Jet Lag and Walk of Shame are those two songs from Shipwrecked that I told you about. They are good.

The Three Little Bops

28, Apr 2004

Since mentioning the Bops in the Madvillain review I did a little Googling for them. People like this cartoon. They should. It’s a classic. Here are some stills: These are The Bops. Man, do they swing! This is the big, bad wolf. He really wants to swing with The Bops. The wolf just dosn’t have [...]

Madvillain is Producer/DJ Madlib and MC/Producer MF Doom. Madvillainy is the album. This is a total underground hip-hop release so it might not trip everyone’s trigger. For me it’s pretty heavenly. I lurve Doom’s flow. The cat is sick. And the beats are way, way out there. My favorite part? They drop in this sample [...]

April 17th may have been the most productive greatest Saturday of 2004. The weather was supposed to be perfect and I wanted to get going early. I even set my alarm because I knew I wanted to get up early and have a productive day. The last few months have been so baby-intensive that the [...]

That’s what our home inspector laughed and told us when he looked at the fence that came with our house. We love having a white picket fence, but it was rotting badly and falling apart in places. This weekend, we replaced it. Thank god the posts were sturdy and in good shape. I don’t know [...]

It takes someone from a certain demographic profle for that logo above to mean something. To me, it really sounds the gong of childhood nostalgia. The Electric Company was the really the apex, for me, of the drug-addled visually stunning and musically funky educational television factory at CTW (now Sesame Workshop) . The folks at [...]
