Cinematic Mediocrity

It Takes Two. No, not the wonderful song (Right-click, open with, save as, copy, paste, steal, rip)by Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock, I'm speaking of the 1988 classic movie, It Takes Two. It has wonderful hints of The Wizard of Oz underlying the plot, and some great one-liners "You can't really destroy anything; just rearrange it". Classic. It also had a pre GTA game in it, where the main character just drives in a car and runs over people.



Well, now I gotta, gotta get some of that sleep. I'll just lie here and pretend to. Then the sun'll come up. Oh yeah, today is an extra day. If it was my birthday, I could get free pizza at Chuck E. Cheese, yes?

Later.

Best

I don't hear too, too much much about this band in everyday conversation. I always, always liked this song and I love the album it came from- George Best. This is one of those albums that I wish I had awaited purchase of, because now it is released with additional songs that I don't know if I must have. Anyway, this song (R-click) "Don't Laugh" is a gem and deserves the name of this football legend.


My soccer season starts March 3rd. I have players from Kazakhstan, Korea, England, Illinois, Ghana, Colorado and all of the Benetton colors available. It will be perfection. Like Mouse on Mars- Saturday Night (Crack Mix) Click it right and save it left.

You're Gonna Lose

Now, I'm not talking bad about you, no. I'm just begging you to give me a subscription to The Journal of Popular Noise. I'll go meek and say, "Lord, I'm talking to you." Hint, hint... I'm waiting... waiting... well... nothing. I tried in the super/un/psudonatural anyway and came up a tad short! Well, I shall punish my ears with the Kings of Convience and their eerie sounding song, Failure (R-click, save as, open with, blah-bliddy-blah). They look like nerds, but they don't sound like them. And they are coming. Well not to Colorado, but the PRB on the 14th of March. And speaking of coming...

DeVotchKa are coming, DeVotchKa are coming! And for free. Appearing for nothing at Twist and Shout on March 18th. I'll be thirty-three and one day as old, as well. Yippee for me who made too much to claim Earned Income Credits, but not enough to warrant a refund. Har, har.


The Soft Boys being bit and nibbled on by N.E.R.D, "no way" I thought. But this video makes me scritchy-scratch my head.


And I hate Jason Lee, but I love his girl. Jerk.

Yawn....

I always liked this song (Right-click and "save as"). It rocks with just enough force to reckon that of... say... this song (Right-click again), just not as scary. I mean ghosts are a scary subject, but getting killed always out frightens imaginary things, for me anyway.

What really keeps me up late in the night are statements from Karl Sabbagh. He said, "Our brains may never be well enough equipped to understand the universe, and we are fooling ourselves if we think they will.

Now, this man wrote about the Riemann Hypothesis, and I cannot begin to scratch the surface of its intent, nor dumb it down enough to satisfy my weak realm of knowledge. But my futile mind can accept and respect the idea that humans may not understand the universe. I understand that the more I learn, the less I know, but that is a cliché phrase and just cements Mr. Sabbagh's suggestion of how (in)capable our minds are. It's like Franz Ferdinand covering (you know the drill, right-click...) LCD Soundsystem, it should not be, but it does sound nice.

I guess I'm just suffering from the Lewis Thomas Syndrome, which I read about in an Outland cartoon. Sad, huh?

Grievance

I'm filing a grievance on this fucking insomnia. I can't keep checking out sites like this all night, no. I need some sleep. I need to search for sleep techniques, or to cut back my caffeine intake. There must be a way to induce disambiguation with no effort or serious thought, right? I mean, I can't fall asleep to Guy Chadwick's (What a terrible and minuscule description)You've Really Got A Hold On Me or Screaming Trees Grey Diamond Desert, nope. Maybe it was my dinner of a salad with Greek dressing, that contained a copious amount of pepper that sucked the moisture out from the pepperchinis I had to accent my somewhat healthy meal, sure. I mean, what is life with not but a cool, cool image as this? Alas, thank jeebus for this.... "Suck, suck, suck" Yay!

This what I look like currently

Random

Been a long time, just thought this was funny.

And since my life is dull, I'll post random things from here on out. Like this cool/rare comic from Bill Watterson:
