Where is My One That Got Away (Katy Perry Vs. The Pixies)
Ramsey Ess
RamseyEss.com

When you realize that “Where is My Mind” by The Pixies and “The One that Got Away” by Katy Perry have the exact same chord progression, one is left with only one option.

Vocals by Katy Perry, Guitars by me, Instrumentation written by The Pixies

More dumb Katy Perry Frankensteining by me available here.

Wasted Words: Show 129

This week I appeared as a guest on one of my favorite podcasts, “Wasted Words.” I asked the panelists what their ideal restaurant would look like immediately after explaining that I don’t care that much about food.

Check it out, but only if you like to enjoy fun things!

Introducing Kitchen Archive: Old recipes, new generation

mocahill:

Kitchen Archive is my new food blog devoted to old family recipes and recipes from my growing collection of community cookbooks. I promise lots of baked goods, recipes written in poetic verse, and some finds from my grandmothers’ recipe clippings (e.g. 1960s diet guides and retro food packaging).

My wife is an excellent writer and an excellent cook. If either of these attributes interest you, might I suggest her new blog?

Zoom For the title of my newest article on Splitsider about a show featuring a young Jason Bateman, I reused a really stupid joke that I originally wrote for my site in 2008. “It’s Your Move” may have been a good show when it started, but unfortunately by the time I they got to their final episode, anything good had been drained from it.

Zoom mocahill: Day 75: Girl Scout Cookie avalanche on Flickr. Communication is always important in a marriage, but it’s especially important during Girl Scout Cookie season. Our house was like “The Gift of the Magi” if Dela and her husband both bought each other Girl Scout cookies.
