Playboy Your skin,
oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful

I was watching a Coldplay concert yesterday (small venue in which the band was quite interactive with the audience; looked quite fun) in which Chris Martin was saying that the inspiration for the title of "Yellow" was the yellow pages, because while writing the song, he looked up and it was the first book he saw. And then he said "In an alternate Universe, this song would be called Playboy" Hence the title of this blog.
In other news; John Irving, a noted American author, said in an interview that he is saving Dickens' famous novel, Our Mutual Friend, as the last thing he reads before he dies. (Fans of Lost will recognize Desmond as having the same intention with the same book; Lost's writers have credited Irving with the idea) This idea has intrigued me; it would make for something to look forward to when you die, perhaps dulling the pain if it is a long and/or painful one. At any rate, it would be interesting to see if this is a viable idea; after all, rarely is one sure when they're going to die. And if you died without reading the book you planned to read, that would, I assume, make you quite a restless spirit. Also, if the book was sub-par, you'd die dissapointed and/or pissed. But the notion is original, nonetheless.
Moving along; I recently discovered that Rogers had bumped the Golf Channel in favor of MTV. Seeing as how MuchMusic has been sub-par, I decided to give MTV a try. Oddly enough, however, in roughly a week of watching it, I have yet to see MTV playing a single music video. For a TV station whose full name is Music TeleVision, they seem to find a remarkable plethora of talk shows, gossip shows and reality shows to play in place of music. One program in particular stood out to me; it seemed to be a program where mothers spent time with a guy, and the guy would assess, from the mother, whether he'd want to date her daughter or not. Putting aside the diluted arranged marriage that this essentially is, and the glorified pimping that it seems to be as well, the daughters are all hot. Not beautiful, but hot. (The difference being beautiful women are romanced over a period of time, and hot women are one-night stand-worthy) I find it nearly impossible to believe that these so-called daughters would be unable to get a date just by going clubbing any given night. Of course, this was my opinion on watching the program in mute. Upon turning the sound on, I discovered that the women--3 mothers and 3 daughters--had a combined IQ of 3.14 and an intelligence level of preschool, maybe less. The moral of the story? Women are always better on mute :P
Well, that ends my ramblings for today. Tune in later for more (or maybe I'll go for a serious post again; who knows? Tune in to find out :P )  ¶ 8:09 AM
