“That’s My Bush” Contest by amit

“That’s My Bush” came from the minds of “South Park” co-creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Though the show only had an 8 episode run on Comedy Central in 2001, it left an indelible mark on what a dunce our current president really is. Thankfully, next Tuesday you’ll be able to relive the entire series through the release of a snazzy DVD compilation. But why buy it? Win it! Starting now, C&V’s hosting a contest to win your very own copy of the DVD thanks to our buds over at Comedy Central. All you have to do comment below with the funniest (real) “Bush-ism” from his 6 year run of presidenting. The contest ends 10/27. Good luck!

“That’s My Bush” hits shelves October 24, 2006.

Note: Please include your email address, which will stay hidden from the world, so we can contact you if you’re a winner.

Same quality as The Godfather trilogy DVD

A-List Grocery Lists by amit

We all know celebrities have diamond studded swimming pools full of money. That’s half the horror of being rich and famous. And, sadly, we can’t get enough of who they date, where they live, and, apparently now, what’s on their grocery lists. Fresh Direct, an online food delivery service in New York City, is publishing grocery lists of their celebrity customers. They hope to open the fridge and shed a small white light for normal people and the guy who played Buddy Lembeck on “Charles in Charge” what those with “F-You money” eat. But does anyone give a hoot that Cynthia Nixon, the red-headed meerkat look alike from “Sex and the City,” nibbles down Tobago Wild Blackfin Tuna Loin? Nope. Nor do we care that hardcore writer/racists director, Spike Lee, only eats New England Fresh, Grade A Large Brown Eggs. Wait, brown eggs Spikey? Someone likes his omelets topped with jungle fever. Either way, I’d rather read that Nicollette Sheridan, the personification of “botched plastic surgery,” only orders foods high in preservatives like sodium benzoate and drinks cooking sherry to numb the pain of knowing she’s married to Michael Bolton. C’mon Fresh Direct, spill the beans on the racy grocery lists. America’s hungry for some real meat. You can omit why Clay Aiken insists on ordering phallic shaped fruits and vegetables though.

“Family Guy” Art Show by amit

Next month, the Los Angeles Museum of Radio and Television will be home to art works inspired by the hit animated series “Family Guy.” The showing, titled “What the Deuce Are You Staring At!?! A Collection of Interpretive Work Inspired by ‘Family Guy’,” will be made up of 21 pieces created to pay tribute to several characters from the mastermind of Seth MacFarlane. The art will span several mediums from oil paintings to collages and some of the titles include: “Stewie’s Inner Demon” and “A Possessed Peter Finds the Magic Marigold.” The artists behind the work come from a 1970’s “lowbrow pop art movement” for comic books and punk rock that started in Southern California. The exhibit opens November 8th and will run for 10 weeks before embarking a world tour. The art show also hopes to hype the release of the “Family Guy: Volume 3″ DVD due out late next month.

Roger Daltrey Does “CSI” by amit

It seems music talents and the non-talents alike (K-Fed appears this week and receives a much needed punch to the stomach) are flocking to the crime/mystery thriller mega-hit, “CSI.” The Who’s Roger Daltrey will appear on an upcoming episode “in a surprise role that will keep viewers guessing.” Probably guessing why fellow band member, Pete Townshend, was “researching” kiddie pr0n. There’s a crime scene that needs some real investigating. No word on when Roger’s cameo will air.
