A Voicemail for Ed Butkin

What I was starting to say was:

  • your voicemail is hysterical. someone should compose a star voicemail song for me too…
  • my guess, is that you’re sitting in a cheese cellar playing Castle Age with Sarah on fb, or writing in depth book reviews on something intellectual and obscure
  • and a total aside, I just finished reading “Widdershins” by Charles de Lint, and was told to reccomend it to you. In short, its about Indians and Celtic faeries, but don’t judge. Review to follow.

Do you have any idea what you're doing??

“YES. I am about to destroy the most feared alien in the world with four extraterrestrial worms and a mailman.”

My sis and I watched Men In Black 2 last night, and it was awesome.

Stereotyping People by Their Favorite Authors

I just wanted to highlight my favorites from this list, from @libraryland

Nicole Krauss: Girls who intern at Nylon but end up moving back to the Midwest for their real job.

J.D. Salinger: Kids who don’t fit in (duh).

Stephanie Meyer: People who type like this: OMG. Mah fAvvv <3 <3.

Harper Lee: People who have read only one book in their life and it was To Kill A Mockingbird (and it was their assigned reading in the ninth grade).

Nick Hornby: Guys who wear skinny jeans and the girls that love them.

J.K. Rowling: Smart geeks.

Lauren Weisberger: Girls who can’t read. Or think.

Jonathan Safran Foer: 30somethings who were cool when they were 20something.

Chuck Palahniuk: Boys who can’t read.

Leo Tolstoy: Guys I want to date.

Ayn Rand: Workaholics seeking validation.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: People who drink scotch.

Charles Dickens: Ninth graders who think they’re going to be authors someday but end up in marketing.

Daily Discovery

I wish I could’ve snapped a picture of my sister sitting at the kitchen island holding a pineapple upside down and wondering out loud, “How do pineapples grow? Like this? It looks unusual.”

(We wound up googling it on google.kr, and discovered that pineapples grow out of sweet bushes, bottoms first. go figure. mind blown)

“Every man ought to be inquisitive through every hour of his great adventure down to the day when he shall no longer cast a shadow in the sun. For if he dies without a question in his heart, what excuse is there for his continuance?” —Frank Moore Colby

“Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is not safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.” —Helen Keller

Fake Karl on Christopher Kane:

Christopher Kane is remarkable in that he has graduated from Central St. Martins and managed to produce a semi-decent collection, once or twice. Of course- this is in between creating lazy collections where he places photos of mushroom clouds onto simple dresses and calls it “design”. Bravo, Mr. Kane- this is why you’re not in couture.

Be careful, then, how you live --

gotjesus:

not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be foolish , but understand what the Lords will is.  Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery.  Instead be filled with the Spirit.  Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs.  Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God and the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

[Ephesians 5:15-21]
