So it is a beautifull day out here in Palo Alto, 75 degrees, crystal clear air, gorgeous sun. The kind of day that makes one want to play hookie and throw around the frisbee, or hit the beach. Man am I glad my office has a window. In honor of this first truly gorgeous day this year I've tossed together a little summery playlist to groove to. There were many more songs I wanted to add, but well, the playlist takes up a lot of real estate. So here's a flash animation from the past come back to haunt us Gonads and Strife when flash animations were crude, choppy and hilarious. If you don't already do so regularly, hit up strongbad emails at homestar runner it's worth it to go back a while and get to know the characters but beware, it can eat up lots of time

Missing Los Angeles Soul Coughing- Screenwriter's blues Poe- Hey Pretty (drive-by remix) Beck- Debra George Clinton- Hollywood Ice Cube- Today Was a Good Day Dre & Snoop- Nuthin but a G thing Missing Persons-Walkin in LA Nelson Riddle- Route 66 theme Mama's & the Papa's- California Dreamin Tom Petty- Free Fallin X-Los Angeles Cake- Sheep go to Heaven ( I kind of like old marquees with stupid band names though)

Last night I was at work well after midnight working on a demo when california dreamin came on my ipod playlist. Thinking about LA made me feel happy because the weather is wonderful, and the people are better looking. So I decided to make today my LA day,I decided to dress well, and slap a thin veneer of charm and courtesy over the knee deep pool of sleep deprivation I am wading through (ya know, kind of like that waiter who doesn't like you, but is trying to decide if you're someone he should waste an 8x10 glossy on, cause you might be important). I think it's worked pretty well so far, but man I don't know how people keep it up. O yeah, also there's a big email virus going around (Netsky) actually a worm because it contains it's own smtp, it sends attachments (usually .pif's) often zipped, often claiming you need some password to access the archive. The from field is spoofed so don't bother contacting the sender. If you think you have it click one of the following links network associates, symantec (my preference);

Martial arts action.

Fightin Playlist Immortals-Techno Syndrome (Mortal Kombat) Crystal Method- Busy Child Rage against the Machine- Wake Up New Order- Confusion (blade soundtrack) Prodigy/Tom Morello-One Man Army Download-Omniman KMFDM-Craze Fatboy Slim-Weapon of choice (awesome fight scene, Christopher Walken vs. dance) Carl Douglas-Kung Fu fighting

In honor of movie martial arts, today's big link is Swoj.com - Xiao Xiao Home to the xiao xiao fighting stickman series. These are some bad ass animations which I highly recommend. ( note the date of the 2nd matrix one. Coincidence? I think not.)    I thought I'd give also Joe Eigo a plug, this guy is ridiculously good. Check out his videos

Recent comedy find from my aunt: The Singhsons, behold as even america's favorite TV family is outsourced/offshored/taken away and done cheaper by brown people.

Popish playlist Bare Naked Ladies- One Week Len- Steal my SUnshine Blind Melon- No rain Blur- Song 2 New Radicals- You get what you give Imperial Teen- Yoo Hoo Republica- Ready to go Blues Traveler- But Anyway Dave Matthews Band- What would you say Elvis Costello -Pump it Up U2- Elevation Smash Mouth- Walking on the Sun Duran Duran- Hungry Like The Wolf Paul Simon- Call Me Al Wang Chung- Everybody Have Fun Spin Doctors- Two Princes

My playlist today was inspired by two things, 1.) I woke up feeling great, and 2.) pop music is intruding on my life, I cannot escape the american idol pop sensation...William Hung. Yes I am talking about Civ E superstar William "She Bangs" Hung. A charismatic singer with no professional training and as many have seen in his video excerpts, "no regrets". Okay so he's terrible, but you've got to give him credit for being super ballsy and for being/playing ignorant to the fact that the entire nation is mocking him. This guy is huge, just see how he fares on a google search. For a while he was the second highest rated story on MSN, hell, people in Idaho know who he is. William Hung, I salute you.

Interesting take on gi-joe public service announcements here : ala what's up tigerlily. I think these were only funny because I remember the originals so well.

Middle School/Junior High Nirvana- Smells LikeTeen Spirit Pearl Jam- Daughter STP-Plush Cracker- Low The Smashing Pumpkins- Cherub Rock The Smiths- Girlfriend in a Coma Alice in Chains- No excuses Soundgarden-Black Hole Sun Bush- Everything Zen Sponge-Plowed White Zombie-More Human than Human Meat Puppets- Backwater

So I was feeling a real 92-95 kinda vibe today for some reason, so I thought I'd take the ipod off random and put together a little playlist of appropriate songs. These are the last few that came up, If only I had long hair and a flannel, the vibe would be complete. That and 3.75'll get me some of seattle's best coffee to drown my angst in.
