This is my week of destiny, if shit doesn’t go well then I’m really gonna be pissed. But I don’t wanna take it out on you so here’s some quick links to tide you over until after the trial of wills. Rock and roll, brothers, I’ll see you on Thursday and maybe then I’ll be a real boy.

-Never do work again. 12 oz. Mouse is gonna be so great.

-I agree with pretty much every word, except I think the guy underestimates Pierce Brosnan’s GoldenEye performance, which held up quite nicely. Can you think of a movie franchise where you really want more movies to be made, if they actually let someone halfway decent take-over? I really don’t want anymore Star Wars movies.

-On Mondays, the NYT Art section has turned into a where-are-they-now of the annoyingly overplayed. Next week the guy from Candlebox shows off actual candleboxes he’s now selling out of his van.

-THE EYEBROWS RETURN!* BILL BERRY SAT IN FOR A ONE-OFF OF GIG IN A BOWLING ALLEY! REM makes middling albums now, but they’re still so effing good live.

* After consulting with the editors of Rolling Stone, I regret to say the above post should have read Eyebrow, since Bill only really has one. Jann says he’s sorry too for being a nut.
