New Semester, New Beginnings

Now that the New Year’s Day
hangovers are a thing of the past,
it’s time to trade in the warm sofa
for cold, hard desks as the spring
semester approaches. If you are
wondering how you will possibly
make it through this semester after
barely
making it through the fall semester
you are in luck, because a new semester
brings new beginnings.

Sex Tape: Should I or Shouldn’t I?

23114238.jpgAh. The sex tape. Nothing says “we like it naughty” like catching the entire thing on video.

Not only is this racy recording super hot to watch with a glass of wine and a set of lacy lingerie (oh, and your co-star), but it is also a great teaching aid to improve the happenings between your sheets. Or on the table/back of a cab/in a public bathroom, if that’s more your thing.

Even more fun than watching the video is making it. Simply setting up the tri-pod at the foot of the bed ups the bedroom-hot-factor to Wasabi standards. And bringing the camera into bed for a couple of shots allows you, director/star, to create some extremely artistic shots.

Throw in some costumes and a teacher/student scenario and you have yourself a full blown night to remember, which, coincidentally, is made even easier by the fact that you have a souvenir to take home with you. (Note: Mac users have a leg up [saucy!] on the rest of us thanks to iMovie. It is so easy to use and adds a sense of professionalism to a genre that classically offers a more “Indie” feel.)

But homemade videos aren’t always pleasure and prrrrrrr. The biggest problem with a sex tape is the tape itself. Sure, producing a home video seems like a good idea at the time; “It will be fun,” you tell yourself. “We trust each other.” Oh, and you’ve always wondered what your hind quarters looked like when you were on top.

Erotasy Island: a Greek Geek Paradise

erotasy islandHas real life dating gotten you down? Is it just too hard to interact with other singles, or even your spouse, in reality?

Have you ever wished there was a “Massively Multi-Player Online Erotic Game” where you could pretend to be smoking hot and have lots of cyber sex?

Then let me introduce you to Erotasy Island.

Much more than just your average cleverly named role playing game, Erotasy Island dubs itself a “romantic virtual vacation spot” where players can amuse themselves with activities such as strolling though “a lush jungle garden” or dining “in an amazing volcano view restaurant” all without having to step foot outside their house.

For a monthly fee, users (sadly for all those love-deprived Mac users out there, it seems only PC computers are compatable) can “interact” with people all over the world, most likely creating and maintaining a scantily clad Greek-ish avatar and doing all the things online they only dream of doing in the real world (that is, if you dream of “dancing in a disco”…which most of us haven’t done since 1975).

Not being up on the latest role-playing information, I have no real idea how all of this virtual fantasy stuff works—but I can imagine, and my imaginings are very, very boring. Read More »

The iPhone Countdown: 4 days!

apple iphoneBeing an Apple fanatic and all, it’s essential that I mention this Friday marks the debut of Mac’s first ever iPhone. In typical Mac fashion, the iPhone is expected to break boundaries by bringing smart phones into the mainstream market.

What’s so freakin’ special about the iPhone, you ask?

Basically, it’s every piece of technology you’ve ever owned or dreamed of owning rolled into one.

It comes standard with every basic phone feature you can imagine (speaker phone, call waiting, call holding, conference calls, etc.); it has a wide array of impressive features acting as a camera (that is undoubtedly of a higher quality than my LG camera phone that solely produces green tinted pictures) and multimedia player (a la the iPod); and it has video capabilties, allowing users to view television programs, music videos, or movies on their hand held device.

Want to look good? It will cost you.

oops.jpgTimes have changed. Everybody and their mom knows that back in the day having a little extra junk in the truck, if people other than Sisqo still use that term, was grounds for medieval hottie status. Your ponderous figure was a sign of wealth and those skinny little serfs were a dime-a-dozen. Fast forward to USA 2007. The highest rates of obesity are now among the population groups with the highest poverty rates and the least education, while wealthier people tend to be slimmer, more toned, and probably sport better manicures.

What gives? Cheap food tends to be shitty food. Who among us hasn’t dropped way more than we’ve intended on a fresh fruit binge at Whole Foods? A cash strapped consumer can get a Big Mac Meal at McDonald’s for under five bucks, which also buys them well over 1,200 calories and crazy amounts of saturated fat. The real cost of the meal, in health problems, not to mention skinny jean stress, is well over your crisp fiver. Come on, we’ve all seen “Supersize Me”. A grilled chicken salad at Au Bon Pain will probably set you back seven or eight dollars, but it’s a small price to pay for fresh greens, lean protein, and not having your arteries instantly harden from inhaling a grim burger and grease soaked fries. Ew. Read More »
