Guess The Random Lyric: Me-2: You-1

Nov 20, 2008 4 Comments

What-What? Is that the sound of a marching band going off (in my head) because none of you knew that yesterday’s lyric was from “No. 1″ by GoldFrapp? I think it is. Can you hear the horn section? But let’s see if I can keep the band playing, with this: my hands-down favorite rap song [...]

Dear Thursday: Why This Kid Had Better Be Awesome

Nov 20, 2008 35 Comments

As it turns out, the best thing about putting together 4 to 6 helpings of Pork Adobo is that I don’t really care to eat anything else right now. The Mac & Cheese was lovely on Tuesday, but on Wednesday a new phase of the pregnancy train had begun: 24/7 nausea. Nausea when I got [...]

One More Thing Before We Go: No Berry for Barry

Nov 19, 2008 6 Comments

So one of the biggest news items of the past weekend, was that Barack Obama might have to give up his BlackBerry, b/c it’s really not secure and also might violate some presidential email sunshine policies. My thought is that a few years from now, B will be brought up on ethics violation charges, when [...]

File This Under: Cat Week at Fierce and Nerdy

Nov 19, 2008 5 Comments

Okay, weirdly enough, the same week that I recruited an awesome new blogger for a blogumn (really tentatively) titled “Woman and Dog,” all sorts of cat items are coming out of the woodworks. If it’s Cats vs. Dogs, the cats are definitely winning, and perhaps none more so than this super-viral Japanese cutie.

Paths Not Taken: Computer Science

Nov 19, 2008 4 Comments

So the other day, I got to thinking about one path not taken: Computer Science. My junior year of high school, I didn’t own a computer myself, but I had read a few fiction books that I liked in which characters used computers, and in general, I loved the computers at school, even if I [...]

Guess the Random Lyric: You-1: Me-1

Nov 19, 2008 6 Comments

Grumble, grumble. Zacki from Tall Glass of Shame guessed correctly that yesterday’s lyric was from “Origin of Love” off the Hedwig and the Angry Inch soundtrack. This is sad on two counts: 1) We’re now tied and 2) Remembering this phenomenal movie makes me really sad about the state of indies today. So sick of [...]

So, remember back in the spring, when Filly Film Cult threw our most successful micro-film festival to date: The Quickie: An Evening of Disappointing Porn?
