…is…

, Is that Andrew kid dead, or what? Has anyone actually heard from him in the last little while? He seems to have dropped off of the face of the Earth.

The premiere edition of Foxy Fridays features one of the most attractive vixens in the movie industry today. Not only that, but it seems that any movie you see is bound to feature her. Her career is skyrocketing. And, since she is such a total knockout, if she is not in the movie that you are currently watching, you sure as hell wish she was. But I have spent enough time with a lousy introduction, and we all know that you guys want to be drooling over the wallpapers. So, step inside and get a glimpse of non-other than the lovely Scarlett Johansson.

If you do not remember seeing her in the Horse Whisperer or Eight Legged Freaks, it may have been because she was a lot younger. Since then, she has grown up and really filled out. Ah, sexy Scarlett. My muse. My scrumptious pastry. She is so sexy it is difficult for your mind not to explode when you take a look at her in some of those gowns she wears to awards night. To go off on a brief tangent, I would kill to be the guy who did this. Of course, he was gay…so maybe it is a poor trade.

But anyway, if you want to see Scarlett in her prime (read: in the buff) you should check out Love Song for Bobby Long, or Match Point. Just so you are aware, Match Point is only bearable if you tune out all the scenes that are sans-Scarlett. Otherwise, you will try to scoop your eyes out with a rusty spoon. Seriously. My girlfriend had to restrain me (although I could never truly tell her it was because Scarlett was not on screen).

As for wallpapers, I have a few choice spreads that I picked out of the vast galleries of Skins.be. I hope you enjoy them. Also, if you guys want different resolutions in the future, leave them in the comments. I have only picked out the resolutions I am running at, since I do not know what others need.

Enjoy!

When we were at Brendon’s house on Monday, I got a chance to see some interesting ThinkGeek purchases. Brian’s Miyamoto shirt. Brian’s Ninja remote, and other such nonsense. Caleb even had an animated Mario key chain, and he had Bawls mints.

And so, I started thinkings, maybe I should consider looking into making a purchase again.

The following things interest me:

The 1-Up Mushroom in this picture, and possibly the Luigi Goomba.

This looks to be a rather interesting weapon. And it would give me something to shoot at Andrew once we’re back on campus.

These Acrobots continue to appeal to me.

This 1-UP Beanie has always appealed to me, although considering we are going to summer it may not be an intelligent purchase.

Would something like this be insanely useful? Yes. That’s probably why they don’t have any in stock. And this would be so fun to use if it was not so expensive.

Do you suppose you can still bring the blue sparks with something like this?

And this shirt looks f’ing amazing.

I’m incredibly entertained by the fact that my Calculus professor’s name is Nataliya Portman.

Seems like a cool name. I wonder if she looks anything like Natalie Portman.

Also, Andrew, have you heard anything about this professor? Or how about Hoffman or Becker?

This news is more exciting than the fact that the Nintendo Wii is outselling the Playstation 3 7:1. It is news so explosive that it is likely to make people like Fraser, Dean, and my brother shit themselves with excitement, only to gorge themselves on Cheetos so they can do it all over again.

Nintendo has purchased Monolith Soft, the creators of Baten Kaitos and Xenosaga. Well, it was not an outright purchase. Nintendo holds 80% of the controlling stock, while Namco Bandai only owns 16% (of a former 96%). Can anyone grasp the magnitude of it?

First of all, it means that characters like Kalas and KOS-MOS have a chance at being featured in the next Super Smash Bros. iteration (I doubt that they will make it into this one). Also, it means that the amazing epic that is Xenosaga will not be released on the Playstation (as it has been in the past), but will instead see a successful release on a Nintendo platform. Isn’t it amazing that Sony is losing out on so many of its greatest franchises, while Nintendo is swelling? Swelling?!

Nice buy Nintendo. Very nice.

An interesting campaign to remind Canada’s youth to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

There was a heated debate about the slogan on CFRB 1010 today, due to the obviously suggestive nature of the logo: Was this an accident? Highly unlikely. This is a government program marketing a curse word to children, advertising it on T-shirts and other places. And it is clear it was no accident. Just look at the links on their website:

ARE WE FLICKED? WHO NEEDS TO FLICK OFF? GO FLICK YOURSELF FLICK TALK and, let’s not ignore the suggestive name of their upcoming contest, FLICKFEST

It is really shameful for a government program to market these shirts to children, when it is clearly suggestive of a more offensive word. As far as the program in general, if it were strictly marketed to teenagers and older, then I would consider it witty and clever (although a bit crude for a government organization). But for elementary school kids to be participating in such a program seems…wrong.

Although, the T-shirts would be awesome to have. In fact, I might consider getting one. Just to piss off all you MOTHERFLICKERS.
