I forgot I share a birthday with The Black Parade! Awesome. Guess I know what Rosie and I will be listening to on our drive home tonight.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
My 90 year Mom read Edgar Allan Poe's "The Bells" for a Halloween event. If you are looking for some Poe to read for Halloween that is a little less widely shared than "The Raven", I highly recommend. Some people say it is hard to read, but if you avoid the 20th and 21st century tendency of reading poetry as prose, and deliver it rapid fire and embrace the rhythm and syncopation and alliteration it is actually fairly straightforward. One of the young people listening said it was 19th century rap, and really she had a point. It is almost a week yet to Halloween, and if anyone knows Goth rapper who would be interested maybe they could make a youtube of themselves reading "The Bells" rap style. I think I will xpost to music.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I am generally not a fan of dick-size jokes, but this line from The Monochrome Set's "J.D.H.A.N.E.Y" cracks me up:
He had a twelve-incher
But never used it as a rule

For no particular reason, I've gotten Roxas' Theme stuck in my head.
Boy, Shimomura really piled on the mono no aware for that, didn't she?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Possibly only Dana will "get" this, but I just listened to then end of the Les Miz 25th Anniversary concert, which made me nostalgic for the 10th anniversary concert. And I realized that Lea Salonga as Eponine and Lea Salonga as Fantine both sing the low part in the "Take my hand, and lead me to salvation" section. I am sure it was really because she is more comfortable with that part, but it seemed all interesting and meta.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I can imagine that rehearsal: "Look, I already know the harmony line. Anyone mind if I sing that and we move on?"

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
I have definitely had that conversation. "Don't make me learn a new part, don't make me learn a new part..."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Do we have any The Killers fans who might be able to tell me what the key albums are? (My niece has decided she like them.)
