Josh Modell (General Manager, @joshmodell) made his first foray into journalism in grade school, when he wrote a sarcastic piece skewering lunchroom food. (Sample line: "It was smooth sailing on my Taco Boat!") The subject was re-examined in a middle-school monologue (to rapturous applause), but Modell eventually turned his critical pen toward music. In late 1993, he launched Milk Magazine, a regional print publication (this is before ya'll had websites!) with an eye toward indie-rock. Milk wound to a close just as The A.V. Club came calling, and with more than a little backstabbing and water-cooler character assassination, Modell worked his way up the ladder to General Manager, a title which probably means nothing to you, but at least sort of pleases his parents.

Reminder: Vote for the Undercover 2012 songs
Y'know, it was on the short list, but I want to try and avoid "clever" covers of hip-hop songs. Irony is a dead scene!

“Wednesday”
I totally missed that. Glad you guys caught it. Maybe that's our serialized story for the season?

We Need To Talk About Kevin
I felt like I was watching two different movies, one that was really thoughtful and interesting and "realistic" (starring Tilda Swinton), and then an over-the-top horror movie starring the kid. I thought parts were great, and I'd recommend seeing ...
