Cher is dead, long live Cher

Twitter has proven again that it is a force worth reckoning. This time the rumor that Cher had died was being tweeted like wildfire Thursday and Friday (Jan 26-27, 2012) until it was proved to be either a joke, prank or something else.

It goes to prove how much people will repeat something they read or heard even if they have no proof. Can you say politics?

Work It - Canceled by ABC

The TV show "Work It" has been put down. For failure to compete with the big dogs it has been hauled away by network control.

The TV show followed the likes of  "Some Like it Hot," Bosom Buddies" and a few others I can't remember the names of right now.

Work It, followed Last Man Standing in the TV schedule and quite frankly I thought was a good lead in. I actually liked the show.

It is now gone after only 2 episodes. ABC didn't even give the show a chance. Maybe it was too tame since Two and a Half Men relied more on sexually based jokes than Work It did.

ABC will now air Last Man Standing back to back for awhile until they figure out what their next move is. Just what I need more of "Tim the toolman Tailor does outdoor sports." I know that Tim Allen can do better than the same tired old "man cave" characters that he has played on TV but I guess he needs a paycheck.

Tired of the heat of summer yet?

Don't let the heat of summer get to you. Go watch some snow boarding videos or catch up with your favorite winter sports figure. Think COLD.

After you have finished watching those cold videos and reading those ski goggles reviews, wear those new ski goggles and check out the latest in what is coming to your TV this coming fall. No I am not talking about the new fall line-up but the winter sports that will starting soon. 

On the snow boarding gossip side, did you know that Cory Smith was doing some summer snow boarding. Yep he headed out to Mt. Hood near his home town of Portland, Oregon and had some summer fun. It is August and there is still plenty of snow on that mountain. No wonder he has plenty of chances to practice. He even boasted that he made some boards out of wood and tried them out. This summer in Oregon is reported to be the coldest on record and some of the ski resorts are still open. With highs only in the 80's it looks like there will be year-round skiing to be found there.

The domain name is gone

I saw no point in having a top level domain that spoke more about dogs than Hollywood gossip, so it is gone. Right now some dip shit bought it for a real estate website. All I can say is good luck with that one. I might be shopping around for another domain name for the blog, but I am in no hurry. After all, I still get the visitors and apparently Google has already re-indexed everything. So for now, this is still the official "Gossip Hound" until I play with the name.
