OMG It's New Year's Eve Already?!

I just was not prepared this year and they're already celebrating in India!

Here, then, are the perfect words to ring in 2009:


"Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles (words and music by George Harrison)

Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say

It's all right



Hope 2009 is a great one for you!

The Sweet Bruising

I ran across this in a Vanity Fair blog post just before the De La Hoya - Pacquiao fight (which was sad, BTW):

Boxing’s nickname, “the sweet science of bruising,” was coined in Boxiana, a monthly journal about the London prizering begun in 1812.

So that's where "the sweet science" comes from. Not sweet for DLH though, so sad, so very sad!

The Better Half Totally Agrees

Coldplay Are A Bunch Of Cheats!

So, Chris Martin and the boys from Coldplay are being sued by Joe Satriani, the Guirar God worshipped by such luminaries as my old suite-mate Kerry Denver.

According to Joe, Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" sounds too much like his "If I Could Fly." After watching this video on The Huffington Post (really? HuffPo?) I think I agree with Joe on this one...

I'm F**king Neil Patrick Harris

The Better Half found this on her friend Amy Sullivan's Facebook page: Prop 8 - The Musical (starring Jack Black, John C. Reilly, Allison Janney, Maya Rudolph, Kathy Najimy, Andy Richter, many more that I couldn't quite catch...and the incomparable Neil Patrick Harris).

This could be the next I'm F**king Matt Damon-esque viral hit!

You heard it here first...well third...

BTW, isn't this all a bit of "too little too late"? Where was all this when we needed it?
