Netflix is Faaaaantastic

Punk: Attitude and Punk: Attitude Bonus Materials, both shipped yesterday, bonus materials scheduled to arrive today, actual documentary: Saturday. I have no idear. This also arrives today, should be full of British capering, prominent Irish "that guy," Dumbledore Drakoulias, and the main character has at least one X up on Vin Diesel.

Mark Kozelek is an odd dude, but hey, I'd buy it. I also didn't know that he was in Stillwater. Feeeeeevah Daaaaaaawg.

GQ is not in touch with life outside of clothes.

In the world of sports, some teams played games against each other, some won, some lost. Football begins tonight, I'll try and watch my requisite 5 minutes, but it is a super fantastic kickoff spectacular, so the NFL's house band will probably play, supported by Army of Me.

This has got to be the Brit GQ: "Pierce Brosnan picked up the editor's special award. The lifetime achievement award went to Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music and the outstanding contribution award went to Bob Geldof." Yeah, and Michael Caine performed "Get a Bloomin' Move On!" for the finale, supported by a chorus of Justin Hawkins, the guy from Bloc Party, and the Queeeeen.

I think Colm Meaney is a delicious potato dish that goes well with corned beef and cabbage. And Michael Gambon is a preparation of lamb, if I remember correctly. I actually saw Gambon play a palsied old man in Pinter play once.

That's a great pic of Earl.

Oh, the Astros are the new Marlins.

According to Dr Clarke, Martin Robert "Ugly Ankle Tattoo" Cavanagh, is getting married on Kent Island sometime soon and called the Phi Delts trying to hire some of them for $100 to drive drunk people around. I said, "What a sleazeball," and Dr Clarke chortled. No word if Tax Stream LLC is actually Bob's wedding car service or not.

Yeah, and I wasn't invited.

DCist has a fantastic picture of Cornel West, who I like though my dad does not.

This is a review of the Hambon in "The Caretaker." Patric k Marber, who apparently is someone, directed.

Yeah, $20 is a lot for a band that consistently sounds like they're blowing out your speakers... on purpose.

Dunno if you've been over to ma other blog, but Little Quill is documenterifying The Wrens, and I think they're filming Saturday.

That would be "Cash Machine."

That's what I thought, I got a bunch of their stuff last night.

Cornell West and I both like pizza, we'll always have that.

Good wrens write up, although you forgot to mention your ubercool roommate who blares the disc ad nauseum.

They sound... great.

Speaking of GQ, Threadless has some cool new stuff - haven't been there in awhile. The Katrina chari-tee is pretty cool, though depressing.

I also dig Jesus and our pal Satan old-timey boxing. Hm... no size L left.

I also like some new Built By Wendy stuff. The Hanson brothers tee is badass, and so is Wrangler 47 western shirt. Like China, they're still cool, right?
