Ok then. NOW it's Friday.

I exuberantly titled an email "TGIF!" yesterday and facepalmed when I discovered I'd jumped the gun.  I... couldn't wait.  This has been a long week and it just needs to come to a relaxing close. Seriously.

I owe betaz! I haven't forgotten. I am writing a story too, and keep being distracted by interesting stuff on my f-list.  Stop it! :D  

Some things:

- The Onion's AV Club reports on more documentaries about fans and fandom - there are things coming out focusing on the public's relationship with Arrested Development, Calvin and Hobbes and others. I might like to see  The Achievers: The Story Of The Lebowski Fans.  Ah, The Big Lebowski.    "Smokey, this is not 'Nam. This is bowling. There are rules."

-  copperbadge  is putting his space opera (yeah!) up for us to read and would like feedback. The Valet of Anize starts here.

-  I'm drinking Pepsi Cola THROWBACK. Made with natural sugar!  I'm not really certain I like this, but I normally drink Diet Pepsi anyway if I have a soft drink.. The name makes me think of genetic throwbacks. I'll let you know if I start shambling around on all fours.






Happy tambourine guy makes me happy.

ETA: I love everything about this video. KC's earnest crooning at the steadicam operator, his big white pointy collar, the tambourine guy's braces with a short-sleeved shirt, and the song. I even like the remakes by Double You and KWS.

AND a song which, like an out-of-context Big Lebowski quote, rarely applies to anything. Today it fucking does, though. Because it's Friday, August 14th.  :D :D

I have never heard of THROWBACK pop, what's the deal here?

I guess... it's RETRO? No high-fructose corn syrup or synthetic sucrose or whatever they usually put in Pepsi.

It's old school pop.

Tastes... like Pepsi. I am eager to see if I start bouncing off the walls or something.
