J5

OMG...

The original Jackson 5 are reuniting for a tour and may even be working on new stuff?!?!?!?

I'm soooooooooooooo excited.


Update: Mikey J says it ain't so. Nevermind! Guess we won't be seeing those amazing outfits again.



I want my MTVM











Have you heard? MTV launched this new site called MTV Music... hmm I thought that's what the 'M' in MTV stood for. Of course we all know what MTV has turned into these days sadly and that extra M in MTVM is far from redundant (but I do luv watching me sum Hills), but it's cool to have a place to access pretty much every MTV music video ever. Oh, wait... don't we have YouTube for that? Still, I think this is pretty cool. I looks a lot nicer than u2b, and is a lot easier to find your video fix. PLUS you can watch Pop Up Videos. Remember that???? Good 4 classique vids like Blondie's "Rapture" in Pop Up Video form...




Or how bout a little full version of THRILLER for the halloween spirit!!!!! oooooooooh!

Get to Know Your NPSH: Claire



What is your astrological sign? Leo


What do you look forward to in the next 3 months?
30 Rock starts Thursday!!! (I do not approve of this 'watch it early online' shenanigans)

If you could do absolutely anything today, what would it be?
Clean my room using magic.

What book are you reading?
Atonement, and when that makes me sad I switch to Chuck Klosterman.

What animal would you be if you were an animal?
This seems like a question that someone else should answer for you, unless it's actually a question of what animal you would WANT to be, and then I just don't know. But I would probably be a bunny.

Right-handed or Left-handed?
Righty tighty

Are you missing someone?
YES

What are you craving to have right now?
the outdoors. And these products



Why do you think most guys date you?
Well I would say that most guys don’t date me, because that would be a LOOOOOOOOOT of guys.

What is your favorite piece of clothing you own?
It was my jacket until it was STOLEN. Now maybe my Cinderella dress or my Glo jeans (Not by J Lo, her clothing brand is not called Glo, that was just her first FRAGRENCE. And I think it might even have been spelled correctly)

Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity? If so, Who?
Scarlett Jo m0mma

What state do you think Sufjian will compose an album for next?
There was a rumor a while ago that it would be Oregon. I’m pretty sure that turned out to be not true at all, but I would like that because I am fond of Oregon.

What was the last thing you enjoyed watching on TV?
SNL ThUrSdAy WeEkEnD uPdAtE? I can't remember.

What is the number one trait you like in a guy?
A prehensile tail. Just kidding! Unless of course the guy in question is a prehensile-tailed porcupine, because then it would be at a serious disadvantage without one.

Coffee or tea?
Coffee

What in the world do you least desire?
Right now, scrambled eggs.

NOTORIOUS

I'm so ridiculously excited for this movie to come out. I've been listening to Ready to Die for the past few days non stop (although, to be honest, a lot of it was just Juicy on repeat).



I think i might have to dress up as Puff for the Premier...



i've been listening to no doubt a lot lately.

IN-DEPTH NPSH FAN PROFILE #1 : KRISTEN

R U VOTING 4 JOE THE PLUMBER OR JOEBAMA? That's a question a lot of Floridans have to ask themselves, but not Kristen. Cause she's 17. We selected her randomly for the first installment of IN-DEPTH NPSH FAN PROFILE because Florida is the opposite corner of the lower 48 from Seattle. Here is a nice picture of NPSH, Kristen, and all of her pets.


NP Who are you / what should we know about you?
K I'm Kristen, I'm 17 and I'm from Orlando, Floridaaa!

NP Why do you like / kinda like NPSH?
K Hm, the reason I like NPSH is their music is just so great, so danceable, I love it. All their songs have very catchy beats with lyrics that'll just be stuck in your head for days.

NP What else do you like / kinda like?
K As in music? Oldies, all the oldies, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Johnny Cash. But if you're not talking about music, then I like sushi... I love sushi.

NP Do you have any pets?
K Yeah, 3 dogs, Tye, Peanut, & Mischa. 2 guinea pigs, Taco & Fogell. A bird, Lady Sovereign, and a hedgehog, Juno.

NP Is NPSH a good influence on your peers / parents?
K For sureee. My mom actually just became a fan of NPSH, I made her listen to some of the songs in the car and now she's asking me to put the songs on her ipod.

NP What does the line "we gonna get hologram love machine turtlenecks and slow-motion tag team" mean to you?
K Hmmmm. I really don't know, haha sorry.

NP Do you think our civilization is declining / is NPSH too late?
K Yes and no.

NP Can you make any anagrams with "natalie portman's shaved head," using all the letters?
K Oh man, um. "a salamander hash potted vein" anddd "valiant sharp nosed meathead". Yess.

NP What books / websites do you think NPSH should read?
K Books? Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs: A Low Culture Manifesto by Chuck Klosterman, def.

NP Thank you for answering our questions. Do you have any questions for NPSH?
K Why are you guys just so awesome?
NPSH Because of amaaaazing fans like youu!!!
K How would you describe your music to someone who's never heard you play?
NPSH 1000 monster trucks of love flying in unison over a pit of neon electric cobras
K If you were born the opposite sex, what would you want your name to be?
NPSH Luke: Summer, David: Anna, Shaun: Marissa, Claire: Seth, Liam: Kiki

He asks a McDonald's employee if she likes his wheels. She doesn't understand. Mr. 763 celebrates all while sharing his joy with YouTube.

SUSHI!!!!

Shaun and I just went to this amaaaaazing sushi place for their lunch special earlier today. For those of you in Seattle, or who plan on coming here, you should most definitely go. It was like $1 for a piece of sushi, or $1 for six rolls!!!!! it was crazy!!!!


It's called Kozue Japanese Restaurant and it's in Wallingford, their lunch special is 11:30-2 mon-fri and 12-3 on sat. Now GO! Eat!

This vid is so mezmirizing!



Damn, Beyonce is coming back with the fire! This must have been really hard to shoot. And they're dancing so fierce! But why couldn't those other two dancing ladies be Kelly and Michelle? Did you rly have to break up Destiny's Child, Beyonce? I guess the others couldn't keep up, seeing as Beyonce is a cyborg now (see end of video).

This is a funnee pic of us at the weez by the awesome Chona Kasinger.



P.S. Where are the girls that we met who helped us look up skunks on the iPhone? Identify yourselves. We were debating weather skunks have one or two stripes because we want to bleach Liam's hair like an authentic skunk, cool-style. So I totally think skunks have two stripes:





They look kinda like Rufio from Hook.

Skunks are actually pretty cute.
