I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just signed up for a two week trial at emusic. I still have about 30 songs I can download. Anyone have any suggestions?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Perkins-- post some of your faves and then the collective music-mind can come up with a list of songs to round things out.

ION-BF is reviewing the new Stereophonics CD, so we've been listening to to it for the last few days. Very nice stuff.

Are you ready to be strong?

Xposted in Technology:

I want to get some new earphones for my iPod--the ones that come w/ it hurt my ears after a while. What are good ones to get?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Rio, I got $10 cheapies at a local Radio Shack. They have hooks or clips that go behind the ears and anchor the phone in the ear -- so I can turn down the volume and still hear comfortably. So far, they work far better than the original phones that come with the iPod.

Don't know about long-lasting because I only got them a couple months ago.

Huge congratulations to Jim & Penny & Seth John! Heck yeah!

Happy anniversary to Hec & JZ!

Hi, Rio!

I'm very excited this morning, as all the exclamation points would attest. However, I'm listening to a tropicalia mix, which helps.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am officially giving up all hope of the first CD exchange completing.

Could DX, Steph, David, Corwood, Jon B, Kate, meara, tina, Anne W, Gandalfe, Lyra Jane & Alicia send me copies of their mixes?

If you don't have my address - email me at my profile address.

Thanks.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

Oh dear. I don't have a copy of my mix. Nor do I think I kept the track list. Sorry, msbelle!

I've been getting a package of burns together for you including my mix. I could also send you mixes by DX, Steph, David, Jon B, Tina, Gandalfe, and Lyra Jane's mixes. I don't have mixes by Kate, Meara, Anne, or Alicia. Warning: As DX and Sue can attest, this process may take an indefinite time. On the other hand, I'm almost finished copying everything, anyway.

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

One of our writers had an exchange with an editor at Da Capo Press and pimped our names. The editor replied:

I've got a copy of 'Bubblegum is the Naked Truth' right here in my office. Great book, feel free to send the authors my way.

Sweet, glorious pimpage.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
