Keane @ The Wellmont Theater
Last night we saw Keane at the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, NJ. “We” meaning me, Lisa and Janet. We’d never been to this venue before and I really, really liked it. We’ll be going back soon, hopefully for Cyndi Lauper in August. But to the matter at hand — Keane was fantastic.
How Sesame Street Changed the World
…Yet it’s only rated #15 among kids shows. Thanks a lot, SpongeBob. You may not have taught me to count in Spanish, or learn about people different than myself, or given me the skills to cope with grief, or remember the stick of butter, loaf of bread and a container of milk, but you’ve certainly taught me it’s funny to fart and berate people. Although I suppose there’s a place for that in my life, too. via tv tattle
Sink The Vandenberg!
My sister and freakniece #2 will be at the sinking of the Vandenberg tomorrow in Key West. So exciting! Keys residents have been waiting for this moment for a long time. I’m happy to see the plan has finally come to fruition. After it sinks, the ship will be the second largest artificial reef in the world. More.
Kittens Playing
We brought a couple of the kittens downstairs to play yesterday, and I pulled out my Flip. Enjoy!
Fan-Made Green Lantern Trailer
This guy put together a fantasy trailer for Green Lantern, using clips from movies and other digital trickery. Pretty effing cool — and it stars Nathan Fillion.
Blast from the Past Music Video
This one isn’t from the 80s like the others have been so far, but I was carrying this song in my head this morning. Ween, “Push the Little Daisies.” The song is now 16 years old (!). It’ll probably be extra nostalgic for the geekboy. Enjoy!
Boot Camp – Day Fifteen
We’re now three-quarters done with Boot Camp. One more week to go! As I do every Friday, I weighed myself this morning. I’ve gained more weight. Almost two pounds! I know it’s not supposed to be about weight, it’s supposed to be about measurements, but COME ON. I just feel…frustrated.
Top 50 Text Acronyms Parents Should Know
Number 16 is particularly lovely. I feel like this is one of those instances where a reporter interviewed a bunch of kids and they just made shit up.
