Things Smackie Thinks You Need to Know...

Ed Westwick is also in a band called Filthy Youth. An English band (obviously - or not so obvious for some of you) and hes got quite a voice. Hes also nice to look at and if you catch them in NYC, odds are all youll catch most the GG folk in tow.

He also has a bit part in the movie Son of Rambow. Great film and English (so you can catch him speaking in his native tongue).

Hard to believe anyone might not know Kristen Bell is the voice of GG. I recognized her voice the moment I heard it. Granted I also watched Veronica Mars way too much!

Smackette was equally as shocked as you are that I didn't know any of this, but in my defense of Kristen Bell I never watched Heroes or Veronica Mars so, truthfully, I didn't even know she spoke.  She probably had a few speaking parts in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but she had bathing suit on for most of the movie so I can't be faulted for not noticing.

A TV show centered around a young Kristen Bell?  Not very hard to convince me to watch that.  I'll add it to my queue...

For my second furlough day today, I'm considering writing an article for publication entitled "Why Radiohead fans all have iPhones: The Decade of the Hype Machine"

[vansmack]

Instead of writing that article that only pitchfork would pick up, I spent my day working on Windows Mobile 6.5.  I'm loving this more and more.

I'm sure only sweetcell cares, but here's why I don't use TouchFlo3D to hide WinMo flaws any longer:

Yes, Smackette has not stopped talking about it.  It just reinforces my stance on not watching The Hills without LC.

Thumbs up from me, but I am reminded about the time when young girls were showing their bellies, and a lot of those girls shouldn't have been showing their bellies.  Maybe Congress should step in.

there is a park in downtown berlin where nude sunbathing is common.  a tour guide told us "for all you americans who find this exciting, i'd like to inform you that there is a reverse correlation between how much you want to see someone naked, and how much that person is willing to be naked".

Matt Barkley
 
 Remember the name.  I've seen a lot of great QB's play in high school - Matt Leinart, Carson Palmer, Tom Brady, Todd Marinovich, Jimmy Clausen - and as a Junior, his arm strength beats them all.  By the time he gets to USC (if Pete Carroll is still there), he will be the most experienced high school QB of all time (4 year starter at Mater Dei - currently USA Today #19 in the nation).

I'm not one to miss the opportunity to toot my own horn, so without further ado....

True Freshman Matt Barkley Named USC's Starting QB

"Barkley is thought to be the first non-redshirt freshman quarterback to be picked to start a season opener for the Trojans."

[Julian, Alleged Computer F**kface]

I'm not saying that kid isn't going to be great, but he threw like a billion INTs in high school, and by many accounts, has done the same in practice. If his decision-making catches up to his clearly near-limitless physical talents, he'll be awesome, but who knows?

As usual, Kosmo rocks.  So excited for a new album and hopefully a US tour!

I'm comfortable with the subtitle "Things if Smackie knew about, he'd want you to know about."  This is the only thread I "subscribe" to, therefore posts here are proactively sent to me, so feel free to use it as you will folks.
