HEY YA

Once more, that great bastion of freedom, the weekend, is upon us. Or at least for me it is, what with me not having school on Fridays and all. This is going to turn into a busy quarter in a few weeks, but for now, all is quiet.

I finished “Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis” last night. Considering that I had school and work mixed in there, I finished it in only four days. That’s pretty good for me. My “Indy Quotient” (IQ, get it?) was 583. I’m not sure if that’s very high, since there wasn’t any scale to compare it to, but I like to think I rocked the hell outta the game.

I was listening to the radio today — which is a somewhat rare occurrence — and this interesting song came on that I haven’t heard before. It was real catchy and sort of a blend of rock, pop, and a wee bit hip-hop (Hmm…that last sentence was sort of Dr. Seussian. Odd.). I didn’t hear what band it was, but I caught the name of the song, which was “Hey Ya.” Since the song was on Z 93, which is Dayton’s popular music station, I assumed the band would probably be on MTV. So I went to MTV.com and searched for “Hey Ya” and was extremely surprised to see that Outkast performs it, and I *also* discovered that they perform one of my most hated songs ever, that being “Ms. Jackson.” After learning this, I became slightly worried that the paradoxical quandary of liking one song while utterly despising another by the same artist would overload my brain, and I would then promptly combust. Fortunately, it didn’t.

Okay, time to watch “The Daily Show” then work on the “Destiny” comic.

    Actually don’t worry, it’s not exactly an Outkast song. The two guys in the group each made an album and then sold them together as a double Outkast album of sorts. So technically you do not like an Outcast song, just a song by one of the band members. Thus clearing up your paradox.

    Oh. Okay, that makes me feel a little better. Thanks Sarah!

    so in fate of atlantis, did you end up doing the fists quests, the brains quest, or the quest with the chick?

    oh, and change your sound link again! “Eat shit and die modern rock and roll”… you own so many modern rock cds that your statement is more contradictory than the president at, well, something he’d be contradictory to. pretty much anything, really. but nonetheless, you make no sense and i do not like elvis.
