Today I heard a remake of Tom Cochrane’s “Life Is a Highway” on the radio. Is today’s new breed of teenager so XXXtreme! that they can’t just listen to the original, which is quite possibly the sweetest road song ever written?

The Elvis Trooper is an Elvis impersonator who dresses up like a Stormtrooper from Star Wars. He is somehow able to compress the awesomeness of this universe into a pocket universe that he keeps in the curls on his forehead.

Please, if you care about comics or creativity at all, watch this pilot for The Amazing Screw-On Head, and do the accompanying survey. It’s made by the creator of Hellboy, Mike Mignola, and stars Paul Giamatti as the voice of Screw-on Head. I’d love for this show to be picked up. Something about parallel histories to our own going back hundreds of years fills me with feelings I’ve come to describe as the shivers.

I looked for my belt for a good 5 minutes before I realized that I was wearing it already.

The sunflowers are growing near the corner again.

The conflict between Hezbollah and Israel isn’t restricted to firing rockets into enemy territory. Both sides are altering the Wikipedia article on the Israel-Lebanon conflict with innacuracies, and some shocking images to demonize each other, including photos of dead children.

Thanks to Adam for the heads up.

Today, I went to my bank to get a new debit card. I found out the other day that my debit card had a restriction put on it, because the bank suspected that someone was trying to get access to my account (which I thank them for… looking out for your patrons is always a good idea). How did I find out, you ask? Well, it was when I was trying to buy groceries so I could, you know, LIVE for another week. Everything is sorted out now though, so hopefully my money won’t get stolen.

It’s a sad day for couples who look exactly the same as their SO. Dave Navarro and Carmen Electra have split up. Consult your local news sources at once for details.

A lot can happen in the span of a week. I won’t be talking about anything that happened in the past week though.

Yesterday marked the birthday of a good friend of the Pleasant Interruption crew. He turned 22! It’s strange to see all your friend’s ages increase each year, but still feel like you’re that ackward 16 year old boy. I’m not sure where I’m going with this, so let’s end it here for now.

Regular updates will begin again tomorrow! Cheers, world!

Well, tomorrow morning I’m off to Newfoundland. This will be my first time going out there so it shall be an interesting adventure. I’m going to go compete at the national karate championships (my 8th time I believe) which is always a blast so I’m really pumped.

I will report back with stories and pictures in a week’s time.
