Snow Patrol's Infinite Intro
I was searching YouTube for concert videos when I came across about two dozen clips of the band Snow Patrol taking the stage at the start of their set. Each video seemed to be from a different show. Each show starts with the same fanfare. Each fanfare leads into the same song. Put together, it looks like this:
I limited this video to the first nine clips. Check the high res file to get the full effect: Snow Patrol's Infinite Intro @ 960x540.

Yes, I've already posted one of these but I still look at them and they still crack up.

No tumblr for me. Yet.
Despite the fact that Andrew, Jamie, Ellie, and Tim have all made the switch to Tumblr, I'm still sitting here running braintag on MT 3.35. Don't get me wrong -- I love Tumblr. The Rocketboom Rocketblog is now on Tumblr. And I've actually had a tumblr feed running since forever. But it's a lazy feed. I don't actively post anything to it except for the occasional retumbl.
Why I won't switch has something to do with an unfounded fear of downtime and nostalgia for the good ol reBlog (even though I haven't posted to unmediated in forever and a day.) Maybe I should look at Gelato or Bazooka instead. Or perhaps I'll just switch to Tumblr anyway just for the hell of it. In the meantime, in lieu of a clever title about "tumbling towards tumblr" or some shit like that, here's a painfully obvious video embed of Culture Club:

No Reproductive Health For You!
As Andrea found back in 2003, CVS keeps condoms, lubricants, and home pregnancy tests behind locked glass. The company claims it's because of theft. The side effect of making sex a taboo leading to unwanted prom night dumpster babies is just incidental.

Tricia took me for my first trip to Yogurt World. This place puts Pinkberry to shame. Too bad it's only in San Diego.

California recently ruled that shopping malls are public forums where citizens should be allowed to exercise their First Amendment rights. The first petition we find? "Allow Beer on the Beaches!" (Mission Valley, San Diego)
