Watch this video: Jedward’s UNDER PRESSURE / ICE ICE BABY



Jedward Ice Ice Baby single

Apparently, Web Watch has been living under a rock since last November when teen sensation JEDWARD hit the scene in Britain’s THE X FACTOR program.

Sure, they may have lost the competition, but that hasn’t stopped JEDWARD (aka eighteen-year-old identical twins John Paul Henry Daniel Richard Grimes and Edward Peter Anthony Kevin Patrick Grimes) from moving forward and releasing their popular version of UNDER PRESSURE (ICE ICE BABY) as their first official release.

Oscar Watch 2010: the nominated animated short LOGORAMA is AWESOME


Logos We Love

Have you heard about the Oscar-nominated animated short LOGORAMA?   It’s about 15-minutes long, and takes place in a world where everything – and we do mean EVERYTHING – is a logo.

The police, for example, are Bibendum (you may know Bibendum as “The Michelin Tire Guy”).

The zoo contains the Democratic Party elephant and Izod alligator logos.

Generic passers-by are the AOL guy and the BIC pen people.  If you know of a company that has a vehicle as their logo, you can be sure that it will be seen driving around this Logo city. 

The plot is your basic cop-versus-bad guy story, with NSFW language that seems to have been pulled from a Tarintino movie.  But the creativity that went into creating a world made entirely of corporate logos is astounding.

Web Watch picked Logorama to win this category in our annual Oscars movie pool, without having even seen the film.  Now that we have watched it, we’re not changing our selection at all. 

Enjoy!

The New Fashion Trend: Bedazzling Your Hoo-Ha (aka “Vajazzle” and “Vagacial”)



Temporary Body Jewelry Tattoos

Web Watch thinks that some things are perfectly fine the way they are, but apparently some women think that some body parts are always in need of a little, well, something “extra”. 

And we’re not talking about a simple bikini wax or the more complicated and deadly Brazilian wax (yes, a Brazilian wax can kill you, remember?).

If you’re one of those women who think that their special place needs a little special something, then Web Watch would like to point you in the proper direction to get that taken care of.

First, let us introduce you to THE ART OF VAJAZZLING (eg VAJAZZLING: from the root word “vajazzle”, meaning “to bedazzle your vag”. As used in a sentence – “I can’t believe you got vajazzled!”)

Top 15 Houseplants Every Household Should Have. (It’s SCIENCE!)


Boston Fern

If you don’t have a lot of houseplants around your home, you should.

We already know that plants are good for the environment, smell nice, and look pretty while sitting on the plant rack in the corner of your kitchen.

But now scientists have determined – scientifically, of course – which are the absolute BEST HOUSEPLANTS TO HAVE IN YOUR HOME

Why? Because plants will help clean the air in your house more efficiently and naturally than anything else you can find.  The folks at NASA even determined that you should have one plant for every 100 square feet of living space in your house.

So what are some of the 15 plants that you should run out to the store to buy right now?

Today’s Fun Fact: Smoking Leads to Saggy Boobs (and 14 other tidbits)



Smoking Chick

If you are a woman and you smoke, Web Watch would like to inform you that you are doing your body more harm than good.

A study in 2007 determined that there were THREE CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SAGGING BREASTS, and not one of those factors involved breastfeeding.  The study determined that the three factors were:

Flash Fun: an Alice in Wonderland-based audio/mouse-control game



Alice in Wonderland audio book

By now, Web Watch is sure that you’ve seen the trailers for Johnny Depp and Tim Burton’s new Disney film ALICE IN WONDERLAND.

The fact that a film is pending to be released hasn’t stopped game developers from not releasing games that are based on Lewis Carroll’s classic. 

Take RECORD TRIPPING, for example – aside from being based on the familar tale of Alice chasing the White Rabbit around Wonderland and encountering the Mad Hatter and other interesting characters, it’s the game mechanics that really set RECORD TRIPPING apart from other online games.

FOOD ALERT! Girl Scout cookie Thin Mints are still smaller, so try this recipe



Girl Scout Cookie Thin Mint

It really shouldn’t bother Web Watch as much as it does.

After all, eating too many cookies of any type isn’t good for you.  Heck, even Cookie Monster says that “Cookies are a Sometimes Food

But as the Chicago Sun-Times and others pointed out last year, Girl Scout cookies were getting a bit smaller, perhaps due to the recession.   There’s even a FACEBOOK page devoted to fans who want to get their 8 cookies back in the box.

But now an entire whole year has passed since, and Web Watch dutifully went to the local grocery store to buy our annual allottment of Thin Mints, Tagalongs, and Samoas from the Girl Scouts (and their parents) trying to sell off their excess inventory*.

And Web Watch can confirm that this year’s Thin Mints Economic Indicator shows that the economy is still in the gutter as the 2010 box looks to be the same as the 2009 box.  That is, in 2010 we’re still looking at a smaller box and fewer cookies.
