While I'm on the subject of wacky but loveable Minnesotans, I want to post this video of Jill and Kevin Heinz's Wedding Entrance Dance:



Most people have probably seen it already, but in case you haven't, let me say it is the happiest most joyful youtube video evah! Even if it is a wedding. In Minnesota. But even New York Magazine had a piece on Why It Might Be the Best Theater You'll See All Year.

Not a lot of people have friends and family that would do this for them, or laugh while watching it and not tsk-tsk at the silliness. There's a couple who is obviously shy but still is dancing down the aisle just like everyone else. The awesome groom does a somersault and stands up, adjusts his tie, and leads his friends down the aisle, and then the camera zooms around, the music crescendos, everyone cheers and the bride appears looking ecstatic! She twirls down the aisle to the groom who takes her arm as they try to regain their dignity and composure before standing at the altar.

These are awesome people. And Al Franken is their senator!

Actual things said by actual people in two separate interviews for a bookkeeper today:

1. "I just need a job because I'm seriously in debt right now."

2. "Most of the time I don't use my brain, I just use a calculator."

Hulu: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

I just discovered this, although it is not new. It's not a blog, it is a moving 42 minute web only musical black comedy with superheroes, starring Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible, who wants to join the Evil League of Evil, defeat his nemesis Captain Hammer and win the girl of his dreams. It's been haunting me since I watched it; I wake up with a funny feeling and can't put my finger on it, then I remember watching this.

From Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and other TV shows that many people love but I have never seen.

The Sartorialist visited Fort Greene and really captured the spirit of my beloved 'hood:

Fort Greene, Brooklyn

Dekalb Ave., Fort Greene, Brooklyn

Moving Images, NYC (everything about this says Fort Greene; the guy is probably French)

On the Street......Blue Byrne, Brooklyn (again, this must be Fort Greene)

Fulton St., Brooklyn (outside Cafe Habana)

S. Portland Street, Brooklyn (tough guy on a bicycle; the jesus t-shirt is probably not ironic)

Lafayette St., Brooklyn (I know the spot well, there's almost no room to walk because of the trees)
