Snerk. My condolences.
I haven't followed the team at all in years and years, so i don't even know why you're consoling me. It's just one of those things that gets burned into your brain in childhood if you grow up near Pittsburgh -- black + gold = Pirates or Steelers.

Just consoling you on the brain burn. Black and gold are perfectly lovely colours especially when not associated with Pittsburgh sports franchises. Much better to be colourwormed with, say, the Boston Bruins. Or Joshua Tree, with a nice little gold racing stripe and lettering.
Hmm. I've been thinking of an LCD monitor for my computer, but maybe I'd better go take a look at this iPod.
How fucking cool is this my fellow music geeks?
Our illustrator, Tom Neely, has a cafe press site with the book's interior illustrations on t-shirts and lunchboxes etc..
Dolly Parton, Swamp Dogg, X-Girl, Howlin' Wolf, Roy Wood, Paul McCartney, Space Ghost!
I've already been talking with the wife about getting the Roosevelt Franklin onesie for the upcoming critter. But secretly I want the Space Ghost Meets Sonny Sharrock hat.
I want the Yoko mug and the McCartney lunch box. Ha! Those are great!
I have made my executive decision to buy the U2 iPod. I'm going to go home tonight and make sure my computer can handle the upgrade to XP, and that my CD burner will still work with XP. Then tomorrow I'm heading to the Apple store where I can get the feel of a regular-sized iPod and see their weekly presentation on the iPod/iTunes.
Thanks for answering all my questions and feeding my desire for this piece of machinery!

Oooh - once you touch one you will just have to have it....
I'm fully expecting to want to buy one on sight, but will have to remind myself that I'm pre-ordering the U2 one instead.
...for the upcoming critter.
hayden, I had no idea. Congratulations! When is the release date?
Thanks, Fiona! February 18 is the projected release date. It's a little kicker!
We have been immersing ourselves in chanson, so I found some Chevalier in English. It was all silly novelty songs. (Including, of course, "If the nightingale could sing like you/They'd sing much sweeter than you do/'Cause you brought a new kind of love to me.")
I went out and bought a Chevalier album in French. ("Valentine"). Apparently he sang silly novelty songs in French, too. Chevalier: Silly Novelty Songs guy.
