Mom used to listen to this every year at Christmas. I heard it the other night at a holiday mixer so, naturally, had to go look it up on YouTube.

Enjoy a bit of Bawwwwwbra for your Howwwwwlidaze, mkay?

I admit it. I’m a huge fan of “So You Think You Can Dance.” I love watching the dancers, envying their talent, and investing in the competition from the outside. (Okay, they’re all pretty hot too.)

Earlier this week I watched one of my favorites (Jakob) dance with my least favorite (Mollee). Jakob is stunning in his dancing. Mollee is, honestly, just flat out annoying. It’s really no fault of her own – it’s mostly her age – but still, not a huge fan of hers.

Anyways, despite all of that, I was pretty moved by a number they did. It was to Vanessa Carlton’s song “Ordinary Day.” The song was released in 2002 but, suddenly, it’s #90 on the iTunes 100 (and moving up). It’s kind of fascinating, the power of television, considering the song is so old… but I guess I wasn’t the only one who went out and bought it after the episode!

Their dance starts at 1:45.

Call me crazy (or maybe it’s because I just got home at 2:40 in the morning) but this picture looked totally weird to me upon first glance. Probably delirium, I know…

I was just sent this. It’s Senator Diane Savino speaking on the floor of the New York State legislature in regards to the gay marriage vote they just voted on (it didn’t pass). She makes a great argument and I thought you should see it.

Tonight is political party hopping ‘nite! Not in terms of Democrat to Republican (would never happen) but in terms of all candidates left in the various Atlanta run-off elections. That includes the mayor’s race, City Council President, and Post 2 At-Large.

I shall post pics and report from the field as we go. Follow me on Twitter at kyleteevee for the juicy details (and the free food and wine).

Pecha Kucha 14 is happening in Atlanta this Sunday. What is Pecha Kucha? Well…

a presentation format in which content can be easily, efficiently and informally shown, usually at a public event designed for that purpose. Under the format, a presenter shows 20 images for 20 seconds apiece, for a total time of 6 minutes, 40 seconds.

It was devised in 2003 by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Tokyo’s Klein-Dytham Architecture (KDa), who sought to give young designers a venue to meet, network, and show their work and to attract people to their experimental event space in Roppongi.^[1] They devised a format that kept presentations very concise in order to encourage audience attention and increase the number of presenters within the course of one night. They took the name Pecha Kucha from a Japanese term for the sound of conversation (“chit-chat”).

Klein and Dytham’s event, called Pecha Kucha Night, has spread virally around the world. More than 170 cities now host such events.

I went to number 13 last month and it was truly great. This time around, I’ll be one of the speakers. The title of my slide presentation is “48 Hours.” Vague? Well, yes. It’s supposed to be. Come see what it’s all about.

Pecha Kucha happens at 7pm at Octane on the west side. Get there early! It gets packed!
