Bonus Friday five.

I got an email from my good friend Adam Yauch telling me about this movie that I need to go see. His email sparked a random Wikipedia series of events which brings you five things you might not know about the Beastie Boys, in no particular order:

• My boyfriend Adam Horovitz, who you probably know was married to Ione Skye for a few years, is now married to riot grrrl extraordinaire and former lead singer from Bikini Kill, Kathleen Hanna. (Damn.)
  
• The band is over 25 years old. (Damn!)
  
• The Dust Brothers sampled "So What'cha Want" on Beck's song "E-Pro." (I don't hear it, but whatever.)
  
• According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the Boys are credited with coining and popularizing the word "mullet."
• The band was the first to win Grammies in both rap and alternative categories in the same year.

I knew there were reasons I loved these guys other than just their albums.

OK, the email went to the entire web-based fanlist, but I know he had me in mind specifically when he sent it. I just know it.
