Many days I just want to post a bunch of stuff that makes me laugh or means something special to me. Today is one of those days. Here is the Wednesday Mishmash.

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Oh man I love Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, a cover band out of San Francisco. They do punk versions of songs ranging from Barbara Streisand to The Beatles. They are seriously an awesome band. If you ever watched Taxicab Confessions on HBO, the series theme music was “Over the Rainbow” by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes.

Here is their brilliant cover of the Boyz 2 Men song “End of the Road.”

And if you want to compare versions, here’s the Boyz 2 Men sappy original.

Get their new CD “Are We Not Men? We Are Diva” here. You won’t regret it.

Depression and loss

Woody Allen

This dialogue from Woody Allen always makes me laugh.

Allen: What are you doing Saturday night?
Woman: Committing suicide.
Allen: What about Friday night?
