It Made My Day

It Made My Day or IMMD is a site full of moments that brightened someone's life. All of them are funny and it's a nice contrast to FML. Here are some examples...

"I was walking my dog when a purse snatcher ran past me and stole the poop bag. IMMD."

"This morning, i was walking down a road in my neighborhood, when suddenly i heard a very loud, epic music coming from an apartment. When i got closer, i figured it was the music from Lord of the Rings. Then i yelled “FOR FRODOOO”. And someone from the apartment yelled back “ELENDIIIIIIL!!!” IMMD"

"I was evicted last night and had to sleep in the park. When I woke up there were 8 cats asleep on me. IMMD "

"My car broke down two weeks ago. I owed 12k. Yesterday a drunk driver rammed it and totaled it. His insurance covered everything I owe, now I am free of a lemon car. IMMD"

"The girl in school who calls all the other girls sluts, showed up at school with a baby bump. IMMD"

Around the 8 minute mark is where I got goosebumps.

Dead Man's Bones

Dead Man's Bones seems perfect for Halloween because they're kind of spooky all the time. Led by Ryan Gosling (you know, of Lars and The Real Girl and The Notebook) and often featuring choirs, many of them childrens choirs dressed up as little skeletons or zombies, Dead Man's Bones is definitely growing on me with every listen.



This is my favorite song so far. It's very appropriate for Halloween.

These guys came to Columbia a million times while I was at Mizzou and I never knew who they were. But now I realized I missed out!!! Doesn't this remind you of the O Brother Where Art Thou Soundtrack?
