I love Spoon. I do. Within my circle I am known as "The One That Likes Spoon A Lot." But, "The Mystery Zone" is leaving me ill at ease. It lacks elements I've come to fall in love with from Spoon albums. Namely slick production and sharp hooks. Britt might not feel like he needs them, but I do. That said, the song is perfect if it's intended to be a tease. If some of the things I'm hearing on this song are hints to what we'll be hearing on the whole album, I am *very* excited. I love Spoon.

The best Beatles, ahem, THE Beatles, song is 'She Said, She Said." There. I said it.

The only thing my grandparents like from my music collection is The Sea & Cake.

So the takeaway is that our music heroes act like 13 year old little girls on MySpace. I guess I don't really care.

She must have had mad heartburn during her pregnancy. I just had a baby 6 weeks ago who also had a lot of hair (but not as much as junior up there) and my OB was like, "oh. well that explains why you wouldn't shut the hell up about your acid-reflux."

From now on I am going to pronounce *fragrance* like this: frog-ranse!
It will make me sound fancy.

Isn't using the hideous yellow sort of the point? It communicates something about the time and place, etc. Did you want it to be very beautiful looking? Wouldn't that be in stark contrast to the characters and therefore visually confusing?

I will never understand people who've taken a few film classes. It's almost as though they don't understand that movies are sometimes made for people who aren't loyal subscribers to all things Criterion.

And that reminds ME of a game my brother and I played called, Gotcha Last. It was a high contact variation of tag wherein, instead of running from the person who is it, you would pin the other person's arms down while simutaneously traying to hit them (the harder the better) and saying, "gotcha last," and then continuing to hold the person down (this part involved wrestling) so they could not get you back. Ah......good times.
