  Die Antwoord - Who the hell knows what the song is called

  Quite unsafe for work. And beyond perplexing. South Africa…who knew?

  Remember when the Vikings were playing football and they almost won? And there were all sorts of late hits on Favre that didn’t get called, but should have?

  Well, Favre’s ankle looked like an eggplant, as illustrated in the supposed photo of it. Bring Me The News and brung it. Sick.

• The White Stripes - You Don’t Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You’re Told)

  Rock your Wednesday’s socks off!

  Twin Cities Maker is going to have a Mini Maker Faire at the Hack Factory on February 13th, 2010! Come one, come all! We’re planning to have the fun start at 2 PM with local makers exhibiting and playing in the newly acquired space. We will also have an Art Show and Party later that night for people to come and experience the space and have some refreshments.

  You might want to go ahead and plan on coming to this.

  Megafaun - Impressions of the Past

  Groovy, groovy, jazzy, funky. Pounce, bounce, dance as we dip in the melodic sea.

• Megafaun and Bon Iver - Worried Mind in Omaha

  Jealous of the folks at that show. Beards, (and mic issues) indeed.

• Megafaun - The Fade

  Have a nice monday, dude[tte]s.

  January in San Francisco. When you can confidently trade your daily weather forecast for a daily umbrella. Stupid rain.

  Come to Minnesota, Merlin. No rain! Just snow and highs in the teens this week. (Heat wave!)

• Writing to ‘get it right the first time’ is like driving a car with the emergency brake on. In order to write more good stuff faster, and suffer less, you need to focus on removing the stalling, obsessing, and nitpicking from your composing process, and to think about a different kind of process.

  I’m not a writer, but I do write. The more I write, the more I realize this advice is excellent. And hard to do.
