Just a couple of funny "The Office" videos I found recently.

Jack from "Lost" comes to Jim's defense at the end of "Beach Games":

Jim must become Dwight to destroy him:

This Friday is off to a good start.

Way before Nirvana

It's not a forgotten song from the 90s but when I heard it on the radio this afternoon (for probably the first time since it came out), I couldn't believe it only came out 4 years ago.

1985 - Bowling for Soup

In school news, my PGP is done! All that's left now is finishing up my unit plan and math portfolio stuff. :-P

I don't watch "American Idol" (in fact, I wish it would go away) but you cannot deny the hilariousness of this clip:

Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downey Jr. on "American Idol"

I can't believe I just posted something "American Idol" related. I think I have to go take another shower now.

Music QotW: Favorite Michael Jackson Song

Share your favorite Michael Jackson song.

Don't particularly care for the original Michael Jackson version of this song but it is technically one of his songs.

I know it's nowhere near Talk Like a Pirate Day but I couldn't resist - and I'm bored.

Things on Tuesday (May 6, 2008)

nobody@vox.com(iRead) — Tue, 06 May 2008 16:35:24 -0700

Loathe:

Losing my voice
Getting a bloody nose
Being disappointed by new episodes of shows that have been gone since December
Not being able to teach since I can't talk

Love:

Accepting a job (at least I really, really hope I signed under "accept")
Changing almost $20 worth of coins into an Amazon.com gift e-certificate
The accomplished feeling I got after breaking up my first fight
Surfing YouTube for random videos

Schweppes Burst slow motion balloons Ad

Forgotten 90s music

nobody@vox.com(iRead) — Mon, 05 May 2008 21:47:41 -0700

Maggie's 90s Music Monday post combined with ripping a bunch of CDs this weekend caused me to search YouTube for random/obscure/forgotten 90s songs. It was a surprisingly successful search.

"On My Own" by Peach Union:

On My Own

"Ready to Go" by Republica:

Republica - Ready To Go (U.S. mix/rock version)

"Kiss the Rain" by Billie Myers:

Billie Myers - Kiss the rain

(I admit it, I still listen to my Peach Union and Billie Myers CDs. Although I can't quite remember where I heard of Peach Union or why I bought their "Audiopeach" CD.)
