Check Out Inertia by Montrose
I just got an email about a friend-of-a-friend’s new CD. It’s by a musician out of Dallas, TX., called Montrose. I just listened to samples from the CD on his site and I was impressed with what I heard. Go check him out. Here’s a pretty good description of the CD from CD Baby: The… Continue reading Check Out Inertia by Montrose
Anil Makes it Plain to the Search Optimization Crew
Anil Dash just wrote a little something about the SEO contest he won. The best part is this quote: There’s a part of me that’s always felt that, if you’re a professional at a certain trade, and I can come in as an amateur and do better than you, then you probably suck. Generally, it’s… Continue reading Anil Makes it Plain to the Search Optimization Crew
Barack Obama: A Star is Born
I missed Obama’s speech live but was moved to find a link to it after reading all the raves about it on the convention bloggers’ sites. (Here’s the link to video of Obama’s keynote address[Real] and links to Windows Media: Lo | Hi | Audio) The consensus seems to be that he stole the show… Continue reading Barack Obama: A Star is Born
Check Out ‘Trading Spouses’
I caught the encore presentation of the first episode of Fox’s new show ‘Trading Spouses‘ last night and I’m hooked. Here’s a little bit about the first ‘trade’ (via Culture Critic Seeks Home) As a budding anthropologist, I could not help but read this as an unabashed look at race and class in America. A… Continue reading Check Out ‘Trading Spouses’
Halle, Halle, Halle…
I’ve been a fool. For years I’ve been saying that Halle Berry was pretty, beautiful, fine, cold-blooded, fire as hell (as my old college roommate would say), etc., but that despite all of that she had little sex appeal. My trip to my mailbox to get the latest issue of GQ just now has made… Continue reading Halle, Halle, Halle…
Speaking of Documentaries…
A friend of mine just recommended ‘The Corporation‘.to me. After seeing the trailer its definitely on my list. Here’s what it’s about: One hundred and fifty years ago, the corporation was a relatively insignificant entity. Today, it is a vivid, dramatic and pervasive presence in all our lives. Like the Church, the Monarchy and the… Continue reading Speaking of Documentaries…
‘Fahrenheit’ Sets Record for Documentaries
‘Fahrenheit 9/11‘ just broke the $100 million mark, setting a new record for a documentary. I just heard a report on CNN’s ‘The Biz’ which said that Michael Moore pointed out that ‘Fahrenheit’ has now made more than any Disney release this year. I wonder how Michael Eisner is feeling about refusing to distribute ‘Fahrenheit’… Continue reading ‘Fahrenheit’ Sets Record for Documentaries
Technorati’s Convention Bloggers Coverage
Technorati, which is sporting a new design, has a new feature which is tracking the Democratic convention bloggers, as well as other bloggers from the Right and the Left. It’s formatted in a 3 column layout a la WatchBlog. It looks like a good way to keep up with what’s being said, although some of… Continue reading Technorati’s Convention Bloggers Coverage
Diggin’ in the Crates: Some Brazilian Music
I’m finally getting around to doing the Radio.Blog post I got inspired to do back when I wrote about the Brazilian music guides. There’s a variety of styles here from: Samba Reggae, MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), Axé, Samba, Hip Hop, and a little Bossa Nova. Grab a caipirinha and enjoy!. Track listing and a few… Continue reading Diggin’ in the Crates: Some Brazilian Music
