Summer of Fear: Komodo Komeback

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

Komodo Dragons have decided this year won’t be a straight walk over for sharks after all. You know you are having a bad day when you are attacked by not one, but two lurking Komodo Dragons.

Summer of Fear – Terrorist Mules

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

Thank god our government is protecting us from Terrorist Mules by requiring mule drivers to be properly licensed. I know I sleep better at night knowing that

SXSW Samples

Sunday, March 22nd, 2009

I am about one quarter of the way done listening to the SXSW samples for this year. The ones I like best so far can be found here. It is a real mix of genres, with a lot of Rock, some Hip-Hop, some Electronic, and a fair bit of Folk. Folk and Country are at [...]

Sigh, I must have only been looking at the pictures, I didn’t notice Kate Beaton has a new website for her cartoons complete with archives. I was surprised she stayed on Live Journal so long as her primary base, but even though I must have skipped some of them at some point I hope she [...]

Sita Sings the Blues

If you haven’t seen Sita Sings The Blues you really should. It is very good and available for free. I have heard good things about it for quite awhile, but finally watched it yesterday and was very impressed. You can watch it on some streaming sites or download a HD file and watch it with [...]

SXSW 2009

The annual South by South West Music Festival starts next weekend in Austin, Tx. This is the mother of all music shows for new artists and attending one of these is on my list of things to do before I die. Every year they release samples from the artists, last year this was 761 songs, [...]
