Have you heard the news? Scientists have discovered an earth-like planet orbiting the nearest star to our solar system. Better call territorial dibs in the name of your future Utopian society before someone else gets there first! Continue reading

Neighbors. They can be so very interesting. The great news is that the more you move, the more stories you collect. Continue reading
I had a conversation with a few people last week about “bizarre people at work” situations. These are the best stories on earth because they are cathartic for everyone involved. We get to tell our whacko stories about lazy, strange, rude, incompetent, evil or just plain confusing. We get to read other people’s stories and discover that we are not alone – others are surrounded by the crazy. Continue reading
Hey, this is Crasstalk’s 8000th post!
Dogs hasn’t seen Frozen. Haysi hasn’t seen Raiders of the Lost Ark. I’m pretty sure I haven’t seen any of the Toy Story films except the original, nor Godfather III. I’ve definitely not seen Robot Punch Monster, but at least I’m not alone there. What are some of the cinematic hits or cultural touchstones that “everyone” has seen except you? Continue reading

2013 really just feels like it was yesterday. So much so that the songs at the end of the year Billboard Top 100 are some of my go-to songs for the jukebox when I go to the bar.
JT put out his sorta double album that year, Drake had 4 singles in the Top 50 and “What the Fox Say?” inspired SNL bits and Halloween costumes that year. Continue reading
After looking at the end of the year Billboard list from 2012, I decided, there wasn’t very much I liked in 2010 and 2011 (though, in 2010 I literally listened to Jamie Lidell’s Compass for an entire year). The top 3 songs at the end of the year were Goyte’s “Someone That I Used to Know” Carly Rae Jepson’s “Call Me Maybe” and “We are Young” by fun. Katy Perry and Adele both have several songs on that list. Continue reading
It’s hard to believe this site has been around for 5 years. I was not around at the VERY beginning, but it’s felt like home since I got here. What I’m going to do this week is take everyone down musical memory lane. Continue reading
