Another busy weekend. After Friday night's movie debacle, I worked all day Saturday and then celebrated the birthday (or name day, if you're a Game of Thrones fan!) of a friend. The revelry occurred at a bar in Koreatown that makes for a pretty great restaurant, but maybe not the optimal hang-out bar. Food was [...]
>> We were excited to hear from Mike Quinn , who in the prior decade fronted erstwhile Scranton, PA-based indie rock champions Okay Paddy . That band's 2006 set The Cactus Has A Point [ review here ] was one of our favorite records of 2006 . Around the time Okay Paddy hung up its gloves for the last time, Quinn moved on to the more trad-leaning folk/vaudeville/bluegrass concern ...And The Moneynotes , which put out a couple nifty, sometimes wacky, releases including New Cornucopia! , which we reviewed here [...]
Good times tonight watching KT play softball and then eating at Canter's for the first time (not including matzoh ball soup take-out). It was good! That's about all I have to say about today. Part of it was good. I haven't posted one of these in a while, so here are the best Google search results of the day which have directed Internet users to Swan Fungus during the last hour: 10. Sinbad re-married his ex-wife 09. Reasons to go for it and date 08. Coolness burger king sex 07. I realize what is my [...]
Hi everybody! I've got nothing else to say! I'm in the middle of a frustrating work week, while everybody else i know is either away for a few days or relaxing at home. This should be an eventful week, though. Ken and kT are visiting, there are some great shows upcoming, and...uh...that's about it I guess. I'll have something more interesting to blog about after another open-to-close shift at work tomorrow. And I'm sure I won't at all sound depressed and/or acid-tongued. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to [...]
It's time again for my Weekly World Wnews roundup. Why Saturdays? Well, nobody ever comes here on Saturdays, so why should I waste a good post on a tiny audience? Why, that'd be like wasting your dick on a drunken fat chick instead of going home to Internet porn! • Not only does Kid Rock get to have his own line of beer (with nine new Kid Rock-brand brews forthcoming), the state of Michigan has awarded tax credits to the Michigan Brewing Company so they can continue brewing his beers. Many other brewery in the state have not [...]
You're probably going to laugh at me, but I ate pho for the first time today. It was delicious. Super-spicy and weird and great. When you carry out from this local Vietnamese place they put raw beef in a little plastic baggie, and it is your job to very quickly transfer the beef into the piping hot soup so that it can cook all the way through. Somehow it works. It goes great with fresh spring rolls filled with pork, shrimp and herbs, too. Sunday is here again. It is time for another mix tape. I'm pretty sure [...]
