Monday Notes and Blog Dispatches

"I felt a piece missing here/when I ask you what's going on you say, "It's all me my dear." - Nikka Costa, Nothing [buy the album] George nominates She Hate Me for a Razzie. I'm nominating this piss poor review for one as well. Come for the discussion of Missy's car fetish. Stay for the not-so-subtle racist undertones in the comments. USA Today says this "fued" has been suggested without ever saying who it's been suggested by. Now, I love my Justified and think it's a much stronger album over-all than Confessions (although I think Yeah! beats all the Mister JT singles in a grudge match) but in a dance-off, Usher's killing him. But, really, whose suggesting they are fighting? The SF Examiner's 5 reasons why TV rules features 4 of the shows that I'm obsessed with this summer and good reasons why I might be obsessing. Why when I see a headline that reads Dylan, Nelson perform at South Bend ballpark do I really want it to be a story about former Making the Band castmembers? The "shame Jason for not liking 'Pac" olympics continues. Buju Banton, the Coalition of Urban Renewal and Education, and the Florida RNC (shocker!) all get the gas face.
