A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Thank you, Jon! I'll point my friend there.
BTW, Jilli? Have you gotten the Siouxisie solo album yet? Because it's good. Really, REALLY good.
Of COURSE I have it. I think it's fabulous, and I am filled with despair that she's not coming to Seattle on tour.

We are going to the LA Siouxsie show. Woot!

Jon, the Hoodoo Gurus do a great version called "Little Drummer Boy (Up the Khyber)" that I can send to you.

Hec, you should talk Jilli into going down to SF for the Siouxsie show. Hell, you should go yourself - I think you'll really dig the spy jazz number she does on her album.

Jilli! Come down to San Francisco and see the Siouxsie with me! And JZ and Juliana and other people.
Let's spend money we don't have.

That might be my favorite thing on Beat the Retreat. Though I also really like the version of A Heart Needs a Home. Also liked Bob Mould and Los Lobos.
