Monday, January 29th, 2007Gmail’s little web clipping thing just brought this heartbreaker to my attention. Sanctions aside, I was suddenly overwhelmed with wonder at what, oh my dear heavens what, would possibly be on Kim Jong-Il’s iPod. I put it to all eight of you readers to fill in this blank. So far I’m thinking there’s some Celine [...]
slouching toward Fallujah
Friday, January 26th, 2007Here’s night 4. It’s just … it keeps getting worse.
god damn.
Wednesday, January 24th, 2007Pics from the third evening of auditions are now up. Memphis. Disturbing stuff. I encourage you to click the photo above, of the man who appears to be opening up his junk drawer, if you will.
“It was all so real …”
Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you one Nicholas Zitzmann, who, it must be said, sings with every bit of soul you’d expect from a software engineer from Utah. I took extra pictures of “The Zitz” because something about him struck me in a way I couldn’t immediately describe. I mean, sure, obviously he’s a [...]
light reading
Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007If you’ve got a good half-hour to kill, really do give this a read. Sarah sent it to me, and it’s made my morning: The 50 Most Loathsome People in America, 2006.

I mean, think about it for a second: He went up there when he was 30 years old. [...]
on like Attila the Hon.
Tuesday, January 16th, 2007People, I have so many pictures of the television from tonight’s “American Idol” premiere, you would totally believe it. I seriously have to go to bed, and don’t have time to post them all yet, but trust me, they’re coming. I think it’s gonna be something truly special this year. In the meantime, please enjoy [...]
From Tragic to Stupid.
Monday, January 15th, 2007Now, in the name of following up something heartbreaking with something just blatantly jack-stupid, I present to you a running commentary on the Golden Globes. Your chance to bail out ends after the jump.
the mountaintop
Monday, January 15th, 2007I just heard the “I’ve been to the mountaintop” speech on the radio, and it fucking killed me. I don’t know how it escaped my attention that he gave that speech the night before he was murdered, but Jesus, I just don’t have the words. God help us all.
