Sh$% Apple Fanatics Say

I saw this video from a Mashable tweet and had to repost it. As an Apple fangirl this rings true. Oh the ways we just justify the shortcomings of those we love! 




What I'm Watching: Happy Endings

Are you watching the ABC sitcom Happy Endings? If not, you should.  I know, since it was put on as a past mid-season replacement you're thinking it's not good.  Normally I would probably agree, but in this case that would be wrong.  The advertising from the studio would have you believe that the premise of this show is friends choosing sides after the engaged couple of the group breaks up.  It's really just a show about friends.  I hope ABC loses the whole wedding branding stuff.  Otherwise the show might fall into the same struggles Cougartown and How I Met Your Mother have.  These shows each have unique characters and it's fun to see the interactions between all.  Ok back to Happy Endings...

It's got a great cast and just a few episodes in it already knows it's voice.  The show follows 6 friends: Dave (Zachary Knighton) and Alex (Elisha Cuthbert) a former couple whose wedding day fiasco started off the series. Alex's sister, Jane (Eliza Coupe), and her husband, Brad (Damon Wayans Jr.). Max (Adam Pally), the friend who takes Dave in after Alex leaves him at the alter.  Lastly, Penny (Casey Wilson), the kind of kooky friend.

7 episodes in and I feel like I already know the characters.  Since it's shot single camera style there are flashback and cut outs (a la 30 Rock).  With each episode I'm laughing out loud and relating with the characters more.  How can you not love a show that shows us Jazz-Kwon-Do?

ABC Wednesday nights at 10 after Cougartown (which you should also be watching).

Here are a couple of clips to give you a feel of the show:

Penny finds out Jane is really good at self defense


Dave's friends can't tell him the truth






Google celebrates John Lennon


Today Google is celebrating what would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday (the actual day is Saturday) on their main search page. The image above is what you see and when you click on it an animated video plays Imagine. After the video search results about John appear. It's all very neat!
