Google Logos

On my 19th birthday Google happened to have a special logo up and running in Canada to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving.


Over the years, their celebratory logos have become increasingly more complex and interesting. You may stroll through their history at this website: http://www.google.co.uk/logos/index.html

Via Audio

I was just in Nashville and heard this band, Via Audio play. Then we went out after their show and they were really fantastic human beings too. They're like a funky, soulful, poppy version of The Cardigans. Check it.

Telephone

I love her.



If you seriously haven't seen the Telephone music video, you must be living under a rock. Come into the sunshine my friends. Consider this your wake-up call. (ha)

Luck

I have been enjoying David Sedaris recently and just finished both Naked and Me Talk Pretty One Day. He's hilarious. Case in point, here's an excerpt from Naked.

The day after graduating from college, I found fifty dollars in the foyer of my Chicago apartment building. The single bill had been folded into eighths and was packed with cocaine. It occurred to me then that if I played my cards right, I might never have to find a job. People lost things all the time. They left class rings on the sinks of public bathrooms and droped gem-studded earrings at the doors of the oprea house. My job was to keep my eyes open and find these things. I didn't want to become one of those coots who combed the beaches of Lake Michigan with a metal detector, but if I paid attention and used my head, I might never have to work again.

The following afternoon, hung over from cocaine, I found twelve cents and an unopened tin of breath mints. Figuring in my previous fifty dollars, that amounted to an average of twenty-five dolars and six cents per day which was still a decent wage.

The next morning i discovered two pennies and a comb matted with short curly hairs. The day after that I found a peanut. It was then that I started to worry.

Healthcare
