oh great
no sooner do i hit ‘post’ on that than johan santana gives up a three-run home run. uh…
the biggest :) ever
i am watching baseball. (what, there’s music in the background.)

kfan: Honestly, if I never heard about how much you like Helvetica again. Internet, how come you just never shut up about some things. Maybe there is a Firefox extension that allows you to blacklist certain words and phrases. Goodbye, bacon as fetish! Goodbye, how good The Wire is! Goodbye *hacks!

the new model
i love old-media types who call out “cut-and-paste journalism” when they “catch” people who happen to be cutting and pasting things that aren’t official press releases that they happen to agree with—but who then immediately turn around and engage in it themselves on their blogs, complete with laziness about the actual research they supposedly long for. ...
for the dense.
it’s a stupid deal because warner music group is a RECORD COMPANY THAT SOMETIMES MAKES MONEY FROM BANDS GOING OUT ON TOUR, not a company that makes money from myspace ‘impressions’ and google blog search hits. has perez hilton shown that he can get people to buy records? no. is this deal going to represent a change in wmg’s fundamental business structure? no. ergo, it is a...
yesterday i found diablo cody’s blog, and it is EVERYTHING BAD ABOUT INTERNET WRITING: too many jokes, too much cultural-reference posturing, too much everything. i know, i know, i shouldn’t be surprised by this, but really, is this what “good writing” has become: a bunch of overcaffeinated, smug idiots in need of editors and a crash course in how to write actual characters...

tonight, at food world, the cashier was singing along to lite-fm’s play of ‘tattoo,’ although she was making up her own countermelody for jordin sparks’ way-too-straight vocal line. it sounded pretty good, though! definitely something i’d download.
harvell:“a lawsuit over missing pants becomes a murder case”…fuck it, i’m not even typing the rest of it out. time warner’s summary only had ‘dry cleaning.’ but come on, none of us figured that the case would also involve antifreeze-laced toothpaste!

there is something very satisfying about cleaning off windowsills, even when it’s only 40 degrees out.
