First we had an ode to Chat Roulette by You Tube star Merton whom many thought was Ben Folds. Now we have Ben Folds performing an ode to Merton at a live concert in Charlotte North Carolina on Chat Roulette. This is definitely worth watching. Look for the guy with the notebook who reveals his face at the end.

If you haven’t heard of brother and sister duo, Angus and Julia Stone, the time has come to add them to your playlist. The sophomore release from this duo would be well accompanied with a glass of chardonnay, sitting on the porch as the sun goes down. Although the Australian born duo write music independently from each other, the two come together in perfect harmony. Like spending time with an old friend on a warm summer’s day.

Nothing stops James Brown from moving on. Not even death. The singer’s body, kept on ice by one of his many children in South Carolina since his Boxing Day death 4 years ago, has, um vanished. “My daddy’s body has disappeared,” LaRhonda Pettit told the U.K.’s Daily Mirror tabloid.
Pettit, an illegitimate child of Brown’s, has been holding onto her daddy’s body while waiting for a mausoleum to be built. Must be quite the building. Brown leaves behind a stack of soulful sounds and the sounds of Pettit and 12 other alleged children clamouring for a slice of the inheritance. With legal problems like that, who can blame him for leaving town–dead or alive.

Canadians, not traditionally known for having inflated egos are now becoming known for something else inflated, giant beavers. The stars of the 2010 Winter Olympics finale in Vancouver have exploded onto the scene and are Canada’s newest export.
In fact the beavers are so popular in North America and abroad, they even have their own face book page. You too can own your own inflatable beaver for a mere $5000 by contacting Famous Inflatables in Windsor Ontario. Just make sure to avoid any awkward moments and deflate your artificial beaver before company arrives.

“Let’s unleash the lawyers” has probably caused more simultaneous moving of bowels across the prisons of America than anything uttered since the Spanish Inquisition.
At 4’11”, Nancy is the kind of dynamo, nay, Tasmanian devil you’d want in your corner. Provided your corner didn’t have a serial rapist, child murderer or Tiger Woods in it. While this might not be LA Justice, it certainly is Hollywood—where rumor, innuendo and hysteria meet up with fact. God Bless the USA. And God Bless Nancy Grace–she’s made millions of fans and dollars from an erstwhile less than prime time television slot.
