		<description><![CDATA[What if the Fleet Foxes wrote the theme song to the cancelled FOX show, 'Back to You'...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src='http://jacobreed.net/blog/wp-content/plugins/simple-post-thumbnails/timthumb.php?src=/blog/wp-content/thumbnails/39.png&amp;w=200&amp;h=150&amp;zc=1&amp;ft=jpg' alt='post thumbnail' /></p>
<p>You know how sometimes you&#8217;re joking around with friends and you say &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be funny if&#8230;&#8221; and then you say something that at best mildly amusing? I think it&#8217;s safe to say that &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be funny if&#8230;&#8221; roughly translates to &#8220;Hey, this is a somewhat funny idea in theory, but definitely not worth the time it would take to write a sketch around it or edit it &#8211; actually, come to think of it, it&#8217;s not worth any more time than the five seconds during which it surfaced in this conversation.&#8221; Roughly.</p>
<p>Well&#8230; tonight, I wasted an hour following through with one of those &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be funny if&#8230;&#8221; situations. At some point in the last few months, <a title="It's Justin Michael!" href="http://heyjustin.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Justin</a> and I were driving in my car listening to the Fleet Foxes song <a title="Ragged Wood on Hype Machine" href="http://hypem.com/#/track/970614/Fleet+Foxes+-+Ragged+Wood" target="_blank">Ragged Wood</a>. Toward the end of the song, they repeatedly sing &#8220;Back to You&#8221; and Justin said, &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be funny if this was the theme song for the Kelsey Grammer show, <em>Back To You</em>?&#8221;</p>
<p>Well, here&#8217;s the answer: No. It would not be funny.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="270" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8511341&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="270" src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8511341&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Can you believe I spent an hour finding an episode of Back to You, ripping it, opening it in Final Cut Pro, timing the music and mixing the audio? I sure can&#8217;t. I guess if there&#8217;s a joke anywhere, it&#8217;s on me for wasting time making this. But, oh well, here it is. Did you watch it? Now you&#8217;re my time-wasting accomplice.</p>
<p>One thing that did surprise me: The opening credit sequence for Back To You is actually pretty cool. Also, I wonder if Ty Burrel was bummed that this show got cancelled, and then really glad it got cancelled once he was offered Modern Family.</p>

<p>My old blog got hacked. Not sure how it happened, and I&#8217;m definitely upset about losing all of the posts that were on it, but I didn&#8217;t notice until about three months later. That means I didn&#8217;t blog for three months. It&#8217;s kind of like not feeding your baby for three months and then checking the crib and being shocked it&#8217;s dead. Actually it&#8217;s not like that at all, but I guess I&#8217;m just saying that part of me feels like I deserved this. Use it or lose it, ya know?</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a positive first post.</p>
<p>(Also, the thumbnail for this post is my halloween costume from this year. I was a sports medicine kinesiologist who was the on-site physician for the Las Vegas International Golf Tournament. Yes, it was specific. No, it&#8217;s not really related to this post. I just needed a thumbnail to try out the new theme for this blog. If you really need it to make sense, maybe go with some kind of &#8220;fixing the blog&#8221; or &#8220;blog check-up&#8221; doctor metaphor.)</p>
