Huh, if we hadn't moved, my sister would have gone to junior high and high school with Amanda Palmer.
And Vic Chesnutt has died, after all: [link]
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
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.

Aw, so sad about Vic. I really, really loved his music. I wish I would have seen live. I had one chance when I lived in Vancouver years ago, and I was working on a show, but I always regretted not going.
He played in Halifax a couple of times, in the years I was living in Vancouver. He recommended a band that my friend's had to his then record label at the time.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Do we know how they started dating? Was it b/c of the book collaboration or the other way around?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

When did the book happen? They've been an item for a while.

They started hanging out because of the book collaboration, and slowly started dating.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Amazing video of Vic Chesnutt, filmed just last month for a Canadian web/cable TV show.
I'm blown away. And really regretting that I've never seen him live.
Am all sad about him dying all over again.
