Internet Favorites

Below are two of my current favorite internet sites. Both are highly recommended.

1. Steve Roommate. Okay, yes, this is a twitter account, but it may be the funniest one available. Genius use of the twitter platform.

2. Skinny Girls Big Sandwiches. The best combination on earth. Dagwood would agree wholeheartedly.

Enjoy los dos.

Too Catchy



I have been listening to this song a lot recently. Heard them first on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Thanks, Jimmy.

Missing Thao

If anyone in the Chicagoland area needs something to do on Friday, please go to this show for me. I want to go but am busy all weekend.

I will even lend you my sweet video camera to record the action for me. Just don't get it stolen by the bouncer.

Another Addition To The Wardrobe


Last week, I ordered the shirt pictured above from Homage Clothing.

Yesterday, it arrived in the mail. I love this shirt. It is just as comfortable as my previously mentioned Hanshin Tigers shirt. Plus, it is screen-printed, which simply makes any shirt ten times cooler. Later tonight, I think that I will have a rock-paper-scissors contest between the two shirts in order to see which one is my favorite.

Of course, since I got the shirt in the mail yesterday, I wore it to class today. There happened to be a class discussion regarding the recent cap-and-trade legislation making its way through the Senate (although the recent health care debates have pushed it to the back burner).

There also happened to be a right-leaning Big Three executive's son in my class. He gave my shirt dirty looks the entire time.

But that was alright, I schooled him in the discussion after he said that global warming is simply a myth.

So maybe my Obama shirt is now my new favorite in commemoration of my victory today.

Oh No...

... a song for the new Twilight movie?!?! What happened to We Have The Facts And We're Voting Yes? Damn it.

All Torn Up Inside

I love horchata. The mexican mix of leftover rice water with cinnamon, milk, and sugar is absolutely delectable. The drink's milky sweetness makes it a great post-burrito treat.

At Pat's Ice Cream in downtown Valparaiso, they have captured all of the creaminess and flavor of the horchata drink in one of their ice creams. If you eat that and then their "Snap-O-Lantern" ice cream, you will probably never want any other ice cream ever.

Now, Vampire Weekend has taken horchata to another level with this song:



I can't decide which of the three horchatas I like the best now.

Where The Wild Things Are

Every time I see the TV spots for Where The Wild Things Are, I'm disappointed that it is not the trailer with The Arcade Fire. It is so far superior.



I can't wait to see this movie next weekend. Golly, I'm so white.

Goodbye Life

Later this afternoon, I will be purchasing an iPhone.

My RAZR pooped out yesterday as the display screen no longer works. It has treated me well over the years, so I will miss it. Plus, I now have to get a new shaving mechanism.

But my life will be over as I have known it now. I love the internet. A lot. So having a phone with the internet will be bad news bears most likely.

So, life, I wanted to take this opportunity to kiss you goodbye since I will spending most of my waking (and some sleeping) moments with my nose buried in Steve Job's mobile device wonder. I will miss you, life.

Drunk History

This is simply genius. Video cameras were invented for things like this.
