Sympathetic Weather

Excruciating minutiae.

That's about right, part 2

From the "Listening Party Forum" on cleveland.com, the online home of The Plain Dealer (and, for the record, I have no idea why I am reading forums on cleveland.com):

Anyone out there know why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame website has been flagged by Google and StopBadware.org as a site that can harm your computer?

And the most excellent response:

well several reasons
there may be a bug/virus,.. not sure..
but i know another reason
rock and roll is bad for society and listened to bad citizens


(Also for the record, this anti-rock response was written by a different user than the one in the post below.)

Meanwhile, I would like to draw your attention to the outstanding new Domino's television ad that's being aired here in the Cleveland area. It features two red flying v-shaped electric guitars swooping in over a pepperoni-laden pizza, and the details of the special are displayed on screen in an awesome font not unlike
this one. Apparently this deal is so great that it "breaks all the rules," and when those words appear on screen the heavy metal singer who's been wailing in the background articulates the following brilliant lyric about this phenomenal pizza opportunity: "It mocks your silly rules!" Best. Ad. Ever.

Tenacious D is right: you can't kill The Metal.
