Quote of the Day
On my cab ride in this morning, I had the horror of listening to an interview with some completely nuts evangelical who I believe was named Richard Lamb (?? not that I really care if I am accurate on the dude’s name) all about the sanctity of marriage and how evangelicals will never vote for a Demoractic (i.e., pro choice) candidate and blah blah blah.
Despite the horror (I seriously got the gag reflex at one point, his comments were so ridiculous), and again wondering what it is about the SEPARATION of church and state that people such as he refuse to understand…he did provide a moment of humor when he commented on the current battle for the Democratic nomination:
I feel sorry for Senator Clinton. She’s trying to conduct a job interview and Obama’s on a date.
Hilarious and very accurate of how the campaigns are being run / experienced by the public, I’d say.
Song of the Day
“Gravedigger” – Willie Nelson (from Paste sampler #40, off his album “Moment of Truth”)
Dude, he works “Ring Around the Rosie” into it; come on now. His voice is such a perfect combination of melodiousness and gravel. I neverrarely* buy his albums but every once in awhile I come across a tune of his I love. He’s a better lyricist than I’ve heard him given credit for. You should never have to bury your own babies. And have you seen Songwriter? Because I love EVERYTHING about that movie, including him, his acting, his singing, and his humor. But it’s one of those movies that I’m not sure anyone other than me and my Dad ever watched (Dad is a big Alan Rudolph fan).
*I did buy one a few years ago, I think it was this one.

Quote of the Day
Understanding, compassion, kindness and love are the only true revolutionary ideas. When we compromise these, we become what we despise and lose our humanity.
-Bones 3:2
Lyrics of the Day
If you were a wink, I’d be a nod…
If you were the floor, I’d wanna be the rug…
And if you were an ocean, I’d learn to float…
-“All I Want Is You” Barry Louis Pollsar from the Juno Sdtrk.
Great movie, great tunes. It’s a win-win.
If you haven’t seen this yet, or are letting some crap-ass review taint your willingness to go, go read this review. And then go, for pete’s sake. Pete would want you to.
When both me AND my dad are as equally gung-ho about a film (yes, sometimes we disagree), I don’t think there’s anything else you need to know. It’s THAT good.
Words to Live By / Lyrics of the Day
You are not your job,
And you are not the clothes you wear:
You are the words that leave your mouth
So speak up, speak up…
-“Call Me Ishmael” Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly.
Lyric of the Day: Tellin’ it like it is.
I don’t want to be your friend.
I just want to be your lover.
-Radiohead “House of Cards”
Song of the Day.
“The Guy that Says Goodbye to You Is Out of His Mind”
Griffin House
You don’t need to change
A thing about you, Babe
I’m telling you, from where I sit,
You’re one of a kind
Relationships, I don’t know why,
They never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind
Well I’ve been down and I need your help
I’ve been feeling sorry for myself
Don’t hesitate to boost my confidence
Well I’ve been lost and I need direction
I could use a little love protection
What do you say, Honey, come to my defense
I’d stand up for you if it’s what you need
And I can take a punch, I don’t mind the bleed
As long as afterwards you feel bad for me
You give me all of your attention
I’ve got deep desire and it needs quenching
And I think that’s pretty plain for you to see
Well enough about me and more about you
Because that’d be the gentlemanly thing to do
I hope you like your men sweet and polite
I thought I was done with telling you
But I ain’t nearly halfway through
I’ve got a few more things I’d like to say to you tonight
Get Ready
You don’t need to change
A thing about you, Babe
I’m telling you, from where I sit,
You’re one of a kind
Relationships, I don’t know why,
They never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind
You always did kind of drive me crazy
And it pissed me off because I let it faze me
But I never wanted my time with you to end
Now I’m back in town for a day or two
But mostly I came back just to see you
I’m leaving now but I don’t want to go
You don’t need to change
A thing about you, Babe
I’m telling you, from where I sit,
You’re one of a kind
Relationships, I don’t know why,
They never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind.
