The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm just saying, so you could present yourself as Official and not fangirl.

I could just say, "I'm with TimMinear.net" and let folks assume what they will.

Fans always assumed I worked for Mutant Enemy, and FOX always assumed I has a large collection of tin foil hats.

I started writing a show description that makes sense, and then I realized I was acting craxy. What i should do is wash my face and curl up in bed with a book.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

So I drop in here to talk about how SCARY ASS the promo for The Inside was, and how it did make me psyched for the show, and (hundreds of posts back) I see Tim and Allyson discussing the Old 97s! When Obsessive Media Consumption Behaviors Collide!

I have seen the Old 97s, and Rhett Miller solo, more times than I can count at this point, and often with Buffistas. (Joe Boucher on Rhett's performance style, said in typical Joe deadpan: "He's Gumby, dammit.") Msbelle even has a small-town-Texas connection to Murry.

Their "The Other Shoe" would make great background music to a murder scene. I'm just saying. Did I mention the "The Inside" promo was scary as all hell?

Tim sent me a bunch of iTunes suggestions of the Old 97s. Weightless is my favorite.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

They used "The New Kid" on VM.

Yes, everything is Veronica Mars with me.

I love "Weightless"! Even though (or because?) it always makes me think of the Talking Heads song "Heaven."

Lately, I've been listening a lot to "Adelaide" and "Bloomington" off the new record, and seeing them perform it live got me started on liking "Friends Forever." But the record I always try to start people with is Too Far To Care, which I wrote about for Hec's book. Check out "Timebomb," "Barrier Reef," "Salome," and "Four Leaf Clover" (with Exene!) from that record, if they have them on iTunes. I'll even spot you the 99 cents per.

And if you, or Tim (hi, Tim!) get a chance, you should see the band, or just Rhett Miller solo, perform live -- they're a very very good band, and Rhett's solo acoustic shows rock harder than you think they could.
