    Lisa Hannigan - I Don’t Know

    I had never knew about Lisa up until last night when I found out she was that female voice in all those Damien Rice songs.

    (begins playing piano)

    I really don’t know what I’m doing here. And I don’t know what I’m talking “aboot”. Excuse me, I’ve been in Canada. Opening for Miles Davis… Kilometres Davis.

    I like dark comedies. That’s why I like the Wayans Brothers.

    My girlfriend looks a little like Charlize Theron. And a lot like Dog the Bounty Hunter.
    She’s writing a book on contemporary feminist theory and she let me read the manuscripts. I’ve got to tell you - it’s pretty good for a girl.

    I went to my high school reunion not too long ago and it was very weird, because I was home schooled. Just me there by a bowl of punch. Listening to Kool and the Gang. Why I rented that limousine, I have no idea.

    This woman said to me the other day, “Zack, I like your beard” and I said “Look, I’m Greek, this isn’t a beard. This is part of my eyebrow”.

    Sometimes I’ll do something and I’ll think to myself “That Is So Raven”. And then in other times I’ll do something and be like “That Was Not Very Raven”.

    If you read my blog, you know I’m a pilates freak. And by pilates I mean waffles.

    I’ve been trying to quit drinking and the other day I drank a twelve-pack of O’Doul’s. I went riding around in my car and I got pulled over by a cop. He’s like “Son, have you been drinking?” and I’m like “Uh, sort of”. He said “What have you been drinking?” and I said “O’Doul’s… non-alcoholic beer” and he wrote me a ticket for being a gaylord.

    I was reading on cnn.com today before the show - you know that kid that had sex with his high-school teacher, about a year ago? I read online today that that kid died, today. He died of high-fiving. He was in a high-fiving accident.

    Zach Galifianakis, during his opening monologue on Satuday Night Live (March 6, 2010).

    Surely, the best SNL monologue in years.

    Mind Games by Jonah Lehrer

    As Dostoevsky observed in “Winter Notes on Summer Impressions”: “Try to avoid thinking of a white bear, and you will see that the cursed thing will come to mind every minute.” In fact, whenever we try not to think about something that something gets trapped in the mind, stuck in the recursive loop of self-consciousness. Our attempt at repression turns into an odd fixation…These ironic thoughts reveal an essential feature of the human mind, which is that it doesn’t just think: it constantly thinks about how it thinks. We’re insufferably self-aware, like some post-modern novel, so that the brain can’t go for more than a few seconds before it starts calling attention to itself. This even applies to thoughts we’re trying to avoid, which is why those white bears are so inescapable.

    RAAAAAAAAANDY MIXTAPE UPDATE

    Here’s an update on the Raaaaaaaandy mixtape I’m working on with Dave Sitek. We’ve been working hard on it and I’m very excited. We may not meet the originally announced February 2010 release date, but has any great rap album come out when it was originally supposed to?

    Celebrity Muslim Aziz Ansari Finds Mecca of Comedy in Terrorism Jokes

    Whether it’s the fact that a Christian news website took the time to call Mr. Ansari a supposed “Muslim Entertainer,” or if it’s just the pure blissful ignorance of putting a picture of KAL PENN as the headliner, or maybe it’s part about how Aziz should be a “vigilant patriot” for his “adopted country” to show teens it’s “cool” to fight terror. Now I’m no man of absolutes, BUT I guarantee you that you will not find another article funnier than this expose of the man, the myth, the terrorist: Aziz Ansari.

    How to make a LOST sandwich

    Sawyer

    1. Throw the jar of jelly at wall, sneering “I don’t need no sandwich”

    2. Call the mascot on the jar of peanut butter lots of clever nicknames

    3. Huff and puff and stomp around and grumble a lot

    4. When no one’s looking, make perfect, even, symmetrical peanut butter and jelly sandwich and sit in a corner, enjoying every bite

    On Amanda’s recommendation I just started the BBC series Skins. I’d recommend it too. I just spent a few minutes trying to write a “It’s Gossip Girl meets ____” but I’m giving up. It’s unique. At first it looks like Gossip Girl (or an even more scandalous Degrassi) but after a few episodes it starts to reveal itself as more. Bonus - it’s funny and has great music.

    Nicely put.

    Thousand and One Words - A photo blog by Ryan the Temp

    Your favorite temp is now shedding light on his creative side. Here’s what “the artist” has to say about his work:

    Artist Statement: They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but my photographs strive for more. I document life—capturing emotions and provoking thought. My pictures serve as a mirror, not only reflecting the truth in existence, but also providing the viewer a glimpse back through my lens, past the viewfinder, and straight into my spirit/soul.

    More of the Same

    When someone describes a racist/sexist/homophobic incident we won’t be able to resist saying “You’re exaggerating” or “That never happened to me.” The necessary powers of empathy will elude us. Our education system will still suck. And if you’re from a poor part of our country it will suck even more. And yet many of our teachers and students and librarians will keep trying. Thank God. We’ll still believe in angels more than in Darwin.  Angels will not give a press conference but a Darwinist might.
