Wooh! Go Elliott BROOD!

Wow... http://pitchfork.com/news/35834-polaris-music-prize-shortlist-revealed/

"Fucked Up's The Chemistry of Common Life, Great Lake Swimmers' Lost Channels, Malajube's Labyrinthes, Chad VanGaalen's Soft Airplane, K'naan's Troubadour, previous winner Patrick Watson's Wooden Arms, and Metric's Fantasies are all up for this year's prize. Elliott BROOD, Hey Rosetta!, and Joel Plaskett round out the list."

7/10 ain't bad!

Since I posted the long list, I've learned to adore Hey Rosetta! so I'm happy with that. Also Fucked Up is good for what they do, just not my type of music.

Although Patrick Watson...hmmm. I'm not convinced it deserved to be there.

Stressed.

My thesis was originally saved under the name "thesis.doc."
Then it became "thesis version 1-1" I thought that was logical.
"thesis version 1-2" followed by "thesis version 1-3", etc. It made sense.

I then submitted, in May, "thesis final version."

In June, when it was obvious that it wasn't final, I started saving it under "thesis version 2"
Then 2-1, 2-2, and so on.
I submitted it as version 2-7.

My 2nd revision was "Thesis version 3.doc" 
Then 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, and so on.
I submitted it as version 3-4.

I eventually reached "Thesis version 5-2.doc"

Finally, yesterday, when I thought all I had to do was the final changes on my conclusion, I titled my file "Thesis almost almost almost done.doc"

This morning, I found out my one of my committee members has been laid off (meaning I have to find a new member who will want to do revisions) and my other committee member felt he should add some more revisions.

My new file is called : "Thesis version Goddamn It All To Hell.doc"

I think I'm losing my patience.

Cocaine...and tapered jeans


To continue with the hipster theme, Brasstronaut's Requiem for a scene. I adore this jazz-rock tune.

Rebel!

Is it just me or should George Lucas be a bit suing Square Enix?

Endor Rebel Infantry (of Star Wars) :



a better look at the helmet :




Moogle Fusilier (of SquareEnix's Final Fantasy Tactics A2) :


Okay so, the moogle is cuter, but the hat. Come on. the neck strap, the tan coloured top, the shoulder bullet belt...heck even the colours are similar.

Maybe I'm just seeing too much into this.
