Corn Lobbyist Wheeler Deeler confronts Senator Flip Phlopper in his Washington DC office.
Corn Lobbyist (emotional): I've given you everything. I embraced your body politic with my assets. I caressed your palm with hush money. I've gotten you high in our corporate jet. Now I catch you with that scrawny little two-faced soybean lobbyist slut!
Senator Flip Phlopper (defensive): Wheeler, listen, it didn't mean a thing. I just went to her smoke-filled room for a little cronyism, that's all.

| | Flakes | | 2008-03-04 15:07:00 | | I'm a bit late on this i guess. With that I mean The Mystery Jets and this flowing and bewitching tune. I missed out on The M. Jets first album, Making Dens, in 2006. It just seemed to past me by like a gentle drizzle if I wearing a water proof onesie and had a golf umbrella. I'm sad it did because after hearing Flakes a couple of times I wanted to be drenched in their dappled, crisp, seeping sound.The vocal melodies glow and strobe in amongst a rich, fresh blanket of noise; the guitars hum and buzz canorously and the drum beat is sharp and not intrusively snappy.

| Hollywood Flakes Interview | | 2007-11-10 21:24:00 | | Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Hollywood Flakes, Happy Birthday to you!Okay, I actually forgot my birthday and this is two days late. On November 9, 2005, this blog was born. It was a slimy, whiny little thing with a misshapen head but Spike (yes, that's my husband's name now) and I saw potential. The blog had to go through many awkward rites of passage. The post begging for comments, the post where I discovered stat counters. The post where I discovered it was fun to write about the crazy stuff that goes on in my head. Slowly but surely, the blog took on its warped form. Now two years later I have a hard time remembering that I created the blog and not the other way around. To commemorate the occasion, I'm posting an interview I did today for a website. Enjoy.Your Name: HollywoodPlease give us a description of your blog: A humor blog about the unexpected laughs in parenting, wonky product reviews, unlikely bits of tenderness, and cautionary tal... | | By: Hollywood Flakes: Get 'em While They're Hot | | |
