Modest Mouse – Fire It Up

YouTube – Modest Mouse-Fire It Up.

Featuring Johnny Marr. I just heard this song while I was having lunch. I haven’t heard all of the songs on this album, but I like this one. I have a lot of the older Modest Mouse albums, but not the more recent ones. It’s ironic because I think I like [...]

A farewell to covered arms (and necks)
Apartment 3-G, 9/8/10 Makeover victim #1, revealed! Margo’s here and she’s, eh, not actively laughable. Still, this seems like it might be kind of overcompensation: Kat has reacted to Margo’s penchant for turtlenecks by forcing her to wear the exact opposite of a turtleneck, a dress with a top that’s as low as possible while […]
The hillbilly horror
Barney Google and Snuffy Smith, 9/7/10 In all my years of reading the strip, I have encountered few scenes in Snuffy Smith more harrowing than panel two here.

Justice for dollars
Slylock Fox, 9/6/10 One of the great meta-mysteries of the Slylock Fox strip is: who exactly is Slylock’s employer? Does he work for the mostly dog-staffed police force, or is he a private eye for hire? Today’s strip seems to suggest the latter. The library system, not trusting the generally incompetent law enforcement […]
All illness edition
Rex Morgan, M.D., 9/5/10 Whoah, it looks like our drama involving the sinister brew of prostate cancer and bare-knuckle city politics isn’t over after all! The fact that this story leaked out shouldn’t come as surprise, since Rex already shot his mouth off about it to June and who knows who else. But if […]
