While I'm sure they have done it before, but this one is quite hilarious. Mistaking a 14-15 year old girl for a 9 year-old.
While spying on Bill Gate's wife and children this week they snapped a photo of them out for a walk in which they try to claim his daughter is using an iPhone. Where's her hoodie sweatshirts personalized? They even conveniently blurred it up so that it was difficult to tell exactly what kind of phone it was. The comments have mixed thoughts on what it is, but one thing is sure they don't agree it is an iPhone.
While that is ridiculous in and of itself, that isn't the worst of it. The picture is actually of Gate's older daughter who is around 15 year-old. TMZ claims the girl is 9. Along with that comes the typical TMZ comments saying how she is an Amazon, and whatever else having to do with the "good steroids". No, people have no tact on the internet. Even when it comes to children if you haven't noticed.

Making my loved ones' New Year's Eve special this year
Guest post written by Marissa Kent
I remember back in the day when it seems like I always had my options open for what I was going to do for New Year's. Well, that isn't exactly the case any more. It seems like now I'm always scrambling for something to do because now that I'm older my friends are no longer in love with the idea of hosting crazy holiday parties. So I thought that I would host one this year just like old times, or at least kind of like old times!
I looked online for some ideas about what kind of refreshments I can serve at the party and while I was doing that I ran across the site http://hearingaids.miracle-ear.com/mirage-invisible-hearing-aid.html. After I looked through it a little bit I decided to go and get fitted with some hearing aids.
I have quite the feast planned for all of us, but of course of mainly finger food. We're not actually going to have a regular sit-down meal. Instead, we're going to mingle a whole lot more. Parties like that are just a lot more fun.

Sherlock Holmes 2 Wins Weekend Box Office
I'm not sure how many people liked the first Sherlock Holmes movie with Robert Downy Jr. as Holmes, but I found it rather entertaining. I'm a fan of RDJ as an actor and find him to be pretty hilarious when he does a bit of a comedic role even though he is also a great dramatic actor as well. Amazing considering how much trouble he has gotten himself into over the years.
So...I was glad to hear that Sherlock Holmes 2 was being made since Holmes is clearly one of the best book series of all-time from a crime standpoint. May be quite ridiculous at times, but still very enjoyable to me overall. Even millermatic I might say.
"Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" claims the top spot in North American box office this week. On its first weekend, the Robert Downey Jr.-starring action comedy rakes in about $40 million. The result, however, is rather disappointing since the film is expected to gross at least $50 million in its opening week, judging that its first installment "Sherlock Holmes" opened with a massive $62.3 million in 2009.

'Mythbusters' Cannonball Accident Stops Show
This is the most magical cannonball ever. Doing one of their experiments with a homemade cannon things went horribly wrong. Instead of harmlessly hitting their targets and laying to rest in their safe zone, it careened off a hill and shot into a nearby neighborhood.
The cantaloupe-sized cannonball missed the water, tore through a cinder-block wall, skipped off a hillside and flew some 700 yards east, right into the Tassajara Creek neighborhood, where children were returning home from school at 4:15 p.m., authorities said. The ball was travelling upwards of 1,000 meters per second.
There, the 6-inch projectile bounced in front of a home on quiet Cassata Place, ripped through the front door, raced up the stairs and blasted through a bedroom, where a man, woman and child slept through it all — only awakening because of plaster dust.
The ball wasn't done bouncing.
It exited the house, leaving a perfectly round hole in the stucco, crossed six-lane Tassajara Road, took out several tiles from the roof of a home on Bellevue Circle and finally slammed into the Gill family's Toyota Sienna minivan in a driveway on Springvale Drive.
Incredibly nobody was hurt, but Mythbusters has halted production in the wake of the accident. No swarovski beads for these guys.

No Such Thing as Bad Advertising
AT least according to the folks that make Words With FRiends, an app for the various smart phones and iPods we all play.
After Alec Baldwin threw a childlike fit when being asked to turn off his phone in the middle of a game when his flight was taking off Words With Friends took his side it appears. Anyone that has ever flown knows that you are asked to turn this crap off at take off and can turn it back on when in the air. OF course none of us really thinks it matters, and half the people I see have them on before the wheels even leave the ground. Still...we make an effort to not annoy the hell out of everyone on the plane by making a scene about it right?
So apprently while riding with the common folks like people working Kitchen Management Jobs, Baldwin refused and Words With Friends took advantage by throwing out a tip of the ca to Baldwin here. Personally, I think it is silly they would condone it, but we all know how people will flock to it now. Morons gun moron.

Game of Thrones Behind the Scenes Teaser Season 2
I have laid in bed almost all week with a touch of the flu so I have watched some great TV to pass the time. I actually feel like I am back in tune with what's good after watching Boardwalk Empire, The Borgias, and of course Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones was my favorite of the 3, but all 3 are fantastic series and I highly recommend them.
Of course the only one I wanted to see more of immediately was Game of Thrones. I loved it all the way through and wanted more right away so I went to Youtube. After watching a 15 minute video of Jeoffry getting slapped by the dwarf I figured I'd actually watch something for the upcoming season. There is not much out there unlike the selection of sectional sofas los angeles.
I did find this though:

I'm a Lions Fan and Even I Don't Get This
In a Friday announcement, the Lions decided to go ahead with their musical choice for the annual Thanksgiving Day game.
Football fans tuned to the Detroit Lions’ Thanksgiving Day game on Nov. 24 will be treated to a halftime performance from Nickelback, despite the protests of city residents.
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/nickelback-detroit-lions-thanksgiving-nfl-260708
This is embarrassing to be a Detroit fan reading that story. As far as I know I've never heard of anything where Nickleback said something negative about Detroit. Even if you don't like them, which I don't, does this make any sense? Did they all lose out on urban outfitters coupon at dropdowndeals?
One guy even got quoted in there as saying he'd rather see REBECCA BLACK!
It's embarrassing to me to read this story. These people all sound like complete idiots. It's on the level of the 12 year olds that spend all day mocking Justin Beiber online IMO.
I jsut don't get it. What's the deal here?

Love to Travel
Author: Jonathan Suarez
I really love traveling but in the last few years it’s been harder and harder to find the money to do it with the economy the way it is. I especially like Europe but there’s never been a time when it’s been more expensive to get over there and then travel around. I can’t do it like I used to so what I’ve actually been doing a lot of is watching travel shows on TV. I went to satellitetvfamily.com a while back and got some additional channels so now I feel like I get to travel vicariously through the world while I watch on the TV! Samantha Brown’s shows are my favorite because she’s so relatable and she goes to a lot of the places I wish I could be – it’s really fun being able to feel like I’m walking through Belgium or Italy even when it’s just her. I don’t know what I would do without this form of escape because my job and my whole life are so stressful right now!

Chocolates For the Birthday Girl
When you are getting your stockpile of gifts for the lady in your life you know what you have to do. Be a bit romantic . Start out with some chocolates for the birthday girl to go along with the flowers. Unless you are money bags and can afford expensive jewelry you need to be a bit more creative.
Finding birthday gifts for her is a lot easier I think than finding them for him. The ladies actually like romantic and "cute" stuff. Us guys could care less, and want fancy electronics most of the time, or we already bought what we wanted. We're a bit more practical. Girls like to know you put some thought into it. Maybe hook her up with Chocolate covered Birthday Berries & a Birthday Bear, or a Cheesecake Trio & Full Dozen Gourmet Dipped Fancy Berries.

Lindsay Lohan Just Never LEarns
I'm not sure anyone feels sorry for this girl. The amount of times she has been arrested, violated probation, and just plainly disregarded the law has become commonplace. That she continually gets let out of her responsibilities is not just absurd, but it is completely wrong. It's not even like you can figure she gets the special treatment for being a celeb anymore can we? Why would any judge care? She looks like death and could probably do much better locked up for a while.
Today she was supposed to show up for her first day of community service at the MORGUE, but of course she arrived late and missed her first day. 40 minutes late for her orientation on her FIRST DAY. She might not even be able to sell laser printers in a couple years the way she has gone. If she lives that long that is.
Steve Honig, Lohan's spokesman, said in a statement that the actress was late because she didn't know which entrance to report to "and confusion caused by the media waiting for her arrival." (Hurrr durrr)
That's the exact kind of excuse people who never take any responsibility toss out there. Thinking anyone actually believes it is their biggest mistake.
