I Brake For Monster Booty



Some weeks you gotta give it up for a good idea. Like compiling the best monster booty hits of all time on one CD. Honestly, I thought this was a gag until I saw the bumper sticker and I realized no one could make that up. (Hat tip to Sam at YouVert.)

Get that platinum badonkadonk this weekend. Happy Friday.

Sound Your Funky Horn



Some weeks the b-side is the best. Here's a special request from/congrats shout-out to Sweet Stacey for some Friday Funk courtesy of KC & The Sunshine Band.

And since you've been working all week, here's some other things you've might have missed...

A US Airways pilot accidentally discharged his gun in the cockpit during a flight from Denver to Charlotte, N.C., according to the Transportation Safety Administration. Sadly, nothing in that previous sentence is sexual innuendo for getting into the Mile High Club.

A 21-year-old man says he feels "pretty good," four months after he was declared brain dead and doctors were about to remove his organs for transplant. In other news, people waiting for those organs say they feel "pretty bad."

Attendance at a Buddhist temple in Japan has increased since the temple's pet, a two-year-old dog, has joined in the daily prayers. Conan, a Chihuahua, sits on his hind legs, raises his paws and puts them together at the tip of his nose. Not to be outdone, the Pope has installed a toilet-trained cat in the Vatican bathrooms.

A study of 6,583 adults found that people with the highest amount of abdominal fat between the ages of 40 and 45 were about three times more likely to develop dementia than those with the lowest amount. On the plus side, Kirstie Alley can look forward to not remembering her Jenny Craig ads.

Aníbal S. Acevedo Vilá, the governor of Puerto Rico, has been charged with 19 criminal counts related to the financing of three political campaigns from 1999 to 2004, including conspiracy to violate federal campaign laws, wire fraud and illegally using campaign funds for his personal use. Finally, a governor who remembers his job is to screw the public.

An attorney who once made People magazine's list of America's "Most Eligible Bachelors" was acquitted Wednesday of raping a 19-year-old woman, narrowly avoiding this year's list of America's "Most Eligible for Parole in 20 Years."

And finally, this 8-year-old totally shredding it on a Flying V.

Sound your funky horn this weekend. Happy Friday.

My Morning Glory Says Hello To You



Some weeks you gotta toot your own horn - so here's a little Valentine's project I just finished. It's a music video about the morning after Valentine's Day called Breakfast in Bed. Check out the the full site and spread the love at imadeyoubreakfastinbed.com.

Masticate with someone you love this weekend. Happy Friday.

Where The Love Is Free And The Freeway's Long



Some weeks are like a weeklong training session, which means the weekends are like David Brent/Ricky Gervais interrupting the training session in this episode of The Office with his musical stylings.

Get some hot love on the Hot Love Highway this weekend. Happy Friday.

Guns N' Rajas



Some weeks you gotta follow the beat of your own tabla - like these guys from India covering GnR's Sweet Child O' Mine.

Be a rock star this weekend. Happy Friday.

Our Work Is Never Over



Sometimes it feels like work is never over. But then the weekend comes and you can put your fingers to better use, like they do in this Daft Punk video for the song Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger. (Yes, I'm insanely late to the game on this, but I still like it.) Things don't get interesting until about a minute in and really take off around the two-minute mark.

Also, while I don't normally throw a second link in most posts, in honor of Norman Mailer here's his fist fight with Rip Torn on the set of Maidstone.

Let your fingers do the talking this weekend. Happy Friday.

Solid Gold



There's a saying in the ad business, "fast, cheap or good - pick two." And every week, clients pick all three. But it wasn't until this week that I found the perfect example - Solid Gold.

You can have fast women dance on cheap sets, but that doesn't mean it's going to turn out good. (It actually takes a lot of time and money to pull off the "strippers dancing ballet to Top 40 music" idea the right way.) Thanks to Sweet Stacey for the link.

Whether your dream was to be a Solid Gold dancer, or just date one, I hope you find the next best thing this weekend. Happy Friday.
