Consider it a bye week

I forgot to post picks. It’s not too crucial though. I’m gonna try to post again (it’s like my third comeback in two months), but this time I’ll ease into it. So here’s a quick entry before bed.

That’s so misleading. The overload of sun images makes me want to wear shorts. If you live in Seattle, don’t wear shorts tomorrow, it’s gonna be cold. This is a new feature of the site: Ces gives weather tips. If you’re thinking “this is stupid, it’s way colder where I live, even when the sun’s out”, then that sucks for you because you live somewhere colder than Seattle even when the sun’s out.

IMDB has all sorts of trivia for all sorts of movies. Here’s an excerpt from the Escape from L.A. page:

Kurt Russell practiced playing basketball between scenes as he wanted to make all of his shots legitimately in the basketball scene later on. He made all of those shots purely on his own talent, even the full-court one.

I haven’t seen the entire movie, but I did see this scene thanks to Jerry, Junior, and Jon if I remember correctly. “Thanks” as in thank you for showing me the worst scene in movie history. It’s a remarkable five minutes that everyone needs to experience. I couldn’t find it on Youtube but I just recommend you buy the DVD.

Go find Jay-Z “Lost Ones”. Of the three songs released/leaked from the upcoming album, I’ve enjoyed this one the most. Maybe too much. From what I’ve been reading, it really seems like people either really hate it or really love it. Shoot, I’m part of the latter (that was supposed to be a pun on the fabulous game Chutes and Ladders but I think I just won worst pun attempt of the week). The beat is produced by Dr. Dre (allegedly, I can’t tell honestly). “Dre’s had months of free time and this is the best he can come up with?” I guess the gripe is understandable but it works for me.

It’s climbing up my iTunes most played list. Last year I listened to that Kanye/John Mayer snippet of “Bittersweet” over and over when I was emo’d out (mentally not musically). I didn’t think anything would really top that but I just looked and this month I listened to a version of “Josephine” with just Ghostface’s verse 500 times.

I’d rather not have a mirror picture on myspace so I’m just gonna post it here. If you see me around and I look like this then I’m probably taking a picture of you and not being very sneaky at all.

Before I go to bed, I leave you with this image. It’s been making the rounds so feel free to hand me a late pass if you’ve seen it already.
