Gnarls Barkley: Crazy (2006)
This video is one of the tightest I’ve seen in a long time. It’s visually striking, with an endless parade of Rorschach inkblots in which the faces of Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse appear. It’s thematically apropriate, what with the use of inkblots as a psychological test and the song’s subject matter. It’s […]
The following post has minor spoilers for the TV show Jericho. You have been warned.
Last night, Misty, Lana Bob! and I watched the pilot episode of Jericho, a new CBS show. Jericho is a small town somewhere in Kansas. Various characters are introduced, enough interpersonal conflicts are laid out to generate a season or two […]

Eli is now fully two. He’s as two as you can be and not yet be three or more. One of the ways he exhibits this is in his temper tantrums.
Mind you, his temper tantrums are comparitively small and often cute. But there are times when we are tired or otherwise run down and they […]
I’ll post something more substantive soon, but in the meantime, I have now seen Eli’s competition in the form of a four-year-old boy:

I saw these very cool little notebooks in Hobby Lobby a month or so ago and was just itching to get one and cover it with my usual junkola. But I really didn’t have a use for them, so I stratigically waited until I had a 40% off coupon to buy the stuff. I’ve had […]
The beauty of the white box.
Out of the box.
The switchover.
The new improved desk.
Thanks to Stephen for paying for my new computer with his article writing money. Lurv from me!
Geof, aren’t you jealous?
No one knows how many people seriously use the Internet, right? Pshaw. I can give you bounds on that number in the US, easily.

Paul Simon: You Can Call Me Al (1996)
Remember when Chevy Chase was funny? Me, neither. But this video provides documentary evidence to back up the claim. A lot of the humor comes from seeing wee little Paul Simon next to the shaggy tower that is Chevy Chase.
Weird Al: Don’t Download This Song (2006)
Yes, I already […]
