Fire & Rain

Pandora just selected this song to go with my “Simon & Garfunkel” station.

Seems pretty appropriate actually; today marks one month since my uncle died. I’ve been thinking about him a lot lately. I wish I could have spent just one more Sunday with him, playing dominoes and eating delicious sandwiches. I always thought I’d see him again soon. Not so much.

Thanks James Taylor.

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can’t remember who to send it to

I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I’d see you again

Won’t you look down upon me, Jesus
You’ve got to help me make a stand
You’ve just got to see me through another day
My body’s aching and my time is at hand
And I won’t make it any other way

Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I’d see you again

Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it’ll turn your head around
There’s hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I’d see you, baby, one more time again, now

Thought I’d see you one more time again
There’s just a few things coming my way this time around, now
Thought I’d see you, thought I’d see you fire and rain, now

Roller Karussel

Let’s face it: People do stupid things. When your average person falls down walking down the street, that’s not funny. But when someone attempts to do something “extreme” and eats it, yeah, that’s pretty funny. Really it’s just Darwinism at work. And that is why this is HILARIOUS.

New Cypress Hill

Only heard this song once and am already in love with it: Rise Up by Cypress Hill, featuring Tom Morello on guitar. Their new album comes out on April 20 (of course it does – it is Cypress Hill after all!), and I might have to download it.

In the meantime, enjoy this:

For All the Edward Fans

Robert Pattinson was on The Daily Show earlier this week. Things I personally discovered from this interview:

-He’s not that good looking. OK before you lynch me hear me out. There’s something about Edward that draws me in. Obviously it’s just the character in the movie, cuz his real life performance just was NOT doing it for me. Whatever – it’s less competition for all you over-the-top Twilight fans.

-I knew the man was British, but I had NO idea he had THAT thick of a British accent. More power to him as an actor, cuz he does a really good job covering it up on screen. However, accents = sexy, so +1 back to him for that.

-I wanna see Remember me. Again, for the character he plays. Something about the on-screen Robert Pattinson – wtf is it?!? Either way, I’ll probably see this movie during opening week. Hooray for braving the crowds of Edward fans.

Ok that’s all I discovered. Not too much, but in my defense it was only a 7 minute interview. For those of you who missed it, enjoy!

Torvill & Dean: Still My Favorite

I love figure skating. When I was a kid I used to pretend I was a figure skater and spin around on the kitchen floor in my socks. It’s something I myself am not very good at, which makes it even more spectacular to watch. I mean they do these crazy jumps and spins and the footwork too. Even just watching them FLY from one end of the rink to the other is cool. Pairs is pretty awesome, but we already know how I felt about this years pairs competition. So in the meantime while I wait for the ladies’ singles, I had my ice dancing.

Not going to lie, ice dancing is notoriously my least favorite of the 4 varieties. Especially the compuslory dance. I think those judges have their work cut out for them. Just watching people do the same thing over and over again is too much for me, much less evaluating each competitor’s. No thank you!! The original dance can be interesting. There were a couple this year that intrigued me. Of course there was also the one that confused the hell out of me – the Russians doing the Aboriginal Dance. Take a lack of impressive/challenging moves, combined with some RIDICULOUS looking costumes and a premise that already has people offended, and you get this. Seriously, WTF?!

But then last night we got to the free skate. It’s by far my favorite. I saw a few that I liked. Even two that I loved. These of course were Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir’s (Canada) dance to Symphony #5 and Emily Samuelson and Evan Bates’ (USA) dance to Canto Della Terra. Beautiful. Stunning. Amazing.

But still not my all-time favorite.

That award goes to Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean (UK), who were the first people to get all perfect 6.0′s in the artistic impression section of the old scoring system. For technical merit they were split 5.9/6.0. I’m not sure what it is about this dance, but I love it. Even though it’s from 1984 and the picture is horribly grainy, I could watch it over and over again. Maybe it’s the music, maybe it’s the artistry, maybe it’s the incredible synchronization. I don’t know. They start on the ground because their music was too long. Apparently it exceeded the length by 18 seconds, which they discovered they could get around if none of their skates hit the ice until 18 seconds in. Pure perfection. Here it is:

Penguins

I got to see penguins recently. Sadly I didn’t get to play with them. All in all a fun experience, but I wish there had been some actual penguin play time. Here’s the story in photos:

Why I <3 Old Men

Basically, this is the best thing that happened in football this week. Tennessee Titans owner Bud Adams decided to stick it to the Bills after their big win. And since he’s 86, the best way for him to do that apparently was with his hands. Amazing.

Was it worth the $250,000 he was fined? For my entertainment value, absolutely!

Cheating Death

We all know how much I enjoy Stephen Colbert. I also really enjoy his “Cheating Death” segment, as it’s a sure source of comedy. Last night’s edition of this segment was probably one of the funniest bits of all time that I’ve seen from this man. Seriously genius. And so funny that he himself couldn’t keep from laughing. Enjoy!
