drama drama was a local radio contest
that aired on my way to middle school.
it went a little something like this:
.
@ 7am, oldies 94.3 played a movie clip
& the 1st caller to guess the movie correctly
won dinner @ a shitty italian restaurant.
.
we had a car phone.
i put the station on speed dial.
we won . . . a lot.

in honor of
how little i loved
this movie’s font choice *,
.
here is a video
memorializing the
badassness de saul bass.

* it looks like a promo poster for a chatty recipe email chain (“actually, the best one is the one you know in your head and can type right now. don’t agonize over it, it’s the one you make when you are short on time!” → quote pulled directly from a chatty recipe email chain). not a fan.

5 year diary
tamara shopsin
.

5 great things that happened last night:

1...went to an iconic steakhouse with the unsinkable molly jane.
2...hung out backstage during the live taping of this annual event.
3...laughed the loudest when they announced best in show.
4...got likened to this actress by some serious bollywooders.
5...discovered tamara’s 5 year diary (a must for any listmaker).

dustin & dunderdon.

3 things i’m really good at:

wandering below 14th street
giving a confident hand shake
staring at people / things

.

if time allows for all three,
there is a very good chance
i’m having a very good time.

.

for example,

when i wandered into dunderdon,
got intro’d to their charming shop-dudes,
and stared at dustin for an hour,

.

i clearly remember
having both myself and i
a very good time.

rabbit island.


.

in feb 2010, rob gorski and andrew ranville purchased a virtually untouched, 90 acre island 3 miles off the coast of michigan’s keweenaw peninsula – no joke – on craigslist. they then raised $14,970 through kickstarter to build an island house for resident visual artists / musicians / writers, best made co shipped over some kickass tools, and they officially broke ground this summer.

all is not lost is an html5 art project by ok go, pilobolus, and google that lets you embed any message you want into ok go’s latest music video and then watch as everyone dances your message out in a slow clap of browser windows that move, re-size and re-align to the music. long story short, i’ve been playing with this site for over two hours.

Okay, so EAS Sports Nutrition sponsored some rando ex-navy athlete dude to do 30 sports in 30 days in 30 different cities. The premise is a little cool, a little whatever / who cares, but what is f-ing hysterical is the last 20 seconds of his first episode.  Oh man.  That face!  When he swallows their shake!

It’s just terrific.

for reals.
