The Last Judgement by Michelangelo

Some helpful advice for you, my friends: don't fall asleep while watching the History Channel's two-hour line up of end times prophecies and apocalypse theories. Yikes.

Good News!

I am thrilled to read this article from my Americans for the Arts Cultural Policy Listserv. Live Nation is opening up its own in-house ticketing service! Yay for competition in the market. I am always griping about astronomical ticket prices (mostly because of the stupid fees), so I give major props to Live Nation for standing up to Ticketmaster. Live Nation rules. The best part? They won't charge you a fee for printing your tickets at home!

I'm watching the first season of Little Britain, courtesy of Netflix (I love you, Netflix). Like most comedy shows, it takes a minute for me to get into it. But then I really start to like it (by the way, have you seen Spaced yet? It's so fab!). Currently, HBO is broadcasting episodes of Little Britain: USA, which I haven't seen yet. It's supposed to be like a fourth season of the original show. I think that the best character is actually the narrator...he has the strangest commentary that's easy to miss if you're not paying attention (his name is Tom Baker, but I have no idea who he is). Apparently, Mollie Sugden guest stars in the final episode, which I am looking forward to greatly. I loved Are You Being Served? and have probably seen each episode at least twice.

Tonight, I will leave you with this set of videos from Strindberg + helium.
