GIRL TALK



He got me, the bastard got me.Now I've been hearing about this "Girl Talk" for quite some time now, but not until recently did I decide to even hear how his music sounds. It's a mashup of about 30 songs or so per track and it works, some of the songs that he pairs up are just so wrong, you have to giggle and then start dancing to it. Not all of the tracks work, like when Jimi Hendrix comes out of nowhere, it sounded more like an accident. Anyways, don't believe me, check out his myspace at.

www.myspace.com/girltalk

From there you can listen to his whole album, and buy it. For free (Radiohead style) pay $5 or $10. If you buy the $10 option you get extras plus a physical copy of the CD when it comes out. For now I have to say, Feed the Animals.

BLOW WOAH!!!! DUNN'S RIVA A COME TO WI!


In case you haven't been watching the news, been online, or just living in Wisconsin for that matter, the wonderful and great Mr. Olafur Eliasson, has decided to grace lovely NYC with waterfalls!!!! They're open from now to October 13, and they represent something or another about NY. I know that they have 4 = boroughs. ( I know there are 5 boroughs, but Staten Island does not count)
They are located at

Brooklyn Bridge (looks kinda awkward) [picture]
Pier 35
Governor's Island
Brooklyn Piers



I would recommend the one at Governor's Island, because
  1. Free ferry ride
  2. It look di prettiest
  3. You can rent a bike and have a bike ride while you're at it

My Man-Jamaican Puppets

If there was a Jamaican version to crank yankers, it would probably be like this, watch the puppets movements for even more laughter
