Doctor my Eyes?
I so stole this from Once More...And of course I had to try it out on the whole family. You upload a photo of yourself which is then subjected to "face recognition" and compared to a database of celebrity photos.
First up- me:
Christina Ricci 72%- cool but probably from the Adams Family era
Jackson Browne 72%- WHAT?
Liv Tyler 70% - Awesome!
Elisha Cuthbert 70% - no clue..?
Hillary Swank 68%- Don't know how I feel about this...
Shannen Doherty 68%-bleh
Brigitte Bardot 68%- Cool!
Cate Blanchett 66% -eh
Monica Lewinsky 66% - Oh man, that's not good.
Olivia Newton John 65%- YES! I would have killed to know this back when I was obsessed with XANADU!
To my surprise I did not get matched up with Jeanine Garafolo, PJ Harvey, or Lady Miss Kier- all of whom I have been told that I resemble...Yeah- Lady Miss Kier, "Groove is in the heart"...
Next up- Zack. Did you know he was growing his hair out? Check it out
his match-ups are hysterical!
Nicolas Cage 53% Albert Einstein 53% Colin Farrell 52%- was it the eyebrows? John Cusak 50% - I have thought this before... Harry Belafonte 49% HA HA HA HA Bruce Willis 48% Rudolph Valentino 47% Joseph McCarthy –47% HA HA HA HA Alec Baldwin 47% Uday Hussein 46% HA HA HA HA
Zack's bummed that he didn't get matched up with Kenny Loggins...
And last, but not least, Mar- the glasses really did it:
I don't know some of the folks he matched up with- so I will list the ones that I do know:
Dalai Lama 60% -
Buckminster Fuller 59% - making Daddy proud looking like Bucky
Peter Sellers 56% -
Karl Lagerfeld 55%
Audrey Tautou 53%
Yoko Ono 59%
Keep in mind, in almost all of these photos matched with Marcel folks were wearing giant glasses. And what's up with him not being matched with Elton John?

De it's taken me forever to finally get to this! Sorry for the wait.
If I could be a scientist...
If I could be a farmer…
If I could be a doctor...
If I could be a painter...
If I could be a gardener I would grow a gigantic land of yams. Yams as far as the eye could see, and I would water them until they grew as tall as rain forest trees. Then maybe we could finally get some flying squirrels around here.
If I could be a missionary...
If I could be an architect...
If I could be a linguist I would never rest until compiling and publishing the comprehensive collection of American liquor slang. It would all be there, from moonshine to Mad Dog to ta-kill-ya to Surly Times to firewater to O.E. And decisions would need to be made: which entry would go first for Natural Light, Snatch or Natty Lite? Linguists have it rough.
If I could be a psychologist...
If I could be a librarian...
If I could be an athlete and go back to the 80s I’d be the gnarliest juicer ever, shooting so much ‘roid my tongue would have triceps, and I would farm the finest mullet in all the outfield, which I would complement nicely with neon Oakley blades.
If I could be a lawyer...
If I could be an innkeeper...
If I could be a professor I would be a sadist like my old playwriting teacher, and I would also have a rule of never giving A’s to anyone, anywhere, anytime – because man it’s already so easy to get a job with a playwriting degree that who needs a salvageable GPA anyway?
If I could be a writer...
If I could be a llama rider
If I could be a bonnie pirate...
If I could be an astronaut...
If I could be a world famous blogger...
If I could be a justice on any one court in the world...
If I could be married to any current famous political figure I would wed my number one Machiavellian man, Dick Cheney. At feeding time I’d throw him whole mackerel, and he could catch them with his prehensile tail.
Now I get to tag three others to pick five of these, right? I'll tag Taylor, Once More, and Kevin.

New Blog Design
Chili Powder has endured a steady facelift this week; the dust has settled today. Until next design, our look is brought to you by those ambassadors of Eastern Bloc rock, the Angry Inch.

FattyMelt
Tastes evolve and websites come and go...but I think FattyMelt is here to stay. Exactly what was so entertaining about life before the Internet anyway? Tuesday nights of old, spent listening to The Guess Who and watching Barney Miller (filmed live!), can in no way compare with quality time spent with the guy from FattyMelt -- who is chronicling his blatantly unsuccessful attempt at developing some diesel power.

FattyMelt is my new favorite website.

Howard's Blog
Howard is posting on his blog hb cold again. He has returned to Finland. Everyone needs to read Howard's blog because it rules and so does he. I recommend starting at the beginning, late 2003. The 2003 Xmas party with the Finnish choir is the ultimate.

Neil Gaiman's New Year Sentiment
Neil Gaiman has posted his tiding for the New Year on his web journal. I think we would all do well to follow his example:
May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't to forget make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.
Thanks, Mr. Gaiman. You remain my real-time hero.
