She Blows.

This clip just kills me. It seems like the laughs are over after the first minute, but they return again and again in waves. Did this woman have a pageant coach or a music instructor? Are all the beauty pageants in Arizona this bootleg? What happened? How did it all go so wrong?
Ah... but it's so right.

It's kind of amusing.

Recharge That S*#t!

For Christmas I got an Energizer rechargeable AA battery pack. Now that I have it, I'm like "Why the hell aren't rechargeable batteries the only kinds that are sold?" It's so obvious when you think about it... Why wouldn't you spend 25 bucks on a charger and 4 double-A batteries that you would NEVER HAVE TO REPLACE?!?!
It goes without saying that it's the ecologically responsible thing to do (dead batteries take up space in landfills and leak mercury into the ground that contaminates the earth's water supply), but what about the savings? It's so much cheaper than buying battery after battery and just throwing them away. So buy yourself rechargeable batteries and save some cash... and a little landfill space.

green thom

I've always loved Thom Yorke as an artist, but I'm appreciating him more lately as he becomes increasingly involved with environmental action groups, most recently "The Big Ask"- an ever-expanding British organization fighting for better climate change legislation. In this interview Thom talks about global warming and his son as his eyes blink endlessly out of synch with each other. I love this guy.



The new Radiohead album "In Rainbows" is out now. It contains what might be my favorite song of their career, "All I Need." Here's the first video from the album- "Jigsaw Falling Into Place."
