The cover of this week's New Yorker has an illustration of Ray Charles on the $10 bill. I think that's the best idea ever.
Sure beats the shit outta Ronnie Raygun being on the $10.
Brother Ray for the ten today!!!
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

I'm listening to Jon's show AIFG!! (Though I had to try three streams before I found one that wasn't full.)
Congrats on 20 years Jon!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Congratulations, Jon! I'm listening, too.

Me three.
yawn. (Indicating my not awakeness, not the level of excitement I have for Jon's show. Which for this early, is pretty high.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Carp. Both high-bandwidth streams are full, and our firewall is blocking the low-bandwidth ones.
I had this problem before. That's what I get for not living on the east coast, or not getting to work at 7:00.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Not able to listen to Jon's show, but wishing I could. Rock on.

Happy 20 years, Jon! I can't listen today, but I'll make sure to listen next week.
I've been on a CD-buying spree lately. Got Loretta Lynn's Van Lear Rose, which is *gorgeous* and plain-spoken and keeps going through my head; Franz Ferdinand, which is disposable but fun (I love "Michael," which is one of the Gayest Songs Ever); Modest Mouse's Good News For People Who Love Bad News, on which I seem to love half the songs and find the other half really annoying; and the Long Winters one with "Shapes" and "Cinnamon" on it, which is not as good as they were live but is still pretty spiffy.

I have 10 Marc Almond albums, half a dozen Pet Shop Boys albums, the complete works of Erasure, Pansy Division and the Boystown Gang who'd like to discuss that with you...
