CHASE'S COMMENTARY CORNER

Okay, folks, I am just thinking and collecting my thoughts this morning and thought I would share with you. Plus I like the rhyming in the title of the post. Everything sounds better with "corner" put in it. No. Wait a second, now I sound like Tiger Woods.....

Kangaroo pouches amaze me. AMAZE me. It is like a "womb with a view"! How would you like it if your mother strapped your room to her stomach and hopped around with it. I think I would have always picked up my dirty socks. So do Kangaroos always have a C-section when they give birth? Do the kanga-babies birth out of the pouch? Do I want to know?

I was at Walmart earlier tonight and was browsing in the movie department. I saw that the movie "Cocoon" was recently released on blu-ray. We all remember that one, don't we? It is a movie from the late 80's about old people that are visited by aliens and a swimming pool is involved or something. I don't quite remember. When I saw that this had been released on hi-def blu-ray, I thought, "That movie is going to show more wrinkles and folds and creases than oragami. Poor Wilford Brimley." If you don't know who he is, google him. That movie is just littered with geriatrics....

It has been reported that Dame Elizabeth Taylor is ENGAGED! ENGAGED! (She has supposedly denied reports on her twitter. Twitter?! What a hip ol' granny! She is in her 70's, and tweets!) That woman has been married 8 times! Twice to the same man! She has famously told Oprah, Barbra Walters, Entertainment Tonight, and anyone who will listen, that she will NEVER marry again. (A little bit ago, I posted some videos of her anti-marriage rants, and even a howl! Just go back a few pages!) The Dame keeps things interesting! Well, you know what they say: "If at first you don't succeed, fail, fail, again....." or "The ninth time is the charm!"

and, in a final thought this morning---

My sister, Allison, is a happy, Mother and Wife that loves her family and loves life. We are bonded very much by our senses of humor and our fingers on the pulse of pop culture. Her favorite band is Five for Fighting that is known for such songs as, "Superman," "100 Years," "Disneyland," and their latest, "Chances." She took her loving husband, my brother-in-law, Justin, to a concert last week where she got to up her "groupie" status a little more. She went backstage after the show, to the meet and greet, and got to meet the singer/songwriter that rocks her socks. This would be equal for me meeting those Jonas Brothers, my favorite. So she tells the singer how much she loves the music, and the one thing that every rockstar wants to hear. "I crank up your music and listen to it while I clean my house!!!" He responded with a half-hearted "Great." and took a picture with her! So when the next Five for Fighting album comes out, I am sure that there will be talk by the band, "what songs will help Allison dust her shelves a little quicker?" "I think this song will really help her put some bounce in her house." They may even write a song or two just for her. I can hear them now..... "Dirty Laundry" or "Vaccum The Stairs"---

CONCRETE JUNGLE WHERE DREAMS ARE MADE OF

I am involved and influenced by a many great people. My friend and business associate, Young Sim, is prepping a mix tape that he has been workin' hard on with original jams and remixes, and even talked me into (ok, I jumped at the chance faster than that new Miley Cyrus movie bombed at the box office [and no I have not seen it. yet.]) hosting the mixtape. I play a...well it's funny, and it's got some hip-hop that is clean, and makes you feel good. Here is a sample of  a remix of "State of Mind" that he did with Facts, in fact...



Now mind you, this mixtape will be available for free download SOON, and if this has not sold you enough, it will contain my stirring rendition of the Alicia Keys chorus of "Empire State of Mind" (I bet you can't wait.......)

MY, MY, WHAT A BIG CARROT YOU HAVE THERE.....

Happy belated Easter, there folks! I am just now finding the eggs, and let me tell you, it smells like rotten eggs around here! Either that, or I need to do my laundry.

 Do you know what is worse than finding an easter egg a week after Easter? Finding it two weeks late. Ha. Anyone? Is this thing on?

As a springtime gift, the folks over at The Muppet's Studio have gave us a viral video with a monster named Big Mean Carl, dressed as a bunny, and all he is asking is to "Stand By Me"......




There is nothing like a little violence served up by our friends, The Muppets.....

I AM NOT DEAD

Hey campers! I have been offline for a week or so. My mac decided to up and just blow-up on me the other day, so I have been without access to my little horse and pony show on the world wide internet of web here. Let me tell you, it has been rough. People have thought I have been depressed, or dead, or worse, actually busy with a life. Nope, just a computer malfuntion.
