I think we all knew it was going to be a death that was sooner rather than later but it still is surreal and sad knowing that Amy Winehouse is dead.
While we've had our share of poking fun of Ms. Winehouse here at the HOchieS blog and while her musical style was not to my taste, I acknowledged her talent and H1 and I still hoped that she would get it together to let that talent continue to shine.
MC and Frass, don't cry.

One Step Closer to Trolldom
Amy Winehouse Diagnosed with Skin Disease
Originally posted Monday March 03, 2008 07:30 AM EST
What's up with those bumps on Amy Winehouse's face? The singer has been diagnosed with impetigo, her spokesman confirms to PEOPLE.
It's a bacterial skin infection that causes pimple-like lumps – and is "is highly contagious, and scratching or touching the sores is likely to spread the infection to other parts of the body as well as to other people," according to the Mayo Clinic's Web site.
And yes, Winehouse, 24, had been prescribed drugs ... in the form of antibiotics.
As for how the singer's feeling, "She's fine," a pal tells PEOPLE. "She's not hiding away. She's never been one to care what people think."

So now we know if she turns black, let's guess...it's the skin disease right?
Alright, Amy Jackson.

Happy Halloween!
Ahahahahaha.
Ah, the grading will go down later today but I'm certain that will be the most frightful thing anyone will see today.
Unfortunately, since there's no costume, we cannot grade on just being a natural:

What the Hell?
The Troll actually looks pretty...decent.
Sad yet endearing. Kind of like this -
Not the legs though, just the face in both cases. Just the face.

The Tokyo-Ho Japan Chronicles - Day 1.5
Yes. Tokyo-Ho has returned.
Let the slew of blogs begin!
Day 1.5 - Saturday May 26 (New York Time)/Sunday May 27 (Tokyo Time)
We will start with the incident at the airport while waiting for our departing flight to Japan. Before I continue, it should be noted that you all should expect many 'incidents' because as you all know by now, when Beetchie and I are together, we have some mini and some not so mini-misadventures.
The incident involved Beetchie kicking a Japanese flight attendant, too polite to cry out in pain but could only utter a muffled "ya ta ta" while hopping on one foot. We're not sure though if Amy Winehouse the Flight Attendant lost that tooth due to meth. use or after she was kicked.
Japan Airlines, I must say, has crap in-flight entertainment (and not just because I almost destroyed my in-flight entertainment remote control by getting it stuck on the side and later on destroying my fingers trying to get it out). Being affiliated with American Airlines will probably do that to you though. And here's hoping that Virgin Atlantic does not screw me over come Thursday (after I boasted about it for months).
The food sucked and was questionable, and we're convinced gave me the belly heebie jeebies. Ugh, it was not good times.
As you can well imagine, getting off the near 14 hour gruelling flight of bad food, bad entertainment and broken sleep, with a heebie jeebie belly was not fun. And then to discover that the nearest bathrooms were Eastern style,
was also not fun.
We needed to find that Oakhotel Inn quickly while navigating the Subway system but thanks to a Subway Smart NYC kid Beetchie, we were able to get our bearings and find our way to the Oakhotel without much trouble.
Oakhotel Inn was cute. We now value the greatness of private bath so much more but we were still naive to that reality being that we had no idea how much that place spoilt us until Day 5 of the trip. More to come in that future blog post...
Quote of that Day:
"I'll get used to it..." - Or 2, everytime a train on the other track passed the limited express from Narita Airport. I'm not sure if I got used to the sound of another train 'hitting' our train as it passed by but if you heard that sound that came out of no where, you'd be unnerved as well.
Things We Observed in Japan - Volume I:
1. The multi-coloured roof tops of Japanese houses on the way from Narita Airport to Tokyo Central was very awesome. There's nothing wrong with a blue-roof.
2. The Japanese and their subway order. They have arrows pointing to what side you should be on when walking through the subway platforms. For instance, if you're going up the stairs, you should stay on the left. We of course, walked through people instead of with them and confused those poor Japanese greatly. "Stupid Americans!" is what I'm sure they were thinking.
3. The Japanese's insistence on staring at me because I'm brown. Beetchie thinks I may have confused them some with my asian features yet big, wavy hair. I especially didn't like that one little child who get staring at me. So he knew no better but still. It was unnerving.
4. The toilets. The toilets had incredible flushing power which is always a concern for me. But not only that, they all have two settings for flushing! To the left for a big flush and to the right for smaller business. I always flushed to the left because of my fear of clogged toilets, even if my business was small.
5. Another toilet observation - the toilet paper's perforations are singled out at either 2 squares or 4 squares and never 1.
6. Beetchie smells like an Asian pear, which surprisingly smells just like watermelon jolly ranchers.
The Day's Eats:
We got our food ticket and paid for the meal out of a vending machine. Those things are quite popular and luckily for us they all had pictures on it so we had a fair idea of what we were in for.
I had fried pork cutlet and shrimp tempura with limitless access to rice, and miso soup.

In The Next Five Years
The HOchies predict that Amy Winehouse will age a like so -
(troll source: thirdwayblog.com)
Then, there'll be some kind of rehab, after being dragged there kicking and screaming, and will balloon into this after a 2 day stint -
(troll source: littleshavers.com)
Yeah. That's how it's going to be. We're pretty sure after seeing the state of things now.

Why. Why. Why.
This is the first of the Random Posts for tonight. We were on a roll today. But why is it about Amy Winehouse. Again?
Maybe it had something to do with what dlisted.com was reporting, something about rumours thus far are that the DAAWD (Diseased Alcoholic Anorexic Whore Druggie) - (for those of you not keeping track of our assessment of her) may appear in the next Bond movie.
And the conversation that ensued -
H1: ewwwww
Or 2: ew, what?
H1: http://dlisted.com/node/9622 (this will take you to the article)
Or 2: is this going to upset me? .... She'll die before that happens. She'll die before she's made Bond Girl.
H1: her feet are huuuuge
Or 2: her feet are as large as her head. She looks like something that crawled out of a mossy, dead tree stump. A troll? Yeah, that's it.

TD5. You REALLY need to stop.

Two Messes
We were watching the Brit awards and let us just say to TD5,
Amy Winehouse is a hot damned mess. That's not what we really wanted to say because that's been pretty well-established already but you know when Joss Stone did her style, we hated it then and we hate it now still. Winehouse should stop trying to bring it back.
The other mess is Joss Stone, who for some reason was trying to show that she could sing Winehouse's rehab song. Yeah, we know you can sing it. What are you trying to prove? So people have forgotten that you did it two years ago, but you shouldn't try to show that other betch up by dressing like a Nasty found in the East End back in the day.
