And the Frivolous Purchase of the Day is...

...the sitar!

It was made in India, it's beautifully crafted, and it's bigger than me.

Do I know how to play it? Or even tune it for that matter?

I think those are irrelevant details.

A Few Words on Regina Spektor

If you enjoy life, then you should listen to Regina Spektor's new album, Far. Though it's not as varied in sound as her last album, Begin to Hope, it's quirky, cute, and upbeat. It's like rainbows and ponies, in singer/songwriter/pianist form.

However, clearly, the Pitchfork hates life. Those poor critics, no one taught them how to love.

Speaking of love, here's a picture of a cloud.

It's About Bloody Time!

I don't know about you, but I'm relieved to see that Honduras is on the front page or top story or whatever you call the first story on an Internet news source. It's not that I didn't like Micheal Jackson (how can you not love Thriller? Even robots love Thriller.) But aren't there more important things in the world going on?

I mean, the man hadn't made a decent album in decades. And he was bat shit crazy (see proof from Chris Leavins). But, still, he was a media spectacle, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

But look at this kick ass doll my friend's mother found! (Further proof that you can't hate Thriller.)

And don't worry Farrah Fawcett. I remembered you, at least.
