Got ya Pegged?

What a difference between coming and going. Look for yourself. Just a "bit" of tension on the way to LA and a lighter mood when back in London. Is that a smile? What's the difference? Could it be that the business trip is done. Or is it the baggage he's lost? Imagine if he really lightened the load for good. Maybe just leave it on the carousel to keep running round and round on its own.

Looks like Ted is taking this whole business down a peg or two with his strongest statement about the whole thing. Whoa! He might be legally blond but he's sure not of fan of the other legally blonde. And we're not talking the new musical either. The mystery is what really did happen to cause this blond vs. blonde situation. Highlights?

But Jake isn't the only getting pegged because last night on One Tree Hill, Austin's Julian Baker is getting pegged as the very bad boy for this season. And it looks like he's gonna be very very bad. And that's in the very best way.

Missed the episode? Or for some want to watch him walk past the pool table one more time?

For those in the U.S. and Canada you can catch the whole episode at Fancast.com. (Last night's episode should be up by the end of the day) For those outside of U.S. - am turning to the super skills of Hjulia and Spooky for help.


Now you're own your own find all the rest of the meanings and uses for the word peg. But this one comes from the way back machine and a quirky little song from Rolf Harris.

I'm Jake the Peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With my extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
Wherever I go through rain and snow
The people always let me know
There's Jake the peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With his extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle



Today's its Austin's turn for Halloween costumes ideas and we go straight to the movies for inspiration. How could you not with such a cinephile.

First there's Pygar from Roger Vadim's 60's futuristic sci fi Barbarella. The blind and innocent angel Pygar who's seduced by a famous sibling from a Hollywood family (Jane Fonda) . And hey a heavenly creature with no shirt -that sounds like a mash up of a couple of Austin's projects. The advantage of this one is that Robert Rodriquez is remaking Barbarella and production has been pushed back to 2010 - Austin could celebrated Halloween and show what he's got for casting. One word of caution just don't show up at the studio and pull a Sean Young/Catwoman thing.

The other advantage? Heard something about a certain fellow who has a thing for birds -a goose particularly and well Pygar's got the feathers, wings and lives in a nest.

The other option? A Peter Sellers! Hey it was "Shot in the Dark". And it is the easiest costume since a Santa hat. Just a guy and a guitar - you just have to make sure that strap is securely fastened. Or would you have to? Talk about a G-string.
