I finally saw a Tom Waits video the other night. It was just as sad and creepy as I expected a video of his to be, but still a disappointment. And I saw the original ending to the Cardigans Favorite Game video, and I'm reminded of the Bloom County strip where Opus complains about a certain song reminding him of porpoises slithering about in the Antarctic sun.... only to see the video full of half-naked women and explosions. Now the song makes him think of half-naked exploding porpoises.
