One Word
I'm probably going to catch 23 different kinds of hell for saying this, but Kelly Osbourne's new album, "Sleeping in the Nothing," is actually pretty good. I was really bothered by the way she totally butchered "Papa Don't Preach" a few years back, but she's obviously taken some time off to listen to some New Order, Depeche Mode, and other 80s alt-rock-synth-new-wave-y bands. The result? A shiny, little, dance-pop record that's a little dark, a little fun, and not too pretentious. True, she can't really sing all that well, but she covers it up with easy, mid-range melodies and high production value. It may be somewhat of a guilty pleasure, but my iPod is full of them, so feel free to ridicule me. You won't be the first, nor the last.

Well, I don't really have any kind of fascination with the Osbournes. In fact, I've only seen their reality television show once. However, it would be interesting to spend a summer living with them.
As for my profile picture, it's about the only picture I have of myself where I think I look sexy, and you're right. I'm not mean, nor a hard ass, nor a smoker, and not even the slightest bit sexy, so I guess it's a little misleading. I've always been on the lookout for a better picture that portrays the true Currt-Dawg, but since I'm the most unphotogenic person on the planet, it's not likely to show up anytime soon. Maybe I should do a self portrait and post that one instead. Or just post a picture of Brad Pitt. You'd be amazed at the number of people who say I resemble him.
I vote for the Mickey Mouse ears to be on your profile...
