Monday Mix-Up #3

Well how about that? You came back for more. As a token of my appreciation, I present to you, this.

Song: Creep (Radiohead, Pablo Honey, 1993)
Covering Band: Korn



I know. Some of you may be thinking, Really Norte...Korn? But I used to like 'em a little in high school (mostly because of my step-brother), and I think they do a pretty decent job on this song.

That is all.

Holy Magical Goodness!!!

I've found the Avenging Narwhal playset.

Along with this...

...and this...

and THIS...
That's right. That's a Bacon Scented Bacon Print Tuxedo.

Mcphee.com is a magical novelty store featuring Breakfast Floss, Stress Freud, and Corn Dog Air Freshener.

Go there now and get me my Avenging Narwhal!!!

That is all.

Oh, pretty pretty please?!?

Dear Santa/Anybody reading this,

Please get me this. Not necessarily for Christmas. Shoot, let's make up a holiday just so you have an excuse to get me one, k?


To whoever tracks this down and delivers it to me: I will give you a pan of brownies or other baked good of your choice.

That is all.

Monday Mix-Up #2

Last week, I put myself up to a fairly high standard of awesome. And while I can't necessarily guarantee that standard will be upheld, I'll certainly try.



So this week,I'm doing a long-time, personal favorite.

Song: Korobeiniki (Tetris Theme)
Covering Band: Ozma




Now, the interesting thing about this one is that the Tetris song itself is a cover. Originally, it was an old Russian folk song about a farmer going to market.

The More You Know...

That is all.

This is a test.

This is only a test.

Had this been an actual blog, you'd have already been smirking at my wit.

We now return to your regularly scheduled interwebs.

That is all.

That is all.

(EDIT: This is my 100th post! WOO!)

Copyright infringment? Perhaps an homage.

Since meeting him about 4.5 years ago, it's become apparent that thePatrick and I operate on a very similar wavelength.

We like most of the same bands.

We complain about the same crap.

And his 'jugga's sound sweet with my 'meedley's. (I promise that's not as dirty as it sounds)

Want one more? Check out his vs. my Veteran's Day blog...

Anyway, the point of this isn't to get all sappy and junk. It's to say that he has started a weekly post cleverly titled Music Video Friday, and that I was planning to as well...right before I saw that he did. Except that I hadn't had my day of the week picked yet. So he wins this round.

But am I going to not do what I had planned? Fark that. I'm still gonna do it. But with a bit of a twist. See, I'm rather giddy and otherwise schoolgirl-esque when it comes to covers. So to counter, I'm announcing the arrival of Monday Mix-up.

So there it is. I've got a good'un for Monday. (Actually, I was so excited for it I already put it up on Facebook...whoops.)

That is all.
