Highly recommend Carl Hiaasen for some irreverent Florida shenanigans. I also am reading Project Hail Mary in prep of what seems to be a great film and am loving it.
The only thing more powerful than hate is love.
Commercials with parodies of pop songs that include the original artists (Bon Jovi, Backstreet Boys)…is this a common or new thing?
It had me laughing out loud…and very sad upset about Rob Reiner. Wife and I watched Waiting for Guffman last night to start the Catherine O’Hara tribute of those films. So much fun
“Over the Hills and Far Away” by Led Zeppelin
Lots of actual LOL moments. I also love his relationship with Anne…so much mutual adoration there. His morning routine had me cackling.
Here you go
Also, love this idea from another David (Byrne, that is) open.spotify.com/playlist/3h9...
I also don’t love Christmas music. However, I saw Bela Fleck and the Flecktones on Friday night where they played a lot from this album. The creativity really hit the spot. 12 Days of Christmas in the 12 chromatic keys AND 12 different time signatures?!? Count me in! open.spotify.com/album/2W76N8...
I imagine hearing anyone else’s interpretations of the voices of Calvin, Hobbes, his parents, Susie, Moe, Miss Wormwood, Spaceman Spiff, etc. would do irreparable damage to my soul. Stay strong Mr. Watterson! @calvin.cowtools.org
I’m torn between the new David Byrne (Who Is The Sky?) and Wood Bros (Puff of Smoke) albums
My wife scored a pair for 4/25, we’re very grateful
Someone I follow here was posting a pic a day from their recent trip to Japan. Stupidly I didn’t like or save any of the posts. Was it any of you or do you know who it was? Wife and I are going next week and finalizing our must-do’s.
Also open to any top notch recs for Tokyo or Kyoto.
Watched it a few weeks ago for the first time. Fantastic film.
I have a friend who says they use something like this. They read in bed with their kindle on their nightstand and use a remote to flip. I was too flabbergasted to follow up with questions about only reading on their side and font size. To each their own I guess?
My wife can relate. She’s found Sawyer Picaridin lotion and Thermacell rechargeable repellents with cartridges to be the best non-deet options.
Tied game. Winner take all. Bottom of the ninth. One out. “Bold strategy, Cotton.” 🤣
Tributes to John Candy (hydrant for a mawg), Joan Rivers (the shoes), and King Roland (the wig)?
Anything by Carl Hiaasen has brought me laughs. FWIW, Strip Tease was adapted into a movie with Demi Moore and Bad Monkey adapted into a miniseries with Vince Vaughn. I try to read them sporadically because I am afraid of finishing them all and not having anything new from him.
Also VONNEGUT
What’s the connection with Theme…just that there *may* have been a theme?
Not quite, Dude. But the feeling of seeing this final hour in a field after the Beastie Boys’ (unknown at the time) final gig is what I still chase: Harry Hood > Highway to Hell > 2001 > You Enjoy Myself -> Wilson -> You Enjoy Myself
E: A Day in the Life
My first show. Literally life-changing
Full pro-shot video here. Two songs off his new album and one off Remain In Light. So excited to see him on tour. youtu.be/HxzyxS6pRac?...
The Man in Me, Big Lebowski
I was hoping Dr Dog would be on this list. Great choice!
Lawyers, Guns and Money jammed out as a set closer would be amazing. Also, Page or Mike on Excitable Boy vocals would be fun, especially with horns and female backup singers. Can we start a petition?
Best description of the scene I’ve ever seen
