Errata
In the previous entry, I incorrectly made reference to the "100 Most Cheesarific Video Tricks in Music Video," on VH-1. The title is, in fact, "The 100 Most Cheesetastic Video Tricks...Exposed."
I regret the error.

The C
How bizarre is this weird-ass cottage industry that's arisen around recycling television, music, and film history indefinately into marathon filler that google ranks random topics into a metaware running commentary throughout popular culture? It's reached a critical mass. I've been sitting at home today, sniffly, heavy-headed and watched five hours of the 100 Most Memorable Televison Characters on Bravo, the 100 Best One-Hit Wonders on VH1 (hosted by none other than William Shatner) - and now the (get this) 100 Most Cheesarific Video Tricks in Music Video.
Hmmm...maybe they could pay me to sit and make funny remarks about things I see on television.

Friends and relations
I'm in a bit of a strange mood today.
I'm not that surprised: melancholy often walks hand-in-hand with being sick, but man, I'm feeling it today. The melancholy, though, seems secondary - more of a follow up to this indifference I often feel toward relationships and people in my life. Or perhaps it's a reaction to an oscillation between high-tensile affection and the aforementioned indifference. I think it comes down to this: Sometimes I don't trust myself enough to know how I feel about anything or anyone.
I don't want to be a need-based initiative. I'd rather think of myself as a person, and not just a collection of behaviors.
