I just realized how quickly we all strayed from making this blog about Important information to share, to silly pictures. It's JUST like Rumor Has It, a great moment in cinema's history. We're all from Pasadena...

Here is what I am reading right now. I just listened to "Assassination Vacation" and am now reading "Pass the Cannoli." Both are wonderful. I highly recommend. Who else has read Sarah Vowel?

Required Listening for the Weekend:

in order to keep my sanity at work while trying to keep 80 billion things straight at once, i made this picture my desktop wallpaper for my work computer. i expect you all to do the same if you also work at a desk for an unnatural amount of time.

why is the cat wearing a shirt? why does he look so sad? something to ponder when you want to stop working with databases.

Mike Daisey!

uhh! Yall. I saw one of the best shows I've ever seen last night. This is Mike. He's a storyteller. It's like Michael Moore with less scummy-ness and more irony and a lot more stage presence.

Here is the link to his blog:

Don't worry. I will make sure I keep up to speed of the next time he is in Washinton, SF, or LA. He told a 2 1/2 hour story last night about going to this country on an island in the South Pacific where they worship America. I haven't laughed that hard and simultanously wanted to cry in ages. Actually, there were a lot of Longo Mai similarities. "And I just stood there with nothing to say... so I took a picture of a chicken." More to come on him later. So worth it.

Good show, Peter, good show.

They're back!

I am very upset that I have to be the one to post this. Lydia, you are seriously slacking...
