Chris Genoa: Dear Bjork,

June 25, 2006

Dear Bjork,

Oh how I love your kookoo for Coco Puffs crazy ass. In an age of remarkably boring music videos, you are a light (a warped light, yes, but a light nonetheless) shining through the darkness.

Your thunder-darting valentine,
Chris

PS - ditto to you too, Mr. Jonze.

Here's Bjork's excellently bizarre video "Triumph of the Heart," directed by Spike Jonze. It tells the story of Bjork's rollercoaster relationship with her boyfriend...who just happens to be a wifebeater-wearing kitty cat. Be sure to watch it through to the end, which is when the cat grows to human size and dances for joy with Bjork. Somehow, the whole thing makes perfect sense to me.

Speaking of Bjork, have you seen the episode of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast where SG is married to her? I'm betting you have, since you seem to be a fan of Adult Swim programming. Comedy in its purest form..too bad I can't find it on Youtube.

I do remember that SG episode, and I'm a huge fan of Adult Swim programming. Their shows are by far the funniest stuff on TV these days, and pretty much the only DVDs I buy are ones from Adult Swim because I can watch a lot of those episodes (especially Sealab and Aqua Teen) over and over again. And they still make me laugh.

that's a rollercoaster relationship? it actually reminds me a little of joel/clementine/e.sunshine. however, just because it reminds me of a rollercoaster relationship doesn't mean it is one.

Aren't all relationships like rollercoasters? Some may have more loop-de-loops and vomit-inducing drops than others, but everything seems to have its ups and downs.

Especially when you start sleeping with your cat.
