From my friend Ted:
I'm at my desk like any other day, and I hear a band outside. It's not uncommon--bands play on the quad at Columbia all the time--thought the timing seemed a little off. I thought I recognized the beat--but I didn't know the song. Then I looked outside. I put the beat with the image--"that's U2!!!!" I sprinted down the stairs and into the street. They were filming a new video for their how to dismantle an atomic bomb. The band was on a tractor trailer driving down Broadway. I ran with the them (and throngs of other fans, happy-struck by their good fortune) from 116th St. to 110th.
He took some pictures, too. If he says it's okay then I'll link to them.
Good god, that's awesome. I would type exclamation points with ones interspersed, if I didn't fear giving away my cool exterior.
Oh, fuck it.
OMG that is so cool!!!!!111!!!!!1 I am filled with the jealous!

Right the fuck on! Doesn't it look good? I think it is a pleasing object.

It is a good-looking book, I agree. The colour is very appealing. I was home for lunch so I only had time to put a bookmark in it and put it on the top of the reading stack (so.very.OCD), but I'll get a look at it again in a few hours.
any updates on CD exchange mailings or receivings?

I've got a mix for Angus here at work, ready to go out when I get two other things together for mailing (Teppy's EC tape, and erika's present). I'd say they were going out this week except that seems ambitious on top of my interview, day job and cooking Thanksgiving for six.
I am CD-less. The last CD I had was Hayden's, which I sent to Plei a month or so ago.
DX, I have nothing new to send you. Boo hoo.
I haven't seen a CD in months. Alas.
