in recent tv news
lots of olympic watching was done over the past few weeks. i liked snowboarding, especially the snowboard cross. lea liked short track speed skating. i will now summarize the olympics. the best thing about the olympics: an american named ’seth’ won a gold metal. the worst thing about the olympics: dick button.
the new line of mcdonalds commercials for their premium coffee, in which people wake up to their lives, has a sufficiently dark enough undertone that i find them quite enjoyable. i loathe most mcdonalds commercials, including the still-running “add a little spice to your life” line.
trip-hop is still well liked by the people who pick songs for tv ads. the new victoria’s secret spot sports a portishead song, and some other commercial is playing hooverphonic’s “this strange effect.” it’s only a matter of time before somebody is gutsy enough to run something like tricky’s “christiansands,” which has a very cool sound to it.
shane, on survivor, is bat-shit crazy.
