First of all it must be nice to have perfect strangers love you the way the country loves Betty White. Then to have this resurgence of love for her at 88 and a half years old has to be sweet. What makes it really great is that it is not sympathy love, she is still every bit as funny today as she was 50 years ago (not tht i was around 50 years ago...lol). Betty I'm definitely a fan and I LOVE YOU TOO! keep on keepin on mama. Check her out yawl.

This is not art related per se, but it is pop-culture and definitely American culture. I've spent most of my life being around an incredibly diverse group of friends. Recently I realized that through career choices, moving cross country and my personal interests that my group of friends is not nearly as diverse as it once was. I think it's VERY important to have a diverse group of people around you at all times from different ages, races, sexual orientations and the like. It keeps you from becoming boxed in mentally, culturally and socially. Fear not that which is different because it allows you to see who you are and evaluate whether you want to stay who you are or try something different. If who you are is right for you and you're secure in it you wont change, but will have gained a new perspective on yourself and your choices.

Check out this video of the women from The View discussing this same topic as only they can.

I loved cartoons when I was a kid and I still like them now. When I watch them with adult eyes it's a WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE. I realize that some very creative and very subversive adults created them. Every now and then Imma drop some of these vintage cartoons in for you to enjoy and reflect upon.

I mean really...Bugs Bunny spent a lot of time in women's clothes and Snagglepuss wasn't exactly a jock. I wonder sometimes how much the entertainment we watched as a child influenced the kind of adults we've grown into. There's no way to ever know, but it is something to think about.

I am a big kid at heart and proud of it. I am also still very much a nerd and sci fi geek. One of my favorite shows is the Star Wars animated series The Clone Wars. If you get a chance you should check it out on Cartoon Network or you can visit the StarWars.com website to catch old episodes online. It great escapism and you can actually watch it with your kids too.

May the force be with you.

Check this out. If this aint Urban Pop madness I don't know what is.

Join RuPaul, the world's most famous drag queen, as the host, mentor and judge for "RuPaul's Drag Race," Logo's new reality series which will be the ultimate in drag queen competitions. The top 9 drag queens in the U.S. will vie for drag stardom as RuPaul, in full glamazon drag, will reign supreme in all judging and eliminations, while the debonair Mr. RuPaul will help guide the contestants as they prepare for each challenge. Contestants include the nation's hottest most glamorous drag queens, including one voted in by you online!

Each week, joining RuPaul on the judges panel, are fashion journalist and best-selling author Merle Ginsberg and Project Runway breakout star and designer Santino Rice, plus a bevy of celebrity guest judges including: Bob Mackie (Designer), Michelle Williams (Destiny's Child), Lucy Lawless (actress), Maria Conchita Alonso (actress/singer), Robin Antin (creator of The Pussycat Dolls), Debra Wilson (Mad TV), Jenny Shimizu (model/actress), Tori Spelling (actress), Dean McDermott (actor), Howard Bragman (Author of "Where's My Fifteen Minutes?") and Frank Gatson (choreographer).

Each cast member must embody the charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent that made RuPaul an international drag superstar. The judges will determine the bottom two contestants of the week. Those contestants then compete in a show-stopping battle-royal "lip-synch for your life" performance that will determine if they will "shante" and stay and who will "sashay" away until one is crowned America's next Drag Queen Superstar!

You can catch more of the show on Logo.com http://www.logoonline.com/shows/

Check out this visual art in the form of anime for television. Be aware it's a bit violent. I'm not usually into violence at all, but despite the violence the animation is beautiful and worthy of sharing with adults.
