Link: Cormac on Yelp and Flickchart

I haven't been doing a good job of keeping my links section up to date but here are a couple of new ones.

My brother put me onto Yelping with Cormac, a site that is kind of a creative writing process in which a person is writing Yelp reviews as if they were Cormac McCarthy. The writer is impressive and some of the reviews, particularly the Apple Store are downright poetic. Although so far, my favorite might be the first review of Taco Bell which includes the thought, "Could God create a taco so bad that even He couldn't eat it?"

I'm sure I've posted this before but Flickchart is a fun time. It ranks your favorite movies based on head-to-head matchups. Some ridiculously easy (Anything versus Chain Reaction or Salt) and some quite difficult (Beverly Hills Cop vs. Lethal Weapon). It takes a while to get a legit ranking but it's a great time waster.

And I'd like to thank my buddy Ted for putting me onto The Horrors. An interesting sound although I have to say that I'm dying trying to figure out why I've heard their song "Still Life" or what it sounds like. Part of me thinks it might be The National but I'm not sure. Anyway, it's a cool song and if Ted gives a band a thumbs up (and he's currently addicted to their new album) then it's worth a listen.
