isn't life already in 3D?

speaking of the science of sleep, this is the coolest thing i've ever seen & i'm going to make one.

you'll like this




this one goes out to all the Science of Sleep fans!



but on the serial tip, it's from Rudo y Cursi (i have no idea what that movie poster is all about)

w/ gael garcia bernal and diego luna.

which is apparently really good & funny & hopefully is released in the US soon (an unreliable source tells me may 19th)

on the soundtrack: "lindo cihuatlan" by devendra banhart

psh, first i've heard of this.

but the cool part is, i can attest to cihuatlan being beautiful, totally been there man!

yes, this keeps just getting better and better, now let's add it up:

comedy+gael+luna w/ moustache+accordion+"i want you to want me" en espanol+mexican futbolistas+devendra banhart+ cihuatlan=awesome movie that everyone should watch

hope over fear

a note to the people who are still complaining, "it's not that big of a deal" & "he's only getting respect because he's black" (direct quotes from friends on myspace)

first black president IS a big deal, it's historical.
& he's getting respect because uh...he's not a dumbassssss!
did you miss the last 8 years? not a success, in case you didn't notice.
epic failure in fact.

2008: good year in shows

there were a million shows i wanted to go to & this is what i got in chronological order:

1. the matches, the higher, we shot the moon @ knitting factory
2. mc lars, suburban legends, & the guilty parties @ ground zero
3. hellogoodbye @ sunken gardens
4. mighty mighty bosstones, street dogs, & the pietasters @ avalon
5. rx bandits @ usr
6. zebrahead, buck o nine @ house of blues, anaheim
7. big d and the kids table, less than jake, goldfinger, suburban legends @ wiltern
8. warped tour (whole wheat bread, authority zero, motion city soundtrack, oreskaband, the vandals, mc chris, g.b.h., rise against, say anything, gym class heroes, reel big fish, street dogs, against me!) @ home depot center
9. beck, spoon, mgmt @ hollywood bowl
10. weezer @ the forum
11. dj lance rock & leslie hall @ shrine auditorium
12. stella, tom lennon, & joe lo truglio @ orpheum theater

in order of greatness:
1. WEEZER, finally seeing my favorite band & the amazing rock show they put on.
2. MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES, the reunion of one of the greatest ska bands alive
3. BECK, SPOON, AND MGMT, i love all 3 and they were all rocked really hard.

surprises:
1. THE MATCHES, outstaged the headliners! easily had the biggest/most energetic crowd.
2. HGB, didn't play "touchdown turnaround"...
3. LESS THAN JAKE outstaged GOLDFINGER, gf's crowd sucked, everyone left dammit!

discoveries:
1. STREET DOGS, been wanting to see them for a long time now. went from knowing nothing about them, to them becoming my favorite. they won me over by their pure awesomeness. when i see a band live that i've never heard any music from before and they get me to jump to their music, that is an accomplishment. werd.
2. THE GUILTY PARTIES, ass kicking ska punk from riverside, they're so youthful.
3. ORESKABAND, all girl very energetic japanese ska. i found them, saw them, & met them all in the span of one month, probably less.

accomplishments:
1. ZEBRAHEAD, 11th time seeing them
2. DJ LANCE ROCK, shaking hands with the host of Yo Gabba Gabba, yeah, pretty dope.

weirdest line-up:
1. RX BANDITS with BONE THUGZ N HARMONY, also takes the award for most awkward/fun concert experience.

best non music related show:
1. STELLA, to anyone who grew up with these comedians in your life, it was magic. seeing tom lennon, lo truglio, kerri kenney, & elizabeth banks was a plus as well.

thundercats are go!

you know that scene in juno, this one:

Juno: how do you know i'm so poisonous? like, what if the adoptive parents turn out to be evil molesters?

Leah: or stage parents!

Bren: they could be utterly negligent. maybe they'll do a far shittier job of raising a kid that my dumbass stepdaughter ever would. have you ever considered that?

i really like that scene.

now if you'll excuse me i have felt cupcakes to go make.

new years angers me

all of favorite shows were pre-empted, i ended up watching Arthur on pbs.
which made me hungry?
i thought about a quesadilla with ketchup for about an hour. didn't go through with it.
stayed up until 5am drinking cups of liquids while drawing green haired heath ledgers on my striped paper.



















in conclusion, there is no television news because everything is on reruns dammit.
josh girard better be on the new 30 rock.
i made a ketchup packet today///& a felt tomato, so grosss.
[also, i'm wondering why i'm listening to the polyphonic spree]
i want someone to polyphonically make me a sangwich.
