I'm loving this weather now. Can it get any better? Absofreakinglutely, wait until Summer Fridays. When I was in Florida there was no such thing as summer Fridays. Ever since moving to New York, at most employers they have that beginning the Friday before Memorial Day there are "Summer Fridays". Which is where you either have the choice of working until 12pm/1pm every Friday or working normal hours every other Friday and having every other off. I pick option 1. That way I can actually enjoy my Fridays rather than me just using it to sleep off a hangover.Above are a few things I’m excited about this weekend. Another reason to trek to Brooklyn besides the incredible, yes it’s incredible, Murakami exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum of Art would be the Cherry Blossom exhibit at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. Nothing says spring is in the air like the Hanami Cherry Blossoms at BBG. The Hanami is the Japanese cultural tradition of viewing and cherishing each moment of the cherry blossom season and in New York City its the "rite of spring".
Of course the second would be to finally use my advance copy of the new Grand Theft Auto IV-Liberty City. Granted I have to whore it out to my boy who has a functioning Xbox whereas mine has been out of commission for a while and I refuse to buy another one (waiting for a free one, Poppa can you hear meeeee) but I figure it will be much safer that way so I won’t be all locked up at my place, leaving only to walk my dog for the next month. I'm looking forward to New York City as Liberty City, cameos from DJ Green Lantern and Karl Lagerfeld and all the salacious fun in-between.
Lastly, my good friend Dave has finally hit one of his childhood dreams, no not making out with Kelly Kapowsky but even better. Today marks the day on the Saturday Night Live production schedule where final production touches are made on the sketches. As we speak, he is he is producing 2 of his skits
(co-written by him) that will make it to the show tomorrow night, where Ashton Kutcher is hosting and Gnarls Barkley is the musical guest. I wish you sanity and all the laughs in the world buddy. So please tune in!
Here are your afternoon delight links with a taste of a (or two) of lunch mojitos.
* Guns N Roses fans can breathe a short sigh of possible relief. After costing over 13 million dollars GNR turns in Chinese Democracy to Geffen Records. Alex can get his life back now.
* Harmonix (who developed Guitar Hero and Rock Band), unveils their latest venture..a record label.
* Heroin use in Nascar??!! And still no one is getting tested. My friend gave me the most inappropriate Hillbilly Heroin joke…I just can’t repeat it.
* Are you in need of another social networking site? Well Playboy has the answer. Playboy has launched their own sexy social networking site just for college students or anyone with an email ending in edu.
*
The reign of Monday nights at Butter in New York City might soon be coming to end, if it isn’t because of the new Monday night at the Hudson Hotel than its going to be Johnny Utah's that will reign supreme (especially with the mechanical bull situation).
* Ok. So this Kobe video is making the rounds and thanks to TH, I have it figured out. While he is jumping high and covers the length of the car, one dead give away tells you why he’s not exactly jumping OVER the Aston Maston.....can you guess what it is? Kobe's shadow is on the side of the car!
UPDATE!!!!!!Thanks to The Big Lead for the clarification per Kobe.
