Last week, I posted a paean to mid-’80s sitcom It’s Your Move. Quoting this episode summary, I made reference to “Matthew’s idiot buddy Eli (Adam Jay Sadowsky).”

(Eli, you see, was supposed to hire the band Morning Breath for a school dance, but he loses the money. As a result, show hero Matthew [Jason Bateman] has to invent a new band, the Dregs of Humanity. Much hilarity ensues.)

Anyway, what should my referrer logs tell me but the fact that Adam Jay Sadowsky has a web site and (since this is 2004) has a blog. From the site we learn Adam is a left-leaning hippopotami lover and can script in Perl, Python, and Tcl. He seems to have adjusted into a perfectly normal techie.

But best of all, you can hear, in glorious stereo sound, Eli is GOD (4.2 megs), an ode to Adam’s It’s Your Move character performed by a band called Amygdala: The Nocturnal Burrito. It even features audio from the show! Surely, a classic.

I just landed in Seattle — expect sporadic (if any) postings through Monday.
