Modern Antiques
Church Key Many a barbecue and tailgate party was ruined in the pre-pop top days when it was discovered that no one had remembered to bring a church key to the proceedings. The pointy end punctured beer (and soda pop) cans open – one hole for pouring, one for a vent. The rounded end was [...]
Corrections
A writer at the New York Times accidentally wrote that EB White worked at The New Yorker for 5 centuries, not decades. A correction was published, and of course the wags are now having their way: An earlier version of this article misidentified the number of good books written by Jack Kerouac. It is zero. [...]
Dressed for Success
Why did Missouri teen Maura Pozek make her prom dress out of cardboard and paper bags? Because after fashioning the previous two years' outfits out of Doritos bags and soda can tabs, “I had to top myself somehow.” This would be a cool kid to meet, I bet.

The fact that a screechy white-boy rap band could conceive of a video so unusual and artistic should’ve been a good indication than there was a lot [...]
Obi-Wan Kenobi in the News
And a follow up “Revenge of the 5th” post, though like most good Star Wars fans, I don’t recognise the prequels. Sean O’Neal writes the news reports for the AVClub, and he does it very, very well. I find myself reading items for topics that have no interest to me, just to see what kind [...]
The Tauntaun Song
May the fourth, etc. Last month I participated in A Musical Emergency, which is a loose collective of theater and music folks in SF that turns popular stories or movies into full length musicals. They divide the story up into bite sized chunks and everyone’s responsible for telling their part of the story however they [...]
Mad Men Bowling
If you ever wanted to see Weird Al face off against Don Draper in bowling, your dreams have come true. I don’t bowl, but I do watch Mad Men, so this clip was an acceptable risk of my time. Turns out, it was far more entertaining than it had any right to be. I guess [...]
