I am a Los Angeles-based twentysomething. I have a profession, and I have a secret life in music, and this blog isn't about any of that. I like Blogger because I can't read what you're thinking.

MONOBLOGUE
- Speed Racer had a disappointing $20M opening weekend -- barely breaking even on John Goodman's catering fees.
- Sunday's New York Times reported the growing movement by mental illness advocacy groups known as "mad pride." Critics are calling it "pretty retarded."
- The father of a Malawian child that Madonna wants to adopt said on Monday he supported her case but asked that she bring his boy home for visits. He also requested that she never direct a film again.
- An East Carolina University biologist discovered a new species of spider and opted to name it after his favorite musician, Neil Young. Just days earlier, Paris Hilton was named after the same biologist's other discovery of new species in -- wait for it -- crabs.
- Talking to a crowd in West Virginia, Hillary Clinton quoted Eleanor Roosevelt by saying ‘‘A woman is like a tea bag; You never know strong she is until she is in hot water," which was better than Bill's version that said, "A woman is like a tea bag; you never know how strong she is until you have your balls in her mouth."
- John McCain announced that his proposed energy plan would put U.S. greenhouse gas emissions back to 2005 levels by the year 2012. Also on his agenda: living until the year 2012.
