Must be pretty fantastic, as an actor, to see yourself in all of these different types of characters.

Falcon Oxygen-Mask Top-Hat

Not sure how I ended up watching Old Spice videos again tonight on youtube, but when I came across this particular gem, I just couldn't help it. I simply had to see for myself the level of awesomeness this particular combination would result in. I think the final rendering speaks for itself.

season 4 in three weeks

Mad Men seemed to be dragging horribly midway through season 3, but the end of the season has me primed for the upcoming summer show. Watching "The Best of Everything" a couple nights ago just didn't quite do it (although a fun movie all the same!)

the last weekend bender

Lastweekendbender

Inspired by office conversations, and a play on words by co-worker Adam Parrish, I couldn't resist this slight modification to the soon-to-be-panned summer release.

(for those too young or without desire to remember sub-par 80s/90s movies, look up "Weekend at Bernies")

a wonderful Sören Kierkegaard quote

Just started reading Hunter Thompson's "Hell's Angels", which is a recent find from friends' Su and Ero's stoop sale.  Its proving to be quite an engaging read, and strangely simultaneously poignant today while also being rather locked in its time (of the mid 60's).

This quote leads off chapter two, and seems almost prophetic in nature in today's media-soaked climate. To think, this was written in the late 19th century!

"The daily press is the evil principle of the modern world, and time will only serve to disclose this fact with greater and greater clearness. The capacity of the newspaper for degeneration is sophistically without limit, since it can always sinnk lower and lower in its choice of readers. At last it will stir up all those dregs of humanity which no state or government can control."

- Sören Kierkegaard, The Last Years: Journals 1853-55
