I’ll tell you what…for the fifth time in two decades, Pepsi has unveiled a new logo which should hit stores early next year. And along with Pepsi’s transformation, Sierra Mist and Mountain Dew have also gotten a new look.  Do we likey?

I’ll Take A Glass!

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

I’ll tell you what…Taylor Swift is the latest celeb to put that goo on her upper lip and promote milk.  I like it.  It’s a great pic and it’s working:  I was going to have a slice of pizza for lunch, but now I think I will pound a glass of milk.  She says “Anything that promotes good health is something that I believe in,” she says. “Drinking milk is a priority for me.” 

It does a body good!

I’ll tell you what…if it’s free, it’s for me!  Taco Bell is giving away free tacos tomorrow (10.28).

He’s Sorry, So Sorry!

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

I’ll tell you what…Tim Mcgraw is sincerely sorry. Like, Country music sorry. So sorry that he has a message for fans about his latest Greatest Hits album.

Tim McGraw

“I am saddened and disappointed that my label chose to put out another hits album instead of new music. I had no involvement in the creation or presentation of this record,” he says in a statement ripping his label, Curb Records, and noting he has three brand new songs ready and a studio album in the works for next year.

“The whole concept is an embarrassment to me as an artist. In the spirit of an election year, I would simply say to my fans ‘I’m Tim McGraw and I don’t approve their message.’ “

Halloween Costume Ideas!

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

I’ll tell you what…We’re about three weeks away from Halloween, so it’s decision-making time: Who/what will you be this year?

Fandango has set up a costume game that can help you choose which pop-culture character fits your budget and personality. (It didn’t work out so well for me — the results said my ultimate match is Hancock.  The Will Smith movie.  I think I can do better than that)

If you have any brilliant costume ideas, share ‘em in the comments. I have a feeling we’ll be seeing a ton of Mad Men types this year, along with political candidates and superheroes (especially Dark Knight/Iron Man characters). Judging by the number of Jokers seen at conventions this year, I’d advise fans to only dress like the villain if they have a fantastic costume … otherwise, it just looks sad.

Meet Me Halfway?

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

I’ll tell you what…If you ever want to “meet halfway” with someone — and I mean that literally — but don’t know where to go, I jsut found a good resource.

Meetways lets you enter two addresses, then it comes up with the halfway mark between the spots. If you type in a keyword like “coffee” or “pizza,” it will locate the nearest restaurant or coffee shop where you can see your friend for lunch, a business meeting or what have you.

Godspeed.

I Know It’s Been Awhile….

Monday, October 6th, 2008

I’ll tell you what…I don’t want you to feel neglected.  I realize it’s been a long time since iIve posted.  i have a GREAT reason.  I got married.  Yup, it all went down Sept. 20th!  It was amazing.  My bride literally took my breath away.  With all my friends and family surrounding us, it was truly the best day of my life!  We had so much fun.  As far as I know, the entire thing went off without a hitch.  The dinner, the dancing…the cake…UNBELIEVABLE!  And then, came the Honeymoon.  2 full weeks in a carribean paradise.  The eating, the drinking, the relaxing…UNBELIEVABLE!

 So…that’s where I’ve been.  What did I miss?
