I’ve been semi-depressed since the election, for obvious reasons. A showing of Shaun of the Dead* and getting into the final stress test for World of Warcraft have both helped, but what helped most were these words from Mitch Hedberg:

“Every McDonald’s ad ends the same way: ‘Prices and participation may vary.’ I want to open a McDonald’s and not participate in *shit.* I want to be a stubborn McDonald’s owner. It’d be like, ‘Cheeseburgers? Nope. We got spaghetti…and blankets.'”

For a moment there, I was thinking since my brain is a warehouse of tiny comic bits like that (I’ve been called Xerox on occasion), that maybe I should turn this blog into a pile of those things and get them out of my head. I’m waffling on it now. How much different would it be than a music blog? Not much, sez I.

* – FYI, Shaun of the Dead is hilarious, but it is an actual zombie movie, with gore and dramatic deaths.
