I'm watching Ice Road Truckers. It could be subtitled "Extreme Canadian Accents".

Hivemind question:
I have to make a few updates to a comparision exercise:
Currently:
actresses: Renée Zellweger, Reese Witherspoon
singers: Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys
songs of: Green Day, Jack Johnson
comic actors: Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler
I think Reese, Alicia, and Green Day can probably stay.
My standard replacement for Jim Carrey is Will Ferrell.
Suggestions for the others?

For Adam Sandler, that SNL dick in a box guy? Andy Samberg. Maybe they just have similar names.

I'm not too sure what you're looking for. Is it more contemporary references? If so, I can't help--Green Day is after my time, let alone anyone else!!
Speaking of Green Day, here's a funny video of Green Day and Stephen Colbert spoofing on Keyboard Cat.

Today was as expected.
Poor mac.
Wells Fargo is annoying me. I want to check online on my mortgage payments. But it isn't designed (that I can find) to allow for you to just have a mortgage. I don't have an ATM PIN! It's a MORTGAGE. Morons.
And Wachovia doesn't show signs of a withdrawl. Makes me cranky. I'll see if it shows up tomorrow and then call.

That reminds me--I have to check my mail when I get home. If my replacement Mastercard isn't there, I'm going to call Household to find out where it is, since it expired yesterday.

Basically, yeah. I know college kids probably still know who these people are, they just seem a little dated. And this book won't be used for at least another year or so.
On a related note, are there any jazz musiciens that are better known than the Marsalis bros? I assume not.

Chris Botti. (Although he's more a contemporary jazz, but he's definitely fairly high profile right now.)
