[ad]This week around the Blogosphere
Anyone who blogs and reads blogs will know this week that WordPress 2.5 was released finally. Many of you will also note that many bloggers didn’t put much care into their upgrade. At least this wasn’t as bad as an MS Vista release.
In Music NPR has had a pretty good Song of the Day this week. Thursday is Born a Woman by Nick Lowe. It is a great melody with some poignant lyrics. I am not really familiar with Nick’s music but the feel of this song had a definite Fountains of Wayne feel for me. Wednesday was Wonderwall by the Brad Mehldau Trio. It is a catchy jazz version of the Oasis classic. The tune is recognizable enough in the piano and bass parts that Katy looked at me and said “What the fuck! That is Wonderwall!” Tuesday Grand Archive had their moment with Sleepdriving on Tuesday. Austin TV had the Monday week opener with an interesting number in El Secreto (De las Luciérnagas). I barely speak Spanish as it is so the techno meets new way eighties music didn’t help my translation. The music is sort of interesting, but not really my cup of tea.
On the movies front I finally got Alvin and the Chipmunks and will give it a watch as soon as I let Liam have his TV privileges back. Barring that he is back to school on Monday, giving me plenty of time to indulge my inner kid. Ian at Just a Guy Thing gives us 27 Of The Greatest Movie Kill Scenes Ever Made. I’ve seen quite a number of these and definitely agree with their inclusion.
Last but not least we lost Ramiele Malubay on Idol. It was a moment sad to see her go this week for the simple fact I don’t get to see many hot asian women on TV that can sing. Unfortunately she was the last of the really hot ones, which leaves us with far less attractive, but just just as girly David Archuletea to massacre more music next week. Hopefully Daddy will ground him and forbid him to play idol next week.
