How to Do What You Love

this is a really articulate and insightful article about, well, figuring out what to do in life. i mean, it's just really well thought out. and it's not that all the information is new or unknown to you, but you've probably never had it put into words this clearly. check it out.

How to Do What You Love


oh and if anyone wants to see Sword of Doom, you probably might shouldn't get your hopes up too high about loving the ending.

Remember our discussion about "Jumping the Shark?"

From Arrested Development trivia

-In the episode "Motherboy XXX", Barry Zuckerkorn (played by Henry Winkler) says, "I missed breakfast, so I'm on my way to Burger King" and then jumps over the dead shark on the pier. This is, of course, a reference to Henry Winkler's character in "Happy Days" (1974) jumping over a shark while on water-skis, signaling the moment when that show lost its relevance. The phrase "Jumping The Shark" was made popular in the 1990's as a metaphor for a television show reaches its peak.

It's amazing how much cross reference there is in this series.

One more interesting one:

-Amy Poehler who plays G.O.B's accidental wife in many season 1 episodes is in fact Will Arnett's (The actor who plays G.O.B.) wife.

Al Terego's Double Anal Alternatives

so this was on Billy's page. it's this porn star's IMDb page and it's impressive. 1622 films as an actor. 1622! insane. but what's awesome are the titles. you just have to scroll through and see some of them. the title up there is No.324. it's just a goldmine for porn titles. you gotta see No.146. it cuts straight to heart of the subject matter at hand.

some are bit confusing however, such as, Butt Motors and Fame Is a Whore On Butt Row.

You lucky Nashville bastards!

In the end, Hunter is probably the only one that would be interested in this of all of you folks that currently reside in and around the Nashville area. I thought I'd post the link anyway. If you can at least make it to see Seven Samurai, it would be worth it.

Guerolito

i don't how many of you heard last year's Guero by Beck. i thought it was alright, but wasn't crazy about it. anyway, he just released another one called Guerolito which is an album consisting of all the Guero songs remixed by different people. it's really awesome. i like them a lot better than the originals. so if you dug Guero i highly recommend you check out Guerolito.



oh and this is awesome too: pictures of stuff right as it breaks/explodes (courtesy of billiard enterprises)



okay and i just found this...

Title of the Song

I can't remember if I've shown any of you this, but it is hilarious and worth listening to again if you have already heard it.



Title of the Song

Matt, this should sound very familiar. You have probably sung dozens of variations of this song.

Sorry, you have to ignore the annoying Bob & Tom laughter.

links... of suspense!

i thought these were interesting so... whatever.

Is Scott old, or what?

Jeez, Scott is old. I mean 24 is pretty freakin' old, am I right here people? He's just so...old.
Happy belated birthday, amigo.

Back to work

Man, I really enjoyed my 10 days off. Luckily the federal government likes them some 3-day weekends. I went with Nina to see her family in southern California over Christmas (specifically in the Laguna Hills/Irvine area). I imagine it was a lot like Ukraine except with less flowering plants, Best Buys, and people wearing stupid looking boots. It seriously looks like people are eviscerating opossums and sticking their feet into their still warm carcasses. That or murdering sherpas for their shoes. It's ridiculous. I managed to get into Disneyland on a day that it sold out, which I didn't even realize could happen. Apparently there were 80,000 people there that day. Needless to say, there was still an hour-long line for Space Mountain at 10:30 in the evening. Overall the trip was good and provided me with a much needed escape from the tedium and monotony that is my job.
Also, if anyone is thinking of flying United, I would heartily advise against it. We were delayed 3 hours leaving Denver on Christmas day, and arrived to find that none of the luggage we checked had arrived with us. On the way back I sat on the runway for 20 minutes at Denver, waiting for the plane at our gate to leave. They seem very poorly run in general, is the main bullet point of this paragraph.
