This chart, found over at Geeks are Sexy, sure brings back some fond memories… Who knows how many great songs I’ve missed out on over the years because the radio DJ never mentioned the artist, or the song name? And when you ask your friends (“It goes something like duh-nuh-nuuuuuhhhh, da-duh!”) they have no idea […]
Noté Headphone Packaging
I love the clever and relevant package design for these headphones! Designed by Corrine Pant, via Packaging of the World. You may also like: Suck My Brick Secret Invasion Ads, Remixed If Star Wars Was Set in an 80’s High School If Jesus Had Been Korean

Violinist Accompanies Mario in Real Time
Despite being slightly out of tune, this video featuring violinist Teppei Okada is nothing short of amazing. I only wish I can hire him to play sound effects whenever I play my video games.

Rock Band 3 Keyboard Revealed!
J and I love the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. My preferred instrument is the drums, while J likes to rock it out on the guitar — on expert mode, no less. We always joke about how years down the road, J will turn into Randy Marsh (my favorite South Park character), and so […]
Who Knew Batman Could Sing and Dance?
Before suffering laryngitis in the latest Batman franchise… Before enthralling viewers over business cards, designer suits and eighties glamour — hence capturing the title of America’s favorite serial killer in a pre-Dexter era… Before being rejected by one woman (Why, Jo? Whyyyy?????), only to move on to her younger sister… Christian Bale starred in a little-known Disney […]
Street Pianos Headed to NYC!
One of the (many) things I love about NYC is the abundance of street and subway performers. May it be a classically-trained prodigy giving an impromptu concert, a struggling musician performing for dollars (often with the wish that a record executive will “discover” them), or an out-of-luck bum drumming some beats on some upside-down plastic […]
Where Were You When…
Yesterday I read that the Nevermind baby is now grown up and working for the artist who designed the Obama Hope posters. The Nevermind-wha? This CD cover may help jog your memory: It’s hard to believe that this much time has passed since the release of Nirvana’s ground-breaking album. I once read that our generation’s […]
Star Wars: In Concert
Yesterday J and I attended Star Wars: In Concert at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, NJ. It was…SPECTACULAR. I loved it. We recorded a video of the opening number. I loved how they included the THX and 20th Century Fox music at the beginning, just like at the movies! Here is J’s Flickr set […]
In Two Hours, I’ll Be Waiting in Line…
No, not for Twilight (err, New Moon? Pale Moon?). I hate Twilight. I thought the book was so poorly written that I found the movie — which I downloaded to watch one night while battling insomnia, then trashed immediately after viewing — to be better because at least all the pages full of “staring longingly […]
