- more coffee talk with linda richman -

What's more offensive/in poorer taste: "Terri Schiavo's Blog" or this week's Stranger cover "art"?

Talk amongst yourselves.

The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein: one of the most beautiful stories ever written, or a dangerous tale that teaches children to be selfish and codependent?

Discuss.

Suze Orman came to Amazon today to promote her new book. I caught up to her as she was running to her next interview.

Me: Ms. Orman -- do you have time for a quick question?
Suze: Walk with me, boyfriend! I'm gonna be late for my interview!

My first Flickr entry. (full-size pic)

For some reason, this view always reminds me of the OK Computer jacket cover.

- this week's sign of the apocalypse -

Today at work, I used (gasp) Excel to create a html table because I was too lazy to hand-code it. Yes, I need to be punished.

Watch out, y'all -- I got my first dica.

And continuing on with yesterday's theme, I'm almost finished with the 4th season of Oz in which Mr. Meloni spends more than 50% of his on-screen time shirtless. The 4th season also heavily features Biohazard frontman Evan Seinfeld, whose eagerness for frontal nudity is almost as frightening as his full-body tats. He is my new favorite heavy metal badass, the title previously held by James Hetfield (as it's becoming clear that his short-hair/goatee/no-moustache/glasses look is strictly reserved for lame-ass, narcissistic documentaries).

And on a completely unrelated note, check out Numa Numa, the Japanese Remix. "Vaguely disturbing," says a co-worker. "Oh my good goodness," says Matt.

And apparently it *is* Hootie (a.k.a. Darius Rucker) in that god-awful Burger King commercial. I mean, it wasn't that long ago that his band sold 16 million copies of their debut album. And now he's peddling burgers while wearing a stupid cowboy outfit? Good grief. I think I'll send him a check for 80 dollars.

The funniest thing I read this week, courtesy of my favorite blogger:

I gave up on [Law & Order: Special Victims Unit] early on when it became clear that Chris Meloni was never going to take off his shirt. And after seeing this latest episode I can now state with authority that it is one of the most reactionary and conservative things on the air. The weekly message of the show is If You Ever Have Kinky Sex You Will Be Murdered.
