That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

That's what Kristen Hersh does. And she put an album like that, titled something like Murder, Mayhem and Goodnight. That's Emmett's favorite version of "All The Pretty Little Horses."

Yup--probably my favorite Kristin Hersh album. I, uh, have a thing for murder ballads.

I believe Plei's thing is scheduled for 2pm, west coast time. Not that I have an entry in my Notes calendar to send vibes or anything.

Oh, I'm having wicked flashbacks to summer camp, where we sang songs at Morning Flagpole and then again at breakfast.

Fortunately, my constant camp-song earworm today (thanks, guys) has now been upgraded to California Uber Alles.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

She probably heard it when she was a wee thing.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

This PotUS is not allowed to have an iPod. It's is incorrect.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The playlist does reveal a rather narrow range of babyboomer tunes. Writing in the London Times, Caitlin Moran noted: "No black artists, no gay artists, no world music, only one woman, no genre less than 25 years old, and no Beatles."

Pfft. That's specious crap. Besides, didn't she see John Cusack's "world music" rant in High Fidelity.

The Tequila Twins gave it to him. They should upload things like "Thong Song" and "Milkshake".

Pssst! Kate loves Nick Cave. Pass it on.

I believe Plei's thing is scheduled for 2pm, west coast time.

That's to call and find out when they've got room for her. I think the actual induction will happen tomorrow.

GC, I heard that song from my mom as well.

Not sure if it was a just her being her or a hazard of her teaching preschool through elementary.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

but also songs by Joni Mitchell,

I wonder if it has "The Fiddle and the Drum" on there, and he's completely oblivious to any irony that would be involved.
