Client: “I take it, since I haven’t heard from you, that you are not interested in building my website.”

Me: “I told you I wasn’t interested when I left your office. I can’t imagine why you expected to hear from me.”

Client: “Well, have you changed your mind about working on it?”

Me: “Have you changed your mind about wanting me to do it for free?”

Client: “You would get stock.”

Me: “You don’t HAVE stock. It doesn’t work that way.”

Client: “Well, I am faxing you a non-disclosure agreement.”

Me: “Okay. Why?”

Client: “So you don’t steal my presentation materials and pass them off as your own.”

Me: “I never received any presentation materials.”

Client: “Yes, you did. I showed you the presentation in my office.”

Me: “Are you under the impression that I memorized and re-created your powerpoint presentation?”

Client: “Well, just don’t.”

The man I call an inspiration for my own recovery as well and my idea of the supreme rock star, Steven Tyler talked recently about addiction, the band and the future:

"Being in Aerosmith is like living on the tail of a comet. I've had a lot of injuries over the last couple of the years. I had ACL reconstruction on my knee … operations on my feet, my mom passed away. A lot of things came to play that made it easy for me to abuse some things. … Even though some of the people in the band were going public with some of the stuff which turned very ugly, I managed to pull it all back together again and say, "Look, let's just get out there and be the band that we know we are and not argue about this crap anymore."

I'm doing a book called "Does the Noise in My Head Bother You," and I will be speaking about what it's like to be married to four other guys, and what I've had to put up with. … There will never be another band like Aerosmith, and I just don't want to do anything to hurt that. I love the band so much.

The truth is I've never stopped writing. I've got 12 songs I'm sitting on right now for a solo record. Aerosmith has to finish a studio album; we're gonna do that first.

I realize that the best part of me is who I am sober so that's all there is to it. … I don't know whether I will use tomorrow, but today I'm happy. … There's a 500-pound gorilla on my back, waiting in the parking lot for me that wants to take me down, and I won't for any reason go out there and deal with that. I have to get a knee replacement, I have to have another operation on my feet, and I'll let a nurse take care of my stuff. I just can't be around that stuff anymore. I need to be a power of example for my bandmates, don't I? (laughs)… I'm still in Aerosmith so the circus is still in town. So when it comes to dealing with the band, I take it a day at a time with these guys."

Also, from the looks of this video, the boys from Boston are still rocking on their new World Tour! Aerosmith fans are awesome, look at how many are there and it is pouring down rain. Hehe, wish I was there...

Good old Wikipedia helped for this explanation:

"Tilt-shift photography" refers to the use of camera movements on small- and medium-format cameras, and sometimes specifically refers to the use of tilt for selective focus, often for simulating a miniature scene. Sometimes the term is used when the shallow depth of field is simulated with digital postprocessing; the name may derive from the tilt-shift lens normally required when the effect is produced optically.

"Tilt-shift" actually encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt is used to control the orientation of the plane of focus (PoF), and hence the part of an image that appears sharp; it makes use of the Scheimpflug principle. Shift is used to adjust the position of the subject in the image area without moving the camera back; this is often helpful in avoiding the convergence of parallel lines, as when photographing tall buildings.

Enjoy the pictures!

P!nk is just an amazing, bad ass, in your face rockin' chick. Her lyrics are passionate, heartfelt, experiential, raw, explosive.... I can just go on and on about her. The best work yet to hit the airwaves is her most recent album, "Funhouse" and it chronicles her turbulent relationship with her husband, Cary Hart, professional motocross racer.

Her promo for the summer tour follows the video below of her singing "Glitter in the Air"
Her acrobatic performance at the Grammy Awards while singing COMPLETELY live stunned everyone. And to think she did that every night on tour here in the states. Wish I caught the show!

Here is a glimpse of her Summer European Tour... wish I could go there, too!

Well Whitney's "Nothing But Love" tour in Europe has been riddled with all sorts of problems, but at least she continues on. Many have speculated her cancellations here and there were due to her supposed relapse and drug related issues. Her camp is claiming respiratory infection and doctors orders.

Well now the once svelte Whitney seems to be enjoying room service a little bit too much, ballooning up to 175lbs! Her camp claims its a side effect of steroid injections or prednisone treatments for her respiratory infection.

At another tour date hundreds walked out of her concert in Denmark midway through, complaining about her poor performance and faltering voice. One critic in attendance wrote, "She looked and sounded like a person who doesn't have many years left to live. At the end of the show she looked like she was ready to explode."

Guess that beats crack! Go Whitney stay strong and sober girl!

Holy shiznit! Whatchu talkin' 'bout Willis?

Sources have just uncovered court papers that prove Gary Coleman had divorced Shannon Price prior to his untimely death.

The documents state that they were legally divorced in August 2008, with Gary filing for a divorce from Shannon. According to the agreement, there was to be no alimony payments and all properties were awarded to Gary.

So, then, if this is true, did Shannon Price  have the legal right to decide to take Gary off life support? According to a hospital rep "We had no indication that the information Shannon gave us was false. She portrayed herself as his wife."

Wow! She had no legal right to do that... scary! Don't they ask for legal papers for something so permanent?

Holy Shit Batman!  This is crazy to the extreme. At least 115 people were killed this weekend when tropical storm Agatha traveled through Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. Heavy rains and extreme winds caused massive mudslides that caused extreme devastation to all three of the Central American countries.

Guatemala was hit hardest, with at least 92 deaths, 54 people missing and 59 injured. In the northern part of Guatemala City, the extreme downpour of rain created a giant sinkhole that swallowed up a three-story building and a house, which you can see above.

Holy shit, look at those choppers!

Gary Busey and his girlfriend Steffanie Sampson are new parents. Here is their three month old baby, Luke.

That face is enough to scare the poor kid. Let's just hope Mr.Chicklet stays clean for the kids sake.... scary.

Doctors in Sichuan, China, found an eel up a 59-year-old man's rectum and the creature had eaten his bowels! The unnamed chef in China was passed out drunk and his friends played a prank on him which went horribly wrong.

WTF kind of sick "friends" are those?! What happened to the classic prank of just drawing dicks on the faces of passed out drinking buddies or posing them in precarious scenarios and taking photos? Crazy, crazy world today...
