Two Minutes and 40 Seconds of Happy

Let's hope I did this correctly - it was a big pain in the ass to figure out.



That's Connor singing and I played all of the instruments - I didn't spend as much time as I could have (if I HAD time, that is), so it needs some adjusting done to the sound levels and effects, and probably an edit or twenty, but there you go - I'll try to do stuff like this more often if this works!

Damn.

I was doing so well at blogging two or three times a week there for a while, and now what's it been, a month more? Anyhow, music lovers out there might appreciate this. Beck's put together top-notch musicians (except Devendra Banhart - that guy once wrote a song about green beans, so he can die in a fire) to record a cover of a seminal record by another artist, all within a day. Good stuff. I especially like the cover of "Marianne."

Thank You, Internets

It's no MacGyver Punch, but it still makes me laugh after many repeat viewings...

Kids Show

I wish this is what was on in the morning. Instead I have to listen to some Canadian Kid Show garbage while I eat my cheerios.

I Don't Blog Much, Anymore

I was doing good for a while - even if it was inane bull$#!% generated by other people. I typically onyl take the time to write out a blog post if I'm watching cells fall into tubes™ as I feel like I'm not wasting company time - I'm multitasking. The schedule in the lab has been rather light as of late, though, so no updates. I did finally get some pictures Flickred, though, so those few of you who type in the URL periodically to visit this little spot in the interwebs can check them out. I'll try to post the better/more explainable of them sometime in the near future.

I like this picture.

In Heaven

In Heaven, I'm pretty sure that this plays on endless repeat.



Now, where did I leave my damn camera?

It's True, Too.

Funny and true.

The Ballad Of Bilbo Baggins

If this song isn't played while the credit's roll whenever Peter Jackson gets around to finally filming The Hobbit, I swear to God I'll cut somebody.

Cantankery!

As in, the act of being cantankerous. If cantankery's not a real word, it damn well should be. Anyhow, this is what I'm getting at.

Hello, Dr. Chevalier

Who's my new favorite (fictitious) author?

This guy.



BTW - I have a new pet peeve. It seems recently that the word "fictional" has come into vogue (as in I don't remember seeing it too often prior to the last 6 months or year) to describe a person place or thing that someone has made up. I.E. "If you read it on the internet, it's probably fictional." The problem is, even though I looked it up and it is a real word, it sounds effing stupid and I hate it. Can we all go back to using the word "fictitious," please?

This Guy Has A Tiger's Face On His Bass Drum

How is it that this musician didn't become a household name after releasing this video? It boggles the mind.

My New Favorite Thing Ever

BTW, Y'all. We're going to be in the greater Warshington area from the 11th throught the 20th of this month, or somewhere thereabouts, if anyone wants to meet up. I'm sure I'll send out an e-mail to everyone I think might be interested with some more details, but you might ping me if you're interested and you read this blog. I may even try to send out some details via *gasp* Facebook, but dont' count on it!

Maybe I should try to post some pictures sometime soon.

Follow It Up With This

This Needs Absolutely No Explanation or Translation

Ha ha!

The funniest thing about this picture is the approving and amused look on Sarkozy's face.

Wonder if our man B.O. will be sleeping on the couch anytime soon.
