These Are Strange Times…They All Are Strange Times

  • Rolling Stone is losing the large format. This would really bum me out if I hadn't stopped reading it right after tenth grade and my classic rock phase ended.
  • The Black & Tan Turtle reminds me that I haven't had a Black & Tan in years.
  • Mad Men season 2 is even better than season 1. It's just so freakin' good. Don Draper is now the hero to which we all aspire. I dream of nonchalantly teaching my five-year-old how to make a Tom Collins from the divan.
  • Boy, other than this woman, the Olympians sure are weird. The Chinese women's gymnastics team are either all six years old or really, really weird. And there is no more 10 anymore, just some weird 16. Eff that. When I watch gymnastics (which is the result of some serious puppy dog eyes by my wife) all I can shout is "Kerri Strug did it better…on ONE LEG!" Seriously, why don't they just replay that . Man, the only thing I hate worse than the Summer Olympics is the Winter Olympics.
  • Finally, today's pic is some gorillas, which apparently there are a lot more of than we thought. Huh.
