Catchall

Posting on twitter has kind of quelled my opinion diffusion need, but here are some things I still had to get off my chest.

This Times article links to Zenni Optical, which I posted about before, some other online merchants that look like they may be superior in price and frame selection, and a site that reviews them all. I want every color of this $139 style. If you find any perfectly clear frames let me know.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona 4/5
I think I've found a new hobby in searching twitter for keywords that intrigue me and hoping that I'll find a kindred spirit who is interested in the same semi-obscurities. This twitter user could uncover the next thing that, to quote Woody Allen, "makes life worth living" for me. Yes, I know the answer doesn't lie in: mumblecore, "The Last Days of Disco", "13 Tzameti", and Max Tundra.

Even if I glean nothing more than the tip to hold down on the ctrl or command key when you click on a link to have it open in a new tab I will consider my time on twitter well spent.

I'm stone cold insane about the 2008 releases by Dr. Dog 8/10, She & Him 8/10, Mates of States 8/10, and Max Tundra 7/10. Some of those I totally missed and others I just didn't listen to for a second time until recently.
