That's not really her butt...

What did you think of Venus Williams' outfit at the French Open? Look closely: The shorts under the skirt were the same color as her skin, to give the illusion that she wasn't wearing anything underneath.

I personally think it sucked. Plain and simple. The whole "I'm playing tennis and wearing lingerie" thing, just didn't do it for me. Plus, with all her muscles, she kinda looks like a drag queen in that getup. There, I said it.

Thoughts?

Food shortage joke

A worldwide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was:"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?" The survey was a huge failure... In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.

In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant. In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant. In South America they didn't know what "please" meant. And in the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant

BUSTED

Pinny-Pin-Pin got busted in the dishwasher!

Looks like a blast!

I saw this PEN fair while I was walking down 44th street the other day. Of course, the immature side of me wanted to find a black sharpie and add "IS" before the word "FAIR," but I resisted.

A pen fair, though? Really?

Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang

This weekend me and Cory went to Chelsea Handler's stand up show at Radio City Music Hall! It was SO much fun! She was hilarious! And she had Josh Wolf open for her (hottie!) During his bit, he said something about having a TEENAGE son and I said "WHAT?!" from the audience. He HEARD me and goes, "Who said WHAT?" Everyone laughed and I screamed for him again. It was pretty darn funny :)

The only bad thing was that the show was SO short! Chelsea was on for about an hour and then it was completely over! Our tickets were EXPENSIVE too, so I feel like it was kinda lame that it was shorter even than going to the movies.

Afterwards, we went out and Cory became my new talent agent! She found a music producer on the street and I sang for him! Good times :)

Holophonic Sound

THIS IS THE COOLEST thing I might have ever discovered! Seriously! (Oh and before you click the link, make sure you have headphones)

Try out Holophonic Sound!

Whoa!

Michael Kors has the most ENORMOUS outtie belly button I've ever SEEN!

If you missed it...

If you missed out my performance with the Coup 2 weeks ago, never fear! We are kicking it AGAIN at Peabody's Pub in Havertown THIS FRIDAY at 9:30pm! Can't wait! The set list is hot, and we're gonna go bananas all up in that place!

I'm super excited for the show Friday night, crashing with Joe & Erika, then heading back to NYC on Saturday for CHELSEA HANDLER at Radio City Music Hall on Saturday night with Cory and Carmen T. !! PLEEEEASE make the weekend come faster!

Oh and HEYYYY... our trip to Toronto is just 2 weeks away! Me, Cory, and Dan are gonna paint the town (Canada-flag) RED with my Canadian friends! Can't wait to be back in my home and native land!

Shit my Kids ruined

WOW! check out this website (and show it to teenage girls for birth control!)

Make sure you view the ARCHIVE too for more pics!

panic attack!

While we were headed out the door this weekend, I happened to look down at my finger and noticed my diamond engagement ring was NOT on my finger. I panicked, and Dan, Brandon & I tore the whole place upside down looking for it. After 20 minutes of searching, we STILL hadn't found it; now I was beyond panicking!

Dan was the hero that finally found it...at the bottom of the TRASH CAN! Can you believe it? I felt sick just thinking about what would have happened if that diamond would have been thrown in the trash!

Lesson: stop being so distracted and rushing to get out of the house. Dan said that the lesson was to not give him a hard time about losing his iPhone this week :)

Crayola in Arizona

Gregory's

I stopped here for coffee this morning (I walk by this cafe on 44th and 6th almost every day) and I always think of Michelle and Nathaniel! Their little baby is named Gregory!

Cute!

Over postaging

Remember a couple years ago when we were warned about accepting mail with excess postage because of the threat of ANTHRAX? That's what came to mind when I recieved this letter at my office today.

It made me laugh, though! I can picture this lady raiding her kitchen junk drawer, searching for 1 cent stamps. And man, her tongue must have been dry after licking them!

...speaking of which, why haven't they invented flavoured envelope glue yet? Someone needs to get on that...

51, people. FIFTY-ONE!

Oh, Madonna. How is it possible for you to have those amazing abs of steel at 51? Oh yeah, right... Hundreds of Millions of dollars and a thousand times more willpower than the rest of us.

Oil Spill Explained

Sunset on the Hudson

Just had to share this gorgeous and serene picture I took from our dining table last night. What a view, right? We are blessed to have a quiet home with a peaceful view in the midst of this crazy, loud city!

Times Square Scare

Hi everyone- crazy about the bomb that was discovered in Times Square this weekend! Have you heard? Well, here’s our side of the story: as some of you know, we live very close to Times Square. Our building is just 3 avenues west of where the bomb was discovered. Only the tourists in the streets of Times Square were evacuated, not the people in the residential buildings, so we were fine. At the time the whole thing happened, we were actually shopping at Diesel on 59^th and Lex. Normally, we take the subway through Times Square to get back home, but it was hot and we took a cab instead. The cab drove us across the park and down the west side (again, unusual, since we would usually come down the east side and then across 42^nd street, through Times Square, but hey, in retrospect, it all worked out for the best. It would have been madness to be in the subways or traffic as they were evacuating, so thankfully we avoided it all.

I’m very grateful to the street vendor who was alert and responded quickly when something seemed to be “off” about that car. Being alert and being observant is VERY important when you live in NYC. I’ve had several times when I’ve had gut feelings about people following me or making me feel uncomfortable, and I’ve always gone to the police about it. Better safe than sorry! Security is very tight in Times Square today- I walked through as usual on my way to work and there are cops everywhere, keeping close eyes on things. The subways are being closely watched too (anyone who has visited New York knows how lack the security in the subways usually is.)

So life goes on in the Big Apple- this is Carmin the Canadian, over and out!
