I found this video last night when I was supposed to be working on my paper. It makes me really happy: I never knew much about the Marx Brothers, and I had no idea they were so musically inclined. I think my favorite is Harpo, not only because he was really good at harp butContinue reading “Harpo and Chico play a duet”

rock and ROLL
Pete Townshend’s birthday was 2 days ago and I FORGOT! I blame my midterm. HAPPY LATE PETE DAY! I found this video awhile back; not sure why no one else seems to have seen it but I find it HILARIOUS. Old Man Pete is such a spazz! I also think it’s funny how excited heContinue reading “rock and ROLL”
Oh, YouTube. No wonder I never get any studying done.
In my opinion, there is no cooler actor alive than Jack Nicholson. Or ever, for that matter. He just beats them all. I’ve seen a good number of his movies, but still on the to-watch list are The Last Detail, The King of Marvin Gardens, Psych-Out (crazy 60s psychedelia), Carnal Knowledge (risque 70s sex movie),Continue reading “Oh, YouTube.

Recapping the plot for those who came in late, patty-cake, talking camels/cows, and Micky Dolenz imitatingContinue reading “i like to make random connections between movies and tv shows”

A few key reasons: They are incredibly well-dressed They love paisley/floral/decorative prints Their videos remind me of us Ahh, this band has been a source of so many great times over the past 3 years. SinceContinue reading “lipstick and callous and fishnets and malice”
heeere i come to save the day
I really want to see Man on the Moon again. I was watching some Taxi, which then led me to watching Andy Kaufman videos on YouTube, which really made me want to watch Man on the Moon. If you don’t know much about Andy Kaufman, you should go watch a bunch of videos of him…andContinue reading “heeere i come to save the day”
