But If There’s a Glitch, You’re An Ostrich

The big single from Mew is showing up everywhere I turn these days (XM, Youtube, the signals that The Government shoots into my brain while I sleep, basic cable). It’s a fun little song that is almost guaranteed to stick in your head, and the video looks kinda like a kinder, gentler version of […]

Fair, Weatherfriends*

The Fair was amazing. I only had my phone, but I got a few quality shots off with it. Bust ass over to Flickr to see them all. Hopefully Cesar got a few more that he’ll upload when he gets a chance. I saw a pig race. I ate a […]

Darlin’ I Don’t Know Why I Go To Extremes

Today I get to bounce from one edge of society to another.
I’m looking extra-sharp this morning, because we’re heading down to HQ for lunch and a bigass meeting. It will be an afternoon chock full of Powerpoint and trying to extract entertainment from my phone however I can. Can you feel the fun […]

Wireless-less

It seems that the wireless router at home got popped by some lightning over the weekend on Sunday night, so I’ve had no connection at home since that time. Gmail works well enough on the phone, and I can use AIM if I’m really hard-up, but that’s about it.
Adding to the fun, the modem […]

Respect The ‘Fro

Thank you, Luda, for reminding me that in your world, “Mirror” DOES rhyme with “She-Ra”.

Thai Coup Haiku

The Army is boss
Martial is the Law, they say
Thailand, you are screwed.
(Idea by T.Day / bad poetry by G.Whitten)

noPod

I have not jumped on the iPod bandwagon, but I must admit, the idea of being able to summon up Led Zeppelin’s “In The Evening” or Isaac Hayes’ Truck Turner theme at any time is pretty appealing. The thing is, there aren’t many times that I’m without music. My car is a wonderland […]

23rd And Jackson

This post brought to you by a late-night discussion of Sir Mix-a-Lot, and whether or not he is from Seattle. Which he totally is.
I present to you, with no delay, the greatest use of the Internet I can think of:
[ MS Live Virtual Earth Used To Map Sir Mix-a-Lot’s course throughout the events of […]

This Will Not Stand, Man!

Well, damnit. My copy of Fair Warning is pretty scratchy, it seems. I’ve had skips on three different tracks, and it just stopped altogether during “Push Comes To Shove”. Granted, if there’s a song to skip on this album, that’s probably the one, but STILL. Lame.
Maybe I’ll Lala that joint to […]




The Grayscale?

This is a sporadic blog by Gray Whitten. Used to call it The Grayscale when it lived elsewhere, but now I'm going with the domain name and just saying YARG! (dot org). Feel free to sign up via RSS or LJ, or just, you know, visit on a regular basis. Thanks!
