Doppelgängers

Posted in Posts, tagged , , on January 29, 2010 | Comments Off

So, it’s “Doppelgänger Week” on Facebook.  This means that we’re all supposed to change our profile pictures to someone famous whom we resemble.  Of course, mine is the young Sarah Ferguson.  People used to tell me that all the time ca. 1986.  One friend’s grandmother never even bothered to call me by name; she just [...]

Under the Covers

Posted in Posts, tagged on December 2, 2009 | Comments Off

Well, Washington is all abuzz over the President’s big speech last night.  But, since I knew Washington would be abuzz today, I was a poor citizen and didn’t watch.  Instead, I made the Imperial March into a ringtone for my phone!  Dork-o-riffic, I know.  And my mom wonders why she has no grandchildren?
So, instead of [...]

Life after Live

Well, everyone, I’m a sad girl today still mourning the breakup of my favorite band evah, Live.  Turns out that evidently, Ed K. got quite into being a bad-ass rock star, and pulled a Behind-the-Music-esque move on his bandmates.  According to them, anyways.  Who knows, who cares?  All I know is, I can’t rock out [...]

Hope you didn’t forget to fall back

Well, it’s official.  Daylight Savings Time is (finally) over.  Every year this makes all kinds of people complain, complain, complain.  Me?  I love it!  It means the summer is really-and-truly over and hot weather is gone for a few precious months!  It means Christmas is coming; also, my birthday!  It means it’s time to make [...]

Worlds Collide

So, today is another gray autumn day in DC.  The good news is, curry is good for you!  Does this mean I need to visit the BCC again soon? I THINK IT DOES. Lagaan!

In big local news, the Chinatown Coffee Company manager Nick Cho, of the infamous “junkpunching” incident, is officially [...]

Oooh, space-y

I am barely recovered from lastnight’s U2 show at the horrendous FedEx Field.  It was a good show!  But man, does that stadium ever stink.  I hate that place!  The team sucks (but that, to a Giants fan like me, is not a bad thing), the location sucks, the signage is nonexistent, the directions suck, [...]

Better Than Love, Babe

This Undead Flow Chart is excellent. I will note, however, that I’m pretty sure its creator meant “Serial Killers” when s/he wrote, “Jason, Michael, Freddy.”  Cereal Killers is, however, an excellent album.

Si, se puede, con Ed

Posted in Posts, tagged , , on February 16, 2008 | Comments Off

OK So I was catching up on some web videos I’d tagged in the past few weeks, and one of them was this pro-Obama video “Yes, We Can” produced, apparently, by a Black-Eyed Pea.  Or whatever.  I’m old, I’m not real sure what’s up with that.

I was enjoying it, it seemed well done and effective, even if Scarlett Johannson had even less purpose [...]
