GOOGLE IS WATCHING YOU!


This is a google street level image of my car. Parked in front of my house. Weird. It's very big brother. I feel a little alienated by google. Creepy.

Are you Jew?

I gave "Are you Jew?" its' first tasting today. I put a little bit of it in a cup, and swirled it around a bit. It smelled okay. No floaties. Excellent. I took a sip it was a lot sweeter than I imagined it would be, and it was carbonated! Huh? Wine isn't supposed to be carbonated. I checked online for remedies to de-fizz wine. One clever method was to siphon it through a vacuum to remove the carbonation. Very cool, but not too practical for me. A simpler method is to literally stir the crud out of it, which is what I chose to do. When I stirred it all the bubbles came to the top and gave my wine a nice head to it. It looked like beer. I have to stir it now every day for about a week or so. I get to bottle it in about two months in some really cool bottles I got from Ikea.

So many to choose from

I've been listening to the Girl from Ipanema a lot lately. I'm not sure why. Anyhow, I've come across many different versions of the song.

Vienna boys choir... strange.

Kompressor's Version - Kompressor is a side project of sorts of Drew from Toothpaste for dinner. I prefer his work on his webcomic.



On Stylophone... Hmmm...


Disco version:


And of course, The girl from ipanema... Goes to iceland. ?



Humming urban stereo also does a version. Ask jarrett about humming urban stereo.
