Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

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

Dunno if anyone will care, but here's a big-ass list of Artists, Bands and Musicians on Twitter

Somewhere out there, there has to be the librarian-equivalent of what you are as an actuary, surely!

Jon, that job opening makes me cry, because I don't have a library Master's yet, but could probably do it and already live here.

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

The qualified candidate must possess a Master's degree in library science, archival studies, or a related field. An additional degree in music or a related discipline is preferred.

Oooooh, pick me, pick me! Except that I have no plans to move to Cleveland anytime soon, as lovely as I'm sure it is. But that sounds like a fucking cool job.

I can forward an email with more details if anyone's interested.

Can you forward it to my profile addy, Jon. I'm not really interested, but I have a few people who might be.

I have a friend who's dream is to become the Kraft archivist.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jon! I saw on facebook that you're friends with Emily, who I went to high school with! Small world... Or possibly just small neighborhood.

Emily whose birthday was yesterday? Crazy! I'll probably see her tonight and say you said "hi"!
