Mika-sa es su Casa

It's been a long time since I've posted and here's a list of things I did NOT write about, mainly cause I really just don't care about them:

1. Death of Ana Nicole Smith. Tragic, and sad. But, as a fan of her reality show a few years back, I cannot say that I'm shocked that she may have mixed prescription drugs with alcohol. Honestly, I think that's the sole reason I watched the show in the first place.

2. Britney's Shaved Head. Actually, this is the last time I'm even going to mention the B word. I just don't care about her anymore. Let's all just turn the other way, cause clearly she wants our attention.

3. Justin's new video, "What goes around comes around". As a rule, I don't condone any violence towards women. However, if I was in charge of that video, I would have cast Tara Reid, that's all I'm saying. Also, I would have made it shorter, it's over nine minutes long! Who does he think he is, Michael Jackson?

Anyway, onto more important things. As the (self-proclaimed) PCS, I must admit that I'm pretty good in terms of movies and television, but the world of music isn't my spesh-E-ality. In fact, the last time I read a music magazine was my final Spin back in 1989, with Tone Loc on the cover.

I know, it's pretty sad. The young people at work talk about "The Killers", "The Shins", "The Fall Out Boys", and I have no idea what they are saying. Don't get me wrong, I listen to Top 40, anything that's on Hot 99.5 in the morning. But, I don't really buy full albums anymore, just singles (I still want to call them "casingles" - remember those??).

So, I went on a search to find a new person, to discover TNBT - The Next Big Thing- in music. I called my trusty luckdragon, Falkor, defeated the wolf Gmork, stopped The Nothing, and met the Childlike Empress for you all. It took about an hour.
