cookie cutters, justin timberlake and cary grant

Rather astonishing pop culture cookie cutters (no, seriously), courtesy of LZ, who purchased the Picard face-palm ones to make lab-meeting cookies.

Some Jimmy Gold... the History of Rap part 4. Also a Jimmy Fallon/Justin Timberlake joint venture, a rather astonishing barbershop quartet version of SexyBack. (Regarding barbershop quartet origins.. " In the last half of the 19th century, U.S. barbershops often served as community centers – a place where most men would gather. Barbershop quartets originated with African American men socializing in barbershops; they would harmonize while waiting their turn, vocalizing in spirituals, folk songs and popular songs. This generated a new style, consisting of unaccompanied, four-part, close-harmony singing.  ".) Since we're on the subject of Mr. Timberlake, he's got a new album out, the first in 6 years, and as such has been making the media rounds to promote it. Apparently, Tom Ford has designed his new wardrobe, and such has garnered much hype, including several comparisons to Cary Grant. Cray Grant's own style was a self-invention, rather interestingly. Also, something i did not know was that there were rumors of a romantic relationship with longtime roommate Randolph Scott, another actor know particularly for westerns. All of the women present in both Grant's and Scott's lives denied these rumors, and clipped from Scott's wiki article, "According to biographer Robert Nott, "They lived together on and off for about ten years, because they were friends and wanted to save on living expenses (they were both considered to be notorious tightwads)."".

Courtesy of my labbie Ryan, this what-should-we-call-grad-school that's a little applicable...
