Lohandlers

– The gossip whores over at Defamer picked up our Lohan the Lush story (thanks to the BlogFather, Uncle Grambszy) and because of dat, we received more hits yesterday than Cheech & Chong took in all of their movies. And then when I picked up my local free ghetro newspaper, AM New York (click on the paper for a .pdf of today’s edition), this morning, in their ‘Buzz’ section they mentioned the LL lush story and cited Defamer and ‘other sources’. I guess they didn’t want to mention TWS cause of our deep devotion to mustaches and tunafish kitty litter g-strings. Anywho, I’ve got even more dirt on Her Royal Thighness! Rumor has it that she ate lunch AND dinner yesterday! Oh snap. More on this developing story as it happens.

– The wait is finally over. Peep the trailer to Wes Anderson’s latest joint: The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, starring Bill Murray. Is there any possible way this movie is going to be bad? Me thinks snot!!

– A confirmed list of performers have been announced for the CMJ 2004 MUSIC MARATHON, October 13-16. The list includes such hot a$$ talent as AESOP ROCK, CAMPER VAN BEETHOVEN, CLINIC, Q AND NOT U, RJD2, SONDRE LERCHE, SONIC YOUTH, SPARTA, TED LEO/PHARMACISTS, TRAIL OF DEAD, TV ON THE RADIO, VHS OR BETA, WHIRLWIND HEAT and many more!!

– The Archdukes, aka Franz Ferdie, made an oops when they released the CD single for their heteroflexible single “Michael”. They put too many tracks on it and thus it wouldn’t qualify as a single. Their stoopidity is our gain. You can download the extra track “Tell Her Tonight (Paul Sings)” directly from their website.

– New Yakers, click here for free tickets to what is sure to be the wurstest Anaconda movie of them all.

– Do yerself a favor and do these three things this week: BUY Da Ali G Show: Season 1 DVD, RENT Mayor of the Sunset Strip, and EAT Popeyes Fried Chicken.

– I never knew origami had artists, but I guess this guy is the van Gogh of the group.

– And for those of you who didn’t dig deep into the website dedicated to Ilan Mitchell-Smith, shame on you. You missed the fact that he’s currently a Professor of History at an undisclosed US university and this is what he looks like today. Navi and eye will be searching every university across our great land in order to find Wyatt.
