Shutter Shades.

So ok they are cool. But wouldn't be anywhere famous if it wasn't for Kanye West.

But they aren't very functional are they ? Im all for things that look trendy etc.

But in all honesty they should come with a health warning.

Warning may cause User to trip unexpectedly
Doesn't protect against objects in the air. ( such as dust, bugs.)
May cause nausea in places that uses flashing lights ( discotec.)
Does not protect from the sun. This includes both Eyes can skin.

It's not a good look, having zebra type burns near you eyes.

I don't see why they haven't got clear glass in them anyway.

Well I do see people walking down the street with them.. How?
They are very hard to see where you are walking.

May be if you are trying to stay still.. looking cool. Maybe a one two step dance move. They are fine.

What do you care anyway. They look cool =)

"Thought Shower" (rant)

Officials have now changed the term "brain storming" which is commonly used in offices, as "to brief on your ideas." to "thought shower"

Why?

Officials are now claiming that it is offensive to those for suffer from fits. The association found in this is that ,fits can become quite violent (like a storm) and come and go ( like a storm) what causes this is activity in the brain. And there we have "brain storming" .So ok its a long run to get to that point of why it may be offensive.

The fact is that no one would find it offensive. And if they do. I think they are being a little sensitive. Even a spokesman from the association that deals with fits etc. Agrees that no one would find it offensive when being used within a office.

It basically political correctness gone too far.

We are living in a world now we are supposedly have free speech. But in this day and age. When can we really say what we mean without it either offending someone or creating some kind of uproar.


I know that banning the word Brainstorming is only a small thing. But its what underlays it, thats important. That people have to be so careful of what they say, that freedom of speech can never really exist. It can only be an illusion.

Don't these officials have anything else better to do that pick at silly little issues. Maybe the fact that our economy seems to be on the fall, while inflation rises. Living cost keeps increasing, while minimum wage still remains the same.

but maybe thats an issue for a different post ..

Amy Winehouse.. Update.

Well the rumors that Amy as contracted Tb as came to light today. She has not got TB. She has a serous lung condition, from a result of smoking (with some other things as well).

Amy is responding well to the medication, and she will get better.. in time. But from a result she can not smoke.. at all. Otherwise it will get worse and will only result her in falling even sicker.

According to her dad, Amy is trying hard to give up. In his words " covered herself in Nicotine patches", that she understands the dangers.

But doctors have now said that she is well enough to do gigs. If she wants to. Maybe it would be a good idea to get some good well deserved rest.. and maybe some fresh air wouldn't go a miss.

Maybe this is what will make her turn her lifestyle around. But we will have to wait to see

The Curse of Kanye West

Ohh and the curse of Kanye West strikes again. Now Kanye west as done a handful for great songs some on his own some with great artist, some with struggling artist.

Now Kanye knows how to make a song good. Him.

But the curse is he raps on the artist song. Yay the song is a hit. But what happens after?

Well artist brings out there next single.. No kanye West rapping on it.. Oh it's a flop.

Same thing happens with Timberland, except in a few cases the artist may be able to make a few singles that do ok. Before dissapearing into the music black hole. Maybe to appear in a few years time.

Amy WineHouse

Now We have all heard that recently that Amy hasn't been well. After being rushed into hospital after collapsing at her home in camden, It wasn't quite clear what was wrong. It is now a possabillity that she may have TB. This is due to her partying ways. By taking the drugs, she has lowered her immune system which makes her more likely to get TB.

Amy is such a talented artist and songwriter and is a shame that her downfall as became entertainment in it self.

But Amy success comes from her the heartache and the bad times. Listen to her lyrics and they are all about sad times, heartache. SO where would she be if her life wasn't how it is. Would she be able to have the feeling in her songs, without ever expreinced it first hand. Personally I don't think she would be where she is today and I mean in "star status". She would still be singing and dancing in small productions, just getting by.

But of course we all know that this life style is serverly affecting her health and she will soon become victim to it.

Her heartach and fame is her downfall, But without it she is nothing. It is a shame that such good talent, will come and go so quickly.

Hopefully this will be a wake up call to her so she can stick around.
