34 may be pushing it as far as age goes, but Jennifer Hudson will absolutely own "I Know Where I've Been".

"Down Boys" is great, and so is "Heaven". They should have stopped making power ballads after that one.

I think this is from the Arcane Kids video game Sonic Dreams Collection. It's supposed to be unreleased Sonic games from the 90s: a character maker, Eggman's Origin, Sonic Moviemaker, and My Roommate Sonic. The moviemaker is pretty disturbing. I don't know why the write up makes it sound like someone actually had…

Their song reminded me of "Friends" by Dragon Sound from the movie Miami Connection:

Pod People is a good gateway.

I have a copy of Queen's Greatest Hits on cassette that I made Neil Gaiman sign.

I had to check to make sure that was the same Dan Piraro that does Bizarro. According to self-portraits he has done, and a quick Google Image search, he apparently brought his own wardrobe. Most of his pictures have him wearing a straw boater and sporting a handlebar. Kind of like a Robert Crumb thing.

I just finished "Grasshopper Jungle", which I loved, and now I'm halfway through Sarah Lotz's "The Three", which is keeping me interested, but I'm hoping for a decent payoff by the end. The story is intriguing, but I'm worried I'm going to get Lindelofed before it's all over. Good storytelling device, though.

"The Teleportation Accident" is great. It was much funnier that I anticipated, with a killer ending.

The snowboard cross is one of the most exciting events to watch, just because someone in dead last can benefit from a faster racer's mistake. Plus, having the athletes compete against each other rather than against the clock or judges' scores is rare in the Winter games.

Rob Lowe seems like an odd choice to play a super-powered prostitute.

Minor crowd noise = tone deaf guy "singing" along over the last four songs.  Also, someone during "I Will Dare" saying "Is that Peter Buck?  That looks a lot like Peter Buck."

Now that I've read those lyrics, I'm expecting to hear that gorgeous distorted guitar solo after them.

There was a review on April 9, 2013:

Scharpling and Wurster came up with Java The Hutt in 1999 or so, on the Rock, Rot, and Rule album.
