Do you think CBS should air Tim Tebow's anti-choice ad during the Super Bowl?
Yes. As long as both sides have equal time.
No. CBS promised that it wouldn't air "advocacy ads" of any kind.
I don't care. Who's Tim Tebow?

So where were we?
 
Oh right, I saw Twilight. I’ll be seeing it again, I’m sure. It was quite the affair. I felt so out of place without a hand made or hot topic purchased shirt. (“True Love is Forever,” “Do I dazzle you?,” “I’d rather die than live without you.”) The theatre was packed an hour before the movie started. I mean PACKED to capacity. After finagling our way back about four rows from the screen we settled in for two and a half hour of steamy vampire bliss.
 
Steamy, it was. Bliss, it wasn’t.
 
It was Edward. I needed him to be more suave. I needed his Americanized accent to not sound so forced. I needed him to stop looking so deranged in so many of the scenes. Except that one where he and Bella get out of the car and he is wearing gorgeous black wayfarer glasses. Totally swoon-worthy. (That’s right, I just said swoon-worthy.)

In honor of World AIDS Day, and the Blog-a-thon, I give you my favorite condom commercial to date. Maybe you've seen it ad nauseum or maybe you've never seen it. Either way, its totally cheesy, and adorable. I love it, and you should watch it.
 
Really, still warms my heart.

 **SPOILER ALERT GALORE**

 

It’s Twilight time, baby.

 

Have you read it? Are you part of the drooling drove of fanpires who can’t get enough of Bella, Edward, Jacob and Forks WA? Do you dream of volturi, fast expensive cars and a love so pure it lasts a lifetime? Did I say lifetime? I meant eternity. Do you long for a werewolf best friend, vampire lover, and an omniscient personal stylist sister in law?

 

Or are you completely and utterly confused by this phenomenon? Do you not get the significance of South Park’s new vampire themed episode? Are you wondering why your fourteen year old cousin just changed her name to Bell?

 

I know, I know. This whole Twilight hysteria is leaving no one untouched. Even if you have no context for the book series, you probably know that the movie is coming out soon (FRIDAY) and some guy is stirring up a boy band caliber response. Young girls across the country are swooning over the idea of Edward, and Robert Pattinson has been cast to manifest that dream, while going deaf in the process.

 

Lest I lead you astray, I have already purchased my tickets for Thursday’s midnight showing of Twilight.
