What do you think of Fuzz Martin?

You know, because it’s Monday.

It’s sad that I even noticed they were using a Hassleblad camera in that shoot… but I did.

…like a boss…

After watching Celebrity Apprentice last night, I really think that NBC would do well to create a show that combines The Apprentice with A&E’s Intervention.

Dennis Rodman is definitely in need of some sort of help for his alcoholism. Of course, you can’t help somebody unless they’re ready and willing to get help – which he doesn’t appear to be.

There is a photo circulating of the world’s greatest swimmer, Michael Phelps, taking a hit off of a huge bong at a party in Columbia, South Carolina.

While I’m neither here, nor there, on whether or not pot smokers should be ridiculed as heavily as we Americans tend to ridicule them, I do think that Phelps is dumbass. He has tons of endorsement deals, right now, there are countless children that look up to him, and he has to train for the 2012 Olympics.

His excuse:  “I’m 23 years old and despite the successes I’ve had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way”  Uhm… okay.

From a PR standpoint, smoking a gigantic bong isn’t going to net any positive rewards, so why do it? Smoking a gigantic bong with a bunch of stoner college kids with credit card bills and cell phone cameras is an even dumber idea.

At least he didn’t blame it on A.D.D., right?

President with socialist tendencies vs. Book with anti-socialist message

Shepard Fairey is a fantastic artist and a huge Barack Obama supporter. Recently, he designed the covers of George Orwell’s classics, “1984″ and “Animal Farm” for Penguin Books. I think it’s both ironic and contradictory.

I just saw this on Yahoo:

Is this what they were going for, here? :

All my dreams are dead.

Now that everybody is finally done talking about Brett Favre, I am open to invitations to join the FuzzMartin.com Fantasy Football Challenge. On the line is my lone-remaining FuzzMartin.com t-shirt that will go to the winner. I promise it’s not dusty. I don’t promise that it will fit.

When I have 10 people signed up, I’ll get the autodraft ready.

Oh, yeah, it’s free — in case you were wondering.

In a politics, campaign managers and PR reps will tell you it’s all about relating to people. Selling their candidate to you as a brand…as a general rule, people vote for the candidate who they connect with the best. The person they would want to sit around a listen to music and drink beer on a Friday night.

In the attempts to further that message…Blender Magazine (a shell-brand for Maxim, who’s focus is all things music and getting young female artists to pose semi-nude on the cover) reports on Obama and McCain’s Top 10 favorite songs. The songs are listed below and I put in SeeqPod players below each list, so you can enjoy the music!

Here is the list they (their publicists) gave to Blender.

I have been enjoying my new TV and digital cable…between AMC, Universal and TCM I have re-visited LOTS of great movies. With that, I give you: Gordon Gecko.

Sorry if you TiVo-ed it…but it happened last night so it’s fair game to blog about today…

I didn’t think the Frozen Donkey Wheel was as exciting as last years Rattlesnake in the Mailbox…
but the Season 4 finale was pretty good…and leaves some good unanswered questions for the final 2 seasons of the show.

Here is a quick video which shows the 3 different endings shot for the finale.

Uhm, Stephen, this is live.

Hilarious!

Surely you’ve heard that Mindy McCready threw Roger Clemens under the bus, stating that she had a 10-year affair with him that started when she was 15 years old.

Never mind that Mindy McCready is so messed up on OxyContin that she was busted for writing her own prescriptions. The media certainly didn’t think that it was relevant. Nor did they think that the following were relevant: she got the standard drunk-driving conviction, she stole a truck and took the driver hostage, she beat up her mom and got arrested, she tried to commit suicide — twice, oh, and she just got out jail in January for some of her earlier drug convictions.

But wait, there’s more! McCready’s friend states that Mindy was actually 17 at the time, and that nothing sexual happened.

Well, isn’t it prudent that a mere week after this desperate hussy came out with these claims against Clemens, she is “relaunching her career.” (according to syndicated radio host – Danny Wright).

To clarify — I’m not defending Clemens — I definitely don’t think it’s right that he was hanging out with a 17-year-old girl when he was 28. The appearance of impropriety is pretty damning. However, the timing and delivery of McCready’s statement, in conjunction with her hopes of renewing her career AND her lack of any and all credibility, is pretty rotten.

This is cute!

I feel kinda like a dope this morning. Yesterday, I posted the Dove Onslaught ad that encourages you to, “talk to your daughter before the beauty industry does.”

Then I came across a video parody of the Onslaught video that I posted yesterday. In this video, it shows Axe commercials as the onslaught of self-image-reducing ads. Axe, of course, is owned by Unilever, who also owns the Dove brand.

Here’s the video:

I know this is all old news, but it’s new to me – and I think it’s completely unethical.

This morning was the first time that I had ever seen the Dove Onslaught viral video. As a dad of a little girl, it really touches home – especially after the Hannah Montana photo shoot fiasco.

If you recall, Dove also did the Dove Evolution video about the modeling and advertising industries:

Of course, Greenpeace doesn’t like Dove so much:
