THINGS I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN WITHOUT THE INTERNET

The sheer brilliance of cartoonist Dan Piraro.


The great good humor of the commercials produced for Paso Robles wines.



That I really like Leonard Cohen's poetic songs but I wish Rufus Wainwright would always sing them.  I just think Cohen's drab voice turns a lot of people away from him.  Though on this song, when he goes down for the real low notes, his purity comes through.



Yes, there is a lot of crap out there but there are some good discoveries, too.

  1. It's been a while since a song really grabbed me. But I probably don't listen to music enough.

  3. Crap is often much better than reality these days and not as depressing!

  4. Yes, you are correct! Invest a little time and it is often surprising to see what you can find or learn.

    BTW, Cohen is superb. I like some of this other work even more. DEEP VOICE or not.

  5. I agree. If you're discriminating there are a lot interesting things on the internet. You for one. ;)
