New Me

Matt Tobey fans will want to turn their attention to Yankee Pot Roast today. I’ve got a new thing up over there called All That Was Left of My Novel After the Fire.

Speaking of YPR, Josh Abraham has a cool interview with a homeless guy at Gothamist.

God Bless You, Mr. Artest

Blogging’s been light on account of my wicked-ass cold. On the bright-side, when the shit comes down and Waterworld happens, I’ll be all set when the universal currency becomes dried snotty Kleenexes.

So, what’s up?

I’m actually glad Ron Artest flipped his lid at the Palace Friday night. For once the nation is abuzz about a sports controversy that is actually worth debating, and one that’s actually about sports. The puritanical letter-writing-campaign coordinators are surely miffed that no one gives a shit about Nicolette Sheridan pretending to be naked anymore. And, for that, I think we all owe Ron a cup of beer.

Also, if it weren’t for all this hoopla, I’d have never known that R-Ar has a hip-hop record poised to drop. Finally my pockets will be freed from the firey wrath of my money!

Probably Old News

I might be the last person on the Internet to happen upon this, but AndreaMosaic is a really cool free program that lets you create photo mosaics. For example, I created this image of the Mars Rover completely out of pictures of The Judds…

The Bush Employment Plan

Okay, I get it. President Bush is making all of his cabinet members resign so he can hire new people and inflate the job numbers. Clever, very clever.

At least that lady who stopped 9/11 got a promotion.

Nerd Alert!

If you’re like me, you’re a nerd, and one of the best parts of your evening is watching The Screen Savers on G4TechTV every weeknight at 7pm. If you’re even more like me, you’ve also thought that the geekiest cable channel of them all has gotten kind of sucky ever since the Comcast-owned G4 gaming channel stuck its chocolate in TechTV’s peanut-butter. Nonetheless, The Screen Savers continued to be must-see TV.

Over the past week or so, TSS has been in reruns. Why? Turns out they canned most of the talent, save nerd power-couple Kevin Rose and Sarah Lane, and are in the process of “revamping” the show. It’s scheduled to return live on November 29th.

Bummer, eh?

All that’s left to do now is drown your sorrows in a free PVP or FreeFlatScreen.
