Oh swish!

Now, that’s better…

Cause I couldn’t resist.

I find it interesting that I’ve now just inserted myself into the depths of the topics brought up in the flikr conversation. I just like playing with PhotoShop, does that count for anything?

I have two ears and a heart, don’t I?

So, Ferrrosha and I were talking yesterday about unironically loving Phil Collins. My favorite Phil Collins song and video is “Easy Lover”. It’s so ’80s it kills me. Here it is, courtesy of youtube:

My favorite part is the part where the dorky white guy (Phil Collins) is trying to learn dance moves from his New Black Friend (Philip Bailey).

Part of the 4.8%

There are several joys to being unemployed (which I’m trying to embrace). For instance, today I had the opportunity to watch all the episodes of Project Runway Season 4 that I hadn’t seen yet. Thank god for Bravo’s marathons. Hence, I am much more appreciative of the hot tranny mess that the women of this page will lovingly delve into. Also, now I don’t have to wait for them to be available for viewing on Netflix.

While unemployed you also get try to coax the dog you are watching into the pool in the backyard. This means I got to use all sorts of toys, trickery and dogese. I failed miserably. Luckily, looks like I won’t have a job for at least the next two weeks, so we’ve got time. No worries.

But most importantly, being jobless lets you find amazing things like the almost-was opera Soccersongs. This was an opera that was to debut for the 2006 World Cup. It was commissioned by the German government as a collaboration between director Robert Wilson, music producer Hal Wilner, and singer-songwriter Herbert Groenemeyer. It was going to have inflatable items and robots, but more importantly, the opening scene was going to have dinosaurs and soccer. Seriously, amazing. Someone managed to combine pretty much my favorite things: dinosaurs, soccer and musicals. Oh Germany, how I love you so. I think this idea needs to be resurrected. Maybe we can get Alanis on board. Ferrrosh, can you ask her?
