We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Just a reminder: I'll be reading with Kim "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" Cooper and Scott "If You're Feeling Sinister" Plagenhoef at the Hammer Museum in LA tomorrow evening at 7 pm. It's free! The reading will include a video or two of Richard & Linda Thompson making music plus some audio comparisons of RT's music and a snippet of an interview. If you're in LA, please come! If you're not in LA, I think there's some cheap last-minute tickets available.

Because books.

Holy shit, Frank. I think "goodbye productivity" about sums it up. For today, anyway.

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

Thanks, Frank!

I repay your tip with Billy Bragg's Welcome to the New Brunette and The B-52s "Song For a Future Generation."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I will be there with my DH, Cor, barring any work craziness! And I owe you an email, so I will get that off ASAP.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Holy shit, Frank. I think "goodbye productivity" about sums it up. For today, anyway.

I'm doomed. DOOOOOOMED. Never getting any work done, ever again.

Because books.

Yeah, I went straight for "November Rain" myself. And then right on to everything I could think of from high school.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think "goodbye productivity" about sums it up.

Aww I struck out on my first try. They don't have "The New Song" by Howard Jones.
