White House Unbuttons Formal Dress Code - New York... →
An interesting look at White House dress codes. Damn, you’d never think Bush was such a stickler.
City Fits, Eventually, for New Arrivals - New York... →
I’d say it took me a week or two to feel comfortable in New York City, but that was because I had lived there for a summer and had pre-existing groups of friends.
Daily Routines: Barack Obama →
Sex and The City (Recession Edition!) →
I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that these people exist, or the fact that the New York Times did a story on them.
Slightly less rich gold diggers bitch about their Bergdorf allowances being cut while drinking martinis.
krlx Radio →
You should all listen to my sister Melley’s radio show, happening right now. Current playing Jose Gonzalez’s cover of The Knife’s “Heartbeats.” Every Hump Day at 10 AM.
Photographer Michael Lavine →
Michael Lavine recalling Kurt Cobain: “I remember Kurt telling me that the reason that he loved Courtney so much was that she was the only girl he knew that would stand up at a party and smash a glass table to bits just for the hell of it. I remember thinking that was a pretty odd reason to love someone.”
Though Courtney Love should probably be added to the 50 Most Loathsome...
Do you talk too much? →
Yeah, I do.
THE BEAST 50 MOST LOATHSOME PEOPLE IN AMERICA,... →
This is great, I definitely loathe most of these people. Can you guess who’s #1? I bet you can. Bad timing on #38.
Joss Whedon: 'I would have put "Dollhouse" on... →
My friend Lauren just asked me to record the premiere of Joss Whedon’s new show Dollhouse on February 13th because she’ll be out of town. I thought she must have some mistake, why Fox again snub Joss Whedon and put his show on at a 9 pm time slot on a Friday. Lauren quickly sent me this article after I bitched for a few minutes on gchat. Apparently Whedon digs the new time...

I just read Rabbit, Run a few months ago. R.I.P.
Op-Ed Columnist - Will Obama Save Liberalism? -... →
This is William Kristol’s last column.
Hallelujah! Thank God this dimwit no longer has a voice in the NYT. The first sentence of his last article really sums up why he is such a jackass.

Berlin Travel Journal (01.06.09)
Below is an excerpt from my travel journal.
Entering my new room I immediately began to ponder my decision of switching rooms as my gaze falls on the backside of a small disheveled looking man with a spoon and a rather large knife protruding from the back pocket of his Lee jeans. The previous night I had drank and played pool with an Australian fellow named Sam who apparently guts chickens for...

PepsiCo Figures Tropicana’s Carbon Footprint - New... →
Pepsi calculated that 3.75 pounds of carbon dioxide are emitted into the atmosphere for every half-gallon carton of orange juice. Holy shit. That’s like, a lot of fucking carbon dioxide. When I think of juice I don’t usually think, man, I bet this juice is terrible for the environment. I wonder what the carbon footprint is of non-organic products. For instance, what is the carbon...
The Wire, On Sale - Vulture - New York Magazine →
$82 bucks for the best television series in history on DVD. I like how this is filed under: THE WIRE, DVDS, OBSESSIVE DORKS, WE ALREADY BOUGHT OURS on Vulture, but they clearly stole the tip from Kottke.org.
The real question is, should I buy like 10 of these and then sell them on Ebay?
Official Gmail Blog: Watch videos right in Gmail... →
I always have like 20 tabs open at once, and friends are constantly sending me youtube links to completely unimportant but totally hilarious videos via gchat. One less window to open.
