Peaches - Fuck the Pain Away, sung by Miss Piggy

What's more distrubing? Miss Piggy singing Fuck the pain away or the Disney Logo in the corner?

My life just got better than yours.

Okay. It's fucking snarky, I know, but I am fucking super happy that this just came in the mail:


That's right. Radiohead. At the Hollywood Bowl. In the Super Seat Section. To the right of the camera. Almost dead center.
After 20 long years in La La Wood, a connection finally came through and I got these member seats at FACE VALUE!

Suck it.

Okay. I'm kind of a dork.

Will Eisner be proud.

Despite the elliptical title of this post (figure it out) I have a crush on Miller's take on Eisner's The Spirit.
I just hope that he hasn't lost the humor....

Overheard: Los Angeles.

Lenny Kravitz lookalike. Sitting outside the Ralph's on La Brea across Trader Joe's. Eating a salad, talking on his iphone. Stylishly ripped jeans, sandals, rock star sunglasses, chestnut colored skin either from fortunate birth or expensive tan.
Verbatim:

"Yeah, well, I think we're all going...it's for [name witheld], the porn star's birthday...we're going to go up to Santa Barbara for a wine tasting...I think we'll probably all get a few rooms...I don't know...I can ask. I didn't think you would want to...okay, well, if you can get there, I think you can come...okay. All right, then. Okay, I gotta go, too. Love you, mom. Bye."

Andy Kaufman on HBO (1977) - pt. 2 of 4

The second part. I might part the rest but this is freaking amazing. It was a full year before Andy was on Taxi. He was barely known. I remember this show and his Tonight Show and SNL appearances. Thinking back, Andy Kaufman might have been partially responsible for my comic worldview. The late 70's were heady times for pop culture. I think we shant see an era like that again.

Lost is....WHAT??!?!?!?



5 bucks says I can't watch the show without this in my head. Thanks, Aaron, thanks for ruining the next four years. Ignorance was bliss, you know!!!!!
