Overwhelming? How much more than whelming would that be exactly?

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I wouldn't pay $249 for a 4GB Nano when the 20GB iPod is only $50 more.

Preach it.

And the new iTunes phone? [link]

Also $250. And it can hold a whopping 100 songs on its 512 MB memory card (and they calculate that at a much lower kbps rate than I prefer). Again, I say 60GB (or at least 20GB) is the way to go.

That Rilo Kiley cover should have successfully sent to Buffistarawk. Enjoy, kids.

Excellent. Gracias Snr. Broom.

The Nano will survive far more physical abuse than a 60GB iPod. If you do a lot of running or are clumsy enough to drop an iPod on concrete (hi), the Nano is a good value.

That said, I have a 40GB iPod. And I baby that thing. I probably treat it better than Annabel (that is, I don't bounce it up in the air or play horsey with it).

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I think somebody wants an iPod to call their very own...

It's painfully true. I just saw the Nano when I went to the Apple site to look at docks.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

David Sedaris - "You Can't Kill The Rooster"

::snerk:: I think I laugh harder at his stories about his redneck brother than at any of his other pieces.

Yeah, I love those the most, too.

Are you ready to be strong?

Ken Nordine sucks.

Hec, from way back: Kate Spade bags are not particularly expensive or "fancy." They are solidly middlebrow in every way.

It would take him about 30 minutes to say the same thing.

I'm really amused by that juxtaposition.

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

Ken Nordine sucks.

Egad, and to think I was going to leave you my beatnikiana collection in the event of my untimely death. Like, Squaresville baby. Population: You.

I am duly educated. Do you have to go all the way to a Hermes's Birkin to get a Fancy Bag?

Also, check this out, Strega sent me some videos on DVD including a Steve Buscemi short that ran on Bravo in 1992. As the credits roll, I was startled to see that one of the production assistants was none other than...RIO HERNANDEZ!

information libertarian

I'd like to live Rio's rock-star lifestyle, 'cause where I'm coming from, $250-$400 for a handbag is definitely expensive. I think "fancy" is more of a judgment call.
