Big and happy birthdays this week to Gm7 and The Categorical Imperative! They are old men. Bonus: Gm7's birthday cake make it onto boingboing.

Looks like Front is headed to ROFLcon in late April. It is a convention where people who are internet-famous get drunk. Or so Jeffrey claims. Though we suspect that Jeffrey's mere presence is enough to qualify anywhere as "where people who are internet-famous get drunk." All the attendeeds, once drunk, will surely spend the weekend looking at each other's referer logs and trying to figure out why we're 750,000,000,000 words into this internet thing and still haven't produced material as funny as Sid and Nanette pantomiming to Beethoven.

There's a Song Fight Live thing tonight and tomorrow night in Brooklyn and Front might not even make it over there. But he'll try. What is up with New York being too busy a place for to do fun things? Sadness!

Also, in case you needed another reason not to listen to Sean Paul, it seems he can give you seizures.

Sorry if you were sick of having years; we've decided to do another one! So happy rollover on the annumometer, folks. Drink something with bubbles in it. Front will sit by himself in a small bunker and play Sudoku on his phone. There is supposed to be a Y2K8 bug in the razr that sets your hi-score for expert mode to 14 seconds.

Other things to do at year's end: see Front's guest comic at Overcompensating, listen to the least appealing pop song scientific polling can muster, play a game that does not have buttons, watch a game where griefers render all your buttons useless, and make your own list of lists like this one.

MC Frontalot: second-sexiest geek of the year? We're glad this Violet Blue person did not peruse the available evidence. Perhaps we can hide Front's obvious lameness long enough to for her to locate him and pick him up at a bar in the Mission while he's home over the holidays.

Did you catch Front's guest appearance in The OC last week? Keep an eye on Jeff's site, there may be a surprise in store.

Our friendly neighborhood MC is way the heck behind in his listening. The stack of things he wants to hear is tall and wobbly! But he just got done playing the new Whoremoans album and it is shit hot. We think you can go to the (ow! the pain!) myspace and click on the album cover under "sounds like" if you want to buy it, or elsewise suffer through the Snocap dispenser. Also on the shit hot list: Doug Cheatwood's new CD. Another confusing pathway to purchase. Figure it out and you'll be glad. In the queue for Frontal examination? The debut Grammar Club EP, the Dual Core records, the new Wu Tang, and everything from this year's Pitchfork Top 50.
