I absolutely had dreams of singing this song as a duet with some unknown but clearly handsome and awesome boy at my 6th grade talent show. Thankfully, even when I was 12, the best technology I could get was a little cheap webcam that only took still photos. I know how you feel.
My little city got in-n-outs about a year or two ago, and people went crazy. It was. . .okay. Then we got a 5 guys about six months ago. Those are some burgers! They are not any fancy, crying-on-the-news kind of burgers, but man are they delicious. Everything a burger should be.
I heard that they want to remake Back to the Future with Justin Beiber. I'm not sure if it's real or something my friends told me while drunk to freak me out. I'm afraid to search because if it's true, I might have to burn something down.
So I can't turn on my speakers (at work) but I just wanted to say I watched JCVD over the weekend and it was kind of amazing. Consider me a Jean Claude fan.
I agree - the movies always seemed pretty bland to me, and I enjoyed reading the books about 10000x more. BUT I have to say I saw part one of the last film and it totally rocked. I'm glad I was bored on a Sunday afternoon and went to see it with my mom!
You guys, I really want to nominate Knights, but I don't think it's even on DVD! I don't know if it had a wide release but it does have Lance Henriksen and Kris Kristofferson in it. VHS party?

The one good thing about really awful, mean people is they usually make it pretty obvious for the rest of us! It's nice to be able to know you are a worthless douche within a few seconds of reading your comments and/or listening to your standup.

This worries me, because I know there are people all over the internet today making fun of this kid. I would be horrified if my young self's attempts at dance/singing/theater/awesomeness showed up on the internet now! But at the same time this is amazing and I want that kid to know it. Kid, if your adult self reads this blog: you are awesome!
On a side note, I just found some of the Jonny Quest fanfiction my 12 year old self wrote. It is still on the internet! It is going under lock and key.
From the Zach G article: "after the success of The Hangover Nike contacted him. "We had a conference call," he says. "The first thing I said was, 'So, do you guys still have seven-year-olds making your stuff?'" He didn't get the job."
Why I love Zach Galifianakis!
As a poor person, I feel like if my friends and I could somehow pool together $10k or whatever they had in that suitcase, you could find so many better uses for it! Even arty uses. Like, hey, we got check advances and then. . .fed every homeless person in a 20 mile radius! Or took every kid in this local school to the museum!
Let's form a task force, probably_not! As an art person I am kind of sick of trying to have conversations with people where I tell them just because I work in art doesn't mean I like all art ever. Or that all art is good. People don't hate all music ever just because of Chet Hanks.
Rara! I think we need to have a book/movie club together. Virgin Suicides is one of the best (books that is). And I sure do love me some Malik.
One thing my friends and I debate sometimes (because we are annoying art people) is the difference between film and video art. The main argument is that video art doesn't need to have a story, or follow traditional storytelling techniques of development, climax, etc. I am not a huge Sofia Coppola fan. But I think she exists somewhere between our ideas of film and video art. I kind of wish Lost in Translation hadn't been so successful all around, because maybe she'd be pushing herself more. I think if she works to develop some more layers in her work, or just collaborates with a really kickass screenwriter, that she could really go on to do great things. Right now? She needs a bit of work and guidance.
And The Kids Are Alright - a really surprisingly traditional story/movie for what it was supposed to be. Or maybe I am too liberal or something. I was like, "hey, that's kind of cliche. Oh, is that it?" Meh.
My two cents! Hope you like them.
Thank you for sharing too much Gabe. . .I was beginning to feel like I was the only person left in the world who didn't have dirty naked photos on my phone. If stodgy old politicians are doing it, I figured I was waaay behind in the times.
This is the only reason I have any interest in Twilight whatsoever, and the only reason I made it through the books. If Robert Patterson doesn't eat that baby out of her womb, I am outta here.
