I personally have never shot a gun or even owned one but recently I watched Superbad and Officer Michaels cleared up any questions I might have had about it when he told the young Fogell that "It's like having two cocks. If one of your cocks could kill someone.
" Not that that explanation gives me a very clear picture because I am a female I get the just. Officer Michaels was my favorite character in that movie played by none other than Seth Rogen. I have been a Seth Rogen fan for several years ever since my father brought home the short lived but wonderful series Freaks and Geeks. He played my favorite character Ken Miller and sported mutton chops. Although I have not seen all of his work everything I have seen provides incredible joy. I was surprised to see him make an appearance in Anchorman. In case you missed him he was the cameraman at the cat fashion show. It was also wonderful to hear him lending his voice to Mantis in Kung Fu Panda, another quality movie. His starring role in Knocked Up is another of my favorites. There are so many great Seth Rogen works that I could go on for much longer but there is simply not enough time. I am just thankful that Judd Apatow kept working with many actors from Freaks and Geeks and made them, mainly Mr. Rogen, the celebrities they are today.

In the recent years of Saturday Night Live, I have not been quite as interested in the sketches. Let's just say they were getting a bit trite and tiresome...it had all been done before. That is until one day I discover the new prodigy of SNL-Andy Samberg. The first time I saw him manifest his true genious was on December 17, 2005, when he teamed up with partner Chris Parnell in Lazy Sunday, a rap about the pairs escapades on a Sunday afternoon to see the Chroni-(what?)-cles of Narnia. That was enough to restore a bit of faith in SNL. And, it was fortified indeed when Samberg again created an Emmy-winning R&B classic with Justin Timberlake, Dick In A Box. It was just in time for the holidays, and it was discussed many times over at the family Christmas party, even by my aunts in their mid-60s and my straight-laced cousin. Then in 2007 my true love for him and his work was in full bloom when I saw Hot Rod in 2007. He is absolutely brilliant in tht movie and it is one of my favourites! I recommend it to all lovers of silly and yet sometimes subtle fun.Pictured above is a picture of Andy Samberg doing a great impression of the comic strip character Cathy! If for any reason you've lost hope in SNL, or you've never even watched (?!?) I suggest starting up again for the pure sake of watching Andy Samberg in all of his comic glory!-K
Whats cute? And adorable? And so cute? And so adorable? Cats of course! They say there are cat people and there are dog people. I would say that this is sort of true because I happen to be a cat addict while not so fond of dogs. I prefer dogs who do not bark, are very small and are fluffy. Pretty much a cat. Only once so far in my short life have I had a bad cat experience. I was wearing a favorite t-shirt of mine and the cat put a small hole it in. I was sad but somehow I managed to keep my love of the particular cat going strong. My favorite famous cat would have to be the spaghetti cat. The spaghetti cat was used to censor a segment on The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet that no one watches. After that The Soup host, Joel McHale, had a blast with spaghetti cat. Here is the clip in case you have not seen it yet. And in case you are curious about the mystery of the cat here is a video to clear up your questions. There is also a wonderful article on wikihow about how to hug a cat. Not that some of us need any help but it is useful for those who have no cat hugging talents. Cats are also adorable when they flush toilets as seen in this youtube gem. Cats make great presents for girls who write blogs too!

Everyone loves parties, and most people love surprises, so it's no wonder that America's pastime is having surprise parties! Well that's not America's pastime at all but it should be because it's one of the most fun activities in the whole wide world. Some good ingredients for a surprise party are lots of people, good music, presents, food, a campfire....similar ingredients to throwing a regular party but then you add someone to surprise! It's especially fun when the suprisee is really clueless, no matter how many times someone almost spilt the beans. Recently, I threw a surprise party when my best friend "Schmarah" moved to "Schmolorado" and even though the co-hosts mom mentioned mailing invitations several times in front of Schmarah, she didn't catch on. In fact, even when we were pushing her into a crowd of 25 people yelling "Surprise!" she still didnt catch on. It also helps if the Surprisee may be turning 16 but is 7 at heart, like in the instance of the party my friend "Shiyad" threw for his girlfriend "Zelby."Suprise parties are also great for having parties and not being responsible for dealing with the people who are hurt because they didn't get invited; afterall, the guest list IS for someone else and you could jsut say THEY wouldn't want you there!If you've never been to or thrown a surprise party yourself, I highly suggest you volunteer to have one the next friend having a birthday. If you don't have friends you can throw one for your cat.-K
Back in middles school a popular pastime was passing notes. Recently I have returned to this tradition and found myself happier than I have ever been. Passing notes has been replaced by texting in class but I find it is more rewarding to sneak notes around. Notes are better than texts because 1. you can draw pictures on them and 2. you can fold them. Need more reasons? It's like getting a letter! Which is awesome! Also when you write a note you don't have to mess with t9 which currently has made up words no one would use ever instead o
f common ones on my phone. Being secretive is the most important thing about passing notes, especially if they are scandalous. In an unmentioned class I sit in the front of the room while the person I wish to communicate with (lets just called her "Sydney") is sitting in the back. There is a tissue box in front of my desk so "Sydney" comes up to the front of the room and takes a tissue and slips me a note. Then she blows her nose and sits down. I reply to the note then I take a tissue and walk to the back of the room to the trash can. "Sydney" is convieniently seating right near it so no one has any idea what we are up to. Execpt for anyone who isn't blind. Passing notes brings me back to the day when we listened to cassette tapes and wore cut off t-shirts. Oh the memories.

Unicorns! HotWheels! Pokemon! Ed Hardy! Dinosaurs! So many choices, but what to choose? I guess we'll have to settle for....all of them!Temporary tattoos simply have to be the greatest invention in the world. Put them anywhere, and make a statement to the world! But don't worry, they come off so in a week or so you can make another statement! Maybe one week you're feeling like a pretty princess so you put a nice pink flower on your face, but then the next week you're feeling like a NASCAR racer so you put some flames on your bicep....the options are limitless! Not only that, but they're easy to apply (you can follow these simple instructions on wikiHow) It has become clear to me over the years that your temporary tattoo collection directly correlates to your social status as well, so if you wanna be the coolest kid on the block you'll start saving up!Neat idea: Advertising! If you run a business and you feel like getting it out to the world, what better way to do it then by designing and printing your own temporary tattoos and distrubuting them at conventions? Better than a stupid pen or coffee mug...

Breakfast is often skipped by teenagers despite being the most important meal. Every single day for as long as I can remember I have eaten cereal for breakfast, except on some weekends when I have pancakes or just forget. Cereal is like my coffee. People know not to mess with me until I have had my cereal. The greatest cereal ever is Whole Grain Chocolatey-filled Cereal Bites from Trader Joe's. I eat them plain and with milk. The chocolate explosion in the middle makes it so special. I also enjoy lucky charms but I only get them when I am sick. Last time I got them my mom ended up eating them all because I wasn't hungry ever. Now I really want some Lucky Charms. But really cereal is the greatest food. There are many other uses for it besides eating too! When someone comes to your door try pouring a box of fruit loops on them. Or make a cheerio necklace! I can say from personal experiance that they are useful, stylish, and easy to make! Cereal is also easy to cast spells on. When I need to practice any spell I just pull out a box of cereal so I make sure I get it right before using it on humans. Safety first. Cereal on TV: In Gilmore Girls, Lorelai eats rice crispies and adds marshmallows. It is one of the most delcious cereal recipies.-A
