So my good man Christopher Baldwin (of BRUNO fame) posted a new sketch this week which is basically comic characters superimposed over photo backdrops. This is something I’ve been thinking about doing for quite a while. Hmmm. I really like the way it looks in his version. That just might work.
(Okay, so I should have been working this morning, but instead I wound up jotting down a few ideas, which then grew into a full essay, which I’m including below and will be cross-posting over to my personal site for future reference. It’s geeky as hell, and dorky to boot, but I hope you enjoy […]
I want to be a gonzo journalist, riding my homicidal cyborg into the sunset! Man, I need to sleep more.
Ask and ye shall receive. It’s not any of the artists I was whining for earlier, but there’s a new album out from Diana Krall, called The Girl in the Other Room. What’s great about this album is it has new songs. Usually Diana’s albums are all covers of jazz classics, but this one features […]

Sometimes the Lord sends just the right kind of day at the right time. Today was a green, beautifully rainy day. No violent thunderstorms, just spring showers. I did some work, listened to some Norah Jones and Pat Metheny, updated my personal timeline, snuggled down in one of my favorite soft sweaters and hung out […]
You know how Alex Trebek still doesn’t look quite right without his moustache? Yeah, it’s the same thing with the beardless Salman Rushdie. Weird.
My brain tonight is bouncing from one piece of media to another, in part due to the recent infusion of Tarantino’s Kill Bill Volumes I and II. I missed the first one in the theater, so I rented it this week as background noise during the workathon, then caught the sequel with Nick Ferraro in […]
