Yeah yeah yeah...it's been a while

Okay, so no time to dwell on why I haven't written in a while, on to the important stuff:

So I have never been a big fan of conspiracy theories, DaVinci related or not. But I do have one myself. Maybe "conspiracy" is not the proper term...we shall call it an "enlightenment." The point: so I was watching the Big Lebowski today and I noticed that there were some odd coincidences. If you watch the begining of the film you see the Dude go into "Ralph's," his local grocer, to buy some cream. While checking out, after suckling at the teat of free enterprise (i.e. a carton of Half & Half that he opened and tried before purchasing...by the way, what is Half & Half? I would imagine one half is some sort of dairy product, but what of the other Half? hmmm...). Anyway, while checking out and writing his check for $.68 he looks up to listen to the remarks of G. Bush Sr. stating that, "...this aggresion will not stand..." or something of that ilk. Okay, you ready for the kicker, the date on the check was...Sept. 11th, 1991, eleven years before Jeff and Nicole got married...and ten years before the whole big Sept. 11th, 2001 incident. Weird no? Please, someone, take this observation and make sense of it...or at least fun of it, or maybe some sort of funsense of it (not to be confused with "workcited!").

Okay, well I tire of this game. I must go to bed. But I would also like to take this time to ask that you perhaps mosey over and take a gander at my other work in progress. I think that it has promise written all over it, that address again is http://weblogreview.blogspot.com. Check it out if you dare....ooooooooooooooooooo.

Dan-
I know, I know. Bad at writing e-mail, good at leaving comments. The upside is, blogger e-mails you comments. This is to say that Smog from the High Fidelity soundtrack is not Golden Smog. It is 'Smog', who is really just singer/songwriter Bill Calahan, who used to get it on with Cat Power. I like him quite a bit. If you like it, go get "Supper" which is new-ish or "Dongs of Sevotion" which is either the best or worst title ever. In fact, I feel like maybe I put "feather by feather" by him on a CD I made for you. I could be wrong, though.
