Arnold going Green

Arnold is going green and no he isn't going to be the next Incredible Hulk. In a recent article, our governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger was photographed riding bikes with his bodyguards. He must have been taking a break from the tiring task of running the state of California. Maybe he can go biking with President Barack Obama when he visits.

You have just been Rickrolled

For those of you that do not know, there is a funny internet phenomena out there called "Rickrolling". It involves teasing a person with a link to video they want to see (such as a scene from an upcoming movie or a special sports event), but actually giving them the link to the music video for the Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". Another variation of Rick Rolling just involves the song playing in the background.

The Rick Roll has become so prevalent that Rick Astley was nominated for the Best Act Ever at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2008. The song has also gained some notoriety among New York Mets fans. In 2008, the team was holding an online election for a team song and a massive amount of voters wrote in the Rick Astley song. Even though it was a number one vote getter, it was not selected by the Mets.

Even our president is not immune to this. During the election, someone created a Barack Roll. And now without further delay our 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama and Mr. Rick Astley.
