z0mg– that’s from Mr. T’s 1984 inspirational video, Be Somebody Or Be Somebody’s Fool! Do you have any idea how hard that is to find?! I tracked down a rental copy last summer in the cult section of a local independent video place, but my VCR has since broken. Duh, youtube would have it!
Anywhore, the new spooky Neil Gaiman compilation CD came in the mail today [even though it won't get released until next Tuesday]. I don’t really have a clear idea of who Neil Gaiman is, but look who’s on the CD!

4.) Curve – Coraline
