MUSIC - Essential Kings of Leon

I'm a huge KOL fan. Here's the essentials if you're just getting started:

Cinammon (yes, it was in an iPod commercial...it's still a great song)

Molly's Chambers

King of the Rodeo (live...& incredible!)

Revelry (perfect for the end of the night at the moontower)

California Waiting (Alternate Version)

MOVIE QUOTES - Raising Arizona (1987)

This movie has become so much more than just a cult classic to me and various family and friends through the years. I can always turn to this Coen Brothers classic when I need a good laugh, and some down-home, gritty humor. I consider it one of Nicolas Cage's best movies.

Some of my favorite quotes:

They've got a name for people like you H.I. That name is called "recidivism."
Repeat offender!

Gale: All right, ya hayseeds, it's a stick-up. Everybody freeze. Everybody down on the ground.
Feisty Hayseed: Well, which is it, young feller? You want I should freeze or get down on the ground? Mean to say, if'n I freeze, I can't rightly drop. And if'n I drop, I'm a-gonna be in motion. You see...
Gale: Shut up!
Feisty Hayseed: Okay then.
Gale: Everybody down on the ground!
Evelle: Y'all can just forget that part about freezin' now.
Gale: Better still to get down there.
Evelle: Yeah, y'all hear that, don't ya?
[Everybody lays down. Gale looks at the now-empty teller windows]
Gale: Shit! Where'd all the tellers go?
Teller's voices: We're down here, sir.
Evelle: They're on the floor as you commanded, Gale.

Ed McDonnough: [sobbing] Turn to the right.
H.I.: What's the matter, Ed?
Ed McDonnough: My "fy-ance" left me.
H.I.: [narrating] She said her fiancé had run off with a student cosmetologist, who knew how to ply her feminine wiles.
H.I.: [out loud] That sumbitch. You tell him, I think he's a damn fool, Ed. You tell him I said so - H.I. McDonnough. If he wants to discuss it, he knows where to find me: in the Maricopa County Maximum Security Correctional Facility For Men State Farm, Road Number 31, Tempe, Arizona! I'LL BE WAITIN'! I'll be waitin'.

Kings of Leon - King of the Rodeo

This video is BRILLIANT...I'm glad I have it now:

It's A Major Award!

By far, my favorite gift of the season. Now proudly displaying the soft glow of electric sex to my neighbors and others who pass by...

The Metrodome Roof Collapses

This is one of the best videos I've seen this year. EPIC fail! If Favre was caught under all of this, maybe...just maybe...he'd retire.
