““I used to drink Hennessy … at halftime,” Ron Artest said in an interview with the Sporting News, which is publishing the story in its Dec. 7 issue. “I [kept it] in my locker. I’d just walk to the liquor store and get it.””

It was recently brought to my attention that these pictures exist. You can read all about them and see more of them here and while the link lasts, here. But, the gist is that there were taken by Andy Warhol and are very ace. Here are my favorites…

The Gates

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:53:49 -0500

Yesterday, Jeanne-Claude died at the age of 74. This may not seem like the kind of thing I would blog about. However, her and her husband, Christo, were seriously bad-assed artists who dies some pretty ace stuff. Most of their projects were very large scale things, and were all very cool (you can read about them on that same wikipedia page).

In 2005, they did The Gates. The artists installed 7,503 orange gates along 23 miles of pathways in Central Park in New York City. I remember seeing them… it was very awesome… it was very ace.

Hey, look at this… he’s actually going to write something.

This past weekend was the first annual CBCO, Chris’ Birthday Cook Off. It was by brother Chris’ 30th birthday celebration and it was a cook off party. Everyone made either apple pie or lasagna. Well, everyone except me. My sister Emily and I made apple lasagna…. I know right, so ace. It could have turned out terribly, but it was actually relatively good. In fact, it was relatively good enough that we won the award for people’s choice. Everyone at the party, about 25 people, tasted every pie and lasagna and gave them all scores. Our apple lasagna was the most popular in the pie category. I now have a trophy. Not many people can say they have won a cooking award, but I’m not many people - in fact I am only one people, or rather one person, scientifically I am only one human being.

Another thing to note is the sweetness of train travel. We took the train from Montreal to Toronto on friday and are now on it going back to Montreal. The train I am on now is especially awesome. Very luxurious. You might remember that I have discussed the aceness of train travel before on this blog and it blogspot predecessor, so I will not go into it now, but believe you me: it’s ace.

Perhaps I will try to write more posts for this blog. Lord knows I have plenty of stupid things to write about, but I’m just so busy - well, let me rephrase that, I’m not busy.

Lastly, Creed’s 20 seconds in this past week’s episode of The Office… FTMFW

Larry David: the funniest man on television, OR the funniest man on television? You decide. Even on Hannah Montana, he is still very funny. And besides, who doesn’t love having the best of both worlds?

Rooftop Beatles

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 16:33:09 -0400

With Beatles: Rock Band coming out and all sorts of revamped BeatleMania going on these days, its hard not to think about how awesome this band really was. Of course, most people agree they we’re a really good band, but it seems as though (for me at least) I was simply told they were good from childhood and went with that. I never really thought about why there were truly so good. For a while, I even rebelled against society and thought that The Beatles were ‘just ok’. I know, crazy right?

Although I wasn’t a huge fan for some time, I couldn’t argue the fact that they do have some really great songs, some of my favorite songs in fact. And then I started to make an aggressive choice to listen to them more and learn more about them. The second part of this task was quite easy since there seems to be an unlimited amount of information on the planet’s favorite band ever. Listening to the band wasn’t particularly hard either, but it did require me to think more about why this band is what it is.

I think part of what makes The Beatles so important and special and awesome is just the fact that they were the first in so many ways. For a large part, music like that of The Beatles didn’t exist before them. They kind of invented some of this music, which today seems so normal and common. Today, I listen to a song like Get Back and think, “Yeah, its a sweet song, but I feel like I know it already”, but back in 1969, I probably would have thought something more like, “OH MAN, THIS IS FLIPPING AWESOME”.

This may not really be news to anyone, but what I really wanted to convey in this post, is the video I have included below of their rooftop concert. It was their last time playing together live. So, that’s pretty chill. After I watched this, I just kind of thought that no matter what you think of The Beatles, however much you love them or not, this outdoor concert is one of the cooler things ever to happen in music or in pop culture. I’ve included the first of three parts someone posted on youtube. The 2nd and 3rd part can be found in the “related videos” on the side.

Really… just so ace.
