Rock and Roll All Night

To quote a different Bill Murray movie, but not Murray's character, "Lighten up, Francis."

Saw them open for the Old 97's once. I was pretty impressed. Good harmonies, good energy. Unfortunately it doesn't look they're coming close to the midwest.

Think simple supply/demand. The fed pumps billions into the Econ to keep it afloat, but what's the true value do that money? Let's hope inflation stays under control, but I'm not holding my breath.

Just because Sparky had an unnatural obsession with the fed doesn't mean that it's incorrect to point out that the fed's pumping $$ into the economy is responsible, to a large degree, for the increase in the stock market and that our economy is still a house of cards ready to collapse.

Bill Murray follows his muse. Sometimes it leads to fame and popularity, sometimes it leads to beautiful art, sometimes it confounds us all. It's his muse, we cannot question, just appreciate. Also, my brother once observed that he was playing essentially the same role in Lost in Translation that he had played in Meatballs. A jaded, but caring presence in the life of a lost, sad, and confused young person. Brilliant!

Just curious exactly what you mean by this? Do you expect a collapse of the economy that will be blamed on Republicans? ADemocratic takeover of the house in 2014? Something else?

Jonathan Richman, whom I've wanted to see since 1986 or so. Damn!

Not sayin' I'm for term limits. Back in '90s I thought we should have them, then the '94 elections proved incumbency wasn't a guarantee to a job. BUT, I do think the influence of lobbyists would be diminished because they wouldn't always be running for re-election and there just wouldn't be as much time to foster the lobbyist/politician relationship. I could be completely wrong and the lobbyists may be able to influence over a bunch of amateurs. Anyway, it's going to require a constitutional amendment and that's just not going to happen because the anti forces would remind people in every

Not really relevant to the sport, but Joe Mauer's wife is pregnant with twins and that's just fucking cool.

In other news, I've got my ticket, I AM seeing him 3/1. Anyone seen him recently? I'm a huge fan of his 80s work, in particular Rockin' and Romance, which is hard to come by today. My guess is there won't be much of that or the Modern Lovers stuff.

Misread.

I agree with the first sentence, but couldn't imagine listening to it during a workout. Lots of Wilco tunes in my running playlist, but Less Than You Think is not one of them. Pretty sure Late Greats has been on it, though.

Please read this, get outraged, and take action. Goddamn do we need transparency and a true free market in healthcare. The author was on the Daily Show and Charlie Rose this week. http://healthland.time.com/2013/02/20/bitter-pill-why-medical-bills-are-killing-us/

I'll start the bidding at

This, fundraising aside. These assholes thrive on the message that there is no such thing as bad publicity. I do admire that kid, about 10 years old, whose mom took a picture of him near a protest holding a sign saying "God hates no one".

Funny the Westerberg connection. At a show once, I thought it was about how I view(ed) Bob Mould.

Seeing the movie usually makes me think not such nice thoughts about Bennett. I really wish I'd seen the band while he was in it. I love his guitar work and his contributions to the band are beyond question, but he truly annoys me during that whole mixing board scene. I haven't watched it since he died, so those thought might be tempered out of respect for the dead.

My point is I think that that's photshopped bullshit. It's pretty obvious when you look at the font. Maybe it was intended to be viewed as nothing else, just a joke.

I just googled "russian meteor global warming" and didn't find any conspiracy theories. What connection could be drawn?

Cattle theft?

This Republican agrees.

I hope to see him on 3/1
