Title: TL/Tommy Tornado collaboration

“The “Colleen” video was written and produced by Tom Scharpling, who co-produces and writes for the TV show “Monk” as well as hosts the legendary The Best Show on WFMU; a weekly radio show dedicated to comedy, music and talk. Directing credits go to Mike Bellino who did a fantastic job with Scharpling’s compelling and dramatic script. The story follows Ted Leo as he hustles money through illicit arm-wrestling matches in a seedy motel. Will Ted Leo be victorious or will he run into danger challenging the wrong opponent?!”

Sounds promising. Can't wait for the video to hit a website near me in the next week or so.

INSPIRATIONAL. I'm going to go watch the Netflixes that have been sitting on my coffee table for three months.

I wish I knew someone in Lubec who was going to Portland on 12/2.

SPOILER (highlight to read:  I don't know if that was a Miata, but I sure hope Teddy took the money out of it before that dame drove off.

Toyota Prius, methinks.

Consumer Reports states that the 2006 model has a dedicated granola nook and gets up to 45mpg when filled with the blood of the Bourgeoisie.

It's a lovely video.  A glimpse into the depths TL must plumb in order to finance his music career. Who knew? 

And, yes, I felt pretty clever using beige this way.
