Bonus WTF? of the month - Pint-Sized Crossdresser, Gets Drunk, Plays Grinch


"Ma'am we found your son"........ Hayden Wright is accused of stealing Christmas presents from his neighbor. It gets better. He was found at 1:45am on Tuesday wandering the mean streets of Chatanooga Tennessee, chugging a brew confused about more than his attire. The little rugrat was wearing a dress he took from under a neighbor's tree after beer. Hayden's mother, April Wright, is going through a divorce from Hayden's father, who is in jail, and she thinks he may have been looking for his dad. "He runs away trying to find his father," said 21-year-old April. "He wants to get in trouble so he can go to jail because that's where his daddy is." After a thorough investigation Chatanooga Department of Child Services informed Ms. Wright they found nothing wrong with this incident and are allowing her to keep her child. After all it is Tennessee.

Tim Burton x Museum of Modern Art Exhibit


“Following the current of his visual imagination from early childhood drawings through his mature work, the exhibition presents artwork generated during the conception and production of his films, and highlights a number of unrealized projects and never-before-seen pieces, as well as student art, his earliest non-professional films, and examples of his work as a storyteller and graphic artist for non-film projects. The opposing themes of adolescence and adulthood, and the elements of sentiment, cynicism, and humor inform his work in a variety of mediums—drawings, paintings, storyboards, digital and moving-image formats, puppets and maquettes, props, costumes, ephemera, sketchbooks, and cartoons. Taking inspiration from sources in pop culture, Burton has reinvented Hollywood genre filmmaking as a spiritual experience, influencing a generation of young artists working in film, video, and graphics.”

The exhibition is on until April 26, 2010, so make sure to pass by! - AP

Song of the Week- Julian Casablancas "11th Dimension"


The Strokes frontman, steps out into the world of solo artists. Leading single of the album Phrazes For The Young. This is a total unexpected turn of expectancy, not the average Indie-Rock, Strokes song. I find this song brilliantly pieced together with an 80's touch of rock-dance sounds. This leads me to give a 4 out of 5 Stars. Go support music!
