Keep Calm and Wait for Pictures of Bing

"Family Life!"
Mamma Kate and Baby Bing ^_^


This picture is from Matt's Twitter feed. Here's the direct link: http://yfrog.com/klglluej
Check out his yfrog profile for more photos :D

EPIC FACEPALM
actually, it's more epic than just a palm but I don't condone self-flagellation. 


For the better part of the summer I was under the impression that blogger had changed the formatting abilities for posting. I could no longer directly add YouTube videos (but I still figured out how to add them myself, WINNING), create hyperlinks, choose fonts, center paragraphs, ect... and then today (actually, as I was trying to center the picture of baby Bing) I got fed up.

And at the same time common sense dropped a coconut on my head.
The exchange went something like:



Me: RAAWWRRRWRWRWRWRWRW!!!! Why can not I center photo???

Common sense: Exhibit A = "edit html" tab on post...
Me: aaarrrrrrrrrrgghghhhhhhhh! 
Common sense: *clears throat* Umm, EXCUSE ME. Exhibit B = "compose" tab 
Me: !!! Huh? ... 
OHFORTHELOVEOF#%$@$#

Well, that's how my retrospective is saying it happened anyways.
 YAY! I can post normally again!

Here's a nice picture of Dom just for the heck of it:

Good tunes, good foods and good weather = happy iKaria B)

Here's what I've been listening to this weekend:
Beastie Boys

During production:"how many celebs can we fit into one music video?"

A Perfect Circle

"Your halo slipping down to choke you now"
It took me too long to find this song again and now I can't stop listening to it.

Metric

I've always wanted to do something with this song.
I really love the lyrics:

Did they tell you
You should grow up
When you wanted
To dream

Did they warn you
Better shape up
If you want to
succeed

I don't know about you
Who are they talking to
They're not talking to me

I'm higher than high
Lower than deep
I'm doing it wrong
Singing along

... and so on

Holcombe Waller

iTunes download of the week - go get it!

Grizzly Bear

While I do not condone the literary integrity of the Twilight novels, I will stand behind their soundtracks. They've got pwopa taste in MUSEic!

Medeski, Martin & Wood

This trio of awesomeness really deserve their own post... coming soon!

Arcade Fire

I can honestly say this was not what I was expecting for the music video, but it made me think.

What do YOU think?

My heart keeps beating like a hammer,

Just in case you were wondering, the title of this post came from this song:

ALBUM VI

(HAWT)
*This picture is the (epic) result of random pause-button-pressing.

WHOA NELLY! I was thisclose to posting on facebook when my little blogging conscience bit my finger and said:
"HEY YOU." รต_o

*MUSE UPDATE ALERT*
(okayyy it's old news but new to this page!)

I got all ambitious on iTunes last night and downloaded all the Muse podcasts (for FREEEEE!) and found this little gem which, as a self proclaimed Muse fan, I really should have been on top of when it first came out:


YAY!

Certainly sounds more promising (and MUSE-y) than those lullaby rumours.

Don't get me started on Bingham... YO MATT. IMMA LETCHU FINISH BUT BINGHAM IS ONE OF THE CRAZIEST BABY NAMES OF ALL TIME!
Bingham 'Bing' Hawn Bellamy *sigh*
I hope he doesn't get beat up in school.

But back to the point of this post - I was thinking, "Hmm, Justice? Sounds familiar" Well. It was:


I like the music video...mostly.

I love YouTube comments:

Just imagine what Matt's sunglasses would look like if he were performing a song like this...

Toodles!
