I need to put my thoughts down somewhere, whether it be online or on paper. I can only imagine what this will look like to someone who isn't me.

Kanye's Blog
There’s only one thing better than reading Kanye West’s blog, and that’s his comments. Check out this post, and the comments below. They range from the faux intellectual to absolutely asinine. My personal favorite? bo0gzz | June 19, 2008 1 SPILL ND ITS A WRAPP FOR UR FLOORS lolololTwo things: (1) how emphatic could he really be about this comment? All caps? Really? (2) why does bo0gzz have “Starry Night” as his avatar image?

Jamba!
I’m currently enjoying Jamba Juice’s Strawberry Surf Rider. I checked out the website to see what my drink contained, and I was pleased to see that I was drinking a “huge wave of fruit fun.” In between the excessive flash animation and the enthusiasm bordering on hyperbole for their smoothies, I found Jamba Juice’s website to be as enjoyable as my smoothie, which is certainly excellent.

Google & the Law.
“We tried to come up with comparison search terms that would embody typical American values,” Mr. Walters said. “What is more American than apple pie?” But according to the search service, he said, “people are at least as interested in group sex and orgies as they are in apple pie.”
Firstly, this is probably one of the best quotes to have ever run in the New York Times. It’s a really interesting article, and it’s a pretty clever use of Google search data. Check it out.

Geriatrics.
I had to work today at 5:30 this morning, which was unfortunate, but it will make the fact that I’m going to sleep and watch LOST for the rest of the day a little more palatable. Anyhow, senior citizens fucking line up outside of the gym before the sun even rises because, apparently, they’ve got nothing better to do. I was watching these two guys who should be on their respective deathbeds banter to each other and they had a pretty funny dialogue. Thus:
A: Bill! How you doing? Still breathing, huh?
B: long pause.. Yes. Yes, I am. He stares at A. It’s a basic necessity.
B couldn’t have crammed more condescension into his quavering old voice if he had tried. Good to see that the Greatest Generation is still getting along.
