New Land of Milk and Honey

As soon as I saw one, I always figured the fate of mankind would tie to the segway, er...Gyroscopics.

Might as well face it. Happy Valentine's Day! And for the bitter ones....Happy Single Awareness Day! It's really just a greeting card holiday, so put up or shut up.

Crazy Ex-Boyfriend

Gotta case of 'em.

Valentine's Day

Going to see this tonight, hope it's good. Maybe if I can get over the fact that Taylor Swift's in it, and she's all over Team Jake (or, as I like to call him, Jailbait):

Shout Out Louds

I have been in love with this band since Howl Howl Gaff Gaff (2005). I don't get why they aren't bigger than the Super Bowl by now. Adam Olenius is sort of unreal, compared to the super-cool looking, tight-jean wearing, detached rock boys infecting the scene. I love him:

Super Bowl or pray?

When the TV stops working right before the big game, a group of teens wonder, "What would Jesus do?"

Snow

You need to go away

I wanna go and play

But there you are

So cold

Bitter

Endless

Vacant

Chilly

Messy

Dirty

Icy

Slippery

When agitated

Frigid

Impossible

To get used to

I am 100% Minnesotan

But this is ridiculous

I am so over you

I'm so broke, it ain't a joke.

When I get a piece, it ain't too long,

Phoenix Phenom > Black Eyed Peas

So, here's the story of how Black Eyed Peas allegedly ripped off Phoenix Phenom to make "Boom Boom Pow":

http://www.prefixmag.com/news/black-eyed-peas-accused-of-stealing-boom-boom-pow/36974/

Which appears likely, since Fergie ripped off two JJ Fad songs to make "Fergilicious":

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JJ_Fad

I stumbled upon this because Phoenix Phenom's song reminded me of JJ Fad's "Supersonic," which I used to rock out to before I was a double digit:

Eve the Cat

What a poser.

Iceball

I have the coolest peeps.

Pet Rock
