Now I’ll admit she’s no Getz, Mulligan, Desmond or Coltrane but Mindi Abair ain’t bad. And she’s purty too.
Mindi Abair – Come as You Are
I guess we shouldn’t be surprised since the following article regards a Super Bowl ad and the NFL and broadcasters are overly sensitive since the infamous clothing malfunction a few years ago. But anyway, did you know you can’t use the word beaver when referring to the dam building rodents? I did not either. I was perusing some stuff on the Godaddy site while on hold and saw this article by Bob Parsons, the Godaddy CEO. And if you want to hear some good music while on hold call Godaddy. They also give you a choice of music or no. Plus all the CSRs speak good ol’ Uhmuricin Ainglish with no accent. Sorry Claudia in Toronto, eh?
But here’s the good part. Click here for the full article.
Super Bowl Ad rejected! Fox: “Beaver” is verboten! Hot candids of Danica & Candice.
When I was a kid in the late fifties, I remember watching Barbara Billingsley say to Hugh Beaumont “Ward, don’t you think you’ve been too hard on the Beaver?” I’m talking – of course – about the long-running hit TV show “Leave it to Beaver” starring Jerry Mathers as a little boy nicknamed “Beaver.”
Today with our knotty “need to be politically correct” environment, that show – as innocent and innocuous as it was – might need a different name.
Just don’t say “beaver.”
Last week, FOX network rejected Go Daddy’s Super Bowl ad because an actor referred to a beaver – a replica beaver that was, in fact, being portrayed – as a “beaver.” We were told that under no circumstance could we use that word, and if we didn’t say the word “beaver,” the ad would be approved.
He goes on to discuss the young ladies who are in the commercial and their take on it. One of them is Danica Patrik. If more drivers looked like her, I might watch me some NASCAR.

She scats like the Satchmo on this Christmas tune you’ll all recognize.
This is gonna be a gooder. I’m thinkin’ anyway. But I’m gonna miss Sigourney, come on. Who can ever forget her in her skivvies getting in the life boat in the first Alien. I mean, that was a real artistic statement regarding Ellen Ripley’s current predicament in the story, wasn’t it?

And now comes Aliens vs Predator Requiem. Click here for a taste.

Can’t wait to see these bad boys gettin’ it on.

Have you watched this Dr. Who spin off? I like the hell out of it. Here’s what they say about it on the BBC site:
“Torchwood will be a dark, clever, wild, sexy, British crime/sci-fi paranoid thriller cop show with a sense of humour – the X Files meets This Life,” says Russell T Davies.
“It’s a renegade bunch of investigators charged by the British government to find alien technology that has fallen to Earth,” BBC Three controller Stuart Murphy told The Independent.
The show will be set in Cardiff, and will be 13 45-minute episodes, transmitting between series of Doctor Who. Confirmed writers include Sapphire and Steel creator PJ Hammond.
And BBCA sold it to HDNet so I gets to see it in Hi Def. And it’s good. Here’s a clip I made from a recent episode. Toshiko, a member of Torchwood has been given an alien pendant that allows her to read other peoples thoughts. And it is driving her crazy. Not really crazy but its very unsettling to her.
I know some folks get awful nervous under these conditions but WTF? Is this a case of more beauty than brain? But then, she is a blonde.
Maybe it’s morbid curosity since I’m retired and very rarely have to venture out before 9:30 or 10:00 am. Maybe I keep hoping I’ll see a flying car taking off on a feeder road on one of Houston’s freeways. Maybe I’m hoping to see a hero pull a kid from a burning school bus. Or maybe it’s something else.
Erica Chevillar says she found it tough to make ends meet living in South Florida on a $33,000 first year teacher’s salary, so she quietly posed in skimpy swimwear to earn extra money.
Little did she know that students from West Boca Raton High School, where she teaches 10th grade world history, would soon discover the photos of a familiar model named “Erica Lee” on the USA National Bikini Team Web site.
Break.com has more of her photos, all safe for work (well, no nudity, at least).
