Yeah, I have Popular from Wicked stuck in my head.
Hokay, streaming video linkage: Last night I found the Pacman storms the university video Alan told us about on youtube...pacman. (about a minute long, and hilarious) I also rather enjoy the featured video, Chad Vader. (a nice long 4 minute short film, very well done.) Dude, look at all the anime music videos.... so much to watch.
I am really enjoying the second Piratica novel by Tanith Lee. It's just as OTT and silly as the first one, but it has some real emotional depth in it, with the lead character totally unable to face her feelings and admit that to make a relationship work you have to make some compromises. It's also hilarious, with this whole joke the author keeps riffing on about how boats get misnamed when the person doing the naming ceremony gets distracted: things like "Is That A Wasp" or "Ow Blast" when someone stubbed their toe or the famous one where the person doing the naming suddenly saw their lost true love in the crowd. The ship is called "Is That You Edgar Aah"
The film festival is coming up fast, excitement builds...first film is on Friday: Dave Chapelle's Block Party. Then four on Saturday, woo!
PoF: legwarmers
