I can find the most wonderful non-news on the web page for Houston’s only major newspapaper, the Houston Chronicle.  Mostly this is because Chron.com lists posts from their bloggers as news.  One of their best is kept by Kyrie O’Connor, the newspaper’s deputy managing editor.  I can’t imagine what her job looks like, but she somehow finds time to post interesting pop-culturey bits that she’s discovered or that people have sent to her.

Today she posted a music video by the band OK Go.  While I was in grad school OK Go released a cover called “Antmusic.”  I loved it maybe especially because those in the lab adjacent to me studied, among other things, social insects.  You know, like ants.

You don’t have to appreciate a thing about social insects to like the video for a song off their new album.  Give it a watch and a listen.  I think I’ve found my anthem for 2010.
