Britney Spears is back and better than ever


Britney Spears is back -- booyakasha! The early days of Britney, well I was not such a fan. But ever since Britney broke down and went crazy her music and image has grabbed my interest. Take the song "Piece of Me" for example. 

Here is the first verse:

I'm Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don't matter if I step on the scene or sneak away to the Philippines
They still gon' put pictures of my derriere in the magazine
You want a piece of me? You want a piece of me?

Finally Britney shed her former pristine image and owned up to the fact that being a celebrity is crazy. Now that's the Britney I like to see -- back from rehab, an awful buzz cut, and better than ever. "Blackout" was quite an impressive album. 

Her most recent album "Circus" is also rather amazing. The title song is currently one of my faves. 

Here is the first verse of "Circus":

There's only two types of people in the world
The ones that entertain and the ones that observe
Well baby, I'm a put-on-a-show kind of girl
Don't like the backseat, gotta be first

Who can't relate to that? These days Britney isn't the annoying people pleaser she once was; instead, she tells it like it is. And I for one am lovin' it! 

Where did that chair come from?

Have you ever noticed trash on the side of the highway? Recently, I've seen a wooden chair, part of a mattress, and a hitchhiker. Obviously I'm not surprised to see regular trash on the highway i.e., cans, wrappers, bags, etc. However, I can't help but wonder who is throwing out a chair? Seriously, who is driving at 60 mph and thinks to himself, "you know what, I think it is time to ditch this chair. I'm just gonna toss it out the window." Who does that?  Well clearly someone is doing it because I notice random pieces of trash all the time.
