hey, i know that monkey! his name is donkey!

[livejournal.com profile] cimarosa linked to this, which apart from the OC special is about the best thing I've seen all day. And it ties in neatly to a live version of "One" that I downloaded on Ares where Bono, I swear to God, goes on a fifteen-minute squee on how much he loves Bill Clinton. And we all know that I would happily follow the Bono off a cliff, because I mean good lord I not only bought the Pop album, I enjoyed that business.

Also of amusement value is Snape and Malfoy: The Comic because I love when people's adoration of their fandoms takes the shape of a good affectionately mocking poke at said fandom. Which reminds me, I was watching Family Guy earlier and it was that one where Peter finds out he's got a black ancestor? And Stewie's trying to infiltrate the high school cheerleaders and makes a note-to-self that he has yet to find out what their secret to "mind control" power is or to make head or tails of their "obsession with the homosexual members of *nsync." No, wait, what was my point? Oh, well, whatever.

Er, this may or may not be one of the lj-patented inebriation posts. Which is to say, I ain't drunk, but I'm not unhappy either. *g*

I remember listening to Rockline, a radio interview show, one night during the Bush vs. Clinton campaigns. U2 was on, and Clinton called in from the Little Rock airport (I lived in Arkansas at the time). They were so impressed when he actually had a favorite U2 album to name. It was cute.

Hee! That's an awesome story. I really didn't know that Bono was such a huge Clinton fan until I heard him rambling lovingly before the song. *g*

You're the only other person I know who bought it and enjoyed it too. And yes, I, too, could possibly be persuaded to follow Bono off a cliff.

The first time I listened to Pop I was all, "wtf?" but then it *grew* on me and now I love it. We probably like the album more than, say, *Larry* does, yo. Heh!

What is Larry thinking?

*snerk*

It grew on me too. I don't know if it was the mood I was in at the time, but there are songs on there that I really, really liked and really fit the mood of the fanfic I was writing. I think that's why I like it so much. It reminds me of happy times and fun.

I don't know how I feel about the new song yet. I heard it yesterday. Eh...I guess I should give it a few more tries before I pan it. ;-)

Hee! I knew you'd like it too. Because we definitely seem to have the same overwhelming love for U2, yo.

Why don't they have stickers? I want a St Clinton sticker! *pouts*

I wonder if the Monkey has seen this.

The Monkey needs to see it! It might cheer her up, poor boo.

We should all have St. Clinton stickers! To put in our hymnals, or wear on our boobs. Either would be good. *g*
