If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Book ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'


Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

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.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Anyone, huh? Count me in, if you're offering. Ya'll have peaked my interest.

OK, SA. DO you want them in MP3, or individual CDs? If MP3, I can throw in some other stuff, too . . . .

MP3 is fine. My profile addy is good. Thanks, man.

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

Velvet Tinmine seems to have spawned a competitor Glitter From the Litter Bin.

More insanely obscure glam singles including such titles as "Butch Things" and "Do You Like boys" and "Ride A Black Sheep." My favorite band name, though, is Edwina Biglet and the Miglets.

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

This is a really good comp - I think it's better than Velvet Tinmine which I wrote up for the book.

Heh. My iTunes says I have 6.1 days of 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.

My iTunes: 13 days 11 hours 39 minutes 11 seconds.

23.54 GB. 4964 songs.

1440 songs, 3.9 days, 5.78 gigs.

I'm feeling a little inferior here. But then I remember that most of my music collection is tied up in the nice little cases containing over one thousand cds now (I figured out I broke one thousand the other day; it was a bit whoa-inducing). So there.

SA, feel not inferior.

I have 3.2 days/4.99 GB/1233 songs as of right now.

I've had a bit of a retro weekend music-wise. At the music store on Sat. I heard Lovely by the The Primitives (jesus and mary chainish mixed with blondie type band from the late 80s) which I hadn't heard since - about 1989 - but it was one of my favorite albums back then and I still remembered every word. Came home and started pulling all kinds of tapes from jr. high out of my closet.

I keep thinking that three or four of the tracks on this Primitives album would be perfect covers. You know, if I had a band or any musical talent and wanted to do some covers.

There was a rather good article on Frank Black of the Pixies (which you all knew, but yay clarification) in this month's GQ. Really fascinating stuff: it didn't portray Black in an especially negative or positive light, which I liked. It seemed like it told the real story closer than most articiles would deign to.

Of course, reading the thing made me itch to get my hands on Frank Black albums, which I will be looking around for. The copy of Doolittle is never too far from my stero, thanks to Steph; I need to find more Pixies albums too.

Tina, did you ever do those DMB bootlegs?

Tina, did you ever do those DMB bootlegs?

Err. I burned em a while back but when I moved out of my office I'm not sure what happened to them. I totally crapped out on you SA - Sorry. I'll get on em.

I think you asked for a 2-disc 93 acoustic set by Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds. Is the address I sent the Uncle Tupelo CDs to all those months ago still good? If not, send your current one to my profile e-mail.

As far as the Pixies - you'll love Surfer Rosa. I've never liked anything more than a couple of Frank Black songs - I can't say I like any of his solo albums all the way through. I did give up and not even listen to his last one though - so it could be great for all I know.

edited to spell out an acronym I didn't even understand once I wrote it.

Up with the sun

Hey tina, which Death Cab for Cutie album would you recommend I start with? I was listening to "The New Year" and finally twigged to how good they were. (I had heard them before, but they were opening for the Dismemberment Plan and I kind of gave them the opening act treatment.)
