Five Things

This is why you don't have to worry about the Norwegian Navy.

One of the biggest obstacles I face in putting shit on this site, besides laziness, is that I have trouble focusing enough efforts on one topic to make a decent post. What you call lack of attention span I call being a renaissance man.

Usain in the Membrane
Only hacks make puns out of the Jamaican's oh-so-appropriate last name. Oh Bolt struck twice did he? Fuck you. But in all seriousness, this guy is awesome. Killing it. The 200 last night was the first olympic event I was actually excited to see. With all apologies to Michael Phelps, he's the star of these games. Mainly because running is better than swimming. If we were meant to swim we'd be born with gills like Kevin Costner. I guess this means I lifted the boycott.

The Dream Ticket
Yes, Obama-Clinton '08 would be good. Unifying the democratic party, both symbolically and in practice. Plus they offset each others weaknesses. Obama isn't called 'Hopey' for nothing, what with his inspiration speech and seeming inability to really go after McCain's weaknesses. If the primary was any indication, Clinton seems to be a pitbull. Plus her presence on the ticket could help convince bitter racists that a rich rageaholic warmonger probably won't be looking out for their best interests. I mean seriously who else is there? Joe Biden? Are Dems actively trying to lose the election? I hate politics.



Pro Tools
The new album from Wu-Tang Godhead GZA; Genius is spinning as I type this. Some critic compared it to his best previous solo work Liquid Swords and so far it hasn't disappointed. Meanings and insights flow over solid hooks on first listen -- especially 0% Finance and Columbian Ties.


That's five right?
