Another Cover

For those of you who know me, you know that I love cover songs, and strangely I seem to be attracted more to the cover, than the original song. You may also know that I love the band Mates of State . They are an amazing duo, husband and wife (although they didn't start out that way). She plays the organ and he plays the drums and they harmonize amazingly well while playing their respective instruments. Pretty amazing. In 2004 Kori gave birth to their daughter Magnolia. They have a blog about their urban parenting experience up at Babble called: Band on the (Diaper) Run . Anyways, in her most recent post Kori mentioned how her organ got left in Seattle and they had to use a regular organ for her most recent concert, and they played the song featured here; which is a great song. I think usually I would say that I liked the cover more than the original, but Phantom Planet does a really good version of it too. I'd say there is a close tie.

Chris Farley Lives!!

I thought I'd only see him in old SNL reruns and reruns of Black Sheep and Tommy Boy. I feel really sad for this girl.

Emo Crayons

It's pretty self explanatory. If you don't know what emo is ... view the definition.

Yahoo 404

For those of you who aren't in the internet world as much as I am... here is why this is funny; If you go to a webpage that is down, or your local internet is down, you get a "404 error". This usually indicates that the site you are going to is down. I've got nothing against yahoo, but this is just funny. I wonder if they did it on purpose.
Man I wish I would have thought of this. This just looks cool, and is a harmless prank. Oh, to be young again...

Why you should never let your girl take off her seatbelt

I saw this video again today, I know its old, but it reminded me how much I actually love the song and the video. It reminded me that the song is more that just the perfect sad music to play in the background of an emotional sequence in MTV's Real World. The video is done really well, and I really love the backward motion. If you haven't seen it, you should watch it, if you have, watch it again.

Powerpoint Tips

A co-worker put this up on the site. Its 100% correct, especially the parts about putting every word you are going to say in the slide. Super funny.
