My heart goes out to you. I cannot imagine what it is like to lose a husband of a year and a half to unknown causes. It must be awful to be picking out a casket at the age of 25, instead of picking out a crib.

This letter is an attempt to help make you feel better. I hope you get through this unimaginable pain.

I would like you to know that me, and possibly the rest of Buzznet, have nothing but sympathy for you and you are in all our prayers and thoughts.

I pray and hope that you get through this hard time, and live the way Casey would want you to. I imagine Casey would want you to live your life the best you could without him. I have never met him, but from what I have heard, I believe this is what he would want.

Remember you are in the thoughts of many. I pray everything works out.

Sorry it's short today.

Santa* has trouble with his list. So I thought it'd be nice of Buzznet to help him out! (Plus, knowing that guy, he'd probably give a SWEET reward!) So, you guys need to nominate which celebrity was nicest, naughtiest, etc.
When I mean nicest, I mean actually did some good deeds this year, was a sweet guy/girl, etc. Not just who you think is hot. And even though Ashlee Simpson was annoying this year, don't nominate her for naughty lists just cause your jealous of who she is dating. This is the same for any other celebrity and/or their partners.
Now, here are the categories. The ultimate nicey or naughty will get a huge reward/lump of coal, while the runner-ups get a smaller reward/smaller lump of coal. Well, at least in our imaginations they do.
Here are the categories:

1. Nicest Male Musician
2. Naughtiest Male Musician
3. Nicest Female Musician
4. Naughtiest Female Musician
5. Nicest Male Actor
6. Naughtiest Male Actor
7. Nicest Female Actress
8. Naughtiest Female Actress
9. Nicest Celebutaunte**
10. Naughtiest Celebutaunte
11. Best Transformation from Naughty to Nice
12. Best Transformation from Nice to Naughty
13. Nicest this year overall
14. Naughtiest this year overall

*I do know for a fact Santa does not exist, but let's just have some fun this Christmas, since The Academy Is... won't cooperate and put out the Christmas album.
**A celebutaunte is someone who is famous for being famous.

Thank you for helping St. Nick! Now get to nominating!

Tired of the usual Jessica Simpson or Mariah Carey Christmas album? Want to hear an alt-rock version of "Winter Wonderland"? Well, I feel the same way. I present you with my list of musicians that need to come out with a Christmas album. Now, those mentioned, get to the studio ASAP!

(in alphabetical order)

The Academy Is...

With Michael2's (that's squared, as in both Mike and Michael) sick guitar skill, Butcher's mad drumming skills, Sisky's bass skills, and Willia'm voice, this would be one of the greatest Christmas albums ever. Plus, William in a Santa Hat? Sigh...

Amy Winehouse

Admit it. You want to hear that voice sing "Jingle Bell Rock" and you favorite Christmas songs. Now if only she'd show up for her performances...

Armor For Sleep

Ben Jorgenson singing with PJ DeCicco's insane guitars? Perfect soundtrack for your holiday!

Boys Like Girls

Even though Martin may not be able to pen his own little Christmas diddy that could give "Jingle Bells" for its money, how's about they parody it instead? And none of that "Jingle Bells, _______ smells" garbage.

Cobra Starship

Face it. You want to freaking dance this Christmas. You want to hear Gabe Saporta's voice, Vicky T.'s keytar and Ryland's guitar pump through your speakers this Christmas. And when I mean dance, I do not mean swing dance. Oh I'm ready for it. So BRING IT!

Fall Out Boy

Don't you wanna hear Patrick's sweet tenderly voice sing "Silent Night", and hear their pop-punk version of "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree"? Now boys, since you want to be always coming out with a new album, I suggest this be your new album. GET ON IT!

Gwen Stefani

Gwen, darling, why limit your Christmas jingles to Kingston? Let the world hear you sing Christmas songs! And plus, wouldn't we all love to hear Gwen and Gavin duet on "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow" or "Baby, It's Cold Outside"? That would wind me up.

Gym Class Heroes

Travis' rhymes, Matt's drums, Eric's bass and Disashi's guitars should be rocking your speakers this Christmas, right? Not Jessica Simpson singing a painful version of "Jingle Bell Rock", right? We should campaign for this.

The Hush Sound

Greta and Bob's voice on a duet of "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow"? Wouldn't that be just the most perfect thing ever? I think so.

Kanye West

He must've spent years rhyming with his mom at Christmas. He should make a Christmas in honor of her death. She would be proud.

Lily Allen

How sick would a Lily Allen Christmas song be? Like, seriously. That would just be genious! And she should also Christmas song. I mean, little kids might be able to sing it, but it'd still be awesome.

My Chemical Romance

Gerard Way's voice singing "Angels We Have Heard on High" whilst Ray Toro and Frank Iero shred through and Bob Bryar monsters his way through. A beautiful performance of it, wouldn't it be? ANd that'd be only one song. Imagine the whole album.

Paramore

Haven't you heard Hayley Williams sing, and just thought "That girl needs to be singing Christmas songs."? Okay, you might not've, but I would love to hear Hayley scream out her version of classic Christmas songs, such as "Deck the Halls" or "Little Drummer Boy". Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum Zac. Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum.

Underoath

Wouldn't you love to hear Spencer Chaimberlain scream "Angels We Have Heard on High", "We Three Kings of Orient Are" and other Christian Christmas songs? You know Jesus would love it, along with you.

Vanessa Carlton

I think she'd make a great Christmas album. I just love her. She can play piano real well, and it would be great to hear her sing "Carol of the Bells".

Disagree with my choices? Tell me who you want to come out with a Christmas album below!

Thank you for reading this!

Song of the day: "The Truth About Heaven" by Armor For Sleep

Since IBBB is on vacation, I decided to take matters into my own hand and recap The Hills. Yes, it will suck.

"With This Ring..."

Heidi and Spencer discuss wedding plans. "I think it's time we set a date for our wedding." Heidi gushed to Spencer. His dumbass reply? "I say we elope to Cabo." What? Cabo? Are you on drugs?
I love the look Heidi gave Spencer after he said that. Hilarious!

*Theme Song*

Lauren and Audrina are physically figthing! Chill out, they're just working out while the trainer gropes Whitney.
The girls decide to go to Big Wangs, some sports bar, with Jarett, their personal trainer. Then they gossip about it afterwards at Elixir Cafe.
So Whitney's back in the game. Yay! Let's watch her fight!
Freeze frame! Spencer. In a church. Not even kidding. So continue your laughs while I continue recapping.
Spencer starts singing "Here Comes the Bride". He's an awful singer. Someone should give him a record deal. He can't rap, and he can't sing, just like any other pop star.
Hahahaha! Pre-marital counselling! And it's required! Funny joke you scabs! Funny! But the union could do better...
Whitney is wearing a pink dress and tights to a sports bar. Um...no comment.
Lauren snoops through Whitney's stuff! I think that's the only scene revolving around Lauren this episode. Hello, scabs! Lauren is the star! Gr...they need to bring back the Union. AT least they understood how to write.
Jarett groped Whitney again. Wow...guys are perverts.
Whitney has another date set with Jarrett. Or a one-on-one session. Whichever you prefer.

*Commercial break*

Whitney and Jarrett are hiking to the top of a hill, mountain, whatever. Dude is seriously wearing her out. By the end of the date, Whitney will have a heart attack! And Jarrett will grope her unconscious body.
Jumping jacks? You two just got to the top of a big hill. And now you're going to kill yourself even more?
Well, at least he finally let Whitney rest. And look at the famous "Hollywood" sign.
They make ANOTHER date to get some drinks. Three dates in ONE episode! Geez.
Heidi and Spencer are in their apartment discussing the wedding. Spencer asks, "Where do you buy bride magazines, by the way?" Same place you buy your ass cream. The grocery store. And why would he want to know? Ooo...I'm detecting foreshadowing...*
They can get china with their names on it. How about they get china that says "Heidi and Spencer: Together For Now"
Whitney says first dates can be really uncomfortable. You mean third dates? Right?
Whitney and Jarrett go to La Cantina. "Cheers. To having fun. Cheers. To dancing in a couple hours. Cheers. To being single. Cheers. To my dog dying."
He seems enthusiastic to know what her horoscope sign is. Why? You tell me!**
Two suitcases packed at Spencer and Heidi's apartment. Why?
"Surprise! We're going to Vegas to get married! Surprise! I'm a woman."*
"I got us the honeymoon suite." Is that really gonna bribe her? Wow...
He already paid for this! Hahahahahaha! Sucker!
Heidi wonders why Spencer doesn't care what she wants. Heidi! Wake up! He doesn't care about anyone! He's Spencer, who wants to be President someday! Of course he doesn't care about anyone but himself!
"We're not fighting about our wedding. We're fighting about wedding planning." Is there a difference, Spencer? By the way, good luck in polotics. You're gonna need it.
Heidi returns the ring to Spencer. Dun-dun-dun-dun.
Spencer takes the ring and his suitcase and leaves. YES!

*Commercial break*

Heidi vents to Kimberly. Gr...Kimberly could never be Heidi. There is no other Elodie! None! You hear me! None! I miss you Elodie...
Heidi is upset that Spencer left. Heidi, don't be upset! This is perfect! Now you and Lauren can be friends again! Yay!
Lauren and Whitney talk about her date at M Cafe. Whitney says her date was "comfortable". Um...weird...that's the only description you could use? How about "cheery"?
Whitney didn't like his shoes...so now they're not meant to be. Sweetite, I knew that by the minute he said, "Cheers."
Lauren teaches Whitney how to duck kissing. WHitney thinks it's awkward. I think it's funny. A new dance craze.
Heidi is back at her apartment, cutting vegetables, and pretending they were her wrist. So emo... You may not have detected it, but I detected some serious emo-ness within her.
Spencer's back. Joy. He went to his parents. And he brought flowers. Cliche.
Spencer apologizes. And he sound slike an actor reading a script. Yep. Another sign The Hills is fake.
But no, seriously. That did sound like a half-hearted apology.
No more surprises? Sure...
So he left, Heidi! That's a good thing!
They play Alicia Keys' "No One" as they cuddle. Cliche. Again.

Next time on...The Hills

Spencer has a sister who points out the obvious, "Heidi is my family now. When you hate my brother, it makes me hate you." Gee...harsh. People hate my brother and I'm friends with some of those people. Justin Bobby cheates on Audrina with a girl that looks like a man. Poor girl.

TAITV: The Chronicles of Mike Carden: Part 1

Song of the day: "Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year" by Fall Out Boy featuring William Beckett.

First, let's start off with why I decided to do this. I remember when I first signed up with Buzznet, when I logged in, there would always be the Daily Buzz by Bree, aka breesays. A witty take on the day's top stories. I miss them. Second, this is a bit sloppy, seeing as this is my first time linking, so don't get angry at me! Thanks! Now for the Buzz:

Fight of the Style Titans: Victoria Beckham vs. Rachel Zoe (Galadarling)

Song of the day: "Sunrise Sunset" by New Years Day

There is so much fakery in the Hills, and all the evidence brought forth by gossip blogs and tabloids. It's hard to comprehend all the information, right?
No worries! Here is all the evidence you need of The Hills' fake-ness.

1. 1. It took Lauren "LC" Conrad FIVE takes to order dinner. And they set up lights and cameras outside the resteraunt. (FIVE? How hard is it to say, '"I'll have the chicken fried steak.") {Celebslam}
2. They shot a scene of Heidi Montag kissing Spencer "Steve Sanders" Pratt good-bye as she left. Five minutes later, she "came back" from her trip and greeted Spencer in baggage claim at the airport. {Celebslam}
3. Gavin Beasley, Lauren's model date in one episode, did an interview with Best Week Ever where he admitted the show is fake. (Even though he was only on for like, one episode? Way to go, Beasley)
4. Executive producer/creator Adam DiVello, admits The confrontation at Ketchup was faked.
5. Rumours surface that Steve Sanders and Heidi will fake a break-up, where Heidi will pack her things, say she wants to focus on her career, says she doesn't have time to plan a wedding, and accuse Spencer of infidelity! (suh-weet!) {BuddyTV}
6. According to In Touch magazine (correct me if I'm wrong!), Lauren doesn't work at Teen Vogue, Speidi lives with his parents, and the producers told Audrina to hook back up with Justin Bobby. (Of course, I mean would you hook up with him if there wasn't money offered?)
7. E! Online reported that Speidi were casting key roles for their wedding. (By the way, Heidi, I will so be your maid of honor, if I get some decent screen time, like, about more than Steve Sanders should be fair?)
8. Roxy Olin is cast to play the Maid of Honor in their wedding (Damn Roxy! She stole my part!)
9. Lauren and Heidi were spotted hanging out together. An onlooker says Heidi was spotted coming out of Lauren's aprtment on Halloween weekend. (Because, of course, it's easier to forgive someone if they're a different person (literally)) {Star magazine}
10. In an episode where Heidi and Steve Sanders spend her birthday, they claim to be in Los Angeles at a resteraunt on a dinner of the two of them. However, only a month ago, Just Jared reported that Speidi spent her birthday in Las Vegas at LAX, where she performed her single, "Higher". Also, Lauren's fashion line came out the same day as Heidi's birthday in reality, but on the show, Lauren had to work the Young Hollywood party on Heidi's birthday.
11. And now recently, IBBB spotted that when Lauren recieved Heidi's IM, the time says "5:45", when usually people are home, not at work.

I am sure there is much more, but seriously, the limit of evidence of fakery is 5, then you must admit to the show being staged. They have 11 EVIDENCE! More than half the limit! Come on, LC, 'fess up!

First, here's Sarah's excellent half:

Plicking and plucking. One of the many reasons I believe I am still single is because I don’t wear make up or dress up every second. And I don’t feel the need to because its who I am and how I am comfy and I’d rather have someone after my brain. Yet, if I had a boyfriend I shall be worried about impressions on his friends. Constantly nagged to look good and not up to standards…..I can be a slob without the worry! No, YOU hang up. Okay so I am bad as it is when it comes to phone conversations. I stutter, I splurt and I get distracted when Fall Out Boy come on my TV screen and I want to idolize Patrick. However, when it comes to relationships it seems that every minute is filled with idol chit chat about nothing. Picky partners who want to know your every move with every single minute filled with your now annoying phone tune. “Hey how are you?” followed shortly by “what are you up to?” and then ending in the dreaded “no you hang up.” For the sake of it, just hang up when you say bye. Or for the better, my phone is constantly off hook. Happy 1000th second anniversary! As I look up at my blank calendar I sigh with relief. No need to buy presents for anniversaries, birthdays OR Christmas (well there is the family and friends but I am not looking at boxers or lingerie just yet.) Believe me, the amount of money in letting a spouse or partner no how much I love them. Really? Its all a con from card companies and anything loving and cheap is better. Also, those bright orange chunky trainers I’ve been drooling over, are mine. They make better lovers anyway…………… You like the sound of that, wait till you hear my phone number… Ah man I love cheesy chat up lines. And who doesn’t? Any attention from a man or woman really is great. However, I like keeping it like that, attention. I don’t want to feel guilty for having flirting with the sexy man who brought you a drink. In fact, being single means I have plenty of drinks without having a jealous green eyed monster on my case about it. I can bump and grind without the words “I have a boyfriend” AND I love flirting….. Prince Charming to Frog You know how it goes; that guy you have been eying up on the train journey to work smiles at you. Your heart flips. He comes over all swaggering and lays on heavy thick charm that makes you drop eggs in an instant. First date goes great….. he pays for everything and there are even cupids……… One month later…… that guy is replaced by a complete beast of a man. Who farts on cue, lazing around with a beer and always out with his mates. At least being single, I get to keep charming one date guy…… *sighs* without the cons…..

now, for my half:

I can flirt/check out guys
When you're dating someone, you can't flirt with a guy or check out someone without getting some dissaproving look from your partner.

More time with my friends
I love my friends. Whether they're girls or guys, they can be fun, caring, some of the best people around. And with a guy, I spend mucj less time with them, and more time with him, and I begin to miss the inside jokes, and someone I can talk to about girly problems.

I can drool at William Beckett and Patrick Stump without the guilt.
Guys and girls do not want to hear which celebrity their partner thinks is hot. And with a boyfriend, I can't drool at Bill and Trick without that inner conscious who sounds like my boyfriend saying "You have a boyfriend!", and it interrupts my little fantasies...and I do not like that.

I can use my money for something other than dates and gifts.
Let's see, what do you spend your money on in relationships? You have to buy anniversary gifts, an "I love you" present, Christmas presents, half-birthday presents, Valentine's day presents, and now we're discussing the cost of dates. A movie theater ticket is about $8, and a matinee is only $6. And we're not even discussing fancy resteraunts! Wallet hurting much?

Overall, freedom.
In a lot of relationships, you can't even breathe without the approval of your partner. I've seen a lot of my friends, who are in relationships where they completely change themselves to approve their partner. Like one of my friends, who once he got a girlfriend, he quit hugging people, and he was a hug-a-holic without a girlfriend.

So this Thanksgiving, be thankful for the finer things in life, such as a charming one-date Prince Charming and the extra moolah you have in your back pocket.

The parties.
The babes/dudes.
The fame.
The fortune.
These seem like good reasons to have a reality show, right?
Sure, but I have even better reasons why you should be glad you don't have a reality show. I present them to you, with some lovely pictures from The Hills, Rock of Love, The Real World Denver, The Real World Key West, Flavor of Love and Laguna Beach to accompany my reasons.

1. I can call a friend with out it being some scandal.

2. I don't ever have to talk to my enemies, EVER again.

3. I don't have to date Spencer

Lacey (or as I call her, New Jersey)

Justin Bobby

or New York.

4. Ah, the privacy.


5. I don't have to have a crappy reunion special.

6. I can save FUI (Fighting Under the Influence) for those who deserve it.

7. The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus don't have to bitch at me over a stupid pair of pants.

8. Privacy

9. Jen Bunney isn't "macking it" with a guy I like.

10. I don't have to bunk with New Jersey.


11. Pumkin isn't spitting on me.

12. Cliche birthdays.

13. Did I mention privacy?

14. No awkward situations (i.e. having uptight parents meet rockstar boyfriend I've been sleeping with for the past two months, third wheeling with an ex, meeting ex's new flame that he is engaged after we split up two months ago.)

15. No cameras to witness embarrassing moments, breakdowns, etc.

Dear William Beckett,

      You look a little hungry. Why don’t you come to the city of Longview in the state of Washington, and I could take you out to eat.

       Our only claim to fame is having Green Day name a song after us, and Meagan Hallin, who was a featured extra in the movie, Shopgirl. But, there is some good places to eat here in this little town. Why don’t you stop on by I could take you to these places (you know, like, a date?)

            Pizza Schmizza

Location: 100 Triangle Center #140, Longview

This place has a good pizza. They make their pizza in a New York style, and have great cheese pizza, but I’m sure you would like the “Pizza SchMEATza” which is chock full of meat. They also give discounts to high-school students, if they show a valid ASB card, so, I could get you a discount. They also serve salads and dipsticks. And the atmosphere and décor is so homey.

            WinCo

Location: WinCo Foods #51 120 Triangle Center, Longview

I know it’s a grocery store, but they have a pizza place inside there, which serves some of the best pizza place. Me and one of my best friends come here literally on a daily basis for a slice of pizza and a drink. And you can also get Cheez-Its, chips, chocolate, and there’s the deli that serves sandwiches, chicken, and other deli things. Even though there is no place to sit, and outside, there’s a bunch of potheads, but the pizza is GREAT!

            Sunrise Bagels

Location: 503 Allen Street, Kelso

Even though Sunrise closes at 4:00 PM, they make excellent Cheese Bagel Sticks to make up for it. They also make Bagizzas (a bagel-pizza), Doggel (hot dog-bagel), salads, bagel sticks, and of course, the classic Bagel. They also offer free Internet connection, so you can IM Petey.

            The Masthead

Location: 2010 Ocean Beach Hwy, Longview

This is a rare place that can be casual, yet fancy. You can take your date or even Mom here, while throwing down a few beers. They have excellent Gardenburgers, mozzarella sticks, and chicken strips, but they are famous for their Fish & Chips. And you have a choice eating outside, or inside. But I’d usually choose inside, because of the climate in Washington. Overall, it’s a great place to date.

 I hope you read this, and decide to come with me to let me get you something to eat. And if you need a place to stay, I know an excellent place with some class, history, with a modern feel. It’s called my bedroom. IT even has the historic computer where I wrote this!

 Again, thanks for reading. I hope you accept my offer.

 Love from,

      Brittany

P.S. This isn't the letter I'd hoped it to be, with pictures and things, but it's good enough.
P.P.S. I'm sure other people reading this have other favorite places to eat in their hometown.
