(That was the random freakiness of the WordPress front page yesterday.)
In the olden days we had to cut and paste from paper magazines to get such profound poetry. Now we know what happens when you combine Richard Nixon with dog-chewed Super Bowl tickets floating in a Peach Flambe doused with Ginger Punch, for free! That graphic shows the [...]
Art leaves a residue. Film is a medium that makes it last a long time for large groups of people. Heath Ledger lives on in his movies, and our memories. Nina and I are especially fond of A Knight’s Tale. We have seen it 24 times. I can hear the bubbling remix of David Bowie’s [...]

Best Material Moment:

Does anyone know how to work felt like that?
It’s Friday, I have the flu, and I hate that card. If it weren’t for the fabulous week we just had together, including the amazing response to yesterday’s T13 and the Sea Creature contests, I would feel yucky.
Any good home remedies to help me get all better?
