So, is it wrong of me to like Pink‘s voice, even though I cannot understand a word she’s singing? Opera lovers do this all the time…

the blogger rap
Here’s a little gem from The Assimilated Negro, who apparently gets these urges from time to time. We only give thanks he gets them when there’s a mic handy. Ladies and gentlemen, we present your new theme song.
Rough Draft: Blogging All Over New York
all over new york baby
center of the universe
the blogging here is so crazy right now
that’s why, when I see a girl
i walk right over to her
i’m like yo …
waddup girl, I’m a blogger
assimilated negro looking for fodder
and I’m not your average ipodder
kicking some game
you know my sh*t’s smart, funny,
plus a little insane
(hey)
see TAN is running this town
and if you got some wi-fi
I could show you around
that’s why anywhere online
you’ll be thinking of me
there’s so many blogrolls with people linking to me
And so on, much with the hyperlinkage. That’s the best part, actually. Full lyrics on the site here.
“And what is the use of a blog post,” thought Alice, “without hyperlinks and multimedia?”

Prince is the King
You doubt?
and
To all you nasty H8erz: the man has a penis 35 feet long, the FCC is too in love with him to take issue with his blatant display of self-love right there in the halftime show, he’s had more hit records than you’ve had burritos, he successfully stuck it to the record conglomerates in a brilliantly subversive and artistic way, and he’s had every woman he ever wanted (three of them got pregnant just from his sidelong glances!). Also, he’s been known to do a set or two at piddly little clubs in places like, say, Vancouver, just for shits and giggles without even taking a piece of the five dollar (Canadian) cover.
Let’s go to the transcripts, shall we?
No need for the teams to come back out. The game is over. It was a very entertaining first half, but Prince is just gonna hold it down for the next couple hours. It’s all good.

You scored as Parade Prince. You are the Parade Prince. You know that you are funny and make everyone around you feel better. You’re funny and smart and witty.
Which Prince ERA are you? |

getting medieval on your astronaut!
How I love it when a loyal reader sends along a piece of web strangeness saying, “Saw this freakishness and thought of you.”
I feel speshul.
A certain horse blogger of heretofore normal inclinations has passed along the following sad and bizarre tale.
Remember when you were little, and you were asked what you wanted to grow up to be? Now, as a little girl I knew “cowboy” was off the table, but I saw no reason not to say “jillaroo” or, indeed, “astronaut.” “Firefighter” was for dumb lugs, sorry to my four cousins who became firefighters; I can only suggest they are playing against type.
Yes, didn’t we all want to be astronauts when we grew up? Everyone old enough to have seen the first Moon landing surely shares my one-time dream. But, as age and marks caught up with us, we realized we’d never have the PhD from MIT that seems to be the prerequisite, much less the Olympic medals, the Saudi princedom, or the College Republican presidency that are just the oak leaf clusters on the dingleberries of your application form.
We felt bad.
Ladies and gentlemen, allow us at the ol’ raincoaster blog to make your day. Allow us, in fact, to make up for decades of feelings of inadequacy. Your life may suck. Your job may involve the phrase “would you like fries with that?” Your love life may be as imaginary as your next vacation. Your socks could have holes, your dog could snap at you, and your shirt could well be tucked into your underwear at this very moment.
But you will never be the country-song-in-waiting that is the trainwreck which is this astronaut’s sorry-ass life.
A NASA astronaut faces her first appearance before a judge this morning after police say she attacked her rival for another astronaut’s attention at Orlando International Airport Monday.
Lisa Marie Nowak drove more than 12 hours from Texas to meet the 1 a.m. flight of a younger woman who had also been seeing the astronaut Nowak pined for, according to Orlando police. She is being held on no bond at Orange County Jail and has a court appearance at 9 a.m.
Nowak — who was a mission specialist on a Space Shuttle Discovery flight last summer — was wearing a trench coat and wig and had a knife, BB pistol, and latex gloves in her car, reports show. They also found diapers, which Nowak said she used so she wouldn’t have to stop on the 1,000-mile drive.
