Yes, Arcade Fire is Doing Music for Richard Kelly’s The Box. ALSO OMG KITTY
The Box is gonna be a big film for Richard Kelly: After making everyone fall in love with him thanks to Donnie Darko, Kelly’s next movie was Southland Tales, which was originally titled—and this is totally true—Hey, Fuck You, Audience: Try to Make Sense Outta This, Suckaz! (I really liked HFYA:TTMSOTS!, and only partially because […]

Wanna get a cheap facial? (Commence “I can give you a free one, heh heh heh” jokes.) The Paul Mitchell School (234 SW Broadway) is having some sort of awesome sale.

My Inaugural Cat Friday Post!
So exciting! In honor of Caturday or whatever and Matt’s post about the Eugene Mr. Furry Fluffy McFluffikins Show, here are some really gorgeous photos from last year’s cat show at the Portland Expo by Photographer Savant Dave Ewald. Enjoy these. Magnificent and stupid all at the same time
