Albert Boscov returns to save chain he built →
This breaks my heart! But it’s nice to see hometown businesses fight for themselves to try and stay alive. I know that I wouldn’t want to be putting in 14 to 16 hour days at age 79. Hopefully it works.. :(

Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
I was searching for “Right Here, Right Now,” but MTV didn’t have it. Still, best video um.. ever? Maybe.

Hot drinks easy to prepare, leave lasting... →
The Open House Hot Brew sounds interesting, but the Wassail looks good, too. Nick and I had some at one of the PA Renn Faires we went to, and it’s delish. Tastes like a candle, but in a good way.. :)

I want to see almost all of these, but have the suspicion that way more than a few won’t last past February. (If Dollhouse even lasts past January, that is…)

The Complete List | TIME Magazine - ALL-TIME 100... →
So in my quest to catch up on all those classics that missed me in high school and college, I found this list from TIME. It turns out that I’ve only read 10 of their 100 best novels since 1923. Although if you add in books that I’ve either read part of or should have read for a class but didn’t, the total comes to 13… So.. that’s not that great! There are a few on...

Thanks, Nick.
You don’t know how annoying it is to have the Little Big Planet music stuck in your head ALL DAY. Well, hopefully you do now..

My Christmas List
So this year more than any other year, I simply CANNOT think of anything that I really want for Christmas. Sure, there are plenty of things that I would like to get, but there’s really nothing that I actually desperately want or need, and it’s kind of annoying. I’m a big ole Grinch this year, since I have to work through the entire holiday season, including Christmas Eve,...

Chris Spooner - Designer, Blogger & Monster Lover →
I found this site via 100 Websites With Outstanding Artistic Design, and I am in awe of its creative simplicity and prettiness! He calls it a “self-updating social homepage” but it’s basically a single site with 3 widgets that are connected to: 1.) Twitter, 2.) StumbleUpon, and 3.) last.fm. Sort of like a homemade/Frankenstein Tumblelog thing. Pretty damn awesome!

new stuff
So I added some widgets on the side, and I just wanted to put it out there that I’m not trying to make money off anyone, it’s just that Amazon had the best widgets. If it’s annoying, let me know. I’m not sure I’m crazy about the carousel feature on the MP3 player widget, but we’ll see. That is all!

Vinny Van Lowe and Dick Casablancas are catering in Hollywood and it’s on STARZ???? Since when the fuck does STARZ produce original programming? Goddammit. Let’s just add this show to my list of TV I want to watch but can’t because of the network it’s on. Tru Blood. The Tudors. Dexter. Weeds. Boo. Boo. Boo. Guess I’ll have to wait for it to come out on DVD...

Hm. I think this is a good thing. While The Golden Compass didn’t exactly float my boat (although I loved the source material), the effects were pretty spectacular. On the other hand, About A Boy was really charming and heartfelt, even with Hugh Grant. So let’s hope he can combine the two and make a great New Moon..

'Twilight' sequel: New details on 'New Moon' →
This story scares me. The budget is only $50M. That would be fine, since Twilight was made with $37M, but that was when the two leads were given $2M each, not $12M! How exactly does Summit expect this new director to make New Moon for only $50 million when they give the actors such big raises? Nevermind the fact that this story requires more CG and filming on location in Italy, plus how the...
