it's really fun. very weezer. - edythe

It is; he also communicates a lot pathos in it, he sounds almost like he is about to cry at times. It was written in reaction to some record execs telling him his songs didn't have good hooks and that he was losing touch with the utes. - RAPatton

"I'm a big fan of the Onion. In fact I get most of my news from it. And then when I found this, I was overjoyed! You know how the print version of the Onion has those story headlines that don't refer you anywhere? Like: "Chinese woman gives birth to octuplets, Gov't Insists she Choose" I hope we can talk about the Onion sometime, and other similar interests, [male user x]" - edythe

From one POV he is trying to build on a known common interest and is trying to appear not to be shallow by avoiding praise of your looks; on the other hand it is generic he could have sent of to every gal on the southland. - RAPatton

Then what kind of nomers do you like? - RAPatton

just call it by the name it was originally given. or how about Metro Area? I do make an exception for the brilliant "Inland Empire." :D - edythe

Los Angeles Metro Area (LAMA) sounds so sterile. Inland Empire is nice, but it sounds sprawl exclusive, and while I do not like sprawl in the least I don't want to exclude those poor people trapped into the hinterlands. - RAPatton

Good lighting throughout. Did you have fun? Any good techniques magic-wise? - RAPatton

yes, learned quite a few things. - edythe

isn't anna, his wife, beautiful? it's hard for me to stop looking at her. - edythe

Now that you know better ways of misdirection besides pointing up into the sky and yelling "Hey! Look! There goes Halley's comet!" Better watch my wallet around you. - RAPatton

I think Anna dominates the pics, I wrote that on your Flickr. She pops out and has presence. I would agree she is pretty, but not the prettiest girl in the room. - RAPatton

I am sure it does, but it is also so sad. She captures the sadness well. - RAPatton

yeah, she's a good singer, great songwriter. - edythe

laura cantrell does a good cover of this. - edythe

Mose Allison's daughter. - edythe

"According to a Dallas police report, flight attendants had asked Mr. Jones to turn off his cell phone and he responded with, "Kiss my ---." When asked again, he stated, "Kiss my ---. Not happening," the report said." - edythe

this makes me imagine Stanley on The Office. - edythe

"Mr. Jones was unavailable for comment Monday, but his spokesman, Mark Clayton, said the businessman had received a message that his father's heart had stopped beating and tried several times to reach officials in the cardiac unit where his father was being treated." - edythe

I love Stanley; my dad almost got in trouble once for not turning it off when instructed. Half the time, I find my phone turned it self on during the flight. - RAPatton

"It is when the judges grapple with contestants grappling with songs that the show becomes important. Have you ever taken “Sweet Caroline” for granted? Does its breezy nature seem God-given, a piece of forward-moving DNA that was there before the continents separated? This season’s favorite is seventeen-year-old David Archuleta, a smooth-skinned man-child with a giant smile, a good voice, and a creepy inability to become displeased with himself." - edythe

"At a time when radio has lost relevance, and many fans have settled on niches that are reinforced on the Web every twenty minutes with updates and free music, “American Idol” offers a recurring event that almost everybody talks about at almost the same time. " -- Except for me! - RAPatton

Alicia is in charge of the Ford Commercials with the contestants each week. I guess it is a big deal. - RAPatton

Ian Falconer and Art Spiegelman! - RAPatton

"“The Fourth Wall” is the photographer Amy Arbus’s fourth book of pictures, and it is her masterpiece." - edythe
