It's her revenge against Cokie Mason for always trying to steal Logan and making fun of Mary Anne!

OMG! I love Elliot Smith. I think the movie Good Will Hunting introduced me to him. My husband loves him as well. When we were dating he actually went to see him live. I had exams and couldn't go. Now I'll never be able to see him live.

Agreed -- nothing can replace the albums themselves. Dude couldn't write a bad song. (There's only one that I don't like: "Punch and Judy" from Either/Or, for some reason.) Admittedly, KRS does call the collection "an introduction" and not, like, "The Ultimate Elliott Smith Collection."

Isn't "Everything Means Nothing to Me" so great? And I totally envy the people who got to see him play when he was just kind of doing shows around town. I went to see him twice, but that wasn't until the later years of his career.

Their greatest hits is kind of weak. I like yours better.

And A+ for including "Everything Means Nothing To Me", one of his most beautiful (and Beatles-esque) songs!

(I lived in Olympia when Elliott was around and playing shows a lot but I was just a tad too young, OF COURSE. By the time I had discovered him and was sort of obsessed, he had moved to either Portland or LA. Le sigh)

I adore Elliott Smith, but I would choose the albums over a compilation. Any day.

Sadako, I sort of guessed from your tweets that you were in library school! Super exciting. What kind of library do you want to end up working in? Does your school have the option for a school library or youth services specialty?

2010-10-14T00:08:39.039-04:00

Congrats! That's very cool. I just started my first semester of getting my masters in library science.

Unicorns vs. zombies, eh? Tough choices. I think if I had to choose I would be all about the unicorns, too.

I ordered it :) I'm actually very excited about this!

I like the cover too - especially the books :)

Thanks! I'm working in a school library -- all age levels, K-12! So far I really like it.

Congrats on the job and fiance!!!!! How exciting! What kind of library are you working at??

That book sounds good. i like unicorns.

2010-08-11T10:13:05.083-04:00

Dude, yeah, it's weird. There's a rival ramen chef and a Ramen Master who comes to judge their cooking. Um, I have no idea if that's true to real life in Japan. The best part of the movie is Brittany Murphy's hot Japanese boyfriend.

I've never seen this but based on your images ...

2010-08-09T10:51:51.324-04:00

I've never seen this but based on your images and the wiki entry, it's bizarrely hilarious. Does ramen hold a cultural significance in Japan that it doesn't in the U.S.?

I have the Pretty Little Liars pilot downloaded on my itunes, so I'm not sure why I'm being so judgy of abc family. =)

Perhaps I'm just a sucker for tv adaptations of ya books?

2010-07-23T10:54:14.142-04:00

Well, I have to confess to being a regular viewer of Secret Life of the American Teenager, too! (And I started watching Pretty Little Liars, but I missed one episode and never caught up.)

Yay, I'm so glad you like the show too. It'...

2010-07-22T22:18:16.609-04:00

Yay, I'm so glad you like the show too. It's rare that I find something on ABC Family that I actually want to sit down and commit too, but Huge is just really really good.

I also appreciate your book review, because I saw it at B&N the other day and thought about picking it up, solely because of the show.

Ooh very nice! Love a good autograph story.

2010-06-23T15:51:25.231-04:00

I really appreciate hearing your opinion of this. Based on most of the reviews of the book, and the hype leading up to it, I was prepared to let it fade from my radar.

I think you've convinced me to check it out from the library. =)
