This movie is probably going to be vaguely dissappointing a la "Anchorman", but this poster or whatever it is cracks me up:


THE BALLAD OF RICKY BOBBY


Trailer Here

Because I know you all loved "Drawing Restraint 1-8"...

Here is the trailer for Drawing Restraint 9.

I'm beginning to think that Matthew Barney doesn't know the first thing about counting.


Bjork's in it. That should bring the confused children flocking by the dozen to their local art house.

Last night Erin and I watched episodes 9-12 of Lost. I wonder at what point all the characters will start to annoy me because they certainly have that potential. It's good though. No, I mean it seems too smart for how popular it has become. I am feeling listless today, can you tell by the entry?


HAS ANNOYANCE POTENTIAL (most of which is located in her thin eyebrows)

I am now keeping an aqua teen threat level on the sidebar of this blog. So don't be scared be prepared! Thanks to big p for the idea...
I spent a good portion of yesterday watching "Long Way Round"- a six part series on Ewan McGregor and Charley whatshisname going around the globe on motorcycles- from london to new york through europe, the ukraine, slovakia, one of them "stan" countries, mongolia, up through siberia etc. It's really fantastic and I recommend it highly for rental through your local netflix.

ok guys

who would win in a music-off:



Crosby, Stills, Nash and/or Young

or



Steely Dan


p.s. don't pick CSN/Y just because you like Neil Young- his solo hits have no bearing upon this particular survey.

I suddenly have this urge to dance to "True Faith". Is it Wednesday? It must be Wednesday. New Order Wednesday, which is actually nothing like Fugazi Friday despite anything you may have heard to the contrary. So the week goes like this:
New Order Wednesday
Razorblade Thursday (or was that wednesday too?)
Fugazi Friday
Something Saturday and Sunday
Monday
Tuesday. Tuesday doesn't have a feel.

Other bands on rotation this morning include Tapes N' Tapes, Spacemen 3, The Eternals (old and newish) and Coconut Monkeyrocket. I need to stage a turntable takeover from the friday night beauty bar dj who only plays downtempo arcade fire gothcore. Right now I have to focus on the chocolate.

I have one sad little airport bar which makes doing things like ichatting with kristin who is in korea (south) difficult. She is living in the future so I am sure that the communication breakdown also has something to do with the space time continuum and maybe kim jong il.
I have never watched so much mtv2/vh1 in my life as today, I feel flattened against my bed maybe I accidently smoked pot, maybe I took some ambien and smoked pot without realizing it. Oh hell it's already dark outside. I should shower.

Hey guys I made up a 24 drinking game- all you have to do is drink every time someone says the word "syntox".





These posts are getting worse and worse I think I inadvertantly disabled the fun.

Here are way too many pictures from that Palms shoot a few weeks ago.

Last night at the Beauty Bar we met some hot guys who were of course not from Vegas, they were from Seattle- land where all hot guys live. One of them looked like Daniel Vosovic and Erin kept calling him that. We played balloon volleyball. We danced to "Rock Lobster". I told one of them that the only music I listened to was klaus nomi. One dude kept wearing a hat. I am not good at flirting, it would seem.
Oh I did some research and it turns out it was this band:


in this picture they are wearing jeans and have haircuts.

New design, sort of.

I just found out I am having a photo published in a magazine called "Look Look". Here is the website, because none of you have ever heard of it.

It won't be for awhile I am guessing.

p.s. it's this picture:



hahahahahaha


The only thing I really loved in any of the final collections was the "13th" dress that Dan made, the really short cashmere thing:



(really short cashmere thing)


Last night I drank a lot of pink wine and also discovered that everyone named Dan looks somewhat alike. I ain't watching no top chef if that's what you're getting at, Bravo television.

Today I got a shirt with this printed on it in the mail:
Today, in the mail, I got a shirt with this printed on it:
In the mail today came a shirt with this printed on it. The shirt was for me, and this was printed on it:


It's the communist party, get it?


I am definitely moving out of my house. I can't take the hammering and yelling at one am, the incessant pot smoke which smells like rotting spinach also, and the tons of cats because let's face it cats are assholes sort of. And they shit indoors.
I think I want to move into a place with a round tub. Other than that I am flex.

Hey look an Elephant 6 Blog. Pull out your ironic t-shirts cause the mid 90's are back!

Sometimes I feel like I am writing for the same segment of the population that watches "Everyone Loves Raymond" and it gives me a mild headache right between my eyes.


I GOT YOUR MOTHERS DAY COLLATERAL RIGHT HERE

More annoying people, as compiled from the comments here and in the ol livejournal-

People who have more than 20 items in the express lane at Wal-Mart.

People that do charity work and then never shut up about how they did charity work

Menswear salesmen that openly belittle you as a customer. YOU SELL SUITS!! THAT'S ONE STEP UP FROM SHOES!!!

Bands who say they are pushing the envelope and then have their tour sponsored by Nokia.

People who talk in "baby voice" all the time.

People who say "oh--he's harmless" when their pit bull is straining towards you at the end of his leash.

People who expect you to congratulate them effusively when you learn that they're/their partner is pregnant, when what you really want to says is "wow, Dave! Who would've thought that you produced sperm AND you were able to deposit it in the right place! Not many guys could do that, you know."

People who use their turn signal and then turn it off and then turn it on again but in the opposite direction and then after all is said and done turn in the original indicated direction.

People who work fast food in any big city.

Old ladies who do not thank me when i hold the door open for them.

People who are sitting at the back of the bus, then push through a crowd PAST the back door to exit at the front, thus forcing people outside to wait in -10 weather to wait to get on, who then turn and walk back in the direction of the rear door.
