  • Lileks on Batman

    Posted on January 28th, 2007 thehutch No comments

    Can’t help it. I’m on a Lileks kick, as I’m listening to his old podcasts.

    In this Bleatcast, he claims that “every era gets the Batman it deserves”, and he examines the music of every Batman. (Okay, okay, every major Batman. I know there are others like the serials and the animated shows, etc.) You can listen to it embedded in the page, or you can download the MP3. (I dug up the code by examining the source of that page. YOU’RE WELCOME.)

  • Celery damages underwear elastic?

    Posted on January 28th, 2007 thehutch No comments

    James Lileks analyzes “The Peculiar Art of Mr. Frahm”, a pin-up artist given to drawings of women placed in compromising positions by an armful of groceries and undergarments that don’t follow the laws of science. Lileks poses the question of whether it’s the celery in every picture which causes the accident.

    Oddly enough, he later discovers the true cause when a mysterious murder leads him on a merry chase about The Truth hidden in Art Frahm’s artwork; it happens in his June 2nd podcast of The Diner.
