'War Stories'


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.

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

Kate, I have procured for you a secret history by The Divine Comedy. ($15.98) I probably need your current address too.

Woohoo! Thank you so much! Insent with my address.

I finally bought the Cardinal re-issue online yesterday.

The Decemberists just announced a mess of new tour dates for the fall and they're selling a limited number of discounted tickets to all the shows. Sadly, I'll be in Paris during the New England dates (I know -- woe is me!).

Up with the sun

I'm trying to decide whether I need to see them a fifth time. Oh, probably...

I can't even.

Thanks, Jon. I grabbed tix for the T.O. show.

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

Congratulations Joe and DW!

Dammit, Joe, Why can't I find you?

Also, The Decemberists are on Conan next Tuesday night. Set yer TiVos!

It's just not the same without the photo. And strictly speaking I don't have a Master's in American Studies: I have a non-specific Master's in Liberal Arts to go along with my non-specific Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts. Had my plans worked out 10 years ago I would have a non-specific Ph.D. in Liberal Arts, too. I can still picture my advisor at Villanova shaking his head and saying, "Don't do it. You'll never get a job. Just pick a department."

Excellent. By the way, I looked through the photo "album" and it seems to have been a wonderful wedding. Everyone looks very handsome or beautiful, whichever adjective is appropriate to their gender.
