what started as a noble experiment continues as a stream-of-consciousness weblog of tiny victories and lucid distraction.

Not sure if you caught this last night, but if you look closely behind Sen. Obama, you will see three dudes wearing Abercrombie & Fitch t-shirts. Now, I’m not sure if this just happened to be three douchebags wearing A & F t-shirts, or if Abercrombie & Fitch paid to be placed there. If they did, I’m going to have to seriously reconsider my support of Sen. Obama’s campaign.

Derek, the creator of CD Baby has started blogging again (!!!), he’s a living music industry legend of passion and success. Google if you don’t know.

3. What’s really keeping you from where you need to be? (It’s not piracy.)

Sweet. I had the pleasure of interviewing Derek once and he is incredibly innovative and fascinating. This is a must-read.

Sure, Sen. Obama may suck at bowling, but this is a fucking gutterball.

soupsoup: cajunboy: of all the hillary clinton party pics to emerge over the weekend, this is by far my favorite. doesn’t she look like she’d be so much more comfortable with a nice pinot noir in her hand instead? she looks like shes hiding acorns in those cheeks. Looks like some Heaven’s Gate ritual. Was she wearing Nike’s?

Billy Bragg - A New England

A familiar favorite to pass the time while I await his new album, Mr. Love & Justice, out later this month.

Holy balls. I can’t believe that they aired this on mainstream television; it’s way too sensible and accurate for them.

Wolf Blitzer gets three pundits on the air to discuss the latest political spectacle, Clinton and McCain ganging up on Obama for “belittling” the people of Pennsylvania. This was after a speech wherein Obama said that the people of Pennsylvania were bitter at Washington, left behind in economic frustration. It’s an utterly ridiculous situation, and Clinton and McCain get thoroughly served, especially by Cafferty at the end.

edit: Via Marco, Obama responds to the situation expertly.
