I bet if I lived in the real America, I could have biked to work in 40 minutes this morning...
A REAL American would drive a Hummer or
possibly
a snowmobile.
Banjo playing during brain surgery
I wonder how you sterilize a banjo
Movies and television shows have never really given me a sense of a place. This may be from growing up with New York being perpetually wrong in everything I saw.
Though when I first went to Scotland I kept singing songs from
Brigadoon
and in Vienna I kept humming waltzes to myself.
Then there's the R.O.U.S. faction.
Retireees of unusual size? I don't think they exist.
I wonder how you sterilize a banjo
They come pre-sterilized, in little sterile plastic wrappers. Then they have these giant red bins where you put your contaminated banjo in after surgery.
diet coke. all over my keyboard.
thanks tommyrot. I needed that.
I suspect the neighborhood across Woodward from the Fox theatre is less war zone and more parking lot now.
The big apartment store is definitely gone. But luckily some of the old buildings are safely inhabited (the downtown library, for instance, or the Guardian building) and will be there for a while.
The Zappos OUTLET STORE.
I saw that when I was out there this summer but didn't have time to go. Mecca!
Havana Before Castro
Too much city talk - I read this as Havana Before Cairo, and was hurting my puzzler trying to understand the connection.
Though when I first went to Scotland I kept singing songs from Brigadoon
Go home

Go home
Go home

If I have to suffer from the earworm, everybody has to suffer from the earworm!
The big apartment store is definitely gone.
Yeah, I was there when they imploded that. I like that library. I usually went there instead of the University library. I need to go back now that I have a decent camera and document the old 'hood.
LOL Art Show, A Benefit For Partners in Reading
I Can Has Cheezburger? along with curator Marianne Goldin are organizing a LOL Art Show which takes place this Thursday, October 23rd at Varnish Fine Art in San Francisco. The art show and silent auction is a benefit for Partners in Reading which helps with adult literacy. Advance tickets for the LOL Art Show are now on sale.
This show is comprised of artists from around the world: professionals, students, and lovers of art. There are painters, draughtspeople, comic artists, sculptors, glass artists, media artists, musicians and conceptual artists. All these individuals responded to an open call for a very new kind of art show. Their work creates a visual vocabulary required for the concept of LOLcat art to exist.
This is one of the reasons why it's fun to run in the Nike Womens Marathon in SF. Kat and I walked the half-marathon a couple years ago. Hee!
