'before this river becomes an ocean...'

i'll confess to a tiny obsession with Kermit the Frog's song Not Easy Being Green (particularly the Andrew Bird version, okayit'strueiloveitalot) which makes this NY Times article about Flight Of The Conchords singer Bret McKenzie highly relevant.

Linked from Ryan today at lunch, this, and i think it should officially be his theme song. Guy can eat.

Finally, the science tattoos. i go back and forth about actually getting a tattoo (i'll get a brand or equivalent first), but having a devotion to your work strong enough to get it permanently etched to your person is something i do support completely. Compilations about these things are getting around. Last June, this online article popped up, and Kelly AT left me a fb link today about the actual book. Also, recently, the NY Times also had a slideshow going 'round, viewable here, featuring the same book.

Also, how do semi-embarrassing though somewhat applicable '80s songs get stuck in my head, apropos of nothing?
