Julia Holter’s new album Ekstasis is getting heavy airplay in our household.  I can’t even begin to tell you how into this I am.  The whole album is genius.

Hi folks,

I just finished my new album.  It’s called Kal Lor.  You can listen to it and download it for free at Bandcamp.  Neat!

Those of you whom are close to me know that I had a much, much more exciting and significant development in my life this last week… for now I’m keeping daughter-related information on FB and keeping the music stuff here.  Let’s just say I’ve truly never been happier.

Portland Restaurant Haikus

This is my new blog idea.  How long will it last?  It’s a mystery.  For now, I present Portland Restaurant Haikus.

Baseball cards from my youth are hilarious

I found some of my old baseball cards, and as it turns out, they’re absurdly funny.  Look at these freaks! The best part is that someone decided that each of these was the best photo of this player that particular year.  I haven’t looked at any modern baseball cards, but I have to imagine they aren’t still this ridiculous.

Pretty excited to have discovered this today.

In advance of the Oscars, let’s make this clear.

My grandmother made this for my 8th birthday in 1990.  It’s been one of my prized possessions ever since.

I got inspired by the Contra sweater and decided to turn some photos into 8-bit Nintendo art.  Here’s an article on how to do it yourself.  It’s fun!

Next level shit.

“Faster” by George Harrison (1979).  This is one of my favorites from George’s solo records.
