Maybe it’s just me

But I’m getting a very strong Curt Wild vibe from current AI contestant Adam Lambert. They both have unfortunate over-processed hair, massive amounts of guyliner, and a tendency to clutch themselves while performing. (To the best of my knowledge, Mr. Lambert has yet to actually drop trou while onstage, but I live in hope.) What’s [...]

Break out the creamsicles again

admin | February 26, 2009

Because it looks like next year we’re going to have the equivalent of our 1976 suckass expansion team. Yesterday, the new head coach and GM of the Bucs let go of FIVE veteran players. Including one sure bet for the Hall of Fame, two past winners of the Walter Peyton NFL Man of the Year [...]

Plot holes?

via Cracked.com 8 Classic Movies That Got Away With Gaping Plot Holes I don’t think some of them are plot holes, necessarily, just things that might crack the suspension of disbelief a smidge. What’s In My Head Today? I’ll give you an extra bajillion points if you can figure out why. Today’s quote– “Here, I [...]

In which I explain my loff for Thomas Newman

admin | February 24, 2009

Yesterday, when I expressed disappointment that the score and original song from Wall-E didn’t win, I threw out a reference to Thomas Newman without really thinking about it. It occurred to me at some point yesterday that most of y’all probably don’t know what I’m on about. When I watch movies, I tend not to [...]

Oscar thoughts

admin | February 23, 2009

Despite my head turning into a Play-doh Snot Factory, I was able to stay up and watch the Oscars, and mostly enjoy them. Things I enjoyed: Hugh Jackman. He was lively, witty, and fun to look at. What more could you ask for? Amy Adams’ gown. Lovely color and structure, great accessories. An ad for [...]

Eh?

The Governator, just now on George Snuffleupagus – “It’s not about me right now. If you turn ‘me’ upside down you get ‘we.’” Actually, Arnold, if you turn “me” upside down, you get “ew.” Which is profound on many levels.

I love my fiends

admin | February 22, 2009

My friends are pretty cool too, but my fiends rock. As mentioned on the previous episode, a bunch of ‘em came over yesterday for pot luck and birthday celebrations and general merriment. There was much good fud, drink (one friend made choco-tinis) and lively discussion. At one point, I made the mistake of mentioning the [...]

The Day of Yuck

admin | February 21, 2009

Due to various cold germs floating about the place and incredibly poor timing on Mama Nature’s part, I spent most of yesterday wandering around in a miserable fog. I will spare you the details. I am much perkier today, which is good as I have about half the world coming over later to celebrate various [...]

Dear Tatiana del Toro

admin | February 18, 2009

SHUT UP. Good god, woman. What’s In My Head Today? A small demo of how this process generally works. I get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Upon my return to bed, I flop down, pull the covers back up and settle in. After a few moments, I feel a [...]
