British Vs American Version?


I was going to have Amazon bum-rush Jay with Morrissey's autobiography for his recent 61st birthday until I found out that the American rendition left out the gay parts. That just didn't seem right. Do you bastards have predominately British or American sensibilities?

British The Office vs American The Office

Revolver WITH "And Your Bird Can Sing" vs Revolver WITHOUT "And Your Bird Can Sing"

The Philosopher's Stone vs The Sorceror's Stone

knickers vs panties

Rifftrax


Any of you tastemakers on this bandwagon? The Mystery Science Theater 3K guys have gone after bigger, more popular targets. Website here. You can sync up mp3's or buy the DVD for films like Star Wars, Titanic, Inception, Casablanca, etc...

Banksy Simpsons Intro }:^)


I've never heard of Banksy, but have seen pictures of his stuff and what I'm guessing are its many imitators. The Simpsons intro is cracking.

Happy Winter Solstice

Celebrate the shortest day of the year with the above performance by a short rock god (keep eyes peeled about 3:30 in). Bonus for hipsters who can name the members of this curiously excellent all-star lineup.

The Graveyard Book



Congratulations to Neil Gaiman, who was awarded the Newberry medal for 2009. Not bad for an old comic book writer.

The Graveyard Book is "a delicious mix of murder, fantasy, humor and human longing" according to the Newberry people, all the things I look for in children's books.
