Welcome to our new morning feature where we rip off “the best” of the internet and present it to you as a precious gift-post, topped with a bow we bought pre-tied from CVS and attached with an adhesive strip, ready to go and be consumed with your first coffee/tea/quickie of the day. Voila! Morning magic! On rotation.
(i woke up extra early to whip this one out so…)
- As the summer and the youth invasion on the District approaches, DCist decides to do “the noble” (yet vaguely snarky) thing and run a post on how NOT to be THAT intern. Some of it is (kinda) solid advice, but if you’re a future intern, and (already) reading BYT upon your arrival, you’ve probably made all the right mistakes by now.
- In the meantime, in New York, say hello to London through the giant Telectroscope located at the Fulton Ferry Landing by the Brooklyn Bridge. Better than a webcam. Maybe. Via Coolhunter which I can only check once a month because it reminds me that I don’t live that life.
- Flavor tripping parties! In Arlington! Fruit finally has its day.Even if that day seemed to have happened a year a go already.
- Tired of cruising fleshbot during lunch time? Read at Work .COVERTLY.
- Woxy busted out their new “500 Modern Songs on The Planet” list over the weekend.Even if you pretend not to care, you will look. Radio Free Press Europe @ 5? And Nirvana @ 8? See? YOU LOOKED!
- #1 article on Digg yesterday: SOLVE ACNE PROBLEMS THROUGH PSYCHEDELIC DRUGS AND BIRD FACIALS. And then some
(Maybe save this one for AFTER breakfast)
- National Security is even less smart than you tought
- The Best Page In The Universe Am I right or what?
and finally, and most importantly:
- Clive Owen. Shirtless. In Italy. Which brings on the burning question: Has anyone figured out how a human can teleport yet?
A flavor tripping party in Arlington? Invite? Linkx0r?

May 29, 2008 at 2:32 pmOK, why did I mindlessly count through the Modern Rock 500 to see how many of those songs I have on my computer? Any why did it total somewhere in the vicinity of 350? I would have faired better were it not for the dozen or more Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth and Nirvana songs that I don’t have. Need. More. 90s Rock. Good to know that I’m apparently perfectly qualified to entertain my own Memorial Day crowd however.

looks very Mozesque there
wait a minute, isn’t Moz living in Italy now?

Clive is totally breaking wind into that brown pipe.
