MOVIES - All the Wright Moves.
Edgar Wright goes 'hollyyywooooodddd' with 'Scott Pilgrim Vs the World.' Visually this already looks quite spectacular but I wonder how the script will hold up without Simon Pegg. That's a minor concern. Of course I'm going to see this. It doesn't even bare questioning.
POETRY - Identikit
Some towns all look the same in the rain,
the travel, the battle, the end result.
Grey buildings blend seamlessly to the grey sky,
blurred and merged with the cascading droplets.
Somewhere that took so long to reach
Is abandoned for quick shelter.
Some times identikit.
No matter how far apart.
This weather absorbs you
Just as the rain permeates your skin
Just as it coats the buildings in drab mundanity.
Some times all towns look the same
And change you to feel it too.

COMEDY - Webisodes
New 'Love the Concept' webisodes coming soon. Eight of them to be exact that will be slowly edited and released like an elephant farting truth bombs into the concious world.
Here are some glimpses of the first one;
VARIOUS - Parenting Fail.
I'm not very good at being an adult. Sitting beside me as I type I have a talking Yoda figure holding a Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver. And I really should brush my teeth and hair today. But not my hairy teeth, I'm not that bad yet. But no matter how bad I am at being an adult I still feel much better than those of us out there, the ones with responsibility and who still end up doing this...
MUSIC - The Passing Sparkle
Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse passed away recently. What with the death of Vic Chesnutt, Jay Reatard, this and the recent death of Alex Chilton from Big Star it's been a very bad year so far for cult singers. All of the above artists inspired and left a huge imprint on a number of people and so it's best to celebrate some of their great works. So here is the wonderful 'little fat baby's' taken from Sparklehorses's 'It's A Wonderful Life' album.

VARIOUS - Butt Pug
Pug's aren't the prettiest of pets. It must be difficult spending your life looking like a furry Peter Lorre pressed against some glass. Though I will forgive them a million ugly points for the following photos. These pics are the work of people with too much free time on the hands and is proof positive that we all need too much free time on our hands so we can all reach these levels of greatness.
MUSIC - It's Raining Glen, Hallelujah
1,2,3... and you're back in the room!
So here we go after along impasse with a song by The Swell Season, very much a Van inspired one this with horns and a 'you got to come up, gotta come up' that you can almost imagine the gruff cantankerous fecker himself singing.
Simple idea for a video too but works so well.
