Sometimes life is just like a New Order song.

(Bet you can't guess which one!)

About the same time I started work at the illustrious Cedra Corporation, I started to read The Andy Warhol Diaries. It's a near-daily written account of the activities and expenses of the Andrew Warhola from 1976 up until his death in 1987. It was started as an expense diary for tax purposes but in the end it's really a dishy account of the ( Read more... )

I had a literal killer time earlier today listening to "Hot Fuss", that CD by the Killers (an ACL fest favorite band). One of my coworkers forced it upon me. It wasn't good, it wasn't bad, it was mildly reminiscent of Interpol ( Read more... )

It has taken two months, but I've finally seen the phenomenon that is "Napoleon Dynamite".  It seems that the majority of people who have seen it either loved it or hated it.  I however, am in the category of "love, love, love it".  It's chock full of quotables.  My favorite:

Must-see TeeVee: The finale of Blow Out on Bravo is Tuesday the 13th.  Big time suspense, drama, and even bigger hair!  I'm embarassingly addicted to that ( Read more... )

So I heard that Oprah has a book club, right?  And I'm thinking to myself, you know what, I could have my very own book club too!  So I started one.  It's slightly smaller than the divine Miss Winfrey's, but, you know, it's a start.

Ok, ok, I'll admit it.  I don't have a "book club" per se, but I do own a book, and I read it.  And it was really ( Read more... )

Here are my top ten pictures from a fairly recent photo expedition to the Barsana Dham Hindu Temple just south of Austin.

Take a look!

And don't judge too harshly, on account of this was the first time I've picked up a camera for any sort of artistic purpose in a couple of years.  Hopefully, this is the first of many annoying displays of my ( Read more... )
