Huh. Apparently, Arthur Kane didn't even know he had leukemia. He went to the doctor with "flu-like symptoms" and that's when they diagnosed him. (This is also from Yahoo.)
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Feh. Not liking the new All-Music Guide. It's freakin' 2 pt. type. If I wanted that I'd go to Pitchfork.
In other annoying news, I bought the new Fiery Furnaces record. Brought to work to listen to it. It fell between my desk and my wall. The desk is not moveable - it's bolted in. It's gone, and yet it is inches from my foot. Bother.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Hec, can you get a yardstick in there? Or a long piece of cardstock?

Apparently somebody with building services has just such a special stick since a few lawyers have lost their briefs down there (so to speak) in that nether realm.

And here I thought briefs were supposed to cover the nether realms, not lose them.

Is bolting the desk in a security thing? Or an earthquake thing?

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

Ta da! And building services rescues Blueberry Boat from office furniture purgatory.
Mostly, I am loading Tom Waits onto my computer today. The Frank Trilogy and Alice. I am now seeing Alice as a natural bookend to the Frank Trilogy, with One From The Heart one the other side.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
I am confused. Is the album Blueberry Boat, or the band? I read that review and it sounded either really great or something that would be excruciating to listen to.
