The 3 E’s

See. I told you.

 

 

I just needed a name. Now I’m on a roll. I have a topic to fall back upon. A theme if you will.

 

 

I will.

 

 

Let’s get things started with a little geography, shall we? If you like maps, color-coded statistics, area codes or hip hop, then you will love this. If you don’t like sexism, irony, or misuse of the shape of our nation, then hopefully you can get past those things and still enjoy it.

 

 

Today is St. Patrick’s Day. Cool.

 

 

If you go see In Bruges just remember there is a lot of blood. Also, a lot of redemption. Also, a lot of Colin Farrell. I usually am mediocre or less on ole Colin, this time around he was solid. I saw it with a group. The girls hated it. The boys liked it. So act accordingly.

 

 

I guess I will slowly go through my blog reading list. Last time around I gave you this. Are you regularly reading? You should be. I laugh out loud several times a week because of his (or her) genius. Anyway.

 

 

I also laugh at this fellow biker. (Biker makes me think I am talking about a guy that wears black leather, is balding but still rocking a ponytail, has an anchor tattoo somewhere on his person, and thinks drinking mochas is tough.) (This is the point where I would hyperlink a witty word that would lead to a photo of above described fella, but my “biker” search mainly turned up some pictures of dirty blondes straddling a bike in a bikini, I don’t feel like sifting through several pages of results to find the perfect picture when you have all seen it before. Use your imagination.) Where was I?

 

 

Oh yeah. He makes me laugh. Regularly.

 

 

My brother introduced me to this. If you can figure it out, then you should use it. I bet its cool.

 

 

 

A good buddy and I did some exploring of East L.A. the other day. We had a great time. What am I promoting? Exploring. Also, Intelligentsia Coffee. Hummus from Silver Lake Farmer’s Market, too.

 

 

I just learned that there are 8 ways to spell Hummus/Humus/Hamos/Houmous/Hommos/Hommus/Hummos/Hummous.

 

 

I have recently revisited a couple “classic” albums (not really classic, but very strong albums that are a couple of years old from artists who could one day be considered classic, maybe). Heartbreaker and Plans have made their way into my eardrums again. Amy, your Summer Skin makes me want To Be Young. Come Pick Me Up, I Will Follow You Into the Dark. What Sarah Said about My Winding Wheel and Bartering Lines and Crooked Teeth was just Different Names for the Same Thing. Oh My Sweet Carolina sing a Stable Song to Brothers On A Hotel Bed.

 

 

See what I did there?

 

 

I am still unsure of Lucky, the new Nada Surf album. I shall report back. Or not.

 

 

I am finishing up a paper looking at 3 different Sundance films and the post-sexual phenomenon. Then I’m off to the beach with my favorite people in the world, save my family.
