I watched TELEVISION. On purpose! Of course, I was selective. I wound up only watching COPS for about 2 minutes, switching over to MTV and catching the last bit of a really mean thing called Boiling Points where they try to piss people off and make fun of their righteous indignation by rewarding patience and kindness with HUNDRED DOLLAR BILLS. Wow. People will apparently watch anything! I'm far too detached and full of ironic posturing to watch TV without contextualizing everything like some weird sociological postmodernist. Then I did the right thing, and watched the Cartoon Network. God damnit, I really like The Family Guy. I was laughing and enjoying televised entertainment and consuming red meat. Well, a pizza with meat on it. I'm feeling less iron deficient and more like a good old-fashioned american consumer.
Thank god that's over, huh?
Now i'm listening to mp3s by Chris Hardwick, because
Anyhow, to continue to pimp this guy out for some reason, here's what he's said about the Rodeohead mp3:
"As of 5:09am, Saturday morning, 5/29, Hard 'n Phirm's hick-tacular medley "Rodeohead" had been downloaded somewhere about 25,000 times, and I'm not using that number in the "comedy exaggeration" sense. That rocks our balls because we put it up less than 48 hours before that. Please continue to pass it on, perhaps to a lonely friend, or perhaps to your local college, alternative or country radio station, even."and
"About a year ago, my good friend and bandmate Mike Phirman and I thought it would be entertaining to form a bluegrass Radiohead cover band called "Rodeohead." See, it's funny cause it's a play on words. For purposes of convenience and brevity, we instead put together one mammoth five-minute medley containing segments of seventeen Yorke/Greenwood gems. We did, however, stick with the bluegrass idea. I had wanted to put it on my upcoming comedy CD, "Blood Pudding," but fuck it. Here it is for free. I just want people to hear it and pass it around if they find it non-sucky. Radiohead is my favorite band and what better way to honor them than by running their music through the beer-swilling, ass-kicking hick-filter of my homeland, the American South. Take a spin over to the Hard ‘n Phirm website and ENJOY"

I'm really looking forward to the weekend, because I kind of want to spend about 17 hours in bed alternately napping, making kitty noises and spaz-snuggling with
