Just caught a few minutes of "Making the Video" on MTV, featuring
Eminem, hero to dim adolescent white boys everywhere.  While the Real
Slim Maybe explains his Moby dis, an interesting juxtaposition of
ideologies occurs . . . the segment uses Carl Craig's "At Les" as
filler music between clips.  We go straight from C2's masterpiece to
watching M2 lipsync "don't nobody listen to techno" while pretending
to play a keyboard and do yoga.

It struck me as a really odd choice of fill music, considering the
show's usual diet of high-energy fromage.  Coincidence?  Intentional
dig?  Intentional placement by a closeted 313 fan?  One wonders . . .

Hope Carl got paid anyway.

Apologies if someone already noticed this . . . I don't recall seeing
it mentioned, but then I was on vacation for a bit.

As an aside, I finished the illustration of the robot girl I was
working on a while back: http://www.bprince.com/GallyFinal.jpg
