Dear Morgan,

I’m sorry.  Firstly, for posting a YouTube video a couple years back entitled “Morgan Webb Actually Being Cute” with a couple hits of criticism about you in the description, let alone obviously in the title of the video.  Then there was that time at E3, I think in 2002, when I blew you off.  I saw you standing there in an oddly vacant area of the show floor, alone, while the camera man was trying to fix some problem.  You were looking around, bored, lonely, like you wanted to talk to somebody.  I stopped for a moment to check out the scenario and make sure it was you.  I didn’t smile, and my demeanor wasn’t friendly when we looked at each other.  I could’ve been cool, we could’ve had a chat, but I just decided to scoff and leave.

I think a lot of the problem was that I thought you were cool back on The Screen Savers, but then your show X-Play… I thought it was so bad, and so annoying, and I associated you with that.  Recently, however, I found out that you went ahead and did your own thing, Webbalert, which was actually pretty cool.  And the level of sympathy I felt with you in your interview about creating and editing computer video, how you were really working hard on this and describing all the trials and tribulations…  it just made me think back to the E3 incident and the YouTube video and made my heart sink.

I was much younger back then and had a worst attitude, unfortunately.  I regret us not meeting.  I’d like to say I’m sorry, and that I was wrong about you.  You are indeed cute, among many other positives.

Sincerely,

Joz

I forgot to highlight one of my favorite pictures in the post below, psych, I didn’t, I actually wanted it to have its own entry.  I call this one American Girl in America:

This girl is so awesome.  I’ve run across her site a few times when trying to figure out/remember certain things for the 100th time such as ”affect” vs “effect” and ”its” vs. “it’s”.  It’s interesting that Grammar Girl is actually blonde, even though her cartoon version is a brunette.  Must be that opposite-hair color loving gene.  I always love how she starts her stuff with “Grammar Girl here.”  Grammar Girl, you rock.

I really like when Emily lays on top of me.  Recently, I asked my mom to take a picture of this.  Just after the picture was taken, as she continued to lay on top of me, Emily told me that I didn’t know about “the twist”.  When I looked at the picture I loved it and laughed.

I find most of Beyoncé’s music to be obnoxious, primarily in beat and the tone in which she sings and enunciates her lyrics. On top of that, I don’t like her lyrics often times, such as in her most recent single in which the chorus goes “If you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it (repeat x20)”.  What is she talking about, what is “it”?  I should put a ring on anything I like?  I should get a big ring to put around my MacBook?  She’s not talking about women right?  If so, why would she demean them to an “it”?  Actually, I just found an interesting blog post about Beyoncé and socially conservative ideology.  Anyway, I digress.

Last night at the Neighborhood Ball, Beyoncé sang in honor of the first couple’s first dance.  It was not the Beyoncé that I am often annoyed by.  It was what could have been a different woman in the same body.  I would love if she had songs like this on the radio.  Two other things I realized:

#1: Wow she is a really amazing singer!

#2: Damn she is beautiful!

I really like this first dance not just because of the music and the love that is apparent between Barack and Michelle, but the title and headline lyric of the song, “at last”, can mean more than one thing here, and the whole thing just exudes a big sigh of comfort from me.

The crush grows even stronger…

Thanks EmilyStrange for finding this.

Update [1/15/09]: Funny Strange response.

I’ve noticed that in the OC there are a lot of Christian women with large fake breasts. How do I know they’re fake? Just the size-to-body ratio and the way they sit/stick out. Plus the OC is known for fake tits. How do I know they’re Christian? Cause I’m starin’ at these tits and I notice a cross necklace resting on them, or I see her getting out of an SUV with a cross or Jesus sticker or etc on it.

What’s strange about it to me, and granted I don’t know that much about Christianity/religion, is that you’d think this is hypocritical, or going against the ideas of the religion. If you believe in the biblical god and that he created everything and whatnot, then wouldn’t you be rejecting the way he made you? I’m sure they have some sort of interesting (ridiculous) reasoning for it.

Not that I have anything against fake tits per se, but something seems off about “Honey, don’t forget to bring the flowers with us to church on Sunday, and then I have my appointment to get my big titties on Monday.”

from the G.A.  Half street half pop singaaaaa!

by the way.. I agree with BBC Music’s review of Out of Control:

Pop music at its finest, Girls Aloud have opened up their hearts, and finally won their battle against drippy, re-hashed ballads. Long may they reign.

Amen!

Also I like that BBC licenses their published work under Creative Commons.  That’s dope!
