Yo La Tengo - “From a Motel 6″
This isn’t an official video or anything. It’s just some homemade video some guy put on YouTube. But the soundtrack is Yo La Tengo’s “From a Motel 6,” a personal favorite. If you had to pick one Yo La Tengo song to respresent the band (which is basically what I’m doing here), you couldn’t go [...]

Things I shouldn’t have said #25
“There are a lot of things I don’t miss about working there, but I like a lot of the people. Not you, but a lot of the other people.”
“I do a lot of things in a disturbing kind of way. You should see how I eat a banana.”
