For my 4,000 post, I hope you all will indulge me while I tell a little story from my childhood.
When I was at Michigan I was president of a student organization that brought James Earl Jones in as a guest speaker. So as president, my job was to pick up James Earl Jones from the airport, grab lunch with him, and drive him back to Ann Arbor to speak. So I pick up James Earl Jones, which had I been thinking would have been an amazing opportunity to stand in baggage claim with a little sign that said "Mr. Jones," which would have been amazing but was totally unnecessary because he is a very large, intimidating man, and sorta easy to pick out in a crowd.
Anyway, James Earl Jones and I are doing the 30 minute drive back to Ann Arbor in my Ford Focus and ask him if there's any place in particular he'd like to get lunch in Ann Arbor. mind you, James Earl Jones went to Michigan, so I figured he'd want to go to Angelo's or Zingerman's or something, and since the club was paying I was particularly hoping he'd pick someplace expensive. Nay. James Earl Jones wants to eat at Denny's.
So we stop at a random Denny's off the interstate and there I am, sitting across from Darth Vader at a very small table. We're not exactly having scintillating conversation, we're both just kinda looking at the menu. Then, breaking the silence, in his best Field of Dreams voice, James Earl Jones out of nowhere goes "Moons Over My Hammy. HeHeHe."
He got an order of those and a side of pancakes.
Jesus Christ dude didn't you just have a post about making it to 2,000 posts like a month ago?

Has anyone ever known a song title or album title or band name that flew completely over your head, and for years you thought it meant one thing but it was actually a double entendre?
This just happened to me and hit me like an epiphany or a slap up side the head. There is a Snakefinger album called "Chewing Hides the Sound". I thought the title just meant the sound of people getting their hides chewed out. SO here I am eating a bowl of granola cereal while listening to a new bootleg I grabbed and I couldn't hear shiz! Then it hit me Chewing Hides the Sound!!! The missing comma finally explained. It was intentional.

Just bought this for me and my wife. I mostly bought it for my wife for valentines day, but figured I'd get one for myself as well. Anyone have any experience with them? Or heard anything?
Next week is going to be insane for me. Monday I have Jim James in a tiny venue, Tuesday is the lineup drop, and then Saturday I see Desaparacidos. Can't f*cking wait.

Has anybody ever done an online photography course? There's a Groupon for a regularly $450 class for $39 and one for a regularly $97 class for $29 today. They both seem like pretty good deals, so I was thinking about getting one of them, but I'm wondering if it would be worth it.

Let me know how the Desparecidos show goes, MC. I'm guessing life-changing shizt.

Bobs Burgers is making it way up my list of TV shows. The fact they are gonna start doing a series of web-shorts featuring some of my favorites? Even better.
The fact they got Stephen Merrit is absolutely amazing.

Everything H. Jon Benjamin has touched has been gold. Home Movies is probably the greatest "adult cartoon" ever. Archer and Bob's Burgers are both probably the funniest animated shows on now, much better than Family Guy and South Park. I never really got into H Jon Benjamin has a van or whatever, but I'm sure it's good as well.

Please tell me you've seen Lucy, Daughter of the Devil.
