<description><![CDATA[Every American, sooner or later, gets the daunting request to do their civic duty.  We are told that it is our responsibility as American citizens to accept our extra duties willingly and professionally.  I disagree.

<title>A Mother of a Holiday</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_2723_A-Mother-of-a-Holiday.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[I’m not big on planning. In fact, some might say that the entire trajectory of my life has been the result of carefully choreographed lack of planning. I want to plan, I need to plan, but when push comes to shove, everything always seems to boil down to whatever I can throw together on the spur of the moment. This is not a good way to live, but it seems to be the only way I can actually accomplish anything and still maintain some degree of sanity. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Screw Geoffrey Chaucer. Not for his poetry, quite honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever read any of it, but because apparently he inadvertently created Valentine’s Day. I didn’t know this until recently. I just assumed the holiday was the byproduct of greeting card company greed and lack of anything better to do in the month of February, but evidently it’s been around for quite some time. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Etihad Airlines have just commenced direct flights between Abu Dhabi and Sydney. The first landing in Sydney was not a great success. Coming in to land the A340-500 overshot the taxiway off the main 34-left runway and the aircraft had to potter along to the end of the runway before turning in towards the international terminal. Poor Sydney Airport aircraft controller inadvertently left his microphone open and was heard to say. "Bloody hell. Here it comes, another bloody Sunday driver". Perhaps he was not amused? Another comment was. "Where the hell is he going, the Opera House?"

The 'enemy' on the other side consisted of one Cuban soldier, sitting on a deck chair, smoking a large cigar. Ah indeed, US taxpayer's dollars at work.

As I got to the car, the previous winner in line, stepped out from his car and offered me five hundred bucks cash for my tickets.  Did I take the money?  Whaddaya think, I’m crazy?]]></description>

As many have heard this past week, Jennifer Wilbanks had a case of cold feet or possibly as she said “running away from fears controlling her life.” She created a prank that she was kidnapped so she could avoid marrying John Mason, who in my opinion is the biggest dumb fuck this side of the moon. But the people who are dumber than him are the ones who believe she had some kind of “fear” controlling her life. He had an excuse, he was pussy-whipped. ]]></description>

Firstly, there was no flirting with a mysterious stranger due solely to the fact that instead of Brad Pitt beside me on the plane, I was seated next to Mrs Blob and her husband – not quite what I had in mind. Next, the lovely family with whom I stayed had a very cute, very cheeky but very lively three year old boy (I’ve never seen any three year olds in James Bond films have you?)  Anyway, being a kind and generous person, I had taken him a present wrapped up in blue tissue paper and a big red bow. I’d had forgotten, however, that if you give a 3 year old a present, they expect you to play with it again and again and again. He was cute but hardly Pierce Brosnan.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Earlier this month two leading figures of political party the BNP (British National Party) were granted bail after appearing in court on racial hatred charges. The right-wing party, led by Nick Griffin, are little more than a bit player in terms of the election, as their intolerance and divisive tactics have thankfully been rejected by the majority of British people. However despite an undercover BBC documentary that showed members of the party bragging of attacks on Asians and spewing racist vitriol, Mr Griffin claims the party has been unfairly represented. With the election in May looming, I spoke to Mr Griffin about his alleged racism, the reputation of his party and his hopes for the future.* DISCLAIMER: Interview may not have actually taken place]]></description>

What could have killed it? Another huge insect ?   Perhaps a June bug the size of Mack Truck? Insecticide? It would have to be an inordinately large can of Raid.  Who knows?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hello and welcome to the Journal. As you know 2005 has been a crazy year so far. A Tsunami wiped out most of Southeast Asia, the book was closed on the hockey season, and as you may have heard 14,321 times since it happened, the Pope has died. However, no one was ready for the assassination on rational thought that is taking place right now in a courthouse in sunny California. Ladies and gentleman, please welcome the Michael Jackson baby raping trial. Because no matter how you slice and dice it, that is what it is. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[First, let’s go directly for Chris Rock. He was funny, but could have been a little more edgy, but as he put it “I was working for someone that day. If you want to see me cross the line, go to the Chris Rock show.” True, which pretty much proved my point from last week. Chris Rock is a responsible adult who knows when to fuck around and when not to, and much to the chagrin of all those conservatives, behaved himself.

<title>The Oscars are Going to Rock</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1026_The-Oscars-are-Going-to-Rock.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Awards for art are fucking idiotic. That’s poetry. 
My name is Michael Jae and this is my journal. 

It is about time we saw someone like Chris Rock take center stage in a huge event like the Oscars. Yes, Chris fucking Rock. It is time to celebrate people. In the dawn of an FCC witch hunt, the academy strapped on their balls and decided to take on Rock as a host. 

Chris Rock (who I still see as Pooky from New Jack City all the time) is one of the best voices to represent this country. He may be vulgar, he may not be politically correct, but he says what many people are thinking. He is not running for public office or anything like that. He is a comedian, an entertainer. Most of the things he says are to be taken with a grain of salt. It is commentary on how he sees the world. That’s all. I believe he is a great choice for this event because in a city as fake as Hollywood, Rock is the reality wake up call for it.

<description><![CDATA[Now, let’s talk about baseball - yes, baseball - that game when you pitch the ball, you hit the ball, and you throw the ball as it was so elegantly explained in the movie "Bull Durham." I know every guy out there can remember the first baseball game they ever went to with their father. I had my first beer at a baseball game. I was able to bond with my father for nine innings (whenever he would stay for them), which was a stretch because there was never any other time. My first game was at Comiskey Park in 1984, when the White Sox took a dive to the Toronto Blue Jays, 8 to 4. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I became a life-long fan of the work of Douglas Adams through his wonderful creation “The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy”.  I’m particularly fond of his work of non-fiction “Last Chance To See”, in which he traveled around the world visiting various endangered species, and then wrote about the trips in his hilarious and endearing style. Since his tragic death in 2001, re-reading this book inspired me to create the website “Another Chance To See” in which I try to bring the stories of these animals up-to-date.]]></description>

<title>THE JAE JOURNAL</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_883_THE-JAE-JOURNAL.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello everyone and welcome to this special New Year edition of the Journal. I just want to let people know that a magazine called “The Cheers” has taken the special task of publishing this fine piece of art week after week. The website is www.thecheers.org and if you get a chance you should check it out. My buddy Andy Martello (the juggler you have seen on SRTV/MJP) is a columnist there and I hope to soon follow his footsteps. The feedback has been good, but there are some haters who wish they could write as well as me, but end up making a dyslexic look more organized than a palm pilot.

<description><![CDATA[Last week I had the interesting experience of attending two red carpet events in Los Angeles. I was at the first event as a guest and the second as one of the hosts. The experience gave me a lot of insight into the workings of Hollywood. First of all, let me make it clear that I am a Hollywood “nobody”. I am on the fringe of the fringes of the entertainment industry, making me a clear and unbiased observer.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hi! My name’s Carl Bradshaw and I work as a writer for Manhattan's favourite glossy men’s magazine! Every Wednesday my friends and I meet to do lunch at our favourite trendy high street café. We 'catch up' and chat about all manner of subjects, be it literature (erotic), films (pornographic) or politics (who’s fucking whom)- somehow the conversation always seems to come round to sex, which we love to talk about - in gynaecological detail! I often wonder if our parents fed us nothing but liquidised jazz-mags as babies, given the amount of base crudity that spews from our unapologetic mouths...]]></description>

He's 17, yet still takes orders from mommy and daddy, he's afraid of getting on a bus, meaning he cant go anywhere without one of his parents to drive him. He's a wet blanket for anything fun that isn't playing with a deck of cards or on a computer (always at his house). ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Everyone knows the dirty and slimy green ogre Shrek and his self- proclaimed mottormouth friend, the Donkey. Shrek was supposed to end up as a perfect "and they lived happily everafter" fairytale. But the entire storyboard team at Dreamworks had a different idea. Instead of putting the story to rest, they reincarnated it by giving it a new twist - when Shrek meets his in-laws. Enter Shrek 2.]]></description>

They have some of the funkiest swing and jazz tunes with a hot and vibrant 3-piece horn section and another four creating havoc across the stage. Ultimately, this gives way to some of the most incredibly loud and energetic sounds you have heard! The big man and lead singer, Stuart Fisher, relaxes slightly from his ever so dramatic self and talks about his musical life.]]></description>

They are an energy-crazed and incredibly talented couple making up the name of Longjetty, with deeply emotional lyrics and amazingly unique riffs that could only be summed up as rock n roll. At a rare moment, Tom takes time out to talk about life, lyrics, and the loves of his life, Brad and Chad.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[One of the things I enjoy most about writing for this trade is that I can write about whatever I want. In between watching Schoolhouse Rock on DVD I receive random thoughts and write them down for you to read. Some people enjoy them and some don't. I get emails from people who have wide opinions of me [and I have my own opinions on them as well]. Some write and say they like what I've written but wouldn't want me to hire their daughters for "summer work". Some people have said that I look like Ron Jeremy which is true but only from the waist down. Some say I'm an asshole, I'm out there, I'm insane. I vehemently AGREE with all of these assessments. ]]></description>

For the umpteen time in the history of Dutch football, they have started off brightly, shimmered brightly with promise only to fall at the last hurdle again.

<description><![CDATA[Genshen are an indie-pop band based in Brisbane, Australia, with a passion for their alternative early indie music. They mix together their own quirky blend of cocktails with a shot of their indie influences such as Stereolab, a big dash of the pop connection and just a sprinkle of their sonic, electronic sound as though they had come out of a 70s sci-fi movie. Just give it all a shake and you have the uniqueness and delightfully unusual sound of Genshen. Their live performance is fantastically energetic, showing their passion for the organicness of music and hitting the audience with a feel that no CD could give.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Back in da day I was a club jock. I was spinnin' disco, R&B and funk long without having my ass hang out of my pants. I started in '78 and still do to some degree. My music tastes are wide and varied. I don't poo-poo pop music because if you remember The Stones, Zeppelin and others were all pop at one time before they became classic rock. To say the Backstreet Boys, Nsync and others "suck" is to say you're a miserable prick. Their music ain't aimed at you, it's aimed at kids and soccer moms. Let them enjoy it. Just because there's nothing ignorant, negative or degrading about it doesn't mean it's not pleasing for them to listen to. That's what old timers said about The Beatles, The Monkees and others. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Smooth, delicate and very poppy, The Delays are the latest in a line of British bands, including Franz Ferdinand and Keane, hoping to bring rock back to the forefront of the UK music scene. Their debut album, Faded Seaside Glamour is truly one of the unexpected dbuts albums this year. Filled with sugar-laden hooks and harmony driven brilliance, it provides much needed blasts of summer. Their influences range from 60s bands such as The Hollies, to early 80s pop and through to the current post-Strokes garage sound of their contemporaries. All of these combine superbly to create one of the most unforgettable dbuts of the year.]]></description>
