The old Ford V8 logo is so gorgeous and perfect. Victory, exhaltation, racing, flying.

Leonard Cohen turned seventy on Tuesday and The Guardian gives us seventy LC facts.

I remember that Yon dated a woman who was Leonard Cohen's goddaughter. I was very jealous and not because my ex-boyfriend was going out with a stunning, sexy woman, but that she had a relationship with coolest guy on earth (and sorry Yon, I don't mean you).

Last night I was invited to go on a Bush/Cheney giant-sign-stealing-expedition but opted out. Too many cocktails, too short of a skirt, and too fancy of heels to join in. Hope they got it though.

(and as I type this KCRW is playing:   there's blood in my mouth/ 'cause I've been biting my tongue all week/ I keep talking and not saying anything... Sure.)
