Recent Discoveries:

Sock monkeys make people loosen up and laugh.



If you avoid drinking Absinthe and switch to Aviations, your head will still hurt the next day.

Architecture in Helsinki have embraced a new Salt n' Pepa style 80's sound -- jury still out on this drum machine twist.

Who knew (at my age) I'd find myself obsessed with animated characters from Norway who drink beer, kids in Oakland on Scraper bikes (thanks DJ BC) and dogs wearing wigs. Mid life crisis alert?

If the Tracy Jordan character from "30 Rock" moved to Brazil and joined a band, he would sound like Carolinos Brown (who surrounds himself with dancing girls wearing sailor hats and a Spinal Tap-esque backdrop of two huge blue blow up kissing fish.) The video is subdued in comparison.
