Total "Nerding Out!" weekend, bolstering my geek credentials.
I curled up on the couch on Saturday with a Charlie Kaufman movie.
I spent the weekend getting excited to hear Ira Glass of "This American Life" at a speaking engagement in Woods Hole (though he got hung up in that mid-West snow, and had to postpone).
Delved deeply into one of the most interesting interviews I've read in a long time, with one of the most thoughtful interviewees I've read, the "I'm A PC" guy, John Hodgeman, who eloquently illustrated that sports metaphors are nearly impossible to avoid, and that sometimes being a Democrat is like getting punched in the face, repeatedly.
Oh, and I'll wait to post a video tomorrow, but I discovered "Chap-Hop" (thanks Hugh!).
But I hit total geek Nirvana with this video.
Wait until you hear the sneaky, subliminal way Ben Folds managed to convey that the characters in the song are married. Brilliant!
