rodents and the red carpet, episode 3: it's getting heated. saw jessica hecht (aka ross's ex-wife's new wife from friends) on the way home from the video cafe; while wondering whether or not to count her (conclusion: 0.5), passed ethan hawke on a cell phone. the giant rat struck back this morning in front of the red eye cafe (home of the dancing shrimp).

rats: 2.5
star: 3


whiled away the hours yesterday by designing a shirt for threadless (with emergency layer help from lesley); am sure it will be savaged by the regulars, but it kept me busy. will update if i make it past the submission trolls.

i was thinking of caving and posting the unguessed songs, but no! do not go gently into that good night. now that ye comments exist - retroactively, even, to my great surprise - i'm hoping more guesses will pop up here (nudge nudge).

i put a lot of onions in sandwiches. so's you know.

smiths: how soon is now?

lauren said...

nope. hint: first appeared in the u.s. on, i think, "louder than bombs." i'm surprised uncle paul hasn't guessed it.

furiousmuse said...

oh oh! "shoplifters of the world unite" ?
hee hee. if that isn't it... i dunno..."hand in glove"?

lauren said...

nope and also nope. second hint: it has a fairly classic 'pope of mope' line.

furiousmuse said...
