Blur - Parklife

Is it possible that I've missed seeing this video, yet have listened to the song maybe hundreds of times over the years?

Damn, I forgot how old Albarn is. I saw the Gorillaz Plastic Beach show in Austin. He's obviously older, but no less energetic, having become a bit more of a composer than ever, or even a ringleader.

Blur is one of those timeless bands of which I will never tire.

Young Man With A Horn

I have a penchant for early and late black and white films, though my favorites tend to me more along the lines of the Thin Man, Chaplin's films and Fritz Lang oddities than mainstream, trendy classics. That being said, I've somehow missed a few Kirk Douglas films, including this gem with Bacall from '50.

Here's a good old Kirk Douglas film with Lauren Bacall. Too bad it takes a tragedy to wake us up (Bueller, Bueller?). I must be showing my age again...

The Best Beers are Belgian

I gave New Belgium's Abbey a try and was pleasantly surprised. The best beers are often Belgian, and the Abbey is no exception.
