The TANboys salute the The King of Pop in their own way. But also catch some things that might have fallen through the cracks like the deaths of Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon, Iran hostilities, hypocritical cheating governors, Tim’s old boss giving his stamp of disapproval for TANcast, the perils of big boobs, an unseen/unseen/unseen review of Transformers 2, pranks pulled at the old TANhouse, Andy blowing no one’s mind with baby stories, Tim and Noah mocking the Crocs, and AT&T screwing a Myth Buster.
This week’s TANlaughs were submitted by Janelle, Mike, and Jo.

If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen this…
But there are so many little details that put the “F” in this F My Life that I need more than 140 characters to fully flesh out all the suck.
The day started off ok. I spent most of the day editing a new episode of TANcast and getting it posted. After I was done, I hopped in the Babbmobile and headed down to do my show in San Juan Capistrano. On the way down, the battery light came on in my car.

I am a Michael Jackson fan. I have been for a long time. My mom recently reminded me that my school pictures in kindergarten and 1st grade were of me wearing the same Michael Jackson shirt. (”People must have thought you didn’t own any other clothes”) I used to recreate his dance moves in talent shows which probably lead to me making a lot of my friends in middle school, high school and college. (It was nice of him to release a new album every time I changed schools to help me fit in) So I am sad to see him go…but I must confess to feeling mixed emotions on the subject…
Michael Jackson was a good example of what can happen with too much fame. And let’s be clear…the man was a superstar! These last few years, he’s usually been the punchline to a plastic surgery and/or child molestation joke, but from 1979 to 1993 the man was HUGE. The Jonas Brothers are like a small indie band compared to the success he had. People who HATE America LOVE Michael Jackson. Reconcile THAT in your head! Some dude is burning an American flag while listening to “Billie Jean” on his iPod. Read the rest of this entry »

This time Andy finally pops his SModcast cherry, Tim finds a comedian that’s worse than he is, buffering becomes a real problem, Andy discovers a downside of “personal maintenance,” Noah and Andy cream all over the new iPhone OS, the boys tell road trip stories, Tim won’t let old debates die (dorkyness, gay marriage, and legalizing marijuana), Patrick Stewart acts his balls off, we find out the Jonas Brothers are better role models than Bristol Palin, and just before the end of the show, the wheels completely fall off.

I want to try and post here, so here is my attempt at that. I have so many ideas of regular things I could blog about but I get lazy. One idea I had was to watch crappy Comcast On Demand movies and write about it but writing has never been my strong suit. Maybe I could do a mini podcast. For now we will start with some music I like.
This song had me as soon as it started playing. I think it was the hand clapping and stomping that got me. I also really harmonizing between the girls and it is a song that makes you want to get out there and drop it like it is hot. I first heard heard of Tilly and The Wall on NPR All Songs Considered and I started checking out there stuff. This song is a few years old now but I just love it. There are some songs that you like but know it is just a fling and in a few weeks you will tired of it and move on to the next hot thing. This feels like a song for years to come, I will be listening to.

I was driving along in LA the other day listening to my “80’s Baby!!!” playlist on my iPod, when something occurred to me: Bryan Adams does not get picked on nearly as much as he should! Sure he hasn’t made any music recently…but he got away with some crap that no one felt the need to call him out on…until now! I present lyrical evidence that Bryan Adams is a douchebag, the 1984 song “Run To You”! Read the rest of this entry »
I’m getting an awful lot of the features I’d hoped for, including:
Safari: Remembers and auto-fills login info, opens links in a new page, JavaScript gets a big speedup, offline storage for web apps.
Mail/SMS/etc.: Landscape (large) keyboard available all over the main apps.
MMS: Finally!
Tethering: connect a Mac or PC via USB or Bluetooth and share the 3G internet love.
There’s also some stuff I’d like that just wasn’t to be, at least not yet:
Flash: It’s like crack for web developers, but with HTML 5 features (video, audio, offline storage) and faster JavaScript we may be at a tipping point where “real web” takes back cool apps from “Flash web”, so I care a little less.
Voice Dial: Sounds like the new iPhone 3G S will have it, but not my 3G. Boo.
Bluetooth file transfer: I guess they’re not down with OPP (or GOEP, or FTP)…
Better App Management: No categories or dragging icons around in iTunes, but at least Spotlight search will let us find and launch instead of flicking left and right over and over and over and…
Better App Store rating/searching: Ooh. Parental controls. Still no filtering or reordering search results, though.
All in all, not bad. Could have been better, but still pretty damn good progress for a year’s work.
But I’ve digressed. I come not to praise Apple but to kick AT&T squarely in the nutsack. Repeatedly. Until my foot hurts.
