oh, the places you will go

Remember when I said that I wouldn't ever do a linkpost?

I lied.

Geez, Thor, it's not that big a deal....

A planet well worth exploring.

Dave reviews Osamu Tezuka’s Buddha in its entirety; as a consequence, Andrew now wants to read Osamu Tezuka’s Buddha in its entirety.

Say it ain't so, Kylie!

You have until Sunday to enter Ken's Oscar Oscar Revolution contest. So hop to it, kids!

I'll work all week to buy you things, even if I'm too tired at the end of the day to remember what you look like.

An old salt recounts his epic journey through the Shoals of Twenty-something. (I burned my boat on Underachiever Island's tropical shore long ago.)

The link between Defender and Deutscher new wave revealed.

Better than the Sears Wish Book. (Alternately, I can dream about you, if I can't hold you tonight.)

I would just like to point out that my birthday is coming up in a matter of weeks.

The B-52's - Roam (from Cosmic Thing, 1989) - Senior year was a long, long time ago, but this song doesn't seem to have aged one bit. It's all in the cheekbones, I'm told.

I'll make room in the paint locker for the Creepy/Eerie relaunch.

Time however, to shake the snow off the braces and sand the decks for boarders. Crew, Look Busy!

Senior year, eh? I was in sixth grade when Cosmic Thing came out. You're right, it doesn't get old (except for hearing "Love Shack" for the 2,535th time).

I have a post on their new album up at utahpolis.com if you're interested.
