It’s well into 2012, and I have been too lazy on this, but I’m finally ready to post my best of 2011 mix. Hoo-ray? Hoo-cares? Who knows? but it’s something I’ve been doing every year for the past several and I enjoy it. I hope you enjoy it too, and what the hell, free music,…
I’m not a huge fan of Wilco. I mean, I don’t hate them, and I really like a lot of what they do. I’m on record though as saying that I’d trade all the Son Volt and Wilco albums in the world for more Uncle Tupelo. And nothing has really changed that. The other day…

My favorite black metal band who covers 80s pop hits, Necrocomiccon (of whom I’ve previously written) apparently snuck a new release out earlier this month without me noticing. They had released a 3-song EP called “Welcome to Hello” last month but apparently these guys are workaholics and dropped Mjölnir for Nothing while I was still recovering…
The internet has been a little weird this week (subjectively speaking, as some of these things may be older internet phenomena of which I have only recently become aware). I guess the internet is a little weird every week but today it seems to me like it might have been a little weirder than normal.…
Many of you may wish to ignore the existence of this video. But it is far too powerful, and demands a reaction. Fear the captain, for he is an angry god, or weird uncanny valley Mufasa-style talking head in the sky dispensing gibberish and cavorting with psychedelic constellations.
On my birthday yesterday, the internet brought forth its bounty. And that bounty was good. I posted about the behind-the-scenes look at Shatner recording Iron Man yesterday, and I couldn’t possibly have a new favorite thing in the whole of that day, as it was spoken for. But today, I will show you the awesomeness…
You know, after I posted earlier this year about the new William Shatner album and how it was going to be the greatest thing ever, I haven’t heard anything else about it. I’d started to wonder, hey, what the hell, is this thing going to happen or not? Well happy birthday to me, and thank you…
Saturday the 24th, as I posted a while back, was the date for HOPS! Oktoberfest. Earlier in the week, the weather reports all predicted a nice sunny day, but as the week wore on, rain started creeping into the forecast. Friday evening, as I left work, it wasn’t looking too good. And sure enough, the…
In case you didn’t know, I have a birthday coming up next week. “What do you get the guy who has, well, a lot of stuff, but also would like a lot more stuff?” you may be asking yourself. And you may be answering yourself, well, Jim’s TV just stopped working recently; maybe he needs…
