This made me laugh out loud for several minutes.

Very light blogging this month, since I’ll be in rural Quebec at the Domaine Forget festival. I have no wireless where I live and even now, I am being attacked by weird Canadian mosquitos as I poach the wireless from the dorms. I’ll be back and blogtastic in July.

This is pretty late notice, but if you are looking for something to do tonight at, oh around 2 in the morning, come to the annual Bang on a Can Marathon at the World Finance Center, where Alarm Will Sound will be playing my arrangement of Revolution 9 by The Beatles. The Marathon is always an awesome time, go check it out!

Here is the main schedule.

I could channel my considerable angst and excitement for tonights season finale of Lost into some ornate display of my fanaticism, such as a live-blog of the two hour episode. I could get all Doc Jensen on your asses and lay out all of my theories and predictions for you to peruse prior to your own Lost ritual.

But instead I’ll just say this:

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG LOST FINALE!!!! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG LOST FINALE!!!!!!!!! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG LOST FINALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of COURSE it is!

This is my favorite Mogwai song, and I have yet to see the video until today! What do you think? Kinda beautiful, yes? Kinda disturbing, yes?

Scheherazade’s Dance – Andrew Belling (from Fairy Tales OST)

The Bondage Suite # 2 – Alessandro Alessandroni and Nora Orlandi (from Music For Strange Situations)

Brain Button – Gleaming Spires (The Devil in Miss Jones 3: A New Beginning OST)

These were found at two of my favorite soundtrack blogs: Sleazy Listening and the mind-blowing Vinnie Rattole’s Records. Sleazy Listening is a virtual education in 60s-70s Italian exploitation cinema (and much more). You could spend an entire day on Vinnie Rattole’s site. It’s got more corny 80s soundtracks than you could ever ask for, plus a ridiculous amount of different styles and genres, as well as non-soundtrack albums.

Ooh! If you are a Google Reader user, as your good friend Mafoo is, click the title of one of your items. Nice, huh! Gone are the days of forgoing comments because of the massive amount of time and energy it would take to visit the external link.

“My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.” – Hillary Clinton

Really???
