There's this guy... and he was in this band... this week he played at this record store... We don't know too much about him, his music, or the "buzz" around him but people were sitting in line for days to check out his gig at the record shop so we figure they'd appreciate this video. However, at about 2:52 into the video, does it appear to you that in the bottom of the screen...

People are freaking out by a law that requires that you be hands-free if you use a cell phone in your car. The law goes in effect July 1, 2008 but the LA Daily News is reporting that locals are thinking that the law will kick in this weekend, so they are rushing to the phone stores to get their blue tooth accessories. Officials have blamed an e-mail hoax for helping to spread the...

Apparently the iPhone that Apple sent to LAist to review got lost in the mail, but the NY Times got theirs and did a pretty cheesy video that shows off the good and bad parts about the coolest new phone since... well... ever. Actually LAist wasn't supposed to get a free phone, but we can dream can't we? Anyways - yes it's sad and weird that Apple has set it up so that you...

The sultry, seductive, politically incorrect, and (yes, fellas) single, Moxie will have me as her guest on her Internet show today at 5pm. Moxie is a conservative LA blogger who just bought a Mac. Does that mean that the MSM's insidious control of the media is working on her? Probably. We plan to talk about The Michael Moore Diet, Paris Hilton lie about never doing drugs, and Presidential hopeful Ron Paul. Click here to...

Paris Hilton went on Larry King last night. It was her first tee vee interview after spending twentysomething days in the slammer. Before the interview Paris said that jail had changed her for the better. During the interview she told Larry that she had never done drugs. King: "Ever taken drugs?" Hilton: "No." Unfortunately Paris must had forgotten about all of those videos that came out last year on the ParisExposed.com website that showed...

Once again Michael Moore is getting the last laugh. Claim that his films aren't documentaries, allege that his facts are wrong, complain that he's fat, etc., bro is getting a better deal on his latest work, SiCKO, than any other star in Hollywood - 50% of the gross. After theater owners have taken their cut, in other words, "Sicko's" profits will be split in half between Moore and Harvey and Bob Weinstein, whose Weinstein...
