I know everyone has written about, posted, or tweeted this video in the last few days, but I do love it so much.
The music is BEGGING for a cool tribal fusion-y choreography. There’s a 3/4 shimmy in there, and slow up-to-down figure 8 in the chorus, no? Time to break out [...]

I was taking a break the other day and following some fun Twitter links to a story about Eddie Izzard’s marathon of marathons, which is a really cool and inspiring story. (Sorry, I don’t remember who tweeted it first!) This is just days after I watched “Circle” again, and nearly spilled my wine laughing at [...]

A few fun, fantastic, and important things of note from the weekend:

WARNING: SPOILER!
I have a few friends that are just starting Battlestar Galactica now. If this is you, don’t watch this video! Only those that are caught up through the last few episodes should watch this. But if you do, you may hurt yourself laughing at the worst product placement EVAR. I don’t know [...]
