Here's Hoping...
Tonight is our 2nd Annual New Years at the Beach. Without gushing too much, last year was far better than we could have ever imagined and it is going to be a tall order indeed to recreate that fun.

One of my favorite documentaires - of the reflexive persuasion. And then I got drunk with the filmmaker and we cried about our families and hugged. I want to do more stuff like that.

You are so young, so much before all beginning, and I would like to beg you, dear Sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign tongue.

5. The Pitchfork “Top 500 Songs” Book—Apparently, in the rush to become our generation’s Rolling Stone, the indie-crit tastemaker inadvertently bypassed the righteous Lester Bangs/Hunter Thompson years and landed somewhere in the mire of that magazine’s bloated, self-parodying culture-factory era.
