The Format Free Download

The Format is celebrating the 1 year anniversary of their album “Dog Problems” by giving it away for free.

From wikipedia:

Their style can be considered a mixture of both indie and alternative, and is difficult to place in any one particular genre due to their use of various stylistic influences. Their diverse mix of sounds and exploration of different musical combinations set them apart from most indie bands.

My New Favorite Celebrity Blog

I admit it, I’m one of those people who obsess over celebrity news. (Paris is released from jail today!!!) With the huge growth in popularity of celebrity blogs, I’m guessing there are others out there who care what Lindsay Lohan ate for lunch too even if few of you will admit it :). Anyways, I just wanted to point you to a new celebrity blog that I’m totally digging. Introducing

What Would Tyler Durden Do

a blog focused on bringing you the latest gossip and news about rich and famous celebrities. And then making fun of them. Why? Because fuck them, that’s why.

Check it out, he’s hilarious!

Also, don’t forget Paris is on Larry King tomorrow. Dilbert has a funny post on Paris.

Tonight, Paris will appear on Larry King, presumably not acting dumb. If you think you can keep me from watching that train wreck, you are mistaken. I’m clearing the calendar. I can’t wait to watch Larry – who is more than 300 years old – ask Paris if she got any girl-on-girl action in the joint. They have the whole hour together and he’s going to run out of innocent questions soon after “Did you enjoy jail?”

• Nissan offers a $500 rebate to recent graduates;
• Ford offers a $500 rebate to recent graduates, or students in the last half-year of school.

Check out the link for more details

Also, congrats to all of the recent graduates out there!!

Summer To Do List

Today marks the longest day of the year. Yes, it’s the beginning of summer!!! Time for a summer to do list, what I want to accomplish before the summer is over!

1. Visit Joshua Tree National Park

2. Go on an 8+ mile hike (my longest one so far was 7.2 miles!)
3. Go to a BBQ

4. Go to the beach at least once. It’s really sad how little I visit the beach when it’s RIGHT THERE!
5. Launch my other blog(s), well at least one of them.
6. Movie hop at least once!
7. Put on my facial moisturizer + spf every single day (important to protect the skin now that the sun is out in full force!)

8. Cook something gourmet/impressive
9. Watch the first season of The Office
10. Watch Heroes (I stopped watching it when it conflicted with 24 so I need to finish that up)

11. Volunteer somewhere/somehow
12. Watch the sunrise/sunset

Any other suggestions?
