is just 2 minutes long. I am not kidding. Listen to this episode of "This American Life" and skip to 25:30 . I am still laughing out loud by myself. Just brilliant!

"Preparing boys for girls"

I finally grabbed a copy of the series "Freaks and Geeks" and have been recently savouring each episode. For those less familiar with the greatest show on the face of the Earth, "Freaks and Geeks" reveals a deep analysis of high-school adolescence hidden under the covers of another cheesy teenage show. Don't be fooled by the apparent geekiness of the movie, but pay attention to the outstanding acting (especially Neil and Bill), excellent character building and unexpectedly good film-making.

I really didn't want to talk about my questionable past-time activities on here, but today I heard on NPR a very thoughtful commentary by Gwen Macsai that relates in a odd way to the subject of "Freaks and Geeks". In "Preparing boys for girls" the commentator looks at the abysmal differences between her childern: on one side stand her two boys who have only four emotional states: happy, sad, mad, and hungry and on the other is her daughter who displays a wide range of complex drama-queen like emotions. How can a mother teach her simple four-state males about the hyper-emotional females that await them? The straight answer is: she can't, but it's still fun to listen to her blurb.
