If you ever need a stranger...

In the name of procrastination (Iamterrible):

The goddamn friggy embed code won't work even for Vimeo but click it and see.
The other thing I'm checking out on a vaguely related note (strangers you see!) is Richard Renaldi's not entirely outstanding photographic series 'Touching Strangers', the premise of which is he asks some total strangers in the street to touch each other then takes a picture. Awkward, yes. Occasionally moving. I quite like 'Kim and Yoshi'.

Also, fifty things you might not know about Barack Obama! He is a leftie (left-handed, that is), speaks Spanish, listens to Bob Dylan. Favourite movies: Casablanca and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Favourite TV shows: M*A*S*H and The Wire. He applied to appear in a black pin-up calendar while at Harvard but was rejected by the all-female committee. Fools! In other news, Joan Jett has released a version of Silent Night for seasonal compilation album A Blackheart Christmas featuring excerpts from Obama's victory speech... My iTunes is malfunctioning along with everything else on this dang computer, but sounds bizarre oui?
