So:
I’ll be in Europe all summer. Florence (Firenze) to be exact.
Do you live in a great city in Europe and like showing other folks around?

To learn more about the biochemistry of addiction, scientists in Australia dropped liquefied freebase cocaine on bees’ backs, so it entered the circulatory system and brain. The scientists found that bees react much like humans do: cocaine alters their judgment, stimulates their behavior and makes them exaggeratedly enthusiastic about things that might not otherwise excite them. —The Times

With age comes the knowledge of truly knowing nothing, and the patience to stick around and work hard until the answers show themselves in their own imperfect ways.
But on days without said patience, I’m left just knowing nothing, scratching my head, waiting for the rock to roll back down the hill so I can start over.
I’m waiting.
Stupid rock.
Coachella: A Few Notes
This years attendance seemed lower - just a guess.
Sunday’s lineup was a pretty big drop off from Friday and Saturday.
The crowd was fantastic and the people watching didn’t let me down.
Being surrounded by the right group of people is, as always, key to having fun in those environments.
The weather was tough, but kind, it got much colder at night than I had expected, camping in...

Excellent News!
Landing in Cali in a few hours to attend Coachella for the third time. Last minute trip, without much planning, seems to be falling into place. I’m camping at Coachella for the first time, not sure how its going to work out but I’m excited nonetheless. If you’re going to be around, shoot me and email and say HI!

lafuguedantoine:
Andy Samberg’s musical skits on Saturday Night Live have made him a star. In his Guest DJ set he shares his own favorites, including the dancehall track that gets the party going, a song he jams to in the SNL offices, as well as an emotional track from his parent’s record collection. Samberg just released a CD as part of the comedy troupe the Lonely Island. Incredibad is their...

This is not an article by The Onion, THR writes:
McG, who is in post on the tentpole “Terminator Salvation,” is not that odd a choice to helm a the film adaptation: The director got his start in the music business, first as a songwriter (he produced Sugar Ray’s first album and co-wrote songs on the second) then as a video director.He also has kept one toe in the teen pool by exec...

Peter Tolan and Matthew Perry are sitting down with HBO on the 24th to try to sell “The End of Steve” there. They will explore other options after and if HBO passes.

We miss you terribly.
I watch him play with the dog and hope he’s finding peace.
I hope you’ve found peace too.
Me and Stephen are doing are best, I’m sure you’d be proud.
We love you and we miss you.
WatchWhile it may be too soon to say “SNL is BACK!” watching last night’s episode had me seriously thinking that the show certainly has momentum. When they went with Seth as head writer a few seasons back now I wasn’t surprised. It was logical, hosting Weekend Update, a centerpiece of the show, he’d be in a good spot to stay active on stage while also quarterbacking the...

Watching Jakob Lodwick lipdub is a pretty nostalgic thing (as weird as it sounds). While he’s just recently returned to blogging, on his terms, I remember the days of him posting quicktime videos to blumpy.org that my cousin introduced me to after meeting him visiting college buddies in San Diego. This is a cool video he re-posted recently that’s in a...
