TECH WATCH

In an effort to reach out to even more readers, we have decided every now and then to venture into the world of technology. Yes, technology. Oh, technology sounds boring to you? Well, my friends, technology is everywhere, whether you like it or not, so deal with it. I mean without technology, "Bitterness" wouldn't even exist. Forget about cable, without technology, you'd be watching dust collect on your window sill for entertainment, for pete sake! Without technology, we'd still be hunting woolly mammoths, so we could have dinner, as there would be no way for Hardee's to operate without any modern technology. Heat lamps, hello?! So as you can see, this technology thing is probably here to stay, so we here at "Bitterness" are gonna keep you updated on the latest innovations. So if they're coming out with a flying Yugo, you'll here all about it, right here. So what does the "Bitterness" technology department have to show us this week? Let's see:


The Microsoft Surface:



Finally a computer, that's also a coffee table! Awesome.

The Wii Fit:



Technology sure has come along way. We'd like to thank sarcasticgamer for our video this week, until next time, this has been "Tech Watch."

WHO'S LATER?

It's time for another installment in our on-going "Who's Later?" competition. The second match-up again comes from the entertainment industry. Today's "Who's Later?" match-up is between Bill Bellamy and David Alan Grier. You see both of these gentlemen have recently resurfaced in the world of entertainment, and for the life of us we cannot figure out why? So let's break it down for you:


Now DAG, as he is sometimes affectionately known, has sort of never left, I guess. I mean since "In Living Color", he starred in his own show, DAG, and has been a host of Comedy Central's Premuim Blend. So, I would say there's a good chance roughly 96% of the population hasn't seen DAG in like, I dunno, roughly a decade and a half? I should clarify that is 96% of people who watch television. But after years of leaving unreturned messages on James Carrey's answering machine, there he is hosting "Thank God You're Here", which his a whole nother post altogether. Now sure, DAG seeemed like he had an inkling of talent back in his "In Living Color" hey day, but his career, nosedived quickly when the Wayans clan moved on to making quality movies like White Chicks and several other movies we've never seen. Now once Damon Wayans refused to sign on for Men on Film: The Movie, we thought it may have been all over for big DAG, but he just would not stay down on the mat. But it seems David has gone to the Drew Carey School of TV Show Hosting. (The DCSoTSH is not a real school, so don't stop filling out those ITT Tech applications.) You see much like Drew, Mr. Grier seems to be the least funny part of his show, and needs to stop talking. But it was while watching "Thank God You're Here" that we found a TV personality we thought we had said "bye" to years ago. That's right the one and only.....




Bill Bellamy. Now one of the funny things about "Thank God You're Here"-and by funny, we actually mean weird funny, not "Ha-ha!" funny- is that it is not, as we originally thought, just for comedic actors. No, no. In fact talent is no, by any stretch of the imagination, a prerequisite. Enter William 'Bill' Bellamy. Now I think, when most of us think of BillBell, we think MTV Video Jockey, not to be confused with a Video Journalist like Kurt Loder. Now even then it was hard to determine where B-Squared's true talent lay. I mean was he even "now" in 199? in his VJ days? I mean Adam Curry, he is not! But seriously, what was he? Actor? Comedian? Singer? Token black guy? We have no clue! So, after he couldn't handle life in the Fastlane, he appears on "Thank God You're Here" and we're thinking "Okay it took a long time, but now we know. He's considered to be a thespian." But then, we start watching "Last Comic Standing"and what to our wondering eyes should appear, but '"Double B" as the host. The host, for crying out loud! This job is normally reserved for a comedian, so now we guess he's a comedian. But here's the thing: he is not a good actor and he's not funny. I mean what's next Matt Pinfield co-hosting "The View?" Well, that's another question for another time, but the question now is "who's later?" You decide.
