(UPDATE: I changed the first sentence of this post because the whole thing was just a cheap boner joke and I only believe in earned boner jokes.)
If I’d remembered Adam had a thing for MINIS as he discussed on yesterday’s podcast, I would have told him about how I’d hosted videos for MINI from the LA Auto Show a couple years ago and from the MINIspace rooftop thing the year before and how I’d driven an electric MINI and a crapload of non-electric MINIS and how no one appreciated when I suggested a MINI party bus be named a MAXI. But I didn’t tell him. But I’m telling you guys. Mostly just because I think my image is kind of marshmallow-y so I like when I can show you that I’m no stranger to tuff stuff. Not that these videos are tuff stuff. Also, when did I start using the phrase “tuff stuff”? In the previous two sentences. But I’d recommend just reading the posts (click older entries at the bottom because I think only 5 or 10 per page show up) instead of actually watching the videos which aren’t my best work by any means. Well, some of them are. But some of them aren’t.
What else did I want to tell you? Well right now there is a shower cap clamped to a hanger dangling from a rafter outside, as if we are scaring off bad hair or hanging it in effigy. It’s actually because the thing reeks so significantly of mothballs I considered for a moment that the reason old people smell like mothballs is because they use this kind of shower cap. What’s with a young person like me even owning a shower cap? Sometimes I need to take a quick shower and don’t want my hair to get wet. Plus they just look cool. (note: they DO NOT look cool) It’s just not any shower cap though, it’s a special fancy one with a terry cloth lining inside which looked appealing until I opened it up and realized the terry cloth was made from freshly spun mothballs. Or maybe the smell is coming from some other toxic source. Maybe it’s the vinyl. Regardless I’m pretty sure I should place it in a drum deep in the bowels of the sea but I’m giving it a chance to air out. If a bunch of birds drop from the sky directly over this house then we’ll know this was a mistake.
Oh, also? Tom Rapp who writes and performs all the music for my show has started a blog about it so you should go there!
