I've been living in downtown detroit for a while now and basically have the tigers stadium out my front door. Today i will be attending my first tigers game and im very excited. They will be playing against the texas rangers at seven p.m and i hope they rock their panties off.

The tree man: Dede Koswara's strange medical conditon

Throughout my life i have seen some bizarre medical conditions, and so far nothing compares to the tree man disease. He has what looks to be tree branches growing out of his arms and feet. It really is the hpv virus(warts) that has run ramped all over his body due to a very rare immune system disorder which won't allow his body to control the virus.

His case has been documented on the discovery channel and tlc. Since then he has gone through extensive medical procedures to help make his life easier to manage, by removing thirteen pounds of warts.

This case is by far one of the most striking things i have ever encountered. Here's a video and a picture so you can be amazed as well(not for those with a weak stomach).

Pepsi Throwback

So i was cruising the isles of meijer with my beloved boyfriend and i see this towering stack of twelve packs that looked out of this world. The product was pepsi throwback and we being pop connoisseurs,just had to check it out.

My expertise in the art of pop tasting says that it was absolutely delicious. I recommend it to people who are trying to keep it all natural and stay away from high fructose corn syrup(which seems to be in everything sweet).

one of my favorite rap songs, obie trice 'the set up'

The one thing i like about this song is the crazy fresh beat dr. dre created for it, there really isn't any thing particularly sweet about the lyrics. Just your typically everyday hood shit but the beat is so sweet i just can't get enough.

The Fourth Dimension

Never have i come across something so delightful and entertaining as Carl Sagan explaining the Fourth Dimension.I especially enjoyed when he displayed the Tesseract , trying to envision a fourth dimension is among one of the only things i like doing in my spare time, well maybe not that often,but often enough.

Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot

I found this on a message board i go to and it was so moving that i just had to repost it here. I felt that i had to share it with more people so that they can stand in awe of Carl Sagan.Enjoy!

Kings of Leon

I like Kings of Leon for three reasons, these two songs and that i was introduced to the most amazing boyfriend and person in world at one of their concerts about three years back.

Eminem:Three A.M.

Lately i've heard a couple of Eminem songs on the radio and they have left me a little dissatisfied. I knew he must have some sweet thing coming off his new album Relapse and then i found this gem.The songs is called Three A.M and i love it.Many people talk crap about Eminem but i find his cadence astounding and his lyrics genius... for the most part.

House Season Five and True Blood Season Two

House has been one of my favorite television shows of all time and season five will be coming to a close very shortly.It's season finale is on May 11th,2009. So i must replace my t.v fix with another great show,True Blood.Which is beginning it's second season on HBO and will premier June 14th 2009(If you don't have HBO like myself,you can always catch it on http://surfthechannel.com a few days after like i do) . The show is based off the book series, The Southern Vampire Mysteries. Written by Charlaine Harris and flew off the press in 2001.

A scientist over in Japan developed a synthetic blood which enabled vampires to become a part of society. The show takes place in the small town of Bon Temps,Louisiana. Where most of the locals are and are not ajusting to their new friends coming out from the darkness. The main character is Sookie Stackhouse and the show mostly reloves around her and the stange things that start happening once she starts becoming involved with Bill Compton, a vampire that has deep roots in the town.

I'll share the trailer with you so you can get a better idea of what the shows all about.
