The song I can’t get out of my head
Brought to you, randomly, by Fox Searchlight. As a video for Little Miss Sunshine. Weird.
Still, enjoy: “Coming Home”, by my new favorite band, The 88.

Ridiculous (but completely seasonable) cold, prescription sunglasses that have become my life-line, finally realizing that someone I thought was a close friend is actually someone who probably doesn’t give two shits about me. A common-ish occurrence in my life, actually. Or, the what other people consider ‘caring’ is so different from what I consider ‘caring’ that they will just never measure up. Meh, it’s just further proof that the plan I have brewing is the right one.
Anyway, we need to laugh more. So let’s watch the How I Met Your Mother Season 2 Gag Reel, shall we? Good idea!

Comments Off Not Just a Kickass Cheap Trick Song
My friend Rachel always finds cool stuff online, and this one is no exception. It’s a video of an interactive art installation that was at MoMA last year. By using the data pulled from online dating sites around the world, the piece chronicles the search for love and self, online.
That’s right, way more people than you thought are still wookin’ pa nub. Cold comfort on an even colder January day, I guess. But still a really cool video. Check it out!

Comments Off New Bruce!
While I don’t love this song as much as I loved everything on “Magic”, “Life Itself” appears to be a harbinger of another solid Bruce record. And I can be happy with solid records from the man who gave us “The River”. And “Nebraska”. And “Born in the U.S.A.”

Child elopers’ Africa plan foiled
My favorite bit: “The young couple were “very much in love” and had decided to get married in Africa “where it is warm”, police spokesman Holger Jureczko told the AFP news agency. “

Comments Off How to score with chicks
If you’re looking for a surefire way to score with the ladies, awkwardly speak singing to any song (particularly “Lady” by Styx) might not be the best way to do it. But if she can get over the awkwardness and you can laugh about it, maybe after that you can get some action.
Also, how did this show get cancelled? Oh yeah. NBC buried it on SATURDAY NIGHTS.

Comments Off It's all on you, Zemeckis!
Movies and TV have always been a way of life for me, but I really don’t think that I got caught up in the magic of a motion picture until I saw Back to the Future. Funny how it didn’t even take the dark womb of an ice-cold movie house to do it, but just a taped-from-TV copy of the flick, the excitement of my fellow children of the ’80s and the late afternoon of a stifling summer vacation day to cement one of my life’s great loves.
