Why pot gives you the munchies:
Columbia University scientists are gaining a new understanding of why marijuana gives you the munchies, hopefully eventually leading to new approaches to treating obesity. Neat.

GAP and Spike Jonze deserve each other.
Plus, everyone loves the Gorillaz live.
Plus, when someone asks you if you wore the same clothes the day before:
"Bitch, I didn't wear these clothes yesterday!"
"Fuck you, I didn't wear these clothes yesterday"
Both, appropriate responses. Word.

Mahna Mahna
Saturday, December 17
remember that Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper commercial... and the Mahna Mahna song? Evidently, according to Wikipedia... well, read for yourself:
"Mah Na Mah Na" is a well-known song, written in 1968 by Piero Umiliani as a soundtrack for the softcore documentary Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso (Sweden, Hell and Heaven) about sexual activity in Sweden, and was played under a portrayal of lesbian BDSM.

Skydiver Survives Face-First Fall
Thursday, December 15
Skydiver lives after parachute fails to open.
Her fall was videotaped and she was able to watch it, "without qualms." ...
" 'I wanted to watch it,' said Richardson. 'And the whole reason I'm comfortable with watching it because I know how it ends.' "

falling up, holding on, speeding, I am dizzy: 67 in a 35
rain clouds of fever

You had charm and a quick scattering way of breathing
Spreading things I didn't believe in across the night sky
Unfolding flowers and releasing their sounds into heaven
And maybe I need some time to come back to that place
I left when you left, I've been sitting under a small tree
Waiting for the last word, Waiting for the change
The change -- it's never coming
And yet I promised myself to remember you
Against the darkness and the dirt
Walking in cold water, across the waves
Ignoring all the delicate flowers
Of course I need someone, but I need to let this go
You had charm and a quick scattering way of breathing
You could draw a light out of the sky
And place it at my feet
But now it's time to rest under this blanket
Sleep to dream, and dream to love
And practice opening doors, spreading specks of light
Across the sky, across your door
Into the blank slate of the future

Vegas, Dissertation, Ice-storms, Vegas, Dissertation, Exams to 'TA'...
Wednesday, December 7
last week was t-shirt weather, but I wore my leather jacket because it makes me feel good... but today is freezing rain and a bleak bleak view out of my office window. Again with the caffeine to keep me alert. Bad juju. I need sleep and warmth...

Anyone been watching Family Guy recently?: Peanut Butter Jelly Time
Thursday, December 1
Too much caffiene from one measley Irish Breakfast tea, plus working on a paper all day, has left me lightheaded. Time for food and something mindless for awhile. I think I have a Jack Black movie on the Tivo... Booyakasha.
