Missy Elliott fan and of course Lil’ Kim. But
T.I. has opened my eyes to whole new Genre of Music and that would be male
rapping.

The Hills: Season One, "Boyfriends & Work Don’t Mix"
I just finished the Sixth Episode of The Hills, and it was
pretty good. I have actually been
watching a lot of Heidi Montag’s Music video entitled: Superficial. That is her debut single and I must say it is
pretty good. Having said that; this
episode was not nearly as good, but it was entitled: "Boyfriends & Work
Don’t Mix." So it was somewhat good
because I believe firmly in that fact.
Boys are just a distraction to girls trying to get a good job.
Jersey Shore: Season One, "Good Riddance"
I just finished a pretty good episode of Jersey Shore. What I am really looking forward to is
getting the Third Season on DVD. I have
been putting it off for a while, but I might finally cave in this year. I am actually looking forward to getting that
season on DVD, more than any other season so far, as I have not seen that entire
season yet; whereas I saw most of the First and Second Seasons before I
received them on DVD.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians: Season One, "You Are So Pregnant, Dude"
I am now watching the Sixth Episode of Season One, from Keeping Up with the Kardashians, entitled "You Are So Pregnant, Dude". I was so inspired by the Third Episode from the Third Season that I decided to watch this episode. Moments later... That was a great episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. I am so impressed with this series. I love it and I just want more, but they can’t release the seasons fast enough on Amazon.com.
The Simple Life 3: Interns, "Ad Agency"
That was a good little episode of The Simple Life; however
it was not nearly as exciting as the preceding episodes. This is when the series in my opinion starts
to lose focus and becomes somewhat redundant.
So having said that I am still looking forward to the next few episodes, and as well the Fourth and Fifth Seasons entitled: ‘Til Death Do Us Part and Goes to Camp, respectively.
Legend of the Seeker: Season One, "Sacrifice"
That was a great episode, care of Legend of the Seeker. It was really fantastic and I enjoyed it
because it was the very first episode I ever saw from Legend of the Seeker, back
in the day. Of course this was back at
the height of the Great Recession, so I have fond memories of this show in
particular, as it got me through that time period. It was pretty dark for me so something
uplifting like this show was just what the doctor ordered.
Lost: Season Five, "Follow The Leader"
That was a pretty good episode of Lost, being the Fifteenth Episode, in a sixteen episode season; and of course I am referring to the Fifth Season. It was entitled: "Follow
The Leader" and so therefore it was pretty interesting as I am having a
hard time following the leader myself.
Even though there is really no other way. However the leader makes it difficult which
is why it is so interesting and captivating to follow the leader. No one likes following the leader, and in this
instance you can insight the leader as anyone you consider your leader. My leader is my inspiration and reason for
waking up in the morning.
Ugly Betty: Season Three, "Crimes of Fashion"
I just finished the Third Episode of Ugly Betty from SeasonThree entitled “Crimes of Fashion.” It
was pretty interesting but having seen it before, not as interesting as it
could have been. I am looking forward to
getting some new material because some of the shows I am watching are a little
dry and I have since disconnected my Digital Cable so I am left with
practically nothing in terms of fresh material to consume through Television. One reason I did that is because
I am still waiting for my HDTV and until that happens I am not going to invest
very much in the Television industry.

P!nk: Raise Your Glass
Raise Your Glass was released about a month before P!nk’s
Greatest hits album entitled: Greatest Hits… So Far!!! It’s actually a great
Compilation album and I highly recommend it even though I didn’t download it
all. However I had some of her preceding
work on MP3 so it was pointless to download everything. But Raise Your Glass is definitely a keeper
and you should most definitely purchase it.
P!nk: Please Don’t Leave Me
I just finished listening to Please Don’t Leave Me
from my most recent P!nk Playlist. It
was pretty exciting and all I could think about were all of my neighbors who
live in the building I live in; who I have met and how I don’t mean to be a
rude person, but when my heart is
breaking; as it says in the song, I can’t really help it.

P!nk: Sober (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)
I just finished listening to my most recent P!nk
Playlist. It was pretty exciting but I
can't remember what song I am Blogging about so I will just go with the
flow. Sometimes I Blog so much that I
can't remember where I put my latest entry and that confuses me but it is just
part of the program. I am writing this on my
BlackBerry PlayBook tablet computer so I don’t have access to my master files
on my main Computer. Therefore I am
publishing this particular Blog entry for the Bimbo Jones Radio Edit of Sober; now that I have had access to my main Computer.
P!nk: U + Ur Hand
U + Ur Hand was released as the third single to I’m Not Dead but it was effectively the second single from I’m Not Dead as when the
supposed second single was released worldwide it went nowhere. In fact it was then re-released as the fourth
single in the United States of America.
Of course I am referring to Who Knew, which I also enjoy. However U + Ur Hand was – the – single which
brought I’m Not Dead back to life. In
fact U + Ur Hand did so good that it effectively surpassed Stupid Girls as the
most successful single released from I’m Not Dead until the re-release of Who Knew. But even then it’s a tossup as far as I am concerned.
Thursday, May 24, 2012
P!nk: Who Knew (The Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)
The Bimbo Jones Radio Edit of Who Knew is
fantastic. I highly recommend it. In fact I highly recommend any Bimbo Jones
remix for the most part, especially any done for P!nk. P!nk is an amazing artist in general but any
remix done for her care of Bimbo Jones is usually out of this world. Who Knew was released as the fourth single
from I’m Not Dead in the United States of America, whereas in the rest of the world it was released as the second. Between U + Ur Hand and Who Knew;
those are really the two singles that saved this album from utter annihilation.
P!nk: Stupid Girls (Junior Vasquez & Dynamic Remix – Radio Mix)
The original version to this song, or album version, is
so much better than this particular remix.
I love Junior Vasquez but I think he had his time. I remember him fondly from the 1990s, during which
he remixed several Madonna songs. That
is most likely why I like him so much but if you are going to buy any version
of this song, Stupid Girls; then I highly recommend the original even though I don’t actually
own the original, but I am assuming it is very similar to the Music video
version, only better.
P!nk: Just Like a Pill
Just Like a Pill was released as the third single
from Missundaztood. It’s a pretty good
song but I was never really a huge fan of that album. Although I love Don’t Let Me Get Me, but by the time of its release I was feeling a little bit
of P!nk fatigue. Especially considering
she released the lead single from this album entitled: Get the Party Started
immediately after the tragic events of September 11th. It was difficult to party after that.
Season of the Witch
I just wrapped up the first half of Season of the Witch and it was really amazing. This story takes place in Europe, a place I am in love with at the moment. I even have dreams of one day moving to the European Union as things seem so much more romantic there. For instance I have been watching a lot of Movies that take place in the European Union and the landscape is compelling; especially in places such as Germany, France and throughout the Austrian countryside. I just think that Europe is a fascinating place unlike North America which bores me to tears.
... I finished Season of the Witch before the preceding Movie I was watching as it is more exciting
and was more exciting as well. Of course
I have seen it fewer times, however I still feel as though the Plot is thicker
than the preceding film I am referring to.
That film is The Fighter and although it too has a great Plot, the plot
in Season of the Witch is centered in Christianity and that just makes me feel
better than watching a movie about Boxing.
Having said that, Christian Bale is in The Fighter and I tend to like
people with that first name. But nothing
beats a good story about the destruction of Evil at the hands of God.

Inside Job
I just wrapped up the first half of Inside Job. I must say this Documentary, in particular, is particularly riveting; considering I slept through most of the Financial crisis. But that was due in large part to severe exhaustion. I don’t feel bad that I was completely exhausted. But I do feel bad that other people had to suffer through it. It’s not my intention to destroy the world when I feel as though I need to do something, nor am I saying that my particular actions led to the Financial crisis. But what I am saying is that we are all connected and if I was feeling exhausted, I am sure I wasn’t the only one. Not only that but I was obviously not the one who caused it, since it was a group effort or a Crisis of uniform collaboration across Markets.
... I just wrapped up
Inside Job. Inside Job is one of my
favorite Documentaries of all time. It
is right up there with An Inconvenient Truth in my mind, if not surpassing
it. An Inconvenient Truth came out a
long time ago so it is not nearly as relevant as Inside Job, although it may
contain some more interesting footage as far as the Earth is concerned; however I have a Business mind as well, so
anything Economically related is interesting to me. Not everyone feels the same, but I watched the
economic news channel CNBC for years during most of the fallout from the
Economic crisis so anything related to that is very interesting to me. It's not as though I take pleasure in peoples
pain; rather I feel as though my own
situation directly correlates with what happened during those years.
Predators
I am in the middle of watching Predators and I have decided this is the last run-through for me as I have seen it numerous times and to be quite frank, I am getting sick of it. Adrien Brody is an amazing actor but I am ready to see him in something else and something a little more Artistic. He is most well known, in my mind, for his role in The Pianist; a 2002 film of a more Artistic making considering its wide appeal in the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences community, of which I am a huge fan. Adrien Brody actually won the Academy Award for Best Actor in 2003; following the success of that film and is the youngest actor for doing so, to this day, at the tender age of 29.
... Well I finally
finished Predators. I plan on giving it
to my neighbor now that I am through with it, but if he doesn’t want it then I
am sure someone else will. It’s a great
movie even though it’s a little dry in parts but that’s because it is somewhat
of a Horror movie and those are always a little disappointing as far as
Storyline and Plot go. Adrien Brody
really brings it to life, however, and there are a few others, namely Topher Grace; most well known for his role on That ‘70s Show.
The Town
I just finished the first half of The Town again; for the umpteenth time. It was pretty exciting and I highly recommend it. Ben Affleck is one amazing actor. Of course Jeremy Renner is amazing as well and Jon Hamm isn’t so bad. However the star of the show is Ben Affleck given that he directed this film and wrote the Screenplay. That’s pretty outstanding in my mind and to top it all off The Town features one of my favorite cities in North America, Boston. The Town is a great film but it is most definitely not for the faint of heart. It is graphic, disturbing and if you are a cop-lover then you will most likely not enjoy it. But since I am such a huge Ben Affleck fan, I adore it.
... I finally finished
The Town as it was taking me forever to build up the urge to watch it
again, that is the ending. But after I decided that I was
listening to, and Blogging about, too much Music and not watching enough movies,
I thought that I would get back to my film watching; and I am actually on yet another
Movie right now. The Town is great and
all, but I have seen it so many times that I am literally dying for new
material. I am going to see a movie in
April and I just saw one this month, written in March. But
that is nothing in comparison to what I was doing. Watching Movies was pretty much a daily
occurrence in my former lifestyle. I
have since decided to cancel my Digital Cable and give away most of my movies, along with not watching the same movie one hundred times.
The Social Network
I am in the middle of watching The Social Network. It’s really amazing but it is getting a little tiresome. I find myself also getting tired of the real thing: being Facebook itself. I have these moments in my life, recently, where I completely ignore it and then it makes a huge comeback but I am gearing up for the day when I don’t use it. Not sure when that will be but in about ten years I would say, hardly anyone is going to use it. The Internet will have morphed into something completely different and I can already see the beginning stage of that.
... I just wrapped up
The Social Network and it was pretty great.
I am completely over Facebook, but it definitely helped me get to the level I am at. I told myself that this year, 2012, was
all about my Blog and so far I have about 345 entries published, along with many
more to be published, and I am always working on writing more. It is going pretty good and the funny thing
is Mark Zuckerberg also started Blogging before he created Facebook. So I guess you can say I am on the right
track. I am definitely looking forward
to the day when I do not have to Blog as much because it increases your
Creativity skills and mine are about full.
I would like to work on something else for a change in order to develop
a more well-rounded-worker.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
I am at the very beginning of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. It’s pretty amazing as it features one of my favorite actors of all time, Jake Gyllenhaal. His real name is actually Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal, according to Wikipedia and IMBd. So therefore he has the same real first name of another very famous person in History. That Jacob was the grandson of Abraham, the son of Isaac and the third Patriarch of the Hebrew people. So that Jacob is also the father of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, making his name synonymous with Israel. Meaning Jacob actually means Israel; and Jake Gyllenhaal also has the same middle name as one of the most famous Tribes, being Benjamin.
... That was a great
way to wrap up the ending of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. I enjoy that film although I am completely
sick of it after seeing it numerous times.
However I learned something new: some lives are linked across time. That’s assuming you believe in multiple lives
or what have you, the concept that you will live forever in different
forms. Anyhow I quite enjoyed that film
and I am looking forward to some more Jake Gyllenhaal work. For example I have another one of his movies
on Blu-ray Disc and that is exciting because it is in High-definition. The name of that film is Source Code.
Alice in Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland was a great film, in 2010. I even went so far as to download, legally of course, Alice; a song inspired by the movie. This is where it gets confusing, there are apparently two soundtracks; or at least two albums you can buy with music from the Motion picture: Alice in Wonderland. The first one is of course the soundtrack to the film entitled, Alice in Wonderland: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack and the second is, Almost Alice (Music Inspired By the Motion Picture). I chose to download Alice because it is a song performed by Avril Lavigne and at the time I was downloading What the Hell, a song from her most recent studio album.
After completing the film: That was a great way to wrap up Alice in Wonderland. I love that movie so much that I decided to purchase the DVD after having seen it in the theatre as well. However I am tired of watching it numerous times. It’s time for me to gift it to someone and I have the perfect person in mind. I did love watching the credits though, this time around, as it highlighted the song aforementioned above, Alice by Avril Lavigne. I prefer her Music for this film as it showcases her true talent and that of the film. It is perfectly beautiful to watch this film and unleash the magic it creates. There are a few lines in particular I am fond of. For example: “Sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” I also enjoy: “One, there are drinks that make you shrink. Two, there are foods that make you grow. Three, animals can talk. Four, cats can disappear. Five, there is a place called Underland. Six, I can slay the Jabberwocky.” Those are some pretty fabulous quotes and I have taken them from the Website: http://www.IMDb.com.

Britney Spears: I Wanna Go (Pete Phantom Remix)
The Pete Phantom Remix of I Wanna Go is pretty good, but I am
pretty sure I prefer the original. I
have to review to find out for sure. But
I am thinking it has a better sound since I wasn’t really impressed with any of
the I Wanna Go remixes, and I even went so far as to download the UK Maxi-single
as opposed to the one available in the United States of America. I just wanted some diversity, and I thought that
the Club scene would be better in the European Union and of course I was right. But it was
still a little farfetched considering I probably would have done better if I
downloaded the Maxi-single from Germany let’s say. However those types of things are not
available on my choice of download Application.

Britney Spears: Till the World Ends (Alex Suarez Club Remix)
The Alex Suarez Club Remix of Till the World Ends is a
pretty good remix. Ok so I went so far
as to download the Maxi-single on MP3 to Till the World Ends, even after I downloaded
the single of the song, because it contains many remixes of Till the World Ends as well as
the original. But I was not privy to
that information before I downloaded the single of the song. So having said that; I then went on to
download the MP3 of the Alex Suarez Club Remix of Till the World Ends; from B In the Mix – The Remixes, Vol. 2 because that particular remix was not included on
the Maxi-single.
Britney Spears: Till the World Ends
Another great way to wrap up my most recent Britney Spears
Playlist; I must say that Britney Spears deserves a good break after that huge
comeback Era. If anyone thought that
Britney Spears fell off the face of the planet after that; then they are dead
wrong. It’s amazing what she has done
really. Going from a Mother on the go to
a full on Pop star again. Although I
hear she is taking an extended break, so that’s good because the Queen of Pop is
actually making a comeback – now.
