Pete!

If there was barbecue sauce involved, I would probably eat someone. For survival.

About Me

Hot Action

My Interests

Salient Features of Chinese Historical Thinking, The Importance of French Transformist Ideas for the Second Volume of Lyell's Principles of Geology , The Puzzle of Aggregate Studies of Repression and Dissent , The Cost of Racial and Class Exclusion in the Inner City . Also boobies.

Music:

Recently it's been a lot of Hold Steady, Spoon, and Sonic Youth. This Wednesday I will get my Turbonegro fix, and the Hives show is coming up at the end of the month.

Movies:

I guess I don't really watch movies any more.

Television:

Flight of the Conchords. 30 Rock. Flight of the Conchords. 30 Rock. Flight of the Conchords. 30 Rock. Stella.If you've got netflix, rent those shows.

Books:

I read less than I should. Somebody recommend something that can hold my interest. I'm afraid I'm developing adult ADHD.

Heroes:

Stephen Hawking. For the robot voice. And also for all of that sciencey stuff he wrote about in that book-thingy.

My Blog

Facebook makes Myspace look like a totally annoying version of Facebook.

Yeah that's pretty much it. There are not five ads to a page. And some of the applications actually give you something to do when you're on there. I'm on there now, so if anyone else is, friend me.PS....

Kathy Griffin is not funny.

I'm pretty sure ELO is the best band ever.

I've discovered, from listening to them repeatedly on the Drive and Jack FM, that I really like the Electric Light Orchestra, and not in an ironic kind of way.

Disturbing article about that guy from Girls Gone Wild. What a fucking sleazy douchebag.

Hey--So I read this article the other day. It's from the LA Times. It's pretty disturbing. I have never had the pleasure of seeing one of these videos, but now it totally makes me sick every time one ...
