Utter Wonder: The Idle Thoughts Of C. Monks

I Know This Looks Like I'm Phoning It In But Whatever.

I'm totally tapped from responding to all your comments yesterday. So all have to give today is this pleasant video sent all the way from Japan.

I guarantee that if you watch it four times you will fall in love. Or kill a hobo.

Have a nice weekend.

This post is dedicated to vitamin supplements.

Comments.

I once fell in love with a dead hobo. And I'd kill that hobo again if given the chance. I LIKE MUSTARD! Why is that so hard to understand?

I'm betting if this version were in the "The Times They Are-a Changin" play, it would not be closing down. It certainly has better choreography. Of course, I'm a little bias since I'm a Dylan fan with an affinity towards anorexic, Japanese women.

I think Mariko is the best at capturing the Dylan spirit. Those other girls just don't seem to get it.

P.S. If I were a bastard, I might say, "John Hodgman called--he wants his hobo references back."

Aargh. I know. You don't know how many times I have started writing something about hoboes and then thinking "I can't do this, it's Hodgman's."

But yesterday, I broke free from those chains. My hope is it will help others do the same. Making fun of hoboes should be for everybody.

Except hoboes.

i like that they don't appear to suffer for their art, particularly waka.

I struggle every day to not turn my blog into purely a collection of YouTube videos so I can appreciate your level of restraint.

Well it certainly is a better version of the song than the last one you posted. I'm not punching the drywall in my home after this version...so I guess that's a good thing.

I'm phoning in my response. Enjoy!
