Adam Lambert for the Twilight Saga Soundtrack!
Even though Adam Lambert was denied the title of American Idol, I think he’d make a perfect fit on one of the soundtracks of the Twilight saga! The singer is definitely Team Edward and can even be a vamp stand in if needed.
Adam’s rendition of Mad World is his Twilight audition.
Mad World has had an interesting past. I didn’t know Tears for Fears originally wrote and performed the song. It’s definitely changed (for the better I think). Take a listen.
I first encountered this song in 2006 from the Gears of War game commercial. After some research, I found the song was redone for the Donnie Darko soundtrack.
And now Adam imparts his personality on this haunting song.
Meet Luna Purplefruit
Meet the latest Disney fairy to join Pixie Hollow. It’s Luna Purplefruit.
Make your own fairy or explore the online world at Pixie Hollow.
Hotness: Mighty Muggs
Caught my first sight of Mighty Muggs. Hotness!
These collectible figurines feature characters from Transformers, G.I. Joe, Marvel, Star Wars, and more. You can even design your own Mighty Mugg.
Live in Hawaii for Better Mental Health
According to the Journal of Preventative Medicine and Penelope Trunk.
Skynet is Now Active!
Otherwise how do you explain the two big upsets this week on Dancing with the Stars and American Idol? Skynet has got to be messing with the voting system for both shows, screwing over Gilles Marini and Adam Lambert.
What other explanation can there be? Can’t be human fears of xenophobia or homophobia, can it?
A (Limited) Twitter Tee Deal
I’ve been fiending a Valdezign Twitter shirt for some time, and now these Threadless Twitter tees got me a flitter. In the ways of Steven Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, how can we think win-win and synergize some creative cooperation?
How about this? I have a few Twitter tee submissions, and it would be absolutely cool if one of these became a shirt. And here’s where I need help and the win-win proposition comes in. For my fellow “Warriors,” how about voting for one of my Twitter tee submissions (probably this one) and getting your followers to vote as well? I’m talking to you:
- @ktcat
- @teejaygee
- @ryankanno
- @pickinmachine
- @glycerine
- @abaggy
- @chris_blaine
- @garykoch
- @kauwek2
If my submission wins, I’ll buy you either a Threadless Twitter tee or a Twitter name shirt from Valdezign. Sound good? Place your vote!
Wall Street Journal Talks “Twuating” (Sorta)
The Wall Street Journal has an article about owning your personal name on social media sites such as LinkedIn, MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter. What they’re really talking about is twuating. 😉

It Takes a Man to Talk Manscaping and Mankinis
It surely takes a man secure in his own masculinity to discuss the topics of manscaping and mankinis. No, not me! Danny Wood of NKOTB, you are that man.
I guess if you can still draw in thousands of females, no one can doubt your manscaping ways.
BTW, thanks to John Mayer for modeling the Borat-inspired mankini.
Kim Willoughby Rage from Roids?
The timing of these articles can’t get much better. Former UH volleyball star, Kim Willoughby tests positive for steroid use and also is in court for an assault case in which she punched a woman several times, breaking a nasal bone and eye socket.
Roid induced rage?
Props to @coachdeano for pointing this out.
