Wonderful Inscribed White Enamel Mug

The Seaside Mug ~ White enamel mug hand-inscribed with the wonderful lyrics from this song:
'Stars shinning bright above you.
Night breezes seem to whisper I love you.
Birds singing in the sycamore tree.
Dream a little dream of me.'

Dead Celebrity Font | Helvistica

This made me laugh. Elvis would have loved having Helvetica, the 1957 sans-serif Swiss font turned into Helvistica.

Is Chris Isaak to Replace Simon Cowell on American Idol?



Is Chris Isaak American Idol’s New Simon Cowell?
Oh I do hope so. I love Chris Isaak. He has a great voice and he's funny too. He would be perfect and everyone would love him. Fingers crossed. Fellow crooner Harry Connick Jr. is also rumored to be in the running to replace Simon Cowell. Harry would be good but he and Ellen fight too much and that could be a big problem. I vote for Chris. A good way to describe Chris Isaak for those of you who don't know him, he's a cross between Elvis and Ricky Nelson.

Get to know him better. Watch and listen to 19 of his music videos here.

Celine Dion's $20m Water Park Mansion

First look at Celine Dion's $20m Florida waterpark mansion
"And if it proves not to be enough water for the singer, she can always take a short walk down to the beach, as the house overlooks the Atlantic. The lavish pool system uses 500,000 gallons of water (6.5million gallons are needed for the park each year). The water features includes two swimming pools, two water slides and a lazy river, which has a slow current to carry bathers around the pool." This is just plain crazy. What is she thinking? Another shrine to excess (and bad taste). What happens in Las Vegas should stay in Las Vegas.

Bon Jovi is coming home to celebrate their newest album, The Circle, performing for four nights at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. The band's fifth album release this decade is, in essence, meant to represent the group's career together - over 26 years of sold-out arena shows and numerous chart-topping hits. The album title mirrors the unity, strength, and commitment of the four members, and the desire to consistently produce original, uplifting rock 'n' roll." Contest rules and regulations.

Baby Mine, Lullaby For Dumbo The Elephant



This has to be the ultimate Mother's Day lullaby. I heard it today on NPR and it made me cry. I had completely forgotten about this song written for Dumbo the Elephant. Watch if you dare. It will definitely make you shed a tear or two. Dumbo 1941 Disney

Justin Bieber + Tina Fey SNL Rehearsal



I should have stayed up last night to watch this. Did you see Saturday Night Live? I must admit that I'd never even heard of Justin Bieber until I saw all the promos but now I love him too.

Eva Cassidy ~ Songbird [Video]




Eva Cassidy really does have the voice of an angel. I didn't discover her until years after her untimely death in 1999. She was featured on The Today Show after becoming the #1 artist in the UK achieving an overwhelming posthumous recognition. This was the first music CD I ever ordered online and it's still my favorite. Songbird by Eva Cassidy
