I don’t tend to go in for conspiracy theories, and it all smacks a little too much of “Please, Brer Fox, don’t fling me in that briar patch,” but Notes on the Atrocities discusses a theory about Abu Ghraib making the rounds. I’ve also recently read theories that the Nick Berg video was staged, that he was a government operative, etc. etc. You know, right about now I really wish we had a national media you could trust to actually investigate the important stuff, rather than waiting for the RNC to spoon feed them stories about how Kerry flip-flops too often.

That actress is Zooey Deschanel. The track above is their VMA nominated video for Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?.

Good stuff. Today has been a music bonanza. The album is Volume One. Click through to buy the album.

As much as I like blogs and K5, I need to see someone with cred take this on. Even the cites contained in the K5 article don’t convince me yet. The blood thing is pretty bizarre, though.
