The Not-So-Bad Files

I’m amazed. The X-Files wasn’t so bad tonight. In fact it was quite good. I haven’t watched it like all season, and I knew what was going on… Although we don’t get to know until April whether Mulder is dead or not. We have to suffer through ‘The Lone Gunmen’ until then. :/

TouringThisSummerHead

Radiohead is the best band ever. I’ve said that before, and I’ll say it again. They’re touring North America this summer following a release of yet another (!) album. I simply cannot wait. I really really hope they come to Denver, and if not, I’m flying out to Santa Cruz to see them in San Francisco. I hope 808 has the couch ready. (link via SVN)

Pat Yourself On The Back, You Evil Empire

Looks like Radiohead won’t be showing up to the Grammys this year. They call it a ‘spectacle’. I have to agree. It seems that there is a ton of music that goes unrecognized in the Grammy-nomination circle that is so much better than what actually gets nominated. The whole thing is like one big advertisement for songs and albums everyone already knows about, even if they’d rather not.

Bass player Colin Greenwood added: “It should be done in private, like masturbation, really, shouldn’t it? It really shouldn’t be done in public. They’re the only two industries that jerk off in public.”

Breaking The Silence

This is a rather brief, but interesting article on another of Rudy Giuliani’s narrowminded crusades for the citizens of New York. Remember, its not how you live your life, its how you tell other people to live theirs.

Petroleum Based Products Amaze Me Once Again

This is one of the coolest ideas I have seen in a while. Someone invented plastic that heals itself. Its not like it regrows enormous parts that have broken off, but it does extend the lifetime of plastic parts that have to put up with the normal wear-and-tear of daily abuse.

Democracy: We Deliver

We just bombed Iraq. Why? I don’t know. My first inclination is to blame it on the kid-in-a-candy-store syndrome, but it is probably way to early to pass such judgments.

It's like a Titanium Ferrari

So I made a quick trip down to my friendly neighborhood MicroCenter tonight, to sneak a peek at the new PowerBook G4… I think some sort of Homer Simpson drooling thing would be appropriate here…. So I think I’ll get one. To quote Ferris Bueller: ‘If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.’
