Happy Birthday, Kim Gordon!
Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon is 56 today. Keep on rockin’, girl.
Sam Kinison and an Indian Lesbian
Last night was the season (and perhaps series) finale of Chuck. It’s such a great little show, and I wish more people watched. The finale was probably its best episode to date. I mean, COME ON:
Chuck me.
Celebrating The Feminist Legacy Of Bea Arthur
Jezebel has a nice tribute to Bea Arthur, who sadly passed away this weekend.
Travis @ Webster Hall
Lisa and I went to see Travis over the weekend, something we’ve done together about five times now. We’ve seen them in large venues and smaller venues, and the smaller the better. This show was definitely in the Top 3. It was also one of the sweatiest, as it was nearly 90 degrees in New York City on Saturday.
Simply put, I love this band. Sometimes I think that people don’t know who I really am unless they go with me to see live music. I get completely transported when I’m in a crowd with someone I love, watching artists I love perform songs I love. Yeah, I’m kind of a sap.

My latest article is up at HowStuffWorks — How Cave Biology Works.
Eating Our Way Through Vacation
I have to say that the best thing about our trip to New Orleans was the food. I enjoyed the best meals there that I’ve ever had on vacation (a close second would be 2001 in LBI when Shannon brought down a bumper crop of tomatoes). A few of the highlights:
Photos from New Orleans!
I have a busy day ahead of me, so in the meantime please enjoy my snapshots from our trip. You can view the whole set w/descriptions here, or enjoy a slide show after the jump.
We’re Home!
Back from vacation — hope to post some photos and whatnot tomorrow. But not before I sleep for many, many hours.
Vacation Tweeting!
The Geekboy and I are on vacation in New Orleans. I’ll be twittering when I can and you can follow our adventures right here! (I’ve noticed this widget sometimes takes a bit of time to load; sometimes refreshing your browser will help.)
Enjoy. We’ll miss you!
