Dear DC Metro System (America's Subway)

GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER! I don’t think I’ve ridden the metro once in the last 3 months where nothing was out of service, sharing tracks, or in the process of repair to serve you better. Look, I’ll pay 2.00 a pop for a train ticket as long as when I look at the schedule on my way to GW (Blue/Orange line to Vienna/Franconia), I don’t see:

Largo: 1

Vienna: 15

Largo: 16

New Carrolton: 17

Franconia: 22

I’m not really thinking about the oxford in this ad.  I’m mostly concentrating on the 90s JCPenny metallic high waisted jeans with cameltoe.  What a great thrift store find, AA!  Oh, you’re selling those?  Ohhhh

I usually refrain from posting ads here (don’t want my other corporate sponsors to get jealous), but this is too good.

Say what you will about Hamid Karzai, he sure has some fantastic hats (which I’ve learned are called “Qaraquls” [thanks wikipedia!])

Rihanna's Russian Roulette

YouTube - Rihanna - Russian Roulette (Official Music) HQ

Whoa. I had heard some people making a fuss that Rihanna’s new song encouraged suicide, and rolled my eyes, but after hearing it I’m shocked that not only would her label let her put this song on her album, but that they would greenlight it as it’s first single.  For a woman recently involved in a very public domestic abuse incident, including having photographs of her injuries broadcaset worldwide, I didn’t expect a song with lyrics like: “take the gun, and count to three.”  I mean, damn: “As my life flashes before my eyes…Its too late to think of the value of my life.”  She didn’t write this song, and ostensibly its metaphor for a relationship, where you could end up (emotionally) hurt in the end.  But for her first public statement since last February to be capped off by the sound of a gunshot is fairly intense for someone known best for shiny surfaced hip-hoppish pop.  I can’t say that even know what I think of it: as a calculated media firestorm its disgusting, but as an artistic statement its fairly ambiguous and potentially the most thought provoking song by a similar artist since Madonna’s ‘Like A Prayer.’    Is this going to get radio play?  What is the video going to look like?  Is this all we are going to get out of Rihanna, assuming she doesn’t break her silence on the Chris Brown incident?
