The debut album from Two Tongues (members of Say Anything and Saves The Day) leaked today and it's amazing. Definitely what I was expecting. Between that and The Rural Alberta Advantage, I'm going to have some good cds to listen to for the time being.

(((Originally meant to be posted like a week ago)))

Woah, I got a girlfriend! No clue yet as to how that happened. She's pretty amazing, though, and I am a lucky, very lucky man.


The short principal-lady on Kindergarten Cop is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH LIKE YODA.
Also, I think Clint Eastwood has a bit of a Batman voice in his newest movie.


Earlier today whilst eating the Most Delicious burrito at Bandit Burrito, I conversed with a Billiam Short as to the possible origins of the Ghostbusters. I figured the guys were all basically huge potheads in high school. How else would they have aspirations to "capturing ghosts and shit" with "wiggly lazers"? The more serious, less stoned versions of these guys could probably have been: a blues singer with an interest in the paranormal (Dan Aykroyd as Raymond Stantz), a more serious stoner (Bill Murray as Peter Venkman), a soul singer (Ernie Hudson as Winston Zeddemore), or a scientist (Harold Ramis as Egon Spengler). Oddly enough, though, three of the 4 Ghostbusters are officially doctors in the movie (even more interesting is the fact that the three white guys are doctors while the black Ghostbuster is not. Racism?).

Billy pointed out that the Ghostbusters can't cross their lazer streams. I bet they think this is hilarious, referring to male urination where there is the joke of "crossing streams" or "sword fighting." Makes sense; a bunch of guys being guys, turning the "lazer" into a phallic object.

So I was walking in the skywalks downtown and I thought of a new saying. This is for those times when you're walking with someone and you see a pretty lady. You look at her and say:

"I'd like to buy season tickets to THAT venue!"



I finally saw Grand Buffet (totally unexpected)!!! They were amazing. Girl Talk was pretty good, too, though I would have much rather seen a full set by Grand Buffet.



Here's a new addition--
