Got "Good Dick"?

Every now and then, skimming through the rentals - you come across a hidden gem of an indie film. "Good Dick" is a film written, directed, produced and even starred in by Marianna Palka whose artistic talent explores the connection of a new relationship. Jason Ritter plays to perfection, a video store clerk who initiates a relationship with the weirdly isolated customer played by Palka by - offering up suggestions on the porn that she rents.

What ensues, is the fine dance of two dis-similar people coming together to provide companionship, love and dysfunction.

Happiness For Happiness Sake!

It seemed like every one's point of view today was to stop taking their life for granted. It's as if the Collective Conscious woke up today and said "stop bitching...your life is OK!" Even the Grocer had some insight to speak of rather than the usual casual banter of the checkout line. Today was different and he was relishing his newfound happiness for his life.

It was exactly what I needed to hear, too often it is easy to bemoan the trials of life and forget that these trials or tests are to prepare, enrich and when looked upon closely - realize it could be a lot worse!

The Last.FM Radio Station You'll Ever Need!

I've checked out a few of the Internet radio sites. So far, Last.FM is my favorite. Containing a fairly extensive database of music with the capability to expand music tastes by recommendation of similar artists based upon the contents of your itunes library. Scrolling through the music, track name or listed artist - check out the artist's bio, photo or videos and...Don't forget the tour dates to have the opportunity to see a favorite or newly discovered artist live!

Unlike Pandora, Last.FM's ability to make different radio stations based on multiple artists, favorite artist, genre, or a particular track offers greater selection. An instant favorite for me is "Stand-up Radio" with artists like Bill Burr, Joe Rogan, Nick Swardson, Ralphie May and Jim Gaffigan the spot on humor has helped long office work hours fly by.

Just a reminder - to those of you in cubicle world KEEP the headsets plugged in and the laughter kept to a minimum, even though inside you will feel the need to roll back and forth on ground giddy from laughter because it's really that good!
