Since the year is almost to an end... I now present the CDs that I couldn't stop listening to this past year (and yeah, I know some of them came out last year):



They're in no particular order... but the Sigur Ros was probably my absolute favorite of the bunch...

Michael Jackson Baby Drop is about the funniest thing I've seen lately...

This is terribly sad. Stereolab has been one of my favorite bands for most of my adult life. They've been absolutely brilliant on every album they've ever done.

I'm sure that the band will go on, but one of my favorite things about their sound has always been the blending of the vocals of Laetitia Sadler and Mary Hansen. And now Mary's not gonna be there anymore...

:(

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miramax is foolishly not promoting the movie Equilibrium and didn't release it on very many screens across the country.

I saw the trailer on Apple's website a few days ago and thought it looked kinda keen. Then Aint It Cool News starting raving about how good it was. So, I went to see it today.

HOLY SHIT! Miramax is run by idiots. This movie totally fucking ROCKS. Christian Bale, dark dystopic future and amazing action. There are some of the best filmed action sequences I've ever seen in any movie. And it's a really intelligent film. And Christian Bale is about the hottest man on the entire planet. And there's a really cute puppy in it.

Seriously, before this movie disappears from the theaters, go see it!! NOW!!!

Okay.... I'm gonna see this just cuz I love the concept of Bollywood meets Grease in that one scene...

One should be careful what one wishes for...

I've been bitching because New Orleans doesn't (as far as I can tell) have any sort of electroclash nite at any bar. So... last nite, a friend of mine who manages a bar calls me out of the blue and offers me a job DJ'ing one. Um... I don't know how to be a DJ...

I have such disgust for the tactics and commercials of the Republican party in the current Louisiana Senate election, that I will NEVER in my life ever consider voting for ANY Republican candidate again.

And I hope Suzanne Haik-Terrell dies soon of a terrible lingering illness. Or manages to be impaled by a large piece of metal for several hours before she dies...

It's about damned time... And I'm so very proud of the fact that one of my best friends, Brian, is one of the attornies working on the case.

So, last nite, I ducked into Sav A Center to buy a bottle of wine. And just as I'm grabbing the wine off the shelf, they announce over the intercom, "Attention shoppers, we will be closing in 5 minutes. Thank you for shopping at our 24 Hour Sav A Center."

I was a bit confused...
