I think I have gotten ericmvan hooked on Babylon 5. Perhaps I should not be so proud of this, but cue the megalomaniacal laughter anyway. I want it all back the way it was . . .

Even if I never did finish watching S4 of Babylon-5.

Season 4 was good, if a little rushed toward the end. Season 5 had large stretches of intermittence, but some truly spectacular episodes. I need a Babylon 5 icon.

It even scans!

and hurray for They Might Be Giants!

Blame ericmvan. In elementary school, I used to carpool in the mornings with a girl whose mother clearly loved They Might Be Giants, because she played the same tape of theirs—Flood (1990)—over and over with the result that I learned almost the whole album by heart and therefore didn't ever listen to it on my own time. Then last Monday I was introduced to the music videos for "They'll Need A Crane," "Don't Let's Start," "Anna Ng," "Istanbul," and "Birdhouse In Your Soul," and now they are stuck in my head . . .

I loved "Don't Let's Start" :-) You've heard their song "Experimental Film"? If not, you should! I think you'd love it.

My Shakespeare quotation is too lewd to post in the giant font that it gets put up in if you blog it; it said, "Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow asakiyume Like a Colossus!" (!!)

I have not! I will look into it directly.

"Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow asakiyume Like a Colossus!" (!!)

Yeah, I see what you were saying. I can only imagine how dirty that would sound if I got it....

Pretty dirty. It amuses as it alarms.
