Quick bites of information to events in the world
The new Dell ad has the very melodious music of Kara Wiley's song - Colors. Believe it or not - the album is labeled as "Yoga for Children". But the music is anything but. Colors is definitely the best track on the album and can be bought from both Amazon.com as well as iTunes.com. But the best way to pick up this CD is through CDBaby, as you get all the songs for $15 and an illustrated booklet to help your kids do some yoga.

and the Dell Ad featuring the song.
Here are lyrics for the song - Colors.
I am green today
I chirp with joy like a cricket song.
I am gray today
Gloomy and down like a morning fog.
I am orange today
Loud and messy like finger paint on the wall.
I am red today
Hopping mad like a playground ball.
I am black today
Strong and tall a great big bear.
I am purple today
Bright and happy like a butterfly in the air.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world are in me.
I am yellow today
I shine my light out like the sun.
I am white today
Soft and quite like new snow.
I am blue today
Calm as glass and cool like the sea.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world.
I'm a rainbow today
All the colors of the world are in me.
All the colors of the world are in me.
Jack Hody Johnson (born May 18, 1975) is a Hawaii-born singer-songwriter, musician, filmmaker, and surfer who achieved commercial success and a dedicated following, after the release of his debut album, Brushfire Fairytales in 2001. He has since released four more albums and a number of EPs. His music is best described as acoustic/soft rock.
Jack Johnson learned how to surf and skate from his father's best friend Alex Conell. Johnson learned to play the guitar at age of fourteen. He was a professional surfer until an accident at Pipeline in which his front teeth were knocked out and he received more than 150 stitches. Although that is when most people believe he changed from a surfer to an artist, in a recent Rolling Stone cover story (March 6, 2008) he stated that it actually happened a week before in the finals of the trials of the Pipeline Masters at Sunset Beach on Oahu. At the age of 17 he became the youngest competitor to ever reach the finals. Jack was eventually disqualified after failing to catch three waves. Jack realized that the competitiveness was too much for him, "guys were ready to kill each other to catch the next wave," Johnson remembers. The accident allowed time for Jack to start on his new passions, the guitar and making music. He stated about the accident, "I like to joke that I hit my head so hard that that's why I'm so mellow, but I think it did mellow me out." While he was recovering in bed, he spent his time writing songs and playing guitar. However, Johnson didn't seriously pursue a career in the arts until his college years at the University of California, Santa Barbara. While in school, he met his wife Kim, for whom the song Do You Remember is written.Johnson also played rhythm guitar for the party band "Soil," and graduated with a degree in film.

A male Britney Spears impersonator named Derrick Barry came on to the stage of "Americas got talent" looking fierce. The current day Britney surely wishes she looked as good as this guys does while impersonating her. Derrick does his drag act while singing to “Toxic.” Piers was not amused, but the other judges and most of the audience seemed to enjoy the drag act. maybe we are all just starved for the original Britney that we'll enjoy anything we can get. With 2 thumbs up - the faux Britney gets a ticket to Las Vegas.
Say what? That's a dude . . . and he's in better shape than the really Britney Spears. The guy's name is Derrick Barry and shocked the judges on America's Got Talent when he/she walked out on stage and gave his performance. Former TV hunk David Hasselhoff is obviously smitten . . . and confused sexually by what he sees. In the end, they vote Derrick on to the next round in Las Vegas and the crowd goes wild!
