From the Editors
Olympics 2008: Phelps Fever, Lightning Bolt
Michael Phelps is very famous. Here he is Mark Spitz-style on the cover of Sports Illustrated. SI Editor Terry McDonell said, "This is Michael going forward" (via Pink is the New Blog). Stet Sports Blog wishes that Phelps would have taken it a little further and kept his mustache. The Bastardly says, "Regardless of what he looks like, I'm pretty sure he can sleep with any chick on the planet right now. Bastard." Michael Phelps's mom is famous too! "Apparently all, or a good portion of her Beijing wardrobe is from Chico's," says Preppy Princess, and now Chico's actually has a "Debbie Phelps Collection" featured on its Web site's homepage. You can buy a Persian Luster Zariah Jacket or an Animal Sheen Collins Shirt and look just like Michael Phelps's mom. It's a great way to get closer to your goal of sleeping with Michael Phelps.
Online Music: Not Dead Yet
Online music fans disappointed by this week's RIAA shutdown of the mix-and-listen site Muxtape are migrating to 8tracks, a similar site that seems less rule-breaky. Says Light at the End of the Holland Tunnel: "Best thing about 8tracks--aside from all the great music--is that it's completely legal, taking advantage of some obscure provision from the DMCA." Ok, sure. Destructoid is thankful for the latest downloadable music for the video game Rock Band. Tracks include Devo's Girl U Want and Through Being Cool--"but even more exciting for me is the announcement that Duran Duran's Girls on Film and Rio will be available...Thank you to Harmonix for continually providing songs that will be a blast to play at parties (possibly while hammered)." Uh.. rock on!
