First, before I begin today’s entry, I want everyone to check out I Love Cute Things! where I recently purchased a pair of originally designed notepads. You’ll find adorable handcrafted trinkets with the perfect personal touch! Plus, her blog, which you can find under the Crafts ‘n Things section of my links, is a lot of fun to read through.

Now, the newest abomination to spew out of MTV is the show Score hosted by the muppet-like Ryan Cabrera. Cabrera, clearly chosen for his lyrical genius, guides two competing and aspiring singer/songwriters on their quest for 15 minutes of fame. Unlike Nick Cannon Presents: Wild ‘N Out which requires a certain level of wit and talent in impromtu, Score is rehearsed and boring. Cabrera hasn’t been around long enough to give audiences (even 14-year-old ones, at that) his personal insight on the lyrical creativity of his contestants. Even if, say, Cabrera’s songs were remotely listenable his stage presence alone makes one cringe; his gravity defying hair is more acceptable in a Dragonball Z universe than it is on TV.

Moving on to even worse TV: I know Mind of Mencia is a new favorite on Comedy Central and I can’t deny that it might have it’s moments (which, unfortunately, are only found on the website with unaired clips like “Ask Carlos”) but I think we should all be honest with ourselves: Mencia’s show exists only and only to fill the greatly missed gap of Dave Chapelle. Since it would be difficult to top Chapelle’s racial humor, Comedy Central scrambled to find the next best thing. But, Mencia really isn’t that funny, at least not Chapelle funny. He hollars into the microphone but only succeeds in being loud and obnoxious. Besides, just because I’m on the rebound from Chapelle doesn’t mean I’m desperate enough to watch Mencia. Rick James has a special place in my heart, bitch.

I’m pleased to report that the UNICEF Trick-or-Treat fundraising page I’ve created recieved a $5.00 donation today! All the money from the fundraising website goes directly to help with recent disasters such as Hurricane Katrina/Wilma, the floods in Mexico and the Pakistan earthquakes. Keep sending the love!
