The most surprising thing about this whole story? Kanye West was flying commercial.

He was out of fuel for his private jet obv.

Sept. 2007 Paste mag cover profile of Kanye. First sentence: "Kanye West flies commercial."

I revisited Troop Beverly Hills recently...it still holds up.

I too am surprised, and kind of bummed, that he was flying commercial. I loved the episode of Entourage when he let Vinny Chase and the boys hitch a ride on his private jumbo jet, but I guess it was too good to be true.

@Marth: Eh, The Wizard is closer to my heart, but, yeah, the Salute Your Shorts thing is odd.

@enriquez the water bottle: "Califooooornia?"

i.e., yes. But somehow the idea that the other guy was in Salute Your Shorts was always far more mind-blowing to me. That, and Rilo Kiley never really interested me to the extent that his Elected side-project did.

Ben Seaver is pissed that Kanye was talking to his girl.

@Marth: Have you not heard of a glorious film called The Wizard, starring Jenny Lewis, Wonder Years guy, and some other kid?

When he figures out who she is, I expect pictures on his blog.

@Kate Richardson: Any word on how short her pants/skirt/dress/skorts was/were? I'm sure Mr. West would have factored that in when assessing her reaction.

As far as I’m concerned, the most recognizable member of Rilo Kiley will always be the guy who used to be on Salute Your Shorts.

I think a lot of people don’t know who Jenny Lewis is. I wish I didn’t.
