The Amazing Pudding

AND WHO SHOULD GET TO EAT IT!!! So, I tried to post comments to a friend's Blog and I accidentally started my own - which is probably good because I am writing a screenplay about a guy who blogs... so I guess I should have one.

So what will THE AMAZING PUDDING be? Probably a rant about music and movies that don't suck, and about what is going on in the world that does.

OK, Not that I'm not feeling uninspired....

But I have to give shout outs and lead you to two links that came from other friends... things that have given my hours of hilarity over the last few weeks.

Web site number one is the official page of chicago power pop band OK GO. OK Go released one of the best albums of 2002, featuring the ridiculously catchy get over it. Well, after two years on the road and 6 months writing like 60 songs, they are back. Their new album, Oh No, was produced by same man at the desk of Franz Ferdinand and will be released August 30. I will be seeing them at Stubbs on August 24th. Anyway, the reason you've got to go to this website is to watch the choreographed dance routine the band has developed to go with its new song, A Million Ways. They apparently debuted the dance at the Lollapalooza weekend in Chicago. Thanks to Scott for the lead.

Number two is this crazy free site which from what I gather is yet another on-line dating service, OK Cupid. No, I'm not on the prowl - I have the best wifey-wife ever - but I think they've allowed the CODE they use to match people, to be changed by members to create tests for any number of things, like the WOULD YOU HAVE BEEN A NAZI TEST which tests variables such as anti-tolerance and ultra-patiotism. Erin and I spent like 3 hours last night just taking silly tests and seeing how we rank against the rest of the world (or at least the 100,000 members). You can also test to see which MYTHOLOGICAL GOD your personality is closest to, whether you would survive a ZOMBIE INVASION and WHAT DIRECTOR SHOULD MAKE A FILM OF YOUR LIFE. Craziness. Thanks to Alison for this lead.

You what's funny... they both start with OK. I didn't even realize that when I sat down to blog...

Going to see Happy Endings tonight ... my movie list is getting backed up...

    Just listened to their stuff - very catchy ... I like., especially that "LOVE EXPLOSION" song. Very post punk glam.
