  • Sick

    Sore joints. Stuffy head. Tired. Bloodshot eyes. Yep, I’m straight up sick…

    Of course this means that I’m not making it to El Cholo tonight. Sorry BarCampers! I’ll catch you next month, I guess.

  • There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

    The Smiths on a Ukulele? It sort of makes sense to me. Then again, I’m kind of weird…

    Either way, I think this is an outstanding cover of one of my very favorite Smiths songs.

  • A Change Of Plans

    Due to the slightly hectic day that I had at work, I totally spaced on the fact that Cory’s LA book launch was tonight. Shit. I really wanted to go to that…

    I mean, I bought a copy of Overclocked so I could get it signed and everything. *sigh* C’est la vie.

  • Multitouch Madness

    Oh. Holy. Crap. After watching this video I’m convinced that multitouch interfaces are the wave of the future. I seriously can’t wait until stuff like this is manufactured and sold with end users in mind. [via]

  • Helvetica

    I know that I’ll be more than a little geeked over seeing Helvetica when it finally comes out. I don’t want to have to wait for the DVD tho, so I hope there’s a screening in LA that I can catch before that happens. Guess I better add their blog to my feed reader and stay caught up with their announcements…

  • Out Of Control

    Oh. Holy. Shit. Go watch this right fucking now.

    Would it help if I said please? Okay, fine…

    Go watch this right fucking now, please.

  • Can’t Get You Out Of My Head

    This isn’t a music blog or anything, but for whatever reason I can’t seem to stop playing these songs over the past week. So I thought I’d share them with the lot of you. Sharing, after all, is caring…

    • Interpol – Evil — This is probably one of my favorite Interpol songs out of their entire catalog. Enough people have said that they have a very Joy Division sound at times — to the point where it sounds a bit cliche — and I think this song does a good job drawing a line between the two groups.
    • Colin Meloy – Jack The Ripper — I really enjoy what Colin from The Decemberists has done with this Morrissey track. In fact, I really enjoy the whole Colin Meloy Sings Morrisey EP, but this one is quickly replacing Everyday Is Like Sunday as my favorite.
    • New Order – Age Of Consent — Speaking of songs quickly replacing one another as favorites, I’ve been swayed towards liking this song a bit more than Temptation. I’m not sure if it’s just because of current circumstances or whatever, but I feel like I really identify with it.

    The senduit links expire in a week. If you want them, grab them quickly.
