Since our ill-fated Eastern European friends, the Bulgarians, basically only have vodka and don’t get a lot of flavor in their lives, I decided to create them a drink to make their bland experience a little more tasty. Here she is:
The Bulgarian Bulge
3 oz. tomato juice
1.5 oz. Absolut Peppar
1 tbsp. Drambuie
1 tsp. rhubarb syrup
Serve frozen with one olive topped with whipped cream
XM’s Subsoniq had a really good interview with Ben Harper last night. Looks like it’s gonna be replayed again today and Sunday.
Joe from Hot Chip says: “Our Gorillaz remix is now available on white label and mixes of Jim Noir, Adem and Stephen Malkmus should be surfacing soon. Also, we will be completing the second volume of ‘Mixtures’ this week so expect to see that appear in the next month or so.”. Sounds good to me.
Here’s what happened to the Walkmen piano. It sold for $1,025, which is about a buck a pound.
What it’s like @ Gorillaz Live. I’d definitely go, but it’s in freaking Harlem. And Harlem isn’t very close to Boston.
Thom Yorke disses industry for Arctic Monkeys. Or not.
Bloc Party to play Toronto with Broken Social Scene. It’s on June 24th, and Bloc Party ‘Marshalls’ get pre-sale rights tomorrow @ 10 AM.
Freakin’ Katie Couric Moves To CBS
I’m hoping this is the last time she’s in the news. By the way, did you guys realized how jacked that gal is? Me either, word on the street is that she was using the same Balco stuff as Barry Bonds, including goat testosterone and purified ram’s blood. Let’s hope Sen. George Mitchell’s steroid commission will help bring her down before she ruins the lives of those who look up to her.

Good thing I’ve got a 400-billion-mile-tall martini glass and an olive 50,000 times larger than the sun.
Massaschusetts passes bill to require health insurance
This is some tiny step towards universal health care, but for now, merely functions to levee huge penalties on people without insurance. So consider it forced health care.

Kentucky’s Rajon Rondo to hire agent, test draft
Dang. Good luck.
Florida Gators win NCAA Tourney
Man, those dudes are bigger, faster, and smarter than pretty much all other teams combined. I can’t believe I had ‘Nova beating them. Noah set a semi-official record for blocks (they didn’t start counting those things till all the good college centers were retired pros) and the Gators rocked about 37 dunks on UCLA’s grills. Boring game thanks to UCLA’s sucktitude, but still had good action. And congrats to the SEC on winning the NCAA and NIT.

It’s one thing to fill out a bad bracket, but showing millions of people exactly how wrong you are and how stupid you can be is a little worse.

What better way to help people recover from massive devastation than telling them, “You were impregnating our 13-, 12-, 11-year-old children”?

The last thing Williams told the girl was, “Are you ready for some chokehold?”
