Burning Man... literally.

This post truly captures the randomness of my mind. I was listening to Third Eye Blind's Burning Man the other day and I started to think about self immolation. For those who are not familiar with the term, self immolation is a ritual that is performed by someone setting themselves on fire in protest. The most famous case of self immolation occurred in Vietnam in 1963. A Buddhist monk set himself on fire in the middle of a busy street. The crowd watched in amazement as the monk allowed himself to be consumed by the fire without moving an inch. What a hell of a way to go! Just think, how devoted do you have to be to submit yourself to such torture to prove a point?

Girl Talk, I listen?

Gregg Michael Gillis should be my new best friend. Gillis, better known as Girl Talk, is an electrifying DJ that's starting to take the music world's breath away. Although he is simply mashing up verses of different songs, it's unique. I got to see him live at a concert this spring and I was both shocked and amazed. Jump on the Girl Talk express, before it becomes old news.

Burt's Bees

I have officially sold out on Lynchburg (the city where Chapstick was created) by switching over to Burt's Bees. I use to think it was ridiculous to pay $3 for a tube until I indulged... the rest is history. The stuff is $3 for a reason... even if the old guy on the box looks like the biggest creeper ever ha.
