Daisy Dares You Claims She Was Misquoted regarding Collaborator Chipmunk

Filed under: Making Merry: Entertainment — admin @ 10:48 am

Newcomer Daisy Dares You has hit back at claims that she doesn’t like Chipmunk and dirt music.

The vocalist – who cooperated with the ‘Oopsy Daisy’ rapper on new single ‘Number One Enemy’ – has disclosed that she was misquoted.
It’s slightly at odds with her music – for all her punky attitude, she’s best at old-fashioned girly pop. New single No1 Enemy and Like An Idiot are as frothy and catchy as Bananarama.

It’s when Daisy tries to be serious, like with the slower Rush, that the 16-year-old’s lack of experience trips her up.
Daisy announces : “Just been online and read a site asserting I dislike dirt and Chipmunk. I needed to say I was surely misquoted and never expounded I abhor dirt or Chip. “Chip and I know one another good enough for him to grasp my music tastes are broad. If I did not like or appreciate dirt, why would I collaborate with him?? What the f*** do people believe they are doing?” she explained. “I’m so indignant which has been recounted. We’re going on tour together, I believe Chips great and I love what he is done to my track. Sorry if this misquote has shocked anybody. All music is good music.” You can watch Daisy Dares You and Chipmunk together in the #1 Enemy video. The tune gets released on Feb twenty-two. Chipmunk releases Chip Diddy Chip this month too.

Learning to Understand Your Astrology Chart

Filed under: Making Merry: Entertainment — admin @ 10:23 pm

Many times an astrologer will be asked the question whether or not a relationship will break up or get back together when the love life is having problems. There are several factors to look at in the astrology chart to analyze whether a marriage or romantic relationship is under enough planetary stress to warrant divorce or permanent breakup.

First look at the fate of the astrology chart and see if the individual has the qualities of long term relationship. These factors are seen with fixed signs, Aquarius, Taurus, Leo and Scorpio with the personal planets, especially the Sun, Moon, Venus, and the ascendant. The next is to determine if the ruler of the 7th house of marriage and partnership is a planet in a fixed sign, and whether or not it is afflicted. If the planet is afflicted it indicates more complications with love life and long term partnership. Your role as an astrologer is to also determine the health of Venus, the planet of love, and whether or not it is afflicted.

An affliction can be determined when there are difficult aspects to the planet you are looking at, in this case the planet that rules the seventh house and Venus. If your Venus is connected with Uranus, Saturn, Neptune or Pluto that lends a quality to the relationship that could cause certain problems in relationships when Venus undergoes stress.

The next step the astrologer will take is to determine what the astrology whether forecast is. That is to say what are the upcoming transits to your Venus and the ruler of your house of partnership. If there are difficult transits to your Venus your astrologer will be able to tell you how long they will go on, what appears to be out of balance, and what the astrology is indicating that you need to address in order to bring peace and harmony back into your love life.

Astrology can help you know when these time frames are, whether or not the compatibility between you and your lover is strong enough to whether the astrological factors, and what you can do to respect the change needed from within. When you learn astrology and become your own astrologer you have the tools and wisdom needed to understand difficult phases in life and how best to work with the energy of the planets to have the life you want.

The Water Delivery Company Loves an April Fool!

Filed under: Making Merry: Entertainment — admin @ 11:08 am

It’s that time of year most beloved of jesters the world over. That’s right, it’s April fools day. I wonder what kind of joke the Water Delivery Company might be inclined to play on its customers? That’s not to say that it isn’t an entirely professional and dedicated business, but following along the lines of the friendly and personal service it offers, the company knows that everyone likes being perked up by a harmless joke every now and again. And of course, what better day to exercise the funny bone than on the first of April? One suggestion could be to pretend that the water delivery company has run out of water and can’t be certain when they will next have any available to sell. This might be funny for five minutes but then the cost of losing a few clients might just not be worth the giggle. Maybe something more ridiculous would be appropriate, like saying that the company will now be delivering milk instead of water or that there is a new novelty water cooler in the shape of a cow, whose taps are udder-lookalikes and which dispenses both ice cold milk and hot milk for hot chocolate and coffee. Actually that’s quite a good idea…

Beware of radical mint enthusiasts

Filed under: Making Merry: Entertainment — admin @ 7:29 pm

Some things are as boring as the dust that clings to your TV screen.

Take toothpaste, for example. If you happen to be a radical mint enthusiast, brushing your teeth might be the highlight of your day. You might have the shiniest teeth in town. You might not want to interrupt your brushing for dinner … unless the menu includes mint jelly pté.

I remember one of my favorite comic strips, when Adam was trying so hard to diet. Of course, my memory is fading faster than my jeans, but here is roughly how it went:

FRAME ONE: Adam is sneaking back into bed, when his wife asks if he had been snacking.

FRAME TWO: She gives him a passionate kiss … or at least as passionate as a two-dimensional, black and white cartoon character can give.

FRAME THREE: No. All “fresh and minty”, she concludes.

FRAME FOUR: Adam thinks to himself: “Should be. I ate three tubes of toothpaste.”

For those of us who use toothpaste for brushing, it is at best bearable. There is obviously collusion at the highest levels of the mint flavor industry to squash our democratic right to a full range of toothpaste flavors.

But what if the Big Mint stranglehold could be broken? What if brushing our teeth could become a custom-designed exhilaration? What if toothpaste came in as many flavors as, say, jelly beans?

We recently tried some new jelly bean flavors on our wedding anniversary. (Oh, come on. What could be more romantic than a romp through the jelly bean dispensers?)

The strawberry daiquiri jelly beans tasted delicious. So did the strawberry cheesecake ones. The buttered popcorn ones were so-so, but the caramel popcorn jelly beans were oh-so yummy.

We tried the chocolate fudge flavor and the chocolate pudding flavor, but we passed over the chocolate covered grasshopper flavor.

They had three kinds of melon, four flavors of apple and three different toffee flavored jelly beans. But toothpaste comes in just mint. Do I hear you say, “Conspiracy theory”?

Even Little Lady’s finger paints come in eight tantalizing fruit flavors. Huh? Why would something parents try so hard to discourage kids from putting in their mouths smell like blueberries and bananas and cherries, when the toothpaste we try so hard to encourage them to put in their mouths comes in just mint.

In fairness, Little Lady’s edible toothpaste (Most toothpaste is inedible – imagine that!) comes in two flavors: berry and bubble gum … but that’s not much of a choice. Surely Big Mint will soon shut down this renegade operation muscling in on their territory.

I want to see the same creativity go into toothpaste flavors as went into “Hot Fudge Sundae” Pop Tarts. Or the Plymouth Prowler retro dragster. Or those chocolate covered grasshopper jelly beans.

As I write this column from behind the wheel of my car – in a parking lot, of course – I see so many people pass by. Tall people. Short people. Thin people. Neat people. Sloppy people. Human people. Canine people. People carrying. People riding. People smiling. People frowning. If there are so many types of people, and my grocery store stocks 72 types of cereal and 37 types of crackers, doesn’t it seem just a little spooky that none of the toothpaste manufacturers are willing to stand up to Big Mint?

Variety is the spice of life. Don’t let Big Mint oppress you. Don’t let the mint-enthusiast bullies stifle your democratic right to free taste.

There is no conclusive evidence that a handful of pumpkin-pie-flavored jelly beans will derail your diet more than three tubes of “fresh and minty” toothpaste. So enjoy your multicultural jelly beans … even if you are on a diet.
