THIS THING LOOKS LIKE THAT THING
Thursday, March 4, 2010
The message and how it’s visually conveyed is strikingly similar in these two documents, right?
MORE DOGS HATE THIS
Tuesday, December 29, 2009
Part of an ongoing series of dogs hating (or, depending on your perspective, loving) the theme songs of low-rent, high-ratings police shows (a trend previously mentioned on this blog), here we have a bunch of dogs howling along to the theme songs of the various flavors of Law & Order.
This is my personal favorite, but [...]
POSITIVE MENTAL ATTITUDE
Monday, June 8, 2009
Stumbled upon a YouTube video of the Jonzun Crew track “Space Cowboy” and was struck by how the comments are universally positive, and paint a vivid picture of a shared experience–especially when read while listening to the goofy, happy song. Being that this is still the internet, some old head know-it-alls pipe up and show [...]
KILLER OF SHEEP, SHARED
Tuesday, July 1, 2008
Finally saw Killer of Sheep, adored it, and was struck by how important the music is to the film. Cursory research revealed that the reason it hadn’t been widely released until last year was the prohibitive cost of clearing the songs that filmmaker Charles Burnett included in what was originally a (hugely ambitious, extremely low [...]
DOGS HATE THIS
Tuesday, April 1, 2008
Almost universal happening that we wouldn’t know was universal if not for the internet: dogs holler when they hear the Who’s “Who Are You,” theme song for my parents’ favorite and the world’s worst television show which features the highly objectionable David Caruso and his sunglasses. (Edit: reader Ryan points out that this is actually [...]
SWARMS OF LETTERS
Wednesday, March 12, 2008
Since we last spoke, the days have grown longer (it’s no longer nighttime when we leave work for which everyone is grateful) and I officially, arbitrarily grew older (graduating to a number that is divisible by twelve, which is very pleasing to my slightly-OCD brain). Also, I spent $25 on fancy cheeses and consumed most [...]
SOMETHING ABOUT LUDWIG VON MISES
Tuesday, March 4, 2008
Lament for the day: why oh why didn’t I buy a Whut It Dew shirt when I lived in Austin? I feel like at this point these t-shirts have been relegated to the back of every o.g.’s closet, along with all the mad-slanty eyebrowed snowmen, and as such it might be hard to get my [...]
MR. GOOD ENOUGH
Thursday, February 28, 2008
Four songs for listening to:
Joe Bataan, “This Boy”
The Caprelles, “Walk on By”
Velvet Underground, “After Hours”
Grizzly Bear, “He Hit Me (And It Felt Like a Kiss)”
To do (tide-permitting): ride bikes to the Red Hook water taxi and take a harbor tour. Their beautifully designed map alone deserves my business.
R.I.P. that dude that wrote “Pony” for [...]
