| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.) |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

 ...and Gnarls Barkley mash-ups, mixing some of Biggie's classic songs with songs from Gnarls Barkley's instant megahit cd, St. Elswhere.
The result? An extraordinary piece of musical superbness called The Gnotorious Gnarls Biggie.
 Produced by two cats who call themselves Sound Advice...
 ...the songs have been taken down repeatedly from MySpace, but these guys will not be stopped, so they've put up a website where you can hear the tunes for yourself.
Click the link===>here<===to go to the site and listen to the songs (click each song title and it will begin to play; don't be alarmed when the title gets blurry when you pass your cursor over it...that's just a part of their cleverness). I smell another renegade (read, illegal) must-have monster classic, a la The Grey Album.
Lawdamercy. I think I'm in love. This thing is extra swole.
*Hint: Right-clicking on a song (and holding the "option" key on a Mac) once it starts playing should save it to your desktop. What? They want you to take it. That's what these illegal mash-ups (and the website) are for. Even the original artists often give the mash-up folks mad props for the clever things they do with their music.
