Allyson, suggest to you SIL that when he gets in his debate phase, that you become the grand arbitrator. As in, when they get into the argument cycle, they call you to break it. I totally love getting phone calls from the neph demanding I settle a debate over whether he can eat canned carrots (yuk!) for dinner or whether the yellow power ranger kills ants. Plus, it get me "OKBYE ILOVEYOU." which ...just...
melt.
I just heard a version of "Oops, I did it again" that was..interesting. Richard Thompson. Not pop, at all.

And really perfectly in keeping with his ouevre which includes such lyrics as "I feel so good tonight / I want to break somebody's heart."
I don't know him from anywhere but my local public radio saturday night.
OK, I've just affirmed to myself I am the most neurotic travel-person ever. I swear, I'm turning into my Aunt Mary, and that's not good. I just want everything clear, you know? And that makes me insane. I think it must have to do with my lack of cellphone. Back in the pre-cell days, my plans and alternate strategies made sense. Now that everyone but me has cells, it comes across as insane. Mmrph.

Well, he's got quite the cult following as both a songwriter and a guitarist. He's written many dark and beautiful songs and he plays like nobody else - tart and economical or genuinely majestic.
Interesting. Basically my music exposure comes from Sat. night at 88.1 (wypr) and then in the car, the local towson music public radio station, 89.7 (wtmd) which makes me happy even if it earworms me with that damned thank you changing lanes song. Which I'm still irked about.
Help! Does anyone know where one could find a decent bodhran that is authentic to late period (for my sister who's in the SCA) in the Los Angeles area? The place we ordered from can't ship in time for Christmas!
Sarameg, you might even know a guy writing a book about Mr. Thompson who could possibly hook you up with a best-of mix.
Hee! Have we seen this Japanese Matrix Ping Pong? The SO passed along the link.

This is me wrt getting a group of people in different cars from Place A to Place B. I like to get everyone to stand in one place for five seconds and hear the route so that we all know where we're going. But everyone always says, "Don't worry, we have cell phones!" Yeah, sure, but..... I just don't like getting lost.
