Of COURSE it's my favorite organ!

Of COURSE it's my favorite organ!

I'm not sure how many of you are Weird Al fans and, further, how many of you have heard his new album. It's probably his best since Off the Deep End, and there's one song in particular to which I'm drawn. The song is called "Pancreas" and below is the video for it.





I know what you're thinking: of course the diabetic has a soft spot for a song about the pancreas. In response to you I say, " Stuff it, cats!" We've all loved and lost, and this is just another case of not knowing what I had until it was gone. I'll always have a fond spot in my heart for my heart's southern neighbor. Sure it's now an inert organ-y lump, but I'll always cherish the time we spent together when it still breaking down all those booze carbs in college.

I'm virtually certain I short-circuited my pancreas during those times, and that's a guilt I'll always have to live with.

Watching:
  • "MPD Psycho II"

    Reading:
  • A bunch of comics that lead up to and include DC's Infinite Crisis. Trying to get an overview of DC's history is like taking a two semester survey of world history in college. You're just trying to get a passing grade because the sheer volume of information is impossible to digest upfront.
  • JLA Vol 2: American Dreams, Grant Morrison, Howard Porter & John Dell
  • The Meme Machine, Susan Blackmore

    I do have to say that the Infinite Crisis build-up and climax has made me a ardent DC fan. Where as CIVIL WAR is taking the wind out of Marvel's sails for me (I do like the Ultimate-verse, however).

    Infinite Crisis at least told a cool action superhero story and made Batman less of a jerk. That alone was worth the price of admission.

    Oh. and they killed off those ridiculous Pantha and Wildebeast characters. Eesh.
