Stuff I'm Not Supposed To Be Celebrating



Although this is a period of mourning for many of my Heeb brethren here's what I'm celebrating:

1) Starting my internship at MKG Productions tomorrow.

2) The new Al Green album- Lay It Down that I downloaded for $8.99 from Amazon.

3) My friend Missy Goldstein relocating to NYC this Friday.

4) Last night's Flash Dance Skate Party at the Dreamland Roller Rink in Coney Island. Click here for pictures which should be up by Monday at the latest (I hope).

5) Finishing the dark and hilarious When You Are Engulfed By Flames by David Sedaris.

remix culture = artistic growth



I've been meaning to blog this for a while Good Copy Bad Copy is a documentary about copy right law and remix culture. This video is a perfect education tool, and contains interviews from both the suite-types and the "offenders" themselves. Great commentary from Danger Mouse, Girl Talk, and the Pirate Bay guys.
