Random Musings



- "Homecoming" by Kanye West is an awesome song. Say what you will about his love of fish, but the man can make some sweet tunes. This song has been out for a year and a half and its still played at frat parties, bars, jacked up vista cruisers rolling on 20s, and my ipod. "Homecoming" is the vegetable version of the potato.

- Speaking of music, if you get Palladia, an HD only channel, I highly recommend you DVR the MTV Europe Music Awards for three reasons. First Katy Perry is the host. While she is incredibly annoying her rack carries the day. Second, for you Obama lovers out there every other artist either wears an Obama shirt or gives him a shout out. Finally, the production quality of the show is unreal. Every set is imaginative and each performance is truly unique.

- Speaking of Obama, is it resume worthy that I didn't get caught up in the Obama hype? I feel like future employers would like to know that I have vision and don't get caught up in slogans like "Yes We Can."

- Why the hell is Sunday the first day of the week? It doesn't make sense from a work standpoint because Monday is the first day of the work week. It doesn't make sense biblically because on the seventh day God rested. Someone help me out here.

- As mentioned in an earlier Random Musings Windows finally realized that attacking the cost of Apple computers might be a good idea. However, have you ever noticed the girl who is looking for a lap top under $1000 (pictured above)? She is wearing a scarf, black box framed glasses, and she drives a Volkswagen with a flower in a cup holder. This chick is the very definition of an Apple owner.

I think not getting caught up in the Obama hype is resume worthy if, in the interest of full disclosure, you also put down that you were known to shout "Four more years!" at a frenzied pitch every time you watched a Bush speech during the 2004 election.

Gene - At the rate Obama is going people will be yearning for the Bush years.

She totally is a Mac owner. Watch out Suzanne b/c this girl is everything Fig's been looking for (no offense). Also, I think she was one of the characters on the hit show Everwood, but I'll have to check on that one.
