Movies Re-Enacted in 30 Seconds.... by Bunnies


Ever wanted to watch a movie but couldn't find the time? Check out Angry Alien Productions who have provided us with a library of movies re-enacted in 30 seconds to accomodate our fast paced lives. The actual shorts are not really that funny, but the idea of them is definitely amusing and not to mention, slightly creepy...

Flip Mino HD!




My new favorite gadget is the Flip Mino HD, a mini digital camcorder that can capture up to an hour of continuous footage in high definition. It has a built in USB to connect directly to your laptop and it comes with it's own flip video program to organize your videos and share them. It might have a small LCD screen, but with its touch- sensitive buttons and 4G of memory this product is definitely worth the purchase. If you order it from the website, www.theflip.com, you can be creative and even design your own one. If you think you've got extensive Mino designing capabilities you can sell your designs. I just got mine and love it, it's tiny, light and will def come in useful. Perfect for blackmail. Price: $229.99

Fyi: Pure Digital, the maker of the Flip, sold itself to Cisco for $590 million in stock, I think it's going to get pretty popular.

New York Arab-American Comedy Festival


I'm so excited to have been selected to be a participant of the New York Arab-American Comedy Festival this year! It's basically a festival to "showcase the talents of Arab-American actors, comics, playwrights and filmmakers" in NYC and I'm ecstatic to be a part of it! If you live in NYC you have no excuse not to be there :)

The show will be at the Comix Comedy Club on May 10th - May 14th!


Get in Shape with Tracy Anderson


So many of my friends have gotten personal trainers to get in shape, but end up with a body they don't like and less money in their bank account. I am convinced though that getting help from a professional is a smart thing to do, it's just finding the right trainer. What I catch myself doing is looking at a trainer's body and deciding if I would want to work with them or not... I mean they must be doing something right. Of course, every body works differently, but I can't help judging that way. That's why when I came across Tracy Anderson on Gwyneth Paltrow's site Goop (which is great) and the Today Show, I've really been considering investing in her DVDS... because I'm not going to pay $200 per session with her. She has her own methods that she's been researching for years and has an amazing body! Other fans include Madonna, and we can all say Madonna's got a pretty fab body, esp for her age.

Bookworms can Travel Light, in Style


There have been quite a few reading devices made; however, the Kindle 2 just seems like a sleeker way to go. You can pretty much carry your library around in 10.2 ounces. You can download books anytime from the Kindle Store with it's 3G Wireless feature. Even though I prefer reading from a book, this does look like a good deal when I don't want to carry a 400 page book around...like Twilight... which I'd rather no one see me read... if I did have it..

All you early adopters can purchase it exclusively from Amazon.com for $359.

Happy April Fool's Day!



Hope you get to pull some fun jokes today :)

It's better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and leave no doubt. --Mark Twain

Music and Art Appreciators


If you're looking for a new stylish set of speakers to use with your iPod and to add a classy touch to your home, check out the Phonophone II. This ceramic iPod "accessory" by Tristan Zimmerman uses no external power or batteries yet is said to give a "rich and resonant sound." So if you've got $500 dollars lying around, why not spend it on something that is vintage, modern and pure art.
