Lists for April 18, 2006

From Deadwood Edition #112

On Deck

...wherein we listen to what Lawrence's movers and shakers are moving and shaking. to.

  1. Gogol Bordello, "Gypsy Punks Underdog World Strike"
  2. Avett Brothers, "Four Thieves Gone"
  3. New Amsterdams, "Worse For The Wear"
  4. Jenny Lewis, "Rabbit Fur Coat"
  5. Damone, "Out Here All Night"

Tubers

...wherein local TV connoisseurs intimate what keeps them on their couches.

  1. "Smallville" "Superman, as a teenager, turned into what is basically a sci-fi soap opera ... what's not to like? Plus I have a major Lex Luthor crush! "
  2. "No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain" "This guy goes all over the world, eats whatever the natives put in front of him, gets drunk off the local spirits and is generally crass. It's a very real, and occasionally educational show."
  3. "Taboo" "It's on the National Geographic Channel so I can convince myself that I'm learning something. I think its neat to see the more extreme aspects of other cultures."

Bound Up

Currently reading: "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand "It makes me sound all hoity-toity, but I've never read it. It's one of those take-a-philosophy-course books."

One book everyone should read: "East of Eden" by John Steinbeck "It's a little peak into the way humans interact. It's pretty long - definitely not one you'd want to tackle in one sitting."

Thanks, but no thanks. The last time you guys rolled through town, we ended up digging cotton candy out of our navels for two weeks. We're not waxing our backs just to go through THAT again. -homies
