WEBLOG

As it was first created, a weblog, or "blog," was supposed to be a log of websites a web user had visited which they wanted to either share with friends or just keep a record of the sites for themselves. Today, I have a few of those for my own blog...for myself and for others to check out as well.

First, a new installment has been made in the Yacht Rock series. For those of you unfamiliar with this series, it's a fine little history of "yacht rock" that's sort of like Spinal Tap vs 70s Soft Rock. Be sure to watch it in order (#1 is at the bottom) if you are new to this.

Next, everything can be studied academically, take for instance the web-phenom "2 Girls 1 Cup." While there has been a "study" of the actual video, it is not the most academic. Now, we have a law professor studying people viewing the 2 Girls 1 Cup video. Not sure what else to say but good luck. And, if ou are among the few that have not yet seen the original video...DO NOT worry about it, you probably don't need to.

Also, there will be a Falco movie, due out rather soon. I don't know much German, but a) Grace Jones will be in it, b) It's A FALCO MOVIE!!! and c) It seems to suggest his death may have actually been a suicide. I believe it is only being released (in Feb '08?) initially in his homeland, Austria, but with any luck, there will be subtitled versions on DVD hitting other countries in the very near future. Crossing our fingers, Der Kommissar.

And last, I just found out the "Irish" have something to "fear" this year. St. Patty's Day must be moved due to the catholic calendar. What an odd concept. Beware the Ides of March!
