Monday, February 08, 2010 WHY THE PAIN ![]() Fun with GIFs from more subway photo research--play around with your own hand-made GIFs here.

Well, here it is, a week later, and the cap is still there. Apparently the subway attendants have grabbers to retrieve such lost items but I think my cap is just doomed to die on the tracks until it disintegrates or is carried off by rats to help augment their Flotilla Toward God that will eventually take down all of the humans left on earth.

I love and will always love Rachel's forever. I have just managed to come across mp3s of two not really available Rachel's tracks that I've been trying to nab forever.

Sadly, I still haven't been able to track it down--but I do now have its first track. The other track here is a Rachel's penned tune from director Greg King's film Rotating Mirror, featuring a score done entirely by members of the Rachel's. Enjoy! LISTEN/DOWNLOAD:

There is so little quality food in this neighborhood that anyone with a tongue for flavor but a small wallet must scour the nookiest nooks to find even semi-solid values (thank god for midtownlunch.com). As a result of this total shitshow on non-food possibility, I more or less subsist by eating Halal food or mediocre Global Kitchen pizza. Every once in a while though I get a craving for Chinese food and I cave in and go to a take-out place conveniently located directly across the street, Yips. Sadly, every single time it is a terrible mistake. Don't buy into the semi-positive Midtown Lunch testimony--Yips is absolutely horrible. There is nothing at all good about Yips, other than the fact that it's relatively cheap. Their food, ALL of which is astonishingly greasy, is definitely in a top 5 category of least satisfying Chinese food i've ever eaten. I have had the misfortune of going to Yips exactly six times, and each time I have finished my meal swearing to myself that I will never EVER go there again, no matter how alluring cheap Chinese food may seem. And yet, every eight or so months enough time has passed since the last time and I'll start talking myself down, slowly... until finally I'm outside and finding myself walking in. "It's not as bad as I'm remembering it," I say. "You have a tendency to exaggerate," I remind myself (which is true). But then I go in, order, and eat, and every time.... gah. Terrible. Some people never learn.

I gave Mark my Holga to use but didn't really explain the whole rudimentary film advancing process of them and therefore there are a bunch of neat shots sort of like that.

"But really it doesn't bother me if it makes people uncomfortable. If they have issues with it that's their problem." JeffreyBeaumont: also, there are four consecutive hilarious comments by someone named "Jamie1977" JeffreyBeaumont: "Act like a man you if you were my son I'd take you into the back garden and give you a few slaps, although no doubt being some effeminate swede you would back down and cry or run away instead of being a man" Sanam: that is amazing Sanam: "What happened to the race of men that were once hard bastard Vikings ???" Sanam: she makes a good point Sanam: I've often wished that more men in my life would act like vikings Sanam: or specifically, dress like vikings JeffreyBeaumont: hahahahahah. JeffreyBeaumont: i don't even understand this, other than that he's not so keen on "japs": JeffreyBeaumont: "Probaly the same as those idiot Japs, for some strange and bizarre reason Japanese men are wearing bra's god only knows why but when I think of Japs I think of hard warriors, Samurai, good machines, Honda, suzuki and good techological know how and hard souless trading techniques that made Japanese Buisneses the way it is !!!!" JeffreyBeaumont: the fact that there are four lengthy and somewhat disconnected comments spaced 5 minutes apart too adds to the whole, "yep" factor Sanam: I like the one addressed specifically to the guy Sanam: "hey dude," Sanam: also important to point out: this guy is reading the SF Gate, which is the most liberal, pansy ass newspaper in the world JeffreyBeaumont: he feels like he's gotta speak four times to make up for the dearth of Real CountryMen Sanam: seriously Sanam: I can dig it, though Sanam: when I went down south Sanam: I suddenly felt very protective of my country Sanam: and also very suspicious of liberal yankee fucks Sanam: like evan and joe Sanam: if one of them had started breastfeeding, I probably would've punched them in the face Sanam: it's all about context ALSO: JeffreyBeaumont: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfmoms/detail?entry_id=47119 jaychampvinyl: hahahahaah holy shit jaychampvinyl: he's just pumping away jaychampvinyl: waiting for milk jaychampvinyl: that's horrible jaychampvinyl: where the fuck does he think it's going to come from??

Holy cow, the fun continues. Still making my way through photos and came across this hilarious shot taken in Walt Whitman Park after walking over the Brooklyn Bridge with Mia at 9am (we woke up at 7 and walked from Union Square all the way there--first time I'd ever been down Broadway in daylight without seeing any humans): many dudes, maybe 30, playing soccer** and seemingly rejoicing in great harmony of the leather ball and togetherness. And one of them among them, with the longest, most insane dreadlock ever worn by man. It's not entirely easy to make the whole thing out (I really should have asked him to pose up close) but basically the man has a few long locks, two which are so lengthy that one is wrapped around his waist like a belt (AND around his neck like a necklace) and the other drapes all the way down to his shins. Meaning, he is an actual human approximation of Bib Fortuna. !!!!!!!!!! Good times here, always. New York, have I mentioned to you recently how much I love you? NOTES: **-- Mia groaned after when we got near them after realizing when I'd said they were playing fussball and not (American) football. "Oh, this" she said, deflated and instantly bored, "What do you Americans call this, Suck-er? This reminds me of every boring minute of my life."

Hilariously though, check out in the screenshot below in the "Customers who bought this music also bought:" section..... ![]() Ummmmmm.... REALLY? I know this is all high merger days shit and whatnot but WHAT??? Six rap records, albeit with one admittedly supercracker release (sorry, Brother Ali), but all hiphop and five of them of the uberhiphop variety. And then... GIRLS, Album. Seriously. I would surprised but not too surprised if Beck or MGMT popped up here... but GIRLS (or should I say, Dudes)? Weird.

Saying this as a man who goes out of his way to discover strange errata, this "piece" is quite possibly the most insane thing I have ever (attempted to) read. Please read the piece for yourself--it is beyond surreal (literally). And then check out this interview with Callahan, which doesn't do anything to clear up the idea that Callahan might be, as described by Deadspin, "batshit insane". Sometimes life is just nothing but crazy.

Wednesday, September 30, 2009 Doing It The Hard Way, Always ![]() On the topic of fairly random and unhelpful statistical lumpings, one such category would be absolutely meaningless "_____ greatest by a player who bats righty, throws lefty." Why? Basically NO ONE bats righty and throws lefty. Like, really, NO ONE. You would think out of only six possible batting/throwing combos (right/left/switch batting x right/left throwing) there would be a decent dispersion of players in all categories, and there is... in the other five. But of the righty swingers lefty throwers category there has really just only been a strange small handful -- literally 25. Steve Treder of The Hardball Times earlier this year did us the service of evaluating and ranking all twenty-five of them, which you can read here. A glimpse through the names yields but five that present any note to me: 5) Brian Hunter (the stocky first-baseman, not the light-hitting CF speedster Brian Hunter holds a bit of note to me as he was responsible for sharing first-base duties in the early 90s Braves Dynasty with Sid Bream (whoa, that name doesn't even sound real anymore) before Fred McGriff was brought on-board in July 1993 and my entire world exploded. As the Braves have been my favorite team for the past twenty seasons, all of their various men have meant something to me at one point or another and Hunter is no different. However, at his peak--which lasted about two seasons--he was a decent platooon player, but no more 4) Jason Lane A recent supporting player on the Houston Astrosin the earlier part of this decade. I am familiar with his exploits. 3) Cody Lane A recent supporting player for the Florida Marlins. I am not familiar with his exploits but I have heard his name mentioned before. 2) Ryan Ludwick A legitimately good player who had an excellent past two seasons for St. Louis before this year's relative mediocrity (though he has been coming on stronger as the year comes to a close). And of course, our top dog: 1) Rickey Henderson Literally the only player on this list to have a great or arguably even good career, The Rickey is The Man when it comes to Bats Lefty, Throws Righty. Once again, Rickey, like with everything else he's done, stands alone. Of course, this entire topic is of slightly greater note to one Jeffrey Beaumont, because ... drum roll... like all of these men, he too bats righty, and throws lefty. Which probably makes me the twenty-ninth greatest Bats Righty, Throws Lefty ballplayer ever (hey, I could throw 74 mph when I was in 9th grade). Seriously though, this is not something I choose--and according to Treder, of all the six possiblities is the least physically advantageous combination I could have been (Still, thanks, Dad!). And doesn't this description more or less define my entire existence: So here we've got athletes displaying enough ambidextrousness to bat one way and throw the other. Yet not only do they eschew the switch-hitting option (which admittedly is far easier to do in theory than in practice), these guys find themselves in the least advantageous circumstance both offensively and defensively. One hopes it came about through some manner of unusual and immutable brain wiring, because to the extent that deliberate decision-making might have been involved, these guys got it double-wrong. It's so perfectly deprarious I couldn't have dreamt it better myself. Me and Rickey, down by the schoolyard.
