Ask Darron, July 2005

What's a hollaback girl?

A Holla Back Girl is a girl that returns a call or page at 2:30 in the morning for sex with a gentleman caller. In some parts of the world, she may be called a "Booty Call" girl.

---> Gwen Stefani, Love. Angel. Music. Baby. <---

What is Shakira's song "La Tortura" about?

With my limited spanish, and observations of the music video, I'd say that "La Tortura" is about people that lust after each other and know it, but can't act on it because they are in relationships with someone else. It can be torture (I feel like Peggy Hill trying to educate in spanish. She doesn't know what she's talking about half the time!)

---> Shakira, Fijacion Oral Volumen 1 <---

Why do I love track 3 on the Mariah album so much?

Track three on Mariah's album. "Shake It Off". This is going to be Mariah's next single that's released. I would say that you enjoy listening to it due to its relaxed melodies and beats. It's like a lullaby you can dance to.

---> Mariah Carey, The Emancipation of Mimi <---

And that's it for this month's edition of Ask Darron... Tune in next month, faithful readers...

Arrested Development - Season One

2005-05-23T04:20:00.000-07:00

[Tobias looks at a gift basket Michael recieved]

Michael Bluth: Didn't you get one of those, too? You bought Lindsay at the same auction...

Tobias Fünke: Yes, but I'm afraid I prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run. And now I think I have something of a mess on my hands...

Michael Bluth: Wow, there's just so many poorly chosen words in that sentence.

Scrubs - The Complete First Season

2005-05-22T04:20:00.000-07:00

[to J.D., after he asks for help]

Dr. Cox: Listen Vanessa Janice Tiffany Amber (in a sing-song voice) Thiessen. I'm gonna go ahead and give ya a little something I call Perry's Perspective.

If the guy in front of me in the coffee shop can't decide what he wants in the 30 minutes it takes for him to get to the register, I should be allowed to kill him.

I'm fairly sure that if they took all the porn off the Internet, there'd only be one website left, and it would be called Bring Back The Porn.

Third, and most important, to be respected as a doctor, nay a man, you must be an ocean. You're born alone, you damn sure die alone, (looks over and speaks to a cadaver rolling by) isn't that right spike?

My point is, and you may want to jot this down... only the weak need help.

J.D.: I should have that tattoed on my neck.

Welcome to my Catablog.

2005-05-15T05:15:00.000-07:00

This blog is an experiment for me to create my own catablog -- a list of products & services I like and recommend.

Sometimes I'll review the products & services. Sometimes I'll just quote my favorite line from the DVD or CD. Where possible, I'll link to the products & services in case you want to try them yourself.

A friend of mine tells me there's not much difference between my catablog and the "web link spam" that comes from search engine optimizers. I do not agree.

I'm not automating this process;

I am not recommending things I dislike;

and my goal is for the sum to be greater than the parts in telling the audience who I am by showcasing what I like.

I will post at most once a day, and many days not at all. Just when I feel inspired to mention another product or service I really like.

This experiment is a journey, so let's see where it takes us...
