So I’m following Adrienne Pierce on twitter and she replied to one of my tweets, which I’m pretty sure makes us BFFs. She’s a great singer songwriter who sings one of my favorite songs ever called Lost and Found. Take a listen below, and while you’re at it, relive those great Veronica Mars memories (with French subtitles! LOL @ “Le surf?” Oh Logan, how I miss you!):
Here’s her official site, and you can download her album on iTunes also, which I think you should do as soon as possible.

Reminds me a little of Lisa Loeb. PS, the 2 seconds where Kristen Bell is crying in the shower pretty much broke my heart. And I never even saw the show!
May 27th, 2009 at 11:56 pm
Hmm, plenty of hot eye candy, some of it shirtless, a blonde hairthing, and some cutie in argyle makes the clip very enjoyable.
Oh, and the songs okay, i guess. Not my cup of tea, but a pleasant little tune.
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 12:50 am
This reminds me that I need to watch Veronica Mars too! Ack. Too many shows to watch!
I like this girl’s voice. She should sing to just piano. lol.
And she replied to you?!?! That TOTALLY makes you BFFs.
May 28th, 2009 at 12:52 am
Oh, and everyone say hello to Josh (first comment), a good friend of mine who is a new Puntabulous commenter!
May 28th, 2009 at 2:23 am
Cute song. Haven’t seen VM either – it’s in the queue. Too bad you’re so far away Snickers, we could have a viewing marathon.
Hey Josh!
May 28th, 2009 at 6:55 am
Hi Josh. Puntabulous is a fun ride, but you may need to fasten your seatbelt on occasion. Oh, and have some unicorn chaser handy.
I’m with Polt about the song. S’ok, but not jumping out at me.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:33 am
Welcome to the fray, Josh! And that last blog entry at JoshIsTrashy is hilarious!
I’ll have to look at the Adrienne Pierce video via my iPhone — it’s blocked here at work — so I’ll check it out shortly.
May 28th, 2009 at 8:20 am
Well, I have to get my butt to work so I’ll watch it there. Welcome Josh. I noticed your avatar right away (which I won’t see at work for some weird reason).
May 28th, 2009 at 8:58 am
“Hi, my name is Josh, and i’m a Puntabulous commenter”
Everyone: “Hi, Josh”
And I’m sry Craig, after Dawson’s Creek I lost any (little) patience I had for teenage drama. Hell, some of my 25-30yr old friends are still stuck in teenage dramas. Ugh.
May 28th, 2009 at 9:27 am
Okay, I listened to it at work. I liked it. But I’m dying to know what they were talking about when lobsters came up at the beginning of that video. Also love when they throw in anglicisms. “les loosers” A classic Quebecism someone heard in a bar near here (because we are on the border it gets pretty butchered) was “Je drive le truck” Riiight. Let’s just toss “le” in front of English words to make them French. Okay, totally off topic. Sorry.
David: Funny. I have visions of us all sitting in a circle on ugly little chairs drinking coffee out of paper cups and looking awkward. Oh, no teen dramas for me either. I live with one, that’s plenty o’ drama in my life.
May 28th, 2009 at 9:36 am
I hate veronica mars with a PASSION! She stole Joan of Arcadia’s time slot with her sucky show! Then she came on Heroes and ruined that too (more so than it had already ruined itself)!
May 28th, 2009 at 9:37 am
Welcome Josh! Any friend of Enrickyricardo’s is a friend of mine!
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 9:41 am
GoKitty: How dare you defile Veronica Mars’ good name! It was one of the best shows ever! And you can’t blame it for being such a good show that people switched over from Joan of Arcadia. They were on different channels! Lastly, Kristen Bell was one of the best parts of Heroes sucktastic 2nd season!
May 28th, 2009 at 11:05 am
Craig, GoKitty…I sense a guest debate here.
Oh, and hello…frequent reader, but not much on commenting.
May 28th, 2009 at 11:13 am
Hey Philip! Glad you’re speaking up! You can read all you want, but not commenting doesn’t get you on the Starship Puntabulous! Keep it up!
May 28th, 2009 at 11:19 am
Welcome Philip. And yes, getting on the Starship Puntabulous is a worthy goal.
Can I whine now? My throat and head hurt. Wah wah wah. Back to work. Sigh.
May 28th, 2009 at 11:48 am
Sorry about your pain, Tam. But your earlier comment about pseudoFrench has planted an earworm all its own: “Le freak, c’est chic! aaauuUUUWWW FREAK OUT!….”
May 28th, 2009 at 11:57 am
TwoPi: I am disco dancing right here in my office in my chair! I’m gonna put on my boogie shoes and boogie with you!
HUGS..
May 28th, 2009 at 12:05 pm
Craig: You are so wrong. Kristen Bell wasn’t one of the best parts of Heroes sucktastic 2nd season, she was the *only* good part of that sucktastic season.
May 28th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
GoKitty: I loved Joan of Arcardia!!! Wasn’t the series finale amazing? I still remember the fire!
May 28th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
YAY! Disco!:
“Have you heard about the new dance craze?
Listen to us, I’m sure you’ll be amazed
Big fun to be had by everyone
It’s up to you, It surely can be done
Young and old are doing it, I’m told
Just one try, and you too will be sold
It’s called Le Freak! They’re doing it night and day
Allow us, we’ll show you the way..
Awwww FREAK OUT!”
May 28th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Welcome Josh and Philip! We always welcome new inmates to the asylum.
Sorry Craiggers, I left high school behind and never looked back, and I don’t want to watch any show that reminds me of all the pointless teenage drama of that era in my life.
A not-quite-off-topic topic: did anyone else get teary-eyed at last nights So You Think You Can Dance when the football coach father of one of the dancers spoke about his son? I can only hope to be that kind of role model for my kids.
May 28th, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Whoops!
Welcome Phillip, post more and often.
M. Nico: I didn’t see it, do you have a link?
May 28th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
Yeah Philip keep posting. Don’t stop. Post harder!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:06 pm
Maybe I really should start using Twitter religiously. I mean, how cool is it to have famous people tweet at you!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
John: sorry, I can’t find a clip yet. I will let you know if I find one.
May 28th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I am begging anyone who didn’t watch Veronica Mars because they thought it was a high school teen drama to give it a shot. It’s a funny murder mystery that happens to star a high schooler!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Craig: Begging is a nice start. When will the groveling begin? Offers of cash won’t be declined either.
May 28th, 2009 at 1:57 pm
John: here is the clip, the part I am talking about starts at 1:00.
Craig: begging? Hmmm… maybe if you were wearing that houseboy ensemble while begging I might consider it
May 28th, 2009 at 1:58 pm
Begging huh? Maybe if you get on your knees I’ll consider it. And pictures or it didn’t happen.
May 28th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
Veronica Mars? I haven’t even had a chance to watch Gone with the Wind. But I hear one of the stars is an up and comming nymphomaniac named Vivian….Something or other. I’ll add Veronica Mars to my 70 year old cue.
May 28th, 2009 at 2:05 pm
I think you should combine the suggestions. Grovel on your knees wearing the houseboy outfit with some bills stuffed somewhere, take a picture and post it. You have until tomorrow
May 28th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I certainly aspire to join the Starship Puntabulous.
David from Brazil: I don’t know if they consider that appropriate behaviour at work. They may look the other way if you do it furtively behind closed doors…
May 28th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
“Grovel on your knees wearing the houseboy outfit with some bills stuffed somewhere, take a picture and post it.” And make sure you’ve got the same look on your face that you had in the red Canada t-shirt photos and I’m buying the Veronica Mars boxed set!
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
Phillip, if you’re cute (or drawn cutely in MSPaint, I suppose), I can find a…position for you in the Medical department.
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
Polt: Did you just give yourself a nosebleed again with the image that would make you purchase the box set?
May 28th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
M. Nico: I just watched the clip, that Dad has a ton of class.
May 28th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Nico: Awwww. That was so sweet. It did make me teary eyed. I hope I’m a supportive Mom. And I’d want to go to the school and kick their asses for teasing my baby. *sniff*
May 28th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
I did get a nosebleed, but since I’m the Chief Medical Officer on the Starship Puntabulous, I just prescribed myself a hypospray of trioxycotinien, and now, I feel….swell….
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
Geez. One mention of begging and you guys get all hot and bothered. Pervs!
May 28th, 2009 at 3:12 pm
Actually, I think Veronica Mars took the Gilmore Girls spot and thats why i hate her.
enrico: the ending was such a cliffhanger and i feel very unfulfilled when I think about this show. They had just introduced the devil character and then it got canceled.
Does anyone watch Reaper?
May 28th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Craig: Two things:
A) I didn’t get perverted, I simply suggested that groveling and cash might help.
B) The fact this comment string got perverted surprises you?!?
C) There is no C, I said two things. Weren’t you paying attention?
May 28th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
I watched Reaper a few times. Guy’s cute, Devil’s funny, but the sugar-coated romance storyline makes me ill and the whole thing is kinda juvenile.
May 28th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Craiggers, I’m ALWAYS hot and bothered. And a perv. You shouldn’t be surprised by my response.
…….but, but, but…..does this mean, you’re NOT going to be showing the red Canada t-shirt face again?
HUGS…
May 28th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Who are we mere monkeys to question our Monkey Lord.? If Craig commands we watch Veronica Mars, we watch Veronica Mars. Geez.
May 28th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
And then we dance. To disco.
May 28th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
I have no respect for a man who begs, unless he’s tied to my bed. But that’s a different story.
May 28th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
Michelle M: Sing it sister!
May 28th, 2009 at 4:03 pm
GoKitty: Reaper is one of my guilty pleasures, although the series is kinda going down hill. They really need to get Kevin Smith to work on the show again, those were the best episodes IMHO.
Tam: I am totally with you; having gone through high school “different” I would so want to kick some ass if my kid was picked on. Although I have high hopes that by that time society will have matured enough to be more supportive of diversity. I mean, my little brother was the first openly gay Homecoming King at his school, so things are getting better, right?
May 28th, 2009 at 4:26 pm
Nico: One can hope. My daugther starts high school in Sept. (ACK!!!) Its still rough I think. Not even just being gay, being too tall, too short, too anything different. I hope that its more live and let live than it used to be and will continue to improve.
May 28th, 2009 at 5:18 pm
Nico: I didnt know Kevin Smith had worked on that series at all. Thats cool. I liked the last episode with the Quarters wager. I heard its been canceled though?
May 28th, 2009 at 5:30 pm
I haven’t seen Reaper — how would it compare to Dead Like Me?
Craig, that’s totally cool that you and Adrienne Pierce are best buds! And Veronica Mars is added to Netflix now. I’m pretty sure work will understand if I have to take six months off to catch up on TV watching.
May 28th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
GoKitty: I guess so, I haven’t been keeping an eye on the CW lineup but a quick web search said it was canceled.
Xi_Heather: nothing like Dead Like Me. It’s a comedy about a slacker who has to capture souls that have escaped from hell. Add his two inept roomates as sidekicks and hilarity ensues.
May 28th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
Yep, reaper is over, kaput, cancelled. I’ll miss it, the second season was so much better than the first.
May 28th, 2009 at 6:35 pm
Nico/Tam: I look forward to the day when an openly gay prom king/queen isn’t newsworthy. Then again, there was a thing in the NYTimes just last week about high schools which still have segregated proms (presumably by student choice, not government action) in the form of separate proms for students of color. Slowly I turn, step by step…
(As an aside, I can’t decide if I love that one of the kids interviewed in that hyperlinked news article gave a fantastic fake name to the interviewer, or alternately if I hate that someone’s parents actually named them “Unique Payne”. I guess “Unbearable” would have been a worse first name, but still….)
May 28th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Ophilia?
May 28th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
Geebz everybody! Getting off of work to find a barrage of such wonderfully welcoming comments was absolutely derricious to mah sooooul [though a parade WOULD have been nice
]. I hope to get to know you all better and to fully experience the magical world of wonder that is Puntabulous. LOVEz IT.

Enricoz: Gracias for the introduction. Now go listen to P!nk/Kelly Clarkson/not PCD.

John: My safety beltz are fastened and I am ready! And unicorn chaser?!
Dave S: Your compliment is much appreciated! Checking out your site right now and I give it a huge “LOVEZ IT!”
Tam: Thank you very much for the warm welcome. Your avatar…is that a tat of yours?!
David from Brazil: I’m hoping this support group will do my lotz of goooood.
Polt: I’m that we are now amigoz through Enricoz/Puntabulous! Nice shirtless dudez all over your blog.
M. Nicodemus: When do we get our half hour of outside exercise? I have to keep my blogging fingaz in shape.
Craig: Good job on having a blog that’s a) so awesome, b) home to so many personas fantasticas, and c) willing to have my comments spewed all over it.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
* Polt: I’m GLAD that we are now amigoz through Enricoz/Puntabulous! Nice shirtless dudez all over your blog.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:14 pm
josh: You missed the parade, but it can be found here.
And Unicorn Chaser: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/unicorn-chaser.html
It comes in handy sometimes.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:18 pm
I’m totally going to start talking like Josh.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
Michelle: I’m supa serial deluxe flattered! <3
May 28th, 2009 at 7:22 pm
And john: I would be a dirrty bag filled with liez if I didn’t admit that there have been a couple dozen times when I wished I had a Unicorn Chaser (or six) to cure my tainted mind.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:34 pm
josh: We’ve all been there, some of us more than others. Oh and you said taint(ed), hee hee hee.
Michelle M.: It iz a little infekshus isn’t it?
May 28th, 2009 at 7:38 pm
Oh, and a belated welcome to Josh and Philip! Although I can’t start talking like Josh because I’ll do it all wrong and people will slap posters of cats on my head.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
John: You are incorrigible.
Josh: Yes, its my tattoo. Any any friend of Enrico’s is a friend of mine.
TwoPi: Seriously? Segregated proms? I’m speechless, really.
May 28th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
Xi_Heather: Dead Like Me!! That’s another show I have on my “to watch” list. I’m watching True Blood right now.
And as for talking like Josh, just start by adding a ‘z’ to the end of words that have an ’s.’
May 28th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
Tam: With luck, this link will work (although you might need a [free] login at nytimes.com to use it): http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/24/magazine/24prom-t.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=prom&st=cse
May 28th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
I guess we can take solace in the fact that segregated proms *are* now newsworthy.
Sigh. Time for some Unicorn Chaser.
May 28th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Sometimes I’m just stunned. (I shouldn’t be probably.) This is one of those times. My daughter’s Grade 8 “graduation” (don’t get me started) dance is coming up. I can’t FATHOM a situation where the whole “graduating” class would not be included. It just boggles my mind. About 40% of my daughter’s school is Muslim so I suppose the potential would be there, but I can’t see it happening, ever. Double unicorn chaser for me.
May 28th, 2009 at 8:18 pm
Tam & TwoPi: I saw this that article last week and was completely floored. If I remember correctly, the article I read said the kids want to have an integrated prom, but weren’t allowed to do so. It amazes me that this still goes on, but perhaps I am being naive.
Tam: I have to admit, I typed taint(ed) just for you.
May 28th, 2009 at 11:10 pm
Sorry but I never watched Veronica Mars either, thought it was just another teen drama, but now I hear that isn’t true.
Guess I’ll have to give it a shot, but I still get to keep my penis, no vagina exchange over one show.
And now Mr. Craiggers, you should watch a John Waters flick, I recall Pecker being talked about the other day, I think you would really like that one. Here’s just a little taste:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JuWjfWcHOY&feature=related
May 29th, 2009 at 12:52 am
Enricoz: you figured out me & my cryptic language! ;P
And segregated dances?! What is this…”Hairspray”?!
May 30th, 2009 at 7:55 am
Aw you lovelies are too sweet here. And Craig, you posted that just for me didn’t you!
My french still needs work but I am glad to see that “Boo-yah!” is the same word as in English. What was the bit about conjugal visits? And did they get together or not? Seriously.
