I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

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

What?!? *Hec*, buy a CD?!? Surely not!

That's all the mock you got? Hey, I consider it a public service to alert people to the existence of a new SCotS CD. Surely no band has ever given such consistant pleasure while trumpeting the virtues of barnyard animal sex, eating dirt, or getting "likkered up and lacquered down."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That's all the mock you got?

Yes. We're running low on Mock tonight, but I can offer you some Vitriol if you like; that's just been harvested.

No, no, I wouldn't want you to waste your preciouis vitriol on me when you've got bosses and co-workers who deserve it.

I want points for being Most Musically Clueless Person of All Time

No, that would be me.

I think I'm the last lone person on Earth to buy CDs to listen to music. I had a few gift certs to Borders so bought and am enjoying:

Verve Remix 2 Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Adiemus

I wanted to get The Green Pajamas Looking Through Glass Colored Roses, but didn't want to spent that much $, also, couldn't listen to any of the songs first on Borders bar-code-scanning-listening device.

You can't go wrong with that "Best of" collection. Are you familiar with their stuff at all? My favorite songs by them are very Rubber Soul/Revolver influenced.

No, I'd never heard the sound of any of them. I bought them based on print articles (mostly/all? by Ken Tucker) that made them sound like something I'd like. And I do. Wait, except Adiemus - consuela has a Farscape vid set to the first song and I flipped over it. Had to buy the CD to have the song.

Ann, that's a ferret.

You don't know how much I spent at Tower on New Year's Eve. Only half of which was covered by the gift card Hubs gave me for Christmas.

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

tina, you're welcome! Always glad to help my fellow slackers. :-)

My problem with this CD is that one of the tracks is actually just the first 56 seconds of a much longer track on the original CD, and I don't have headphones that plug directly into the CD burner (yes, I'm using an actual CD burner, not a computer program), so I have to guess at the correct moment to hit Stop. It's ever so maddening.

On the other hand, I'm currently grooving to Alicia's mix. Do you know, I haven't actually heard "Hey Ya" yet? Yes, it's true; I am an Outkast Ignoramus.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Not the only one.

If I only had a brain...

Three.

I just bought Putumayo's "French Café" compilation Cd. I can see a lot of French chansons in my future. Barbara, mmm.

Can anybody, anywhere, ever have been hipper than Jane Birkin? After whom, among other things, the Hermès Birkin bag was named?
