Musty TV
My friend Rain has a blog now of her wildly popular mailing list. It’s called Musty TV, and it should be considered required reading.

I Am Roast Beef
Best thing ever on teh intarweb: Achewood. It’s a comic strip by Chris Onstad, and it’s just about genius. He’s got a perfect sense of timing, and he knows how to go from dark humor to potty humor to just nonsensical stuff. You’ve got to check out the archives and follow it for a while…

Is That a Leg?
I’m a big fan of the Straight Dope website and its message boards, and have been a member for a couple of years. This post, in a thread about “Funny things said during lovemaking” is probably the single funniest thing I’ve ever read on the internet.

E3

After that, there’s an explosive decompression as we…

Elevator Lady
Tonight was the Pixies show at UC Davis. The show ended a little over an hour ago, and I’m just now regaining my hearing. This was a really big deal. Big reunion tour after something like 10 years, tickets sold out in less than five minutes. My friend Matt bought tickets off ebay and we…
