spoon gets some cash money.

...and i couldn't be happier about it. the long-held opinion in the manicmess household is that they're the most underrated band in america. or one of them, anyway. so we were thrilled to see the new jaguar commercial featuring 'i turn my camera on'. even if it is kind of random.

then last night, the song was also featured on the bravo show 'top chef'. hooray!

in related news, douchebag of the week award goes to. . .aspiring top chef stephen!

maybe you don't watch the show. he's probably the most annoying, pretentious, uptight squirt of a guy ever to grace tv. it's worth tuning in if only to give yourself a new concept of just how much more skin-crawlingly awful the people you live/work/cope with could actually be...they could be him. i hope he never gets an actual restaurant because eating there would take all the joy out of eating and drinking. my two favorite pastimes.

anyway. what have i been doing? it's easter week, which means i'm scurrying about preparing to go home for the long weekend. i did manage to squeeze in reviews for the new albums from ll cool j and built to spill though, which is good. i should have given ll a lower grade. the album's pretty terrible.

he's def the biggest douche no longer on tv.
