Funny e-mail convo of the day:

About Sex in the City:

Aileen: Let’s all go karaoke tonight!
Anne: Darn, cant go at 11pm- watching sex in the city at 1am.
Ridge: They like 60 years old…OMG! you can watch menopause in the city anytime you want. KTV (karaoke) is not every day.

An acoustic video featuring up-and-coming Boston-based band, Forget the Girl.

Enjoy.

On a side note, keep June 28th open. We’re bringing to you a monster party and will be doing something good for the world at the same time. Keep it locked here on Peas and Nuts!

Snapple people in action

Right now, Snapple is giving away free bottles of “Snapple Anti-oxidant Wa+er” (aka. Bootlet Vitamin Water). Tastes the same, pretty much.

There’s a big ol’ truck there. Enjoy. (published at 3:02pm)

From New York to Atlanta. This Friday, Peas and Nuts does Atlanta for memorial day weekend. As usually, we’ll be twittering (over on the right side) what we’re doing in ATL.

This might be the dumbest funny things we’ve done. To put into perspective how stupidly funny this trip is, we’re not flying…we’re DRIVING 14 hours to Atlanta for a 3 day weekend! Here is some of the stupid stuff we plan on seeing:

Stupid:
- The World’s Biggest Chest Drawers (NC)
- The World’s Biggest Peach (SC)
- South of the Border (SC)
- possibly the World’s Biggest Milk Carton (NC)
- Club 112 and Gladys and Rons’ Chicken & Waffles (the ghetto-ist of ghetto). If we don’t come back alive, we endow this blog fully to Alice. And yes, it’s THE Gladys Knight! See the Media Gallery…haha…

Less stupid stuff:
- Braves Game on Saturday to see The Big Unit (Randy Johnson) and possibly Tom Glavine (Older timers games. I hope John Smoltz pitches).
- Coca-Cola Factory
- BBQ
- Hunt for MTV Crib’s houses for the Ying Yang Twins
- Maybe a stop over at Chapel Hill

This trip is going to be crunk (refer to video).

Another story from Stella:

So I’m at my cousin’s wedding reception. She wanted to save cash for the dinner. So she didn’t have a DJ or an MC. However, this ballsy ass clown guy decided to take the reigns on this, and become the MC/DJ.

I went up and tried to change the CD. He looks my way and says, “Hey! I like you. You wanna dance?”

Me: “no”

I guess he didn’t hear me because, again he goes “Yo…You wanna dance?!?”

Me (again): “no”

So I’m on the dance floor, and then I hear him grab the mic and screams “YOU ARE SO PRETTY! SO GORGEOUS! I WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU!!!”

and then he starts gyrating his hips. And then says, “YOU KNOW HOW TO CHA CHA? IT’S LIKE THIS. *gyrate* *gyrate* WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER? I WANT YOUR NUMBER”

One of my guy cousins runs over and is like “dude…RELAX!…I think she’s your cousin!”

The scene, B is freakin’ out over nothing again. Goes to Evmo in panic mode…

Evmo: Yo B…relajate! (reh-leh-hah-tay)
B: What? Have a latte?

relajate - (you) relax!

A brand new N Train at the 34th Street subway stop. Doing a test run.

Apparently Kawasaki makes more than just motorcycles, jet skis, and other extreme sports vehicles. They make New York City subways too. If you notice in the background, the seats are still wrapped in original plastic. It even had that “new car” smell to it.

With the NBA playoffs well underway and into the second round, the Knicks are predictably no where to be seen or heard from. So I thought I’d take it back to the spring of 1999, a more memorable time for Knick fans. Here is a look at two of the most unforgettable shots that spring, as the 8th seeded Knicks stormed through the playoffs and into the NBA Finals:

#1 - Game scenario: It’s the 4th quarter of the 5th game in the best of five series vs. the Miami Heat. The Heat lead 77-76, its Knick possession with 4.5 seconds left on the clock, their season hanging in the balance. Charlie Ward makes the inbounds pass to Allan Houston, who catches the ball at the top of the key…

*The look on Alonzo’s face after the shot went in - priceless. Man, I hated Alonzo*

#2 – Game Scenario: It’s the 4th quarter of game 3 in the Eastern Conference Finals vs. the Indiana Pacers. The Knicks have possession, trailing by three points, 91-88 with 11.9 seconds left. Larry Johnson boggles the inbounds pass before securing it (the entire Madison Square Gardens catches their breath), he head fakes, drives left to the 3pt line, shoots, *referee blows whistle indicating he was fouled*…..net, pandemonium at the Garden!!!

*LJ would go on to hit the free throw to seal the win for the Knicks. *

Take note on how the entire Madison Square Garden jumped when the shot went in (even shaking the cameras), still gives me goose bumps to this day. The Garden has been quiet the last few springs; hopefully they can turn things around. Until then, Knick fans can always dwell on moments such as these.
