Being merely a infant in blog years, I have yet to establish what exactly this blog is for. Perhaps for pictures. Perhaps for tirades. Or perhaps for my own entertainment. I know for sure that this blog will be VERY random!

Oh, the irony!

The Policeman for the Village People faces jail!

The singer who dressed as a policeman in the flamboyant late 1970s disco band "Village People" has been arrested after disappearing while drug and gun charges against him were pending, officials said on Monday.
Victor Willis, who co-wrote some of the band's hits such as "In the Navy" and "YMCA" has had a number of run-ins with the law since he left the group in 1980 and now faces as much as five years in prison, said Morley Pitt, assistant district attorney in San Mateo County south of San Francisco.
"It's just sad that his life has spiraled down to the point where in all likelihood he's going to go to prison," Pitt, who said he enjoys the song "YMCA", told Reuters. "You never like to see anybody go to prison, let alone somebody who is 54 years old."
Willis was arrested last year on charges of possessing a gun and cocaine, but he disappeared after agreeing to a plea deal that set a maximum sentence of 16 months behind bars, Pitt said.
He was re-arrested on Sunday and the singer is due in court on Tuesday.
Because he went missing, the San Francisco-area resident now faces as much as four years, four months in prison on those charges, as well as an additional eight months on possible new narcotics charges, Pitt said.
Easily remembered for their outlandish costumes including a construction worker, a policeman, a cowboy and a leather-clad biker, the Village People were one of the best known bands of the disco era. Their song "YMCA" is also a favorite gay anthem.

Back from Breck


Sorry for the hiatus, but I was off on spring break! I got to spend my week in one of the best ski areas in the United States, Breckenridge. I've been going to Breckenridge, Colorado ever since I was 7 and I just love it there! The people there are amazing and the skiing is unreal. This year was especially fun. I got to stay with the lovely Maura and Ken. They so wonderfully opened up their home to me, so I could stay for the week. Maura and Ken are great friends of the family and just made me feel right at home in Breck.

I really lucked out with the timing, because the snow the past week was just amazing for skiing. It was great spring conditions! I also got to celebrate Saint Patricks Day with Maura and her friends. We had a cupcake party were everyone made a dozen cupcakes, so we could then all swap and try them. Needless to say, everyone left with a sugar buzz...

It was a great week and now I am so utterly lazy to go back to school...I would rather be skiing!

Check out this cupcake blog!

Oh, I wish I was an Oscar Meyer weiner


While on my four and a half hour drive home I happened to pass by the Weiner mobile! At first I was behind it so it just looked like an oddly shaped car, but once I started to catch up to it, I realized what it actually was! It was definitely the highlight to that usually boring drive.

Just thought I would share that little adventure!

I know for a fact that Pixar purposly is releasing Cars 9 days before my Birthday as an early birthday present! Thanks you guys! ;D

Man, summer can't come soon enough!

Can you dig it?















Don't let the picture scare you away! This video is very special...yes...special is a wonderful way to describe it.

I must warn you, though! This video is quite addictive! It had me pressing replay over and over and over.

By the way, that is a guinea pig, just in case you couldn't tell by the extreme close up.

Cute Overload has t-shirts now! I just can't resist the cute...
