Glen Campbell – Times Like These

Antiques Web Show, Vol. 2

This is one of my favorite bands. They were sort of popular in the latter half of the 80s, yet almost no one knows who they are. This album is marvelous.

Get it here.

Holi crap!

Ever since taking a Bollywood class at Pratt, I’ve been really fascinated by the Indian holiday, Holi (Festival of Colors). Any holiday that involves a) dancing in the streets b) throwing powdered pigments of bright colors at eachother and c) losing one’s inhibitions, sounds like a pretty goddamn good time to me. Holi also marks the welcoming of Spring and good triumphing over evil. Epic! Check out these amazing photos I saw from the Boston Globe (I know, it was last March, but better late than never). Let’s go next year! InDia SpRinG BrEaK 2k9!!!

“GENIUS KID SAVES WORLD”… so it should read.

So this teenage kid just solved the problem of long decomposition periods in almost all commercial plastics. And he’s still in highschool.

Amazing.

Thanks to Mr. Henry Marshall Preston Northington for the find.

With Friends Like These…

Karin Bubaš is a Canadian artist whose recent show “With Friends Like These…” is a collection of soft pastel drawings of characters from The Hills. Awesome! She also takes some beautiful photographs and her previous drawings were of characters on Dynasty. Read an interview with her on jbrecords.

What I’ve always known has finally been proven. Nice guys finish last- and assholes live forever.

“Henry Allingham’s explanation for his amazing longevity was “cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women.” Which doesn’t mean you should run out and buy a fifth of Jack Daniel’s just yet.

“…the most surprising finding of Dr. Friedman’s—who was working in California, of all places—was the curious relationship between cheerfulness and longevity. Defining cheerfulness as optimism plus a sense of humor, Friedman found his cheerful subjects lived relatively shorter lives in comparison to subjects with less sunny outlooks.

“…optimists are less likely to react with appropriate caution to troubling health symptoms, assuming the best and moving heedlessly along. For another, the optimist’s worldview might capsize him in the face of life’s more difficult moments—optimists just don’t account for the usual grim possibilities.”
