Serial Fiction – My Day With Vanessa Hudgens Originally Posted June 8, 2009:
Homegirl spent the better part of the morning vomiting and crying. She shrieked twenty-first-century Nancy Kerrigan style, “Why? Why Megan Fox? Why not me?” She was eventually persuaded to rise up off the bathroom floor and begin some semblance of a normal day, at least by “celebrity” standards.
The sniffles and intermittent weeping persisted throughout the day. If she had mustered up one tenth that commitment and affability on the craptastic character that made her famous maybe someone other than cheese hungry, beard following tweens would be able to stand her and she might’ve gotten a small role in a Summer Blockbuster or even a spot in a sleeper smash.
Instead she met the end of this day by frantically searching for the real Fergie on Twitter, determined to strike-up a friendship based on a what she hoped would be a shared hatred of Megan Fox – to no avail.
So for now she’ll simply have to be steadied by the comfort clawing with a death grip onto the coat tails of her virginal man friend brings – in this her brief stint of consciousness that she has less of a “career” than does a ribbon wearing cartoon kitten.

In today’s edition of Popular Politics – Say what you will about proposed healthcare reform by the current administration. All I can speak to is my personal experience in which at least one Barack-o-tunity is working and what’s going on in an area where there’s none.
We took advantage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act by installing energy efficient windows in our home. The local business that benefited from our purchase made no fewer than four follow-up calls to ensure our satisfaction with their products and services over the process of demo and installation.
On the other hand our relative has been in and out of hospitals, urgent care and emergency rooms for months now following a flawed emergency surgery. Said relative has had to demand test results, after being largely ignored or dismissed by multiple “care providers”, which revealed a physical malady that will require additional surgery to prevent another critical situation.
All the energy efficient windows are holding up well, our relative is awaiting the next available Operating Room appointment.
Global – As seen on GMA today, former first daughter Jenna Bush Hager steps back into her humanitarian shoes promoting the UNICEF initiative “Project Sprinkles“. For less than the price of your daily crack-attack at Starbucks ($3.50) UNICEF can provide a child with 100% their daily allowance of vitamins, critical for healthy physical and mental development, for one year.
While Sky 7 is undoubtedly a valuable asset to the Action 7 news team, as are reporter A.J. Smith and pilot Neal Lawson…Are daily fly-overs really necessary?
In their efforts to inform us of where our tax dollars and Barack-ortunity funds are being spent, this watch-dog in the sky segment plays out daily – whereby A.J. Smith is dispatched overhead to show you various holes in the ground, tops of buildings and strips of asphalt.
At an estimated 4 miles to the gallon and approximately 7 times the CO2 emissions of your standard vehicle is this coverage aligning with economic and environmental standards we should be striving for?
Applause for the watch-dogging, but thumbs down on daily flights for fancy aerials.
Hypermiling is the art of fuel conservation practices in any type of vehicle. Hypermiler extraordinaire Wayne Gerdes takes the practice to extremes to prove its effectiveness, achieving record breaking MPGs in regular ol’ cars, such as a purported 59 mpg in a Honda Accord.
To combat the “pain at the pump” (overused phrase of the lustrum) during these “tough economic times” (overused phrase of the decade) anyone behind the wheel can practice these ~simple steps to increase fuel economy:
AMC‘s original drama series Breaking Bad was nominated for five Emmy’s this morning including Best Actor – Bryan Cranston, Outstanding Supporting Actor/Drama – Aaron Paul and Outstanding Drama.
An official member of the independently owned and operated Cities On The Cheap websites available across the United States and Canada, Hanes brings real-time deals, ease in accessibility and interface to thrifty Albuquerqueans.
On this the eve of the “not-so-highly-anticipated” announcement that incumbent Paris Chavez will indeed run for a fourth term as Albuquerque’s Mayor, we have to ponder…
Since petitioning the Supreme Court to disregard term limits in January 2008, Chavez has been unofficially campaigning by dominating news coverage, garnering headlines, and literally plastering his name and face on city issues and objects on the city’s dime.
Well, the dime’s up on that tawdry peep-show. And now that he’s going “official” the currently nauseating level of Paris Chavez coverage will likely hit a fever pitch. Already averaging at least 3:1 mentions over the legitimately declared candidates for Mayor we’re in danger of being exposed to even more gratuitous mentions of every portly move he makes or makes-up.
Brace yourselves – this “I see you, but you can’t see me” toilet may well be the jumping off point for the sitting Mayor’s campaign (pun intended). Turn that glass around and it’ll be, “You see me, but I can’t see you!” Allll the way through to October.
Is this the kind of transparency Albuquerque really needs? Exercise your vote on October 6th.
Plagued pugilist, Johnny Tapia was sent back to the clink yesterday after committing an alleged parole infraction by traveling within the state, but out of the city to aid in the search and raise awareness about his missing relative without notifying his parole officer.
Tapia will remain in jail until at least July 30 and faces additional “habitual offender” charges that could result in a one year sentence. Tapia’s 29-year-old cousin Aurthur Chavez remains missing.
