you are reaffirming my faith in humanity, dude.

are libraries theft? is there A Public Good to be had from the free and open dissemination of ideas and art and culture?

"If we want people to make music and enrich our culture, don't they deserve renumeration?"

i tried watching it but, seriously, i hate Crackle and their idiotic ads. would it be so hard to put together commercials for your own service that don't make me want to turn the channel off?

pfft. as if anyone doesn't already have a crush on her. i mean, c'mon - she somehow manages to make talking in new zealander-ese sexy. (unless that is The Acting, in which case she deserves like seven Oscars.)

it's like netflix for free music CDs or a Redbox for free DVDs… only you get 'em for a WEEK!

wait, i thought kelly hogan bought a farmstead in wisconsin and the dairy state gets to claim her now? of course, i've been living in west virginia for more than a decade now (sigh) and i sure as shit don't consider myself "from here" so…

pfft. that's how we get you - i'm under the damn floorboards! haven't you ever read a book?! EDGAR ALLAN POE, SUCKA - CHECK IT OUT FROM YO' LOCAL LIBRARY!
(i might not have got a lot of sleep last night and may be over-caffinated…)

I'M ALREADY POSTING FROM INSIDE YOUR HOUSE!!!1!!

didn't we run that bozo off?

insane body count, tho - i mean, whoa! i was having trouble falling asleep last night and, at one point, i tried counting up in my head all the people that get killed on that show and i stopped once i reached 40… i mean, sure: 22 were in that massacre of the mob HQ in Fargo but there was plenty of other death dealin'…

we saw neko case last night in pittsburgh and either they were doing something to her voice to make it extra echo-y or it was an incredibly well-suited performance space, since her voice sounded awesome. she didn't play Deep Red Bells, which would have been perfect, but she sang the shit out of Lady Pilot and did most…

is that like The Hell of Being Cut to Pieces? or more like The Hell of Boiling Oil?

we're leaving shortly to go see Neko Case up in Pittsburgh (woot!) but i've had a pretty enjoyable weekend watching the first season of FARGO (way better than i thought it would be) and preparing for the reunion of our college D&D game next weekend at GaryCon in Lake Geneva.

i wasn't bothered by casey affleck in GBG or anything and he makes sense if they were thinking they'd get to film some of the other novels as well, since you'd want someone young in the role if you're going to be filming them over the course of however many years… but, honestly, when i picture patrick kenzie in my…

if you want a good B movie, check out the Mark Dacascos/Tony Todd/Carrie-Anne Moss film, also called Sabotage. it's pretty great but it is what it is (a B movie through and through).

in one of the DUNE coloring/activity books, there's a recipe for Paul's Spice Bars that, if i remember right, was basically coconut, chocolate chips and granola covered in sweetened condensed milk and then dusted with cinnamon. i've never actually made them, but i get tempted to try every three or four years, whenever…

there's a place here in town that makes fresh, salt-crusted baguettes and i used a maybe 4 inch chunk once to make one of those brie and butter sandwiches. it was, indeed, a rapturous taste treat, but i think it also took at least one year off my life expectancy. (and, y'know, if that's my 98th year when i'm senile…

you should check out the recently cancelled Hannibal if you haven't already. seriously, everything on that show was a veritable feast for the eyes… including the food, even if you know what the secret ingredient is.

only if you "dip it" in some "CheezWhiz" first.
