Mysterious Bruises
How are we getting these? We figure we are either slam dancing or someone is beating us with a sock of pennies in our sleep.
The Bass in Soul to Squeeze
It makes us want to turn up the bass

Finding Out That A TV Show You Thought Was Cancelled Years Ago Is Still On
Were we alone in the misguided belief that The George Lopez Show was no longer on? However the real shock is that people are watching it, who are these people?
Taste Of Cherry
We never knew that watching a car driving around the hills of Tehran could be so mesmerizing and entertaining.
Awkwardness
Lets face it there is a lot more awkward situations then comfortable ones in life so we say embrace the awkward. So the next time you are in an awkward situation point it out and celebrate it. What is the worst thing that can happen? Because once things are awkward they are awkward it is just like being wet. And at the very least it will give us something to bond over.
The Last 3 Minutes of Track 15 on Beck’s The Information
It is Dave Eggers and Spike Jonze discussing what the ultimate record that ever could possibly be made would sound like. What do you think it would sound like?

The God Complex Speech From Malice
Brilliantly written by Aaron Sorkin and acted by Alec Baldwin plus throw in Peter Gallagher and his mighty eyebrows.
Will Lyman
He is without a doubt our favorite narrator from his work on Frontline to his star turning narration in Little Children we can’t get enough of his dry matter of fact delivery and rich deep voice.
Zest
Of the citrus variety.
Cinematography
Far too often overlooked we want to know why this craft is not considered up there with directing, acting, and writing?
Monocles
We think if you have astigmatism in only one eye that you should show some style and wear one.
30 Rock
We have always had a bit of a love hate relationship with Tina Fey but this show is definitely in the love column plus how could you not love a show that has Ghostface as a guest star not once but twice.
Soda In Glass Bottles
This is how soda was meant to be drank not only does the soda get colder but we are big fans of the old tyme feel we get.
Artists Who Are Doing Their Own Thing
We are talking about the people who are giving us what we need and not what we want.

Being Kicked Off a Jury
It is without a doubt the most satisfying rejection that we have experienced in a long time.
The Way Nobody Says “Stupid Fucking White Man” in Dead Man
This pretty much speaks for itself.
Finally Settling The Debate, The Illusionist or The Prestige
The Prestige hands down.
Sorbet
This stuff is the ultimate palate cleanser and it should be incorporated into every meal.

Bruce Campbell’s Old Spice Commercial
We were confused at first but that eventually subsided and we came to understand the brilliance of it all.
Bus Stops
They really are the only places where the elderly and goth kids can come together anymore.
Wes Anderson’s Films
Each one is a wonderful little world that we would love to live in.
S.O.S. by Rhiana
Our brain says no but our feet says Yes, Yes, Yes!
Neil DeGrasse Tyson
He is without a doubt the hippest astrophysics on the block and we love what he has done as the host of NOVA.

French Toast
This stuff really is Toast 2.0.
David Bowie’s Hair in Labyrinth
If you have seen it then it will forever be burned into your mind’s eye, if you haven’t then prepare yourself to be amazed, stupefied, and left wondering how many laws of physics have to be broken to make hair look that way.
Guava Jelly
It is like other jelly’s younger and much hipper sibling.
The Kids In The Hall
Canadian sketch comedy has always been our favorite type; it makes more sense then the British verity and is much more daring then the United States kind, and these guys are the best the Great White North has to offer.
No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain
If you like to watch a cynical smart ass cook travel to all sorts of locations and eat a lot of exotic and not so exotic foods, not to mention drink a whole bunch, all delivered with a side of equal parts attitude and sincerity as well as peppered with a bunch of pop culture references, like we do then this is the travel show for you.
Being Roughly 65% Through a Good Book
At this point you usually are far enough along in the book to have the lay of the land but still have a good chunk of the journey a head of you to look forward to.
Speedos
We say it is about time the US gets over its out of date puritanical attitudes and embrace what the rest of the world has known for a long time now.
Feral
This is one of our favorite adjectives out there. Try throwing it into your daily conversations and just see how much cooler people think you are.
Waking Up at 5:30 am For No Reason
You will get more done before 6:00 am then you usually do.
Crystal Geyser Mineral Water
We are still not sure what essence of natural berry, orange, lime, or lemon is but we are sure glad they know how to get it and put it in water.
Being Completely Mislead By a Movie’s Marketing Campaign
We know that for the most part this is a bad thing but on the rare occasions that you go in expecting one thing and then instead end up seeing a film that totally blows you away, then that is when being mislead by advertising is a very good thing.
Milhouse Van Houten
Really people is it not high time that we all give it up to The House?
This stuff really is Toast 2.0.

James Brown Live In Boston 1968
We can’t think of any performer today that can hold a candle to his showmanship, style, charisma, and political influence.
Alec Baldwin
Have you seen his work lately? He is rocking dramas and comedies alike, and he sure can drop some sweet narration on you too.
Top 10 Lists
The end of the year is always full of these lists of varying length and subject. So after seeing and hearing some other people’s lists of their favorite songs of 2006 we wanted to see if we could make one too. So here we go:
1.I Want You-Fiona Apple
2.Whoo! Alright-Yeah…Uh Huh-The Rapture
3.The Champ-Ghostface
4.The Island, Come And See, The Landlord's Daughter, You'll Not Feel The Drowning-The Decemberists
5.Turn Into-Yeah Yeah Yeahs
6.The Other Side of Mt. Heart Attack-Liars
7.Cellphone’s Dead-Beck
8.On the Radio-Regina Spektor
9.Together-The Raconteurs
10.Kilo-Ghostface
Wow that was harder then it looked.
The House Of The Rising Sun
We suggest you spend the afternoon searching the internet looking for different covers and versions of this song then sit back and enjoy.
Not Utilizing Some Modern Convenience
There is just something heartwarming about a person who still uses a walkman opposed to an ipod, or someone who refuses to use rss reader. All we have to say is keep up the good work.
Stomp The Yard Trailer
If this trailer is any evidence then this will unequivocally be the greatest step dance film of all time.
