Ladies and Gentleman I’d like you all to take a quick moment to start off your day with the catchiest song EVER written.

A decade after Joe Dante made INNER SPACE, a Norwegian woman made a movie about a boy and his grandpa’s kidney stone. What followed is a disturbing art film about bodily functions and fluids.

As you may have noticed there has been a bit of a lull in the posting here as I am actually back in Wisconsin visiting with my family and getting ready to take a road trip back to Oregon this week. So if I don’t post for the majority of the week it’s because I am…
