We. Are. Golden.



I'm pretty sure everyone wishes that they had a soundtrack to their lives. I do. I really, really do. That would be so cool. It would also completely validate the already melodramatic thoughts I have in my brain everyday.

Along that same vein, I've always dreamed of making a hilarious, but heart-felt music video with friends. I mean, who hasn't? Sooo, as my departure approached last spring, I decided that I had to do a music video with my two best guys/gays, Nate and Dustin. What better time than just before I dramatically depart for the wilds of Latin America (or something like that)?

So, we got together on an unseasonably cold (you can't tell from my outfit but I was FREEZING) spring afternoon and made a video to Mika's "Happy Ending". Nate learned how to edit and put it all together in ONE day. He and Dustin Skyped me for the premier two nights ago...I've been gone for almost two months now and I think this is the part where I start feeling a little home-sick from time to time and reflecting on the things and people I miss. I am so happy to be here, but sometimes, when a Friday night (or a Tuesday or a Wednesday...) rolls around, I'd like nothing more than to be giggling between my two favorite boys. Needless to say, this brought tears to my eyes.

The following video was improv'd on the spot, is completely cheesy, over-the-top, and in my opinion, a dorktastic masterpiece. Enjoy! (Oh, and there's 9 minutes of this cheese, so don't stop watching after the first song!)


PS- My friends don't do coke...those double image shots are from a photo project that Nate did.

Are you READY?!



Every time I see ads for "ready.gov", I feel weird; not in that "Government, stop! You're EMBARRASSING me!" kind of way, but in the "I think this is an example of fear mongering" kind of way.

I'm glad someone has decided to make fun of it...

Check out Homeland.gov.safenow.org, an amusing commentary on some of the "WARNING" notices on ready.gov.

GCar


So, I know I'm many days and many dollars short on this realization, but in the world of ME, this just in: George Carlin is comic brilliance defined.

The other night I spent an hour and a half just watching clips of his stand-up on youtube and was amazed by the content of his material. In my opinion (it is my blog, after all), really good humor comes from incredibly perceptive minds, and never is that more evident than in Carlin's brand of comedy. He uses this perceptiveness and farce to shed light on our ridiculous and ultimately destructive human behavior.

Here are some highlights...

We Like War


You Have No Rights


Stuff

Our Similarities


War On Homlessness
