(That's like 50,000 lame points for me)Anyway, I guess since I took a lot of Latin classes throughout my youth (and since I've retained like 30% of it...) I thought I would try to listen to the song, write down http://ericas-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/03/spring-awakening.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Erica)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922105554488335409.post-2560579285795691516Tue, 17 Mar 2009 19:28:00 +00002009-03-17T15:36:24.739-04:00SNL Rocket Dog skit with Tracy Morgan and K-Wig. http://ericas-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/03/life-is-highway.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Erica)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922105554488335409.post-1469593121550193736Fri, 23 Jan 2009 15:58:00 +00002009-01-23T11:06:29.384-05:00I saw these guys on SNL and was impressed.

(I have crazy dreams all the time)...........The scene starts with me and John in our 'apartment.' Except it's not really our apartment, it's a different one. It looks slightly different, like the bizzaro world version. John's hanging out in the living room and I'm looking out the patio window.To my amazement, I briefly see a hot pink car, http://ericas-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/01/estebans-imaginary-visit.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Erica)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922105554488335409.post-4876234422871078812Thu, 08 Jan 2009 20:13:00 +00002009-01-08T15:15:41.947-05:00John sent me this article, which is so absolutely true, I couldn't agree with it more.

Well, I guess it's not that new, but I just came across it, so it's new to me. Anyway, this one's pretty interesting. It's a 'real reality show' (no competitions involved, just real life encounters) that gives you many different perspectives, from the PPA (Philadelphia Parking um...Administration?) metermaid, to the clerk at the impoundmenthttp://ericas-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/01/parking-wars-on.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Erica)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922105554488335409.post-1969065749164274891Fri, 02 Jan 2009 18:48:00 +00002009-01-02T14:29:28.594-05:00Read these picks from John for actual insight: http://whatjohnceballosthinks.blogspot.com/Anyway, here we are my picks for this weekend's Wild Card Playoff Round:NFC:(Byes: NY Giants, Carolina Pantheroonies)~Atlanta Falcons (11-5) @ Arizona Cardinals(9-7) Erica's Pick: Erica's thoughts: Apparently, Arizona is terrible lately and Atlanta is peaking right now.~http://ericas-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/01/ericas-nfl-wild-card-round-picks.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Erica)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922105554488335409.post-457452784122323154Fri, 02 Jan 2009 18:25:00 +00002009-01-02T13:43:28.051-05:00Film: Yes ManStarring: Jim CarreyWhy is he a Jim and not a James? Anyway,B+/BErica's Thoughts:Funny, cute movie. Widely appealing. Feel good movie. Good balance of drama and comedy. Carrey is not too over the top in this one.

What they did here was quite remarkable. Some of these photos are just insane. It makes me think, "So while this was happening...someone somehow took an amazing photo of it?"

Their first album, which I have, was pretty good. The second one has that 'when you were young' song which is pretty good. their latest hit is actually pretty good and I really enjoy the music video.

Hilarious. It was like watching an SNL short appear on MTV as a legitimate music video.

I'm a HUGE fan. Anyway, today on her lovely show "Everyday Italian" (I also immensely LOVE all things Italian), she had this cute little recipe for "Parmesan Popovers."
