I particularly recommend the Betty White/Snickers ad.
A Quick Thanks
Thanks to everyone who voted for my friend Brian’s “Casket” ad for Doritos. It aired during the Superbowl last night but, alas, did not win the million.

Pop-Culture Tattoos
Pop Candy showcases fans’ pop-culture ink. Friend of Freakgirl.com Jill (aka The Nerdy Bird) is featured in the piece — and her tattoo is the coolest one, IMO.

“Everybody Hurts” Charity Single
This charity single for Haiti, a remake of REM’s “Everybody Hurts,” is just depressing as hell. Why anyone would want to listen to this voluntarily is beyond me. It’s the feel-good song of the year! Even Robbie can’t save it. Continued…

LOST Cupcakes
Wishing I had time today to cruise over to Rutherford and pick up some of these. If you’ve never been to Sweet Avenue, you should. Their cupcakes are DELISH, and vegan to boot! I really need to do some baking. Maybe this weekend…
