I Said Hey, What's Going On?

*It is a spectacularly rainy day today. I wish I had my camera to show you just how spectacular it is. Lovely.

*Life is pretty good right now - staying moderately frustrated and very busy at work and moderately busy but not very frustrated in the rest of my life: planning the occassional party, getting ready for the occassional roadtrip, and other miscellaneous mundanities.

*Watched a few episodes of the British version of The Office. After about 10 minutes of adapting to the accent enough to know what was going on, I found it to be...interesting. Not as funny as the American version, but probably only because I get American stereotypes. The Brit version definitely had more high-brow jokes (Latin references and such that would be lost on most Americans), but it also had more crude jokes ("more" in terms of quality rather than quantity). I didn't expect the episodes to have the exact same plot lines. That was bizarre. Pretty funny, though.

*Am I allowed to say this? Best quote of yesterday (I won't say by whom or about whom): "He's 25% gay, you know? I mean, he wouldn't kiss another dude, but he would definitely buy a Kenny G album."

*Right up my alley: Wikiquote. I must say though, Wiktionary is no dictionary.com.

Title of your post - referring to 4 Non Blondes' "What's Up?" ? I've had them on the brain lately - I miss them, actually.

"...and I say hey... hey...
I said hey, what's goin' on"
Great now I got to go download that song.

That entire album is actually really good. Kooky and crazy, some of the tracks, but I really liked it way back when - it was before I ever even had a CD player, so I'm sure the tape is long-lost...I need to download the whole thing!

Ah, yes: Bigger, Better, Faster, More. I had it on CD but I'm not sure if I still do. I didn't listen to it a lot, but I probably spent half of the summer of '93 watching the "What's Up?" video.
