Website of the Day: Cassette From My Ex
Mixed tapes on the Internet are rising in popularity, and I know if you're of a certain age, the sight of a cassette tape on any website seduces your memories with thoughts of the boyfriends, girlfriends, and unrequited crushes that handed you one of those little rectangles, full of emotions and messages.
But while most sites merely use the lexicon or imagery of the mixtape, like Muxtape and Mixwit, there's now a site that pulls at your heartstrings and discusses the real heart of mixed tapes: Cassette From My Ex.
Cassette From My Ex's blog posts are sentimental short stories of people recalling Summer romances or young loves and the mixtape that defined them.

Sixteen years after Serge Gainsbourg's death, his small, graffiti-covered Paris house is almost exactly as he left it—crammed with mementos of his poetic, nicotine-and-alcohol-fueled, sometimes scandalous life as France's most adored singer-songwriter, lover of Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot, and friend to countless taxi drivers and policemen.
LOST Recap - Episode 3.17 "Catch-22"
I have one thing to say about last night's episode: :zzz: There were a few funny parts, and the last few seconds were fairly exciting, but all we really learned is that Kate still has feelings for Jack, and that Des has a fear of commitment. Oh, and now we know why he calls everyone "brutha." Anyhoo, here's what happened: FLASHBACK: Desmond, with short hair and no beard, is a monk in Scotland.Whip's Sephora Wish List, part I
