Much like the nightlife mentality that any place without a line isn’t worth getting into, Pinterest is making me wait; hoping it will wet my appetite for, and raise the profile of, the desired destination. In other words, Pinterest is the new cool club.

Not sure if I find this brilliant or really annoying. I think the answer is both. They have now piqued my interest, and as long as they approve me before I lose said interest, I’ll be hooked. In this way, Pinterest has done something quite engaging and intelligent.

Mind you, if it takes too long, or they make me jump through too many hoops, I may just go back to posting my pictures on Twitter and call it a day.

Great house and a great guy, so check out Fish Out of Water – Coolest Thing in the House:

I don’t watch any talk shows on a regular basis, save Colbert, but Kimmel’s short movies have transcended television and make for perfect web watching. Much like SNL’s digital shorts, these videos have garnered circulation and viewership on the web in a way that never would have been possible in a strict-tv format. Kimmel has done some pretty great stuff in this area. Remember “I’m f***ing Matt Damon”?

This jem was released to coincide with the Academy Awards, and features about as much as star power as the Oscars themselves.

Maybe because they keep burrowing into each others fur, the wrestling always ends with a good shake and a sneeze. Cracks me up every time.

I’m reminded of a passage from Salinger’s Just Before the War with the Eskimos:

“… She reached into her coat pocket for her purse and found the sandwich half. She took it out and started to bring her arm down, to drop the sandwich into the street, but instead she put it back into her pocket. A few years before, it had taken her three days to dispose of the Easter chick she had found dead on the sawdust in the bottom of her wastebasket.”

Move on. Let go. Easy to say, not so easy to execute.

But if you can do it, I mean really, really do it, then there’s freedom in letting go. I’m not saying you should forget; embrace what you’ve done. Learn from your past. And then move on.

I, for one, am going to make a concerted effort not to hold on to dead chicks.
