You have no sense of humor if you don't pee in your pants just a little after checking out this blog...
File this under "What Not To Do for Your Wedding Cake": www.cakewrecks.blogspot.com
Key words: disturbing, gross, what's wrong with people, who would eat that, WTF, holy sh**, OMG, and that's some funny sh**.
Many thanks to Maggie whose efforts to brighten my day by bringing me out of my own scary head literally brought tears of laughter to my eyes.
Maggie, I'm so sad I couldn't be at your wedding in June to see you cut your own cake, but something tells me that yours probably wouldn't qualify for this website. And here's to our own naughty submission - hee hee hee. No one tell Deuce or the boys!
Today's cake post was especially crack-up-worthy.

I'm an iTunes STAR!!
Well, sort of...
A few weeks ago, I was interviewed for a podcast about Young Democrats Abroad Japan by Terri MacMillan, former Chair of Democrats Abroad Japan. She asked me about why I'm a Democrat, how the heck I got involved in DAJ, and what to do about those pesky young voters.
Check it out on iTunes (search for 'Democrats Abroad Japan') or the DAJ Podcast website. Hope you like it - I actually managed to not completely cringe while I was listening to it. Aghhhhhhh!!!
p.s. If you didn't know about it already, please check out the Facebook group I started called "Young Democrats Abroad International."

Don't bug me, I'm DANCIN!
As I am sure you are ALL aware and as excited about as I am, the 2008 season of the Fox TV show, "So You Think You Can Dance" is well under way, with this past week being the first of the top 20 competition. And, of course, thanks to the audition shows and my (un?)healthy, long-standing (I was there from the beginning!) addiction to the show, I've already got a couple favorite dancers and, certainly, a favorite dance of the week.
Fave Dancers:
The part where he comes backwards up off the floor is ridiculous - how does he do that? I love this dance. It reminds me of the stuff Shane Sparks does.
Fave Dancers:
- Twitch Boss - First of all, his name is frickin' awesome. Second of all, his dancing is even cooler than his name.
- Will - Don't know his last name, but his solo this week blew me away and he's doing his mentor, Debbie Allen, proud.
- Chelsea - Don't know her last name (there are two Chelseas, too, further complicating situation), but she partners with Cris. She has great technique, great stage presence, and legs that are like a mile long, so, of course, I hate her and want to be her at the same time.
- Kherrington Payne - No, this isn't the guy from Grease 2 (that's Michael Carrington). This is the blond chick who partners with Twitch and is just really fun to watch.

The Ass Pat NOT Felt Around the World
With all the hoopla about Barack and Michelle's "fist bump," one WAAAAAAY more freaky (in a good way) thing that was missed was the "football player ass pat" that Barack gave her after the "fist bump." Yeah, I know, you're all like, "What?!?!" But, for real, yo! Check out the video again and watch as she walks away - he gives her a nice little ass-tastic love pat on her way out! The West Wing is gonna be HOT!
Right around the 0:48 second mark, you can see the ass pat the best.
