“Chocolate Rain (Barack Obama remix)”

Anyone see that photo of Barack Obama on the cover of the NY Times today? All I can find online is a too-small scan:

Look at that pose, that determination, that popped collar! People ask if America’s ready for its first black president. I ask: are we ready for our first hot one?

Pulling faces

Is this gif more or less mesmerizing than the Beyonce video?

I watched the debate on rerun tonight, so I feel less involved than if I had watched it the same way as the other two, as well as the VP debate. Instead of paying attention as much as I should have, I couldn’t stop watching McCain’s weird faces. The Face wasn’t always paired with a sarcastic comment, sometimes it just appeared on its own, as if it were on someone holding in a sneeze, or someone trying to blink something out of their eye.

  •  I talked to Ryan Leslie for Paper Magazine. I met him at a studio while he was working on tracks for Jennifer Lopez. His shoes were nice. He insists on dressing up to record in a studio, which I think is really funny.

  • Talked to Black Lips for Monday's Progress Report on Steregum. I mentioned their studio walls covered in inspirational quotes, but didn't mention that they also put up lots of girlie pictures (girlie is probably not the right word, since that makes you think of tasteful 1940s nude pinups. Pretty sure Black Lips are more the Barely Legal / High Society type).

  • New Progress Report on Giant Drag. The Giant Drag story got picked up by the NME. Writes Annie: "It's funny how all of a sudden people i haven't talked to in awhile are
    calling or texting me about shows or whatever after the article." She's a great lady.

  • I wrote a Band On The Street on Welcome Wagon for the Village Voice. They are the nicest band in the world, probably because they didn't start out as a band, but as a married couple. I'm working on a review of another couple band. I am sorta grossed out about how cute every couple band is.
