Sometimes the Universe Conspires Against You

And sometimes you just want to crumple the universe into a little ball and shove it where the sun don't shine...

In other words, we are having technical difficulties. I'm talking to you, Time Warner Cable, supposed "purveyors" of the internet. My connection is intermittent at best, while Karly's is non existent. Hopefully K Dawg will be back tomorrow in full force with an ultra fine post for you dudes. If not, it might be because she's in county lockdown for bombing a company whose name rhymes with Mime Corner. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Friday on a Tuesday

The post I have for you today is looks a lot more like a Friday post (short, sweet, pretty) then a Tuesday post (long, labored, totally hilarious) but, you see, I was working on a traditional Tuesday-style post when I came across this Friday-style content and I just could not keep it secret until the end of the week. I don't even think I heard a word of the song in this video I was so enchanted by all the scenes.  If you're at the office, turn off the volume, you don't need it, it's just that rad

Normally the recreation of famous works of art in a music video would get a giant eye roll from me, but I like that these dudes aren't taking themselves too seriously or trying to show off their art history knowledge.  It's just fun.  I like it.

Thursday you'll get a long post.  Promise.

Weekend Getaway

I really wish this weekend were some sort of long weekend.  I know there must be a president or poet laureate with a birthday right around now.  Let's celebrate him for crying out loud! Well, since it's only a 2 day weekend but I really want to get away, I should probably try to make this as efficient as possible.  Maybe my plane could also double as my hotel?  Yes, that should do the trick

This plane used to seat 120 people, now it's been retrofitted with a jacuzzi, 3 flat-screen tvs, a 24 hour hostess (hmmm...), a king sized bed and a Blu-Ray player

I'm pretty sure these are no longer air-borne, but it would be awesome if they were.

I'm sure someone out there has a bath / flying fantasy that this is really doing it for.

And there's that king sized bed I was telling you about.  This is really the only part that seams a little creepy to me.  What happens at night?  Do you seal up that exit door so you're just locked in the air-tight tube?  I don't know about this part.

Although playing make-believe-fighter-pilot does sound pretty awesome.

That's all for today, dudes, you go have yourselves a mighty fine weekend
