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 [...]

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 [...]

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 facing some serious [...]

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, [...]

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.

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 [...]
