“You know I love Karl Rove… Sometimes when I can’t find him on TV, I’ll just put on a pair of wire-rim glasses on a loaf of ham, and I’ll pretend we’re friends. Hey Karl, you feelin’ all right? Your eyes look a little glazed.”
- STEPHEN COLBERT, The Colbert Report
Speaking of eyes, Sir Colbert can do no wrong in mine.

Dad: Gem!

Mom: Not what I meant!
Dirty Harry - Alternate poster for this Clint Eastwood hard-ass cop drama. I like the combination of the colors with the bullet hole. It makes for one bad-ass image.
I stopped believing, you start to move
She was like wine turned to water
then turned back to wine
I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed
And you can pour us out and we won’t mind
I was dead, then alive
She was like wine turned to water
and turned back to wine
You can pour us out, we won’t mind
A scratch around the mouth of the glass
My life is no longer mine
Our lives are not our own
Even the wind lays still
All I felt was fire and cold
And movement, movement
If they ask you for a sign of the Father
Tell them it’s movement, movement and repose

Thanks to the beautiful invention that is Twitter (yes, I am an unashamed Twitterholic) I have just recently discovered Sleezer, and all-Weezer cover band featuring members of mewithoutYou. As almost anyone should know, I absolutely adore mewithoutYou in every way possible, so to hear three of the boys covering another band that I love is a real Godsend. They do it brilliantly as well. Above is a video of them covering the hit song “Say It Ain’t So” from their debut live show at a house party in Philadelphia. Check it out, as well as the nine other songs that their set comprised of. Good stuff!
Words fail me.
Icebergs Series by Vancouver photographer David Burdeny.During 2007 and into the spring of 2008, I made several long journeys to the upper and lower extremes of our planet to photograph the shorelines, monolithic ice forms and landscapes of Greenland, Iceland and Antarctica. Most of these places are arduous to reach, beyond the borders of domestic transportation routes, accessible only by small aircraft or boat. All are endangered to some extent – threatened by tourism, climate change, industry and the hunt for oil.
The photo pictured at top, Iceberg 01, Greenland, 2007, helped win Burdeny the title of IPA Nature Photographer of the Year, 2008. Scroll to the second half of the Young Gallery page to see his equally surreal Shorelines Series, made along the shorelines of Japan, Northern France, and the Pacific Northwest.
