Kick off your boots, pour some Jack, sit back & relax.
SO GOOD, you won't regret it.

I AND LOVE AND YOU.
I saw the end of The Avett Brothers set at Newport Folk Festival this past summer, and I kind of wrote them off as just another folk/rock/country hillbilly group. But recently, they've been playing on my iTunes more and more, and the other day I picked up an older album of theirs. Now I can't stop listening! They're like a sweet fusion of Kings of Leon, The Decemberists, Langhorne Slim, Conor Oberst, and Holy Ghost Tent Revival - but not too overbearing. The perfect combination. If that's what you're in to. But I highly recommend you let your ears try them out.
SO GOOD, you won't regret it.

A NEW DECADE, A NEW PERSPECTIVE.
It's 2010, what up!
I can't believe a decade has gone by so quickly! I can't believe I was only 10 years old last decade! I can't believe all the hype and fear and superstition that surrounded the coming of Y2K! But I do believe that 2010 is gonna be a very good year indeed ...
My fam and I just got back from New York before the Times Square New Year's Eve craze. Last night we were invited to a Vegan Potluck party at my friend's house. Being non-vegan food lovers (meat! cheese! eggs!) we were kind of freaking out and worried that we wouldn't be able to make anything. We settled on cashew curry & coconut rice. If I do say so myself, It was pretty successful! The whole potluck was delicious! (Especially the desserts.) It was a pleasant & different (not to mention, healthy) way to ring in the new year, the new decade. Although I don't think I could ever go strictly vegan, I will resolve to be more vegan-conscious, I suppose. Open my mind to the diversity and variety of vegan foods. (How very Cambridge of me.)
As part of my resolutions (well, I suppose they're more like goals), I'm pushing myself to do more writing, especially to keep up this "blog". We'll see how this goes!
Cheers!

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out.

THE ONLY REASON THERE'S ANY EXCUSE TO WATCH MTV ...
ALEXAAAAA CHUNGGGGGG!
I love to hate her because I'm actually just really envious of her personality, style, quirkiness, cute awkwardness, etc.
I mean, come on, what's not to be envious of? She's British, funky (do people even say that any more?), gorgeous, stylish, a model, witty, her boyfriend is frontman of the Arctic Monkeys. I seriously wouldn't mind switching places. Le sigh. But until then, I'll just record It's On With Alexa Chung and somehow forgive myself for watching an hour of MTV a day.

Freepers, Birthers, Morons of all stripe, You didn't get mad...
From Democratic Underground:
You didn't get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.
You didn't get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate energy policy.
You didn't get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.
You didn't get mad when the Patriot Act got passed.
You didn't get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.
You didn't get mad when we spent over 600 billion(and counting) on said illegal war.
You didn't get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in Iraq.
You didn't get mad when you saw the Abu Ghraib photos.
You didn't get mad when you found out we were torturing people.
You didn't get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.
You didn't get mad when we didn't catch Bin Laden.
You didn't get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter Reed.
You didn't get mad when we let a major US city drown.
You didn't get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark.
You finally got mad when.. when... wait for it... when the government decided that people in America deserved the right to see a doctor if they are sick. Yes, illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, stealing your tax dollars to make the rich richer, are all ok with you but helping other Americans... well fuck that. That about right? You know it is.
You people have all lost your fucking minds. You are selfish, greedy, obnoxious, narcissistic, and frankly... stupid. Your pathetic little misspelled protest signs are embarrassing. Maybe you ought to find the smart person in your midst and let them make up all the signs, cause man, you look like a bunch of idiots. Also you're ugly and your mother dresses you funny.
I'd say this is a pretty fair description, wouldn't you?
It just goes to show what happens when you listen to, trust, kow-tow to Glenn Beck.
