A blog about youthful and fun things! No seriously, this is a blog about fun media, pop culture, cartoons, animation, colorful topics, and alot more I can’t categorize!
I don’t know how else to describe it….. 8 crews wrecked shop last night on the second season of MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew. If any of ya’ll missed it, make sure you catch a rerun! (We all know MTV’s famous for re-runs)
The cleverness of concept that goes into these routines are off the hook! These crews have totally raised the bar on what can truly be considered “dancing” for this day and age!
So, the premiere of Season 2’s America’s Best Dance Crew set the stage for the whole season! “Expect the Unexpected” was a line delivered by the crew that received the axe tonight. The dance crew Distorted X from Houston Texas will not be continuing to try for the title of America’s Best Dance Crew.
I personally thought they did a phenomenal job tonight. It’s true, America may have gotten it Wrong this time, as some of the crews that did continue to make it in the contest were (to say the least) unimpressive tonight.
Bye bye Distorted X, unfortunately, it is America’s loss not to be graced by more of your clever routines
But never fear Houston! We still have Houstonians in the contest and they are reppin beautifully!
So Real Cru performed with “Explosion!”, even though Lil Mama totally butchered Ailyn’s name on camera! Can’t wait till next week! They always keep me entertained….and I know these guys work really hard. Keep up the good work you guys!
With the popularity of Reality TV Dance Competitions, the craze is continuing to sky rocket! Especially since the second season of MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew started airing this past Saturday.
I have to declare the admiration I have for Houston’s own So Real that currently made it into the Top Ten and will continue to compete for the title of America’s Best Dance Crew. I have special ties to this group because I was part of the first generation of So Real. This next generation has taken everything to the next level, and I am incredibly proud of these young and very talented individuals.
They’ve evolved from years of performing at college competitions, to winning the Hip Hop World of Dance Tour, until their debut at the Live Auditions on MTV’s Second Season of America’s Best Dance Crew.

Hot up and coming Houston Fashion Designer Danny Nguyen recently held a fashion show at The Roxy this past weekend that was smashing! I had the pleasure of taking photos at the event.
I visited Houston’s Museum of Printing History recently and got my fill (again) of the beautiful antique presses and the gorgeous wood blocks and printing plates. For those of you who love antiquey items, non-computer-generated, old-fashioned prints–this place is like heaven.
Just take a look at these lovelies! (Taken by Yours Truly)

At this time, the museum also has an amazing exhibit showing: Visual Voice: The Poster Art of Finn Nygaard
Finn Nygaard is an Internationally well-known Contemporary Graphic Designer and Poster Artist.
“My heart beats for the poster; posters run though my whole life and work. They present a diary of history, of meetings, traveling in time. The poster is a wonderful way of connecting people and the perfect piece of information.” –Finn Nygaard, 2005
Oh, one last tidbit of cool things I want to share about this quaint, lovely museum…they have the tiniest books on display!
I love this place! It gives you a very comfortable feeling walking through their showcases. So if you’re ever in Houston around River Oaks and West Clay area, I highly suggest you stop by!
Yes. This year’s Superbowl was one of the greatest upsets in NFL history… but……….The Giants Win!!! The Giants WIN!!!!!! I’d say….here here for the underdogs!
And the commercials..the long awaited and billions of dollars worth commercials, were - I dare say - very entertaining still.
Great Scott! Bringing Back to the Future to the Present Future!
Marty: Whoa! This is heavy!
Doc: There goes that word again, heavy. Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravitational pull?
Tell me, who doesn’t love Back to the Future movies? The classic characters of Marty, Doc, the McFlys and that fantastic, time-traveling car, The Delorean.
The beloved Spielberg film, Back to the Future has inspired the creation and patent of the famous Nike shoes from Back to the Future Part II! Check out this movement that came about for the petition the actual release of these futuristic kicks to the public!
