Willow ,'Chosen'
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.
Pitchfork and Peanuts - ganked from Datapanik's LJ.
David, Annie Ross was on Fresh Air last Friday (I think.) I'd link to it but am having trouble getting into the site. Thought you might be interested.
Cool! Thanks - yeah, I'm a fan of Annie. Also she's had a really interestiong life.
I wonder if Combustible Edison has officially disbanded?
Effectively, they have. Michael's been living in L.A. for a few years now. Last I heard from him, he had a couple of band projects going on, and none of them were Combustible Edison.
I'm up to season three of Homicide. It's not as good as The Wire, but not much is.

I have to confess, I've never seen it (my mom loves it though). I recognized him from various TV things and his great role in the horrible movie, Duets.
I didn't want to be all "you're a movie star!!" while he was with his family, but if I had, I would have told him he sings a beautiful version of "Freebird."
He's a bad-ass actor. I'm surprised he hasn't been in more things.

By your aesthetic criteria (not just your gut favorites) what makes your Best List, Corwood?
The Wire
The Office
....
I'd like to say Woody Strode, but unfortunately I look more like Strother Martin.
Wait, wouldn't that make your "partner" L.Q. Jones rather than Jack Elam?
Buffista Music III: Bach in Black
No.(And it causes me physical fucking injury, um, okay, *another* one, to admit that of a series with FrankenTim, the Munchkin, and Kay in it.) But it it totally true...broader canvas. Politics...no black-hat bad guys. Very little censoring...what are they gonna do next year, with the FCC sure to get a hard-on for them? So to speak. In cop talk, if you attack somebody personally like they might, you have a hard-on for them if you make busting them your mission. Very jealous of the Braugher encounter, but I would think I would say something smart and probably look like a dumbass. To meet the new language standards, Jimmy goes aphasic. I saw DW in something PG-13 once and it felt like that anyways without "Fuck *me*" and stuff. They did have a whole scene composed of "Fuck." and "Motherfucker" once. Because Simon's idol on BPD said one day cops will have their own language of just those words.
OK, lessee.
Best TV shows (not in order, 'cause that would take too much time and hurt too much):
