I'm reading a whole bunch of comics for review.

Someday I might get around to reading:

I'm about to watch:

I'm obsessively listening to:

I recently wrote:

I'm playing with:

I'm inordinately fond of:

[Background: An anime company sent me a large, glossy pink lollipop as a promo for an upcoming series. Editor Josh noticed it on one of his frequent strolls past my desk.]

Me: Want a giant lollipop?

Josh: Oh, the things I could do with that.

Me: Do them. I don't want it.

Josh: [Picks up the lollipop and paddles his own ass with it.] Oh, crap, my ass broke your lollipop.

Me: Your ass breaks many things.

Josh: Hearts, mostly.

Josh: Okay, everybody. I just want to point out that five minutes after I emailed Weird Al about [secret project], I got a response from him saying "Sounds cool. I'm totally in."

Me: Awesome.

Josh: But mostly, I just want everybody to know that I GOT EMAIL FROM WEIRD AL.

Me: You're my hero. I wish I was you.

Josh: I am totally my own hero right now. I wish *I* was me.

[Which is a lot less entertainingly sexually-harrassy than most of the things he says, but does sort of sum up the fact that we have surprisingly cool jobs where we get to interact with interesting people and call it work. In other news, I'm supposed to meet and interview Brendan Fraser in person later this week. So I get to be my own hero too.]

I'm-a feelin': cheerful

I wish the people here at Saltmine U. had a sense of humor like that. Sigh. :)

*SPORFLE* Ass! Breaking lollipop! XD

Also, good luck with the Fraser interview! I can say afterward that I've been in the LJ of someone who talked to the dude. ;D

Brendan Fraser: Dream Gynecologist!

(yes, I know, it was actually Mel Gibson in that SNL sketch, but Brendan Fraser is my "dream gynecologist". Ok, actually, I wouldn't really want him as my gynecologist, but...um, yeah).

Yay for you for getting to interview him! :-)

Oh, good, now the world may finally discover if his "agent" has pictures of him with a goat or a horse, since that seems to be the only explanation for at least half of his cinematic ouvre...

BRENDAN FRASER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! ASK HIM WHY HE'S SO HOT!!!!!!!!!!!

and why are you listening to Johnny Cash??

	From: rollick	Date: May 14th, 2008 05:32 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Why aren't YOU?

I was looking for a song on YouTube, and I ran across his cover of it. And then I started listening to other Cash songs on YouTube, which brought me back to this one, which I'd heard before, and which is really, really good. Also, it's a freaking NINE INCH NAILS cover. And his version is so much better than the original.
