It’s the “Sorry I Yelled at You” bouquet!
Really, it’s a picture of pretty flowers.
Okay, it’s both.
Let me just take a moment to say how much Tuesdays suck, which is entirely unrelated to the above comments. Long day, not enough food breaks, not enough done. Whine, moan, gripe, etc. Wednesday morning means doing what [...]

Read Bob Herbert’s editorial about the Republican Party and black Americans.
It’s a good one.

My first attempt at making bread from scratch:
I don’t think it’s supposed to look like that (flat-topped), but it did yield this the next morning:

“White House Urges Social Security Cuts”
How about:
“America Urges White House Cuts”
I like the second one better.

Health care is the most important domestic issue in the U.S.A.–even for the healthy folks. You need to support reform that curtails rising costs, and prevents insurance plans/companies from denying coverage to the chronically ill and those with pre-existing conditions.
In this country you currently cannot obtain private coverage, and are considered “uninsurable” if you have [...]

I have to get Rihanna off the top of my blog.
It’s been a nice week off. And by nice I mean busy. First, I’d like to thank Veace for voting for Rihanna twice on my video of the week poll, causing the vid to tie for first place. And since I voted for Beirut, and [...]

Allow me a moment of self-congratulations here: I “blogged” every day for one week. Finally, a goal I met.
All posts from the last week are music videos–that I like–made within the last year. Well, except Feist on a bus. That’s not really a video. But it’s good. For the final post, I give you the [...]

Almost there. It’s much easier to blog every day when all you have to do is paste some code.
I just love this.
“Elephant Gun” by Beirut

I thought about posting the video of Britney’s performance at the VMAs last night, but it’s not that interesting, really–just bad. It looks like I put on a bad wig and tried to play pop star: kinda flabby, self-conscious, no moves. Except I could probably lip-synch better. It’s on youtube, if anyone’s dying to see [...]

Okay, so everybody is talking about Amy Winehouse–mostly about what and how many drugs she consumes, etc.–but her voice is great. My fave Wino tune is “F- Me Pumps,” but since I’m trying (and it’s hard, ya’ll) to stick to songs/videos released in the last year, here’s “Tears Dry on Their Own.”
Note: There’s an unintentional [...]

In honor of the MTV Video Music Awards–which I’ve not watched for nearly a decade now–I’m going to post a music video a day. Blogging without text, people.
Here’s day one: Rilo Kiley’s “Moneymaker.” Enjoy!
