I talked about that Britney song a couple of posts ago, but here's Fox News's take on it, just for the lulz. My other thought on this matter is that I did not catch the profanity until I read that it was there. I probably would have caught it eventually, but it's only as obvious as they're saying if you're listening for it. Maybe I just have lame observation skills, though. I don't know, here's the song.

Speaking of music, apparently Scarlett Johansson covered Jeff Buckley's "Last Goodbye" for the movie, He's Not that into You. I tried to look for it on YouTube to link it, but maybe it's better you didn't listen to it. Her voice isn't that bad, actually. I remember being incredibly unimpressed when I heard the single from the album she released last year. It's just a bad cover of a good song. It's streaming on Stereogum if you're that interested. If you want a good cover, TV on the Radio released a very good cover of David Bowie's "Heroes."

Also, the Bird and the Bee album, Ray Guns are Not Just the Future, was released today. It's soooo good. It's the Daily Download on Amazon today, so it's also relatively cheap.

And since I seem to like to talk about Josh Schwartz shows, apparently I missed the news that Scott Bakula is going to be playing Chuck and Ellie's dad on Chuck. I actually read about that during Contracts and I almost gasped out loud. It's good that I didn't. I'm not sure how I would explain that. Anyway, I am beyond excited about that. Not too keen on the fact that Monday's episode is going to be in 3D (people really need to stop trying to make that happen and let it remain a Disneyland novelty), but I am beyond excited. Seriously, this show's already has Tony Hale on it (who I hope they don't get rid of like they did with Masouka from Dexter). They could add someone like Lee Pace as Chuck and Ellie's long lost brother and the show would have amassed quite the collection of actors from my favorite canceled shows.

In other news, I just got back from volunteering at GAAP. I volunteer twice a week now. I like this more. I felt like I got nothing done coming in once a week on Monday mornings. Not that I do much more now since it's a lot slower on the afternoons, but it's nice to be there more than once a week. I only volunteer for like 40 minutes on Tuesdays, though, so it goes by quickly. There were fewer people in this afternoon than there usually are, so I spent all of that time making sure that all the files were in alphabetical order. Better than nothing I suppose.
