Why does the wind rustle instead of something else?
The color of glass on my tongue.
And frustrations.

Oncologists only talk to advanced cancer patients 37% of the time about the "end-of-life." I think that is so sad, that our society is so pro-life and death-phobic that doctors neglect to discuss such an important event humanely with their patients. I first heard about this on the News Hour on PBS but it's gotten more play in the press recently, which I think is so important.
I hope the NIMH study on whether physicians discuss end-of-life issues gets a lot more press and sparks a greater discussion in American households.

Photos from my family trip to Grand Lake for the 4th of July (see also the Flickr Slideshow).
I want to share here a touching post about writing that a supervisor of mine wrote, I stubled upon it when searching for her email address.

To save you time, and to waste more of mine online, I have now out-nerded myself. I now have a fully operational life stream, tumbleblog, and procrastination machine.
Phrase of the Day: Nuke the Fridge
Nuke the Fridge
Sample usage: "Man, when Peter Parker started doing the emo dance in Spider-Man 3, that franchise officially nuked the fridge."
Everyone start using it so it'll become even more annoying and we can go back to using Jump the Shark, like the good ol' days

Girl Talk

Girl Talk is on top of his mashup game... mashing up Radiohead, Sinead O'Connor, the Police and the like (I can't list the rappers because I can't keep 'em separate these days). The new album, Feed the Animals, has leaked onto the interwebs, and you can stream it legally on Myspace. Read the Pitchfork interview for details.
Le Sigh
So, I didn't get the internship I interviewed for last week (again). I always get my hopes up because it always seems so... close, like it's in my hands but then it slips away. This quote made me feel better temporarily, George Carlin on too many colored ribbons: "Red for AIDS, pink for breast cancer. I've got a brown one. It stands for eat shit motherfucker!"
RIP, George Carlin
