He thrilled Chicago at Lolla, and he’s not done yet. Vance Joy announced on Facebook recently his new album Nation and Two will drop in February and he’s teasing it’s release with a new song ‘Like Gold’.
“Like Gold, follows the album’s include first official single “Lay It On Me,” which recently went platinum in his homeland and is the best-selling homegrown track in Australia right now.
Reports this week by Business Insider and AV Club revealed that Facebook, the champion of social media has 60 million fake users on their platform. The data was announced this week in profit announcement from Facebook, and these fakes which are specifically identified as “non-existent people or ones not associated with a real account” make up 2 -3 percent of the 2.07 billion users on the massive FB universe.
So it does really win that argument with my friend that those supermodels who keep sending me friend requests are not real people but robots from a troll farm? Maybe….
It’s admirable that Facebook is being honest about this issue, especially with wide spread reports of foreign groups using the social media platform to influence political campaigns and scammers using these accounts to steal money from unknowing people.
The real fake is the Todd that jerk from high school who totally made fun of you all the time, but now wants to click ‘like’ on your friday night party post. No, Todd we are not ‘friends’. I follow you on FB so I can see the gossip about Sarah and you.
Sorry vegetarians, you apparently don’t exist. At leas according to Charles Barkley.

Do you think, when they created the internet they ever thought that someday, someone would use it to recreate the theme song to a video game with animal sounds? …Probably.

Congratulations. We added a hour to our day and we just CARRY ON LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED.
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is not for the benefit of farmers. as most believe. It was intended to save energy, but the history of DST says that is debatable. In fact, what DST is…well, is a horrible concept.
The time change messes with our sleep cycles. Numbers show that heart attacks, strokes, and car accidents spike in the days after it happens. The one last argument you hear is that the economy is stimulated by the extra hours of daylight after work. Enter Bloomberg, who blows that theory out of the water:
“The study compared Los Angeles with Phoenix in the 30 days after the March and November time changes. Arizona is a natural test case since it’s one of the two states, along with Hawaii, that doesn’t do daylight saving. In the spring, according to the consumer transaction data, the additional hour of evening daylight in Los Angeles managed to slightly boost card spending per person, compared with that in Phoenix, although by less than 1 percent. That spending uptick is swamped by the negative impact of the November time change, which sees the darkened population of Los Angeles spend 3.5 percent less at local retailers.”
So why do we still do this? We have plenty of traditions in this country that are worth keeping. This…is not. — [eric]
BONUS EDIT: Check out this link to help further my cause. If we keep change to DST and then keep those hours the same year round, we don’t lose those late-night sunsets we all seem to love.
BONUS BONUS EDIT: You may not notice, but your body’s internal clock does. And it might be dangerous.
The Dodo blog may have turned us onto this, but this local Golden Retriever is too cute for human eyes. His name is Sporty and walks himself everywhere holding his own leash with his owner not far behind, as he greets everyone he meets. I had the pleasure of meeting the Sporty one last year on his birthday and yes, he was wearing a party hat.
Sporty even roughed it today in his own rain coat this weekend…ah, I can’t handle it!
Larry David with his writing work on the sitcom ‘Seinfeld’ and his much-acclaimed HBO show ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ has proven to be very funny while playing a picky, non-committal creative which is on display in his promos for tonight’s ‘Saturday Night Live’. He blabs with delightful DGAF attitude in the above promo reel with cast member Beck Bennett and musical guest Miley Cyrus.
This will be David’s third time hosting SNL, though he made guests appearances during the Presidential campaign season playing Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders.
This sketch which features FBI agents training on a shooting range features David playing the nonsensical Kevin Roberts. It’s feels a LOT like the hit sketch David S. Pumpkins, right?
If you loved that, you will crack up watching David and Keenan Thompson losing character during rehearsals for the sketch.
