Cappuccino Fudge Blitz:
I'm not really into Blue Bunny but this flavor has a lot of quality things going on for it...
"Coffee flavored ice cream with White Chocolate Cremes, Mocha Espresso Brownies and Chocolate Fudge Swirl"
What I really need to get a hold of is some of that Steven Colbert Ben and Jerry's!

Is VC launching an invasion into Radiohead territory?
On Summerteeth, Jeff Tweedy was experimenting with electronic pop for the sake of revealing its emptyness.My two cents:
B.S.

FYI, there is one group there that pisses me off...the supposed fan/idiot who ruined a concert and got punched by Tweedy last year decided to make a facebook group about the incident, complete with a link to the pitchfork article and the youtube video documenting his couple minutes of fame. I suspect he did it to continue to bring some further undeserved attention to himself. Idiot.
That's ridiculous.

I've joined the gang but I have no idea why. Word up, homeskillet. This is the first time I've bothered to log in to facebook since I joined months ago. Literally.
Also, before I even noticed all the Malkmusness of socbret's avatar/sig, I was just noticing that the little facebook logo guy is a little Stephen Malkmus looking. Possibly Jonathan Richman looking as well.

My two-year old sends her congrats. Upon seeing the picture over my shoulder she says, "Aaaaaw a little baby! It's a baby, Mom! She's so cuuuute!"
Congratulations!

I too love Eef. Amaranthine, I can send you some Clem Snide if you like.
Llynn, I wish we had gotten to meet at that infamous Springfield show. We seem to share similar tastes, as I've noticed from some of your other posts. Do you like Mountain Goats? Admittedly his voice isn't for everyone, but I love his lyrics, and I'm hooked on "Get Lonely".
I do like Mountain Goats but I haven't listened to too much because I'm bad about not listening to music that everyone gets into before I do. If I find out about some cool musician on my own, I get all kinds of into it. If friends try to turn me onto something, I usually don't listen to it as much even if I do like it an awful lot. I don't know why I do that. It's really pretty lame of me. I should probably just give in and listen to more Mountain Goats! For now, I know I really like "Song for Dennis Brown"

"Tigermilk" and "If you're feeling Sinister" are my favorite albums, but they are generally excellent imho.
ditto this.

Did you see that you can enter w/out purchasing?
The whole vinyl back catalog prize is mine! It's mine I tell you!!!

Q: You are going to go to the concert of The Police when they pass by your city?
A: No.
Q (the second one about Arcade Fire): Hello Jeff, 2 questions: gustría to know to me if you have had the opportunity to now listen to the ARCADE FIRE that, with reason, as much is spoken of them. And if thus it has been, what they have seemed to you?
A: I believe that they sound like Dixies Midnight Runners!

I picked this one up at the infamous Springfield show last October. It's an 18-24 months. My daughter has worn it a couple of times. There's water on it in the picture (maybe that's the reason for the hand on the mouth, "uh oh!" look) but it's actually in really good shape. If you pm me your address, I'll send it to you free of charge. I'm always up for a little good karma.
Edited to add: My daughter doesn't really have a mullet...she's just got some kind of bad hair day going on in this picture.

In my house, we like to say J5 became J4 when Cut Chemist left and we were never big fans of J4 anyhow. I wonder...because there were 6 of them to begin with, did they decide they were better off without Cut Chemist because then there were five of them?

If it's not too late to add my little recommendations...
I like to suggest Clem Snide and Eef Barzelay (of Clem Snide) every chance I get and it's right up your alley judging by your post.
Check out Eef Barzelay's "Ballad of Bitter Honey." It's absolutely awesome. He's got the best voice and the lyrics are clever and interesting (great for just skimming the surface of but they can go deep if you decide you want them to.) Just really awesome gentle but powerful stuff. And he's adorable, so that never hurts. At one point his song (via his group, Clem Snide) "Moment in the Sun" was the theme for the tv show, "Ed."
-
Right now, I'll go with (no particular order):
You Are My Face
At Least That's What You Said
Theologians
Late Greats
Sunken Treasure
Even though it means absolutely nothing because at any given moment I like pretty much everything Wilco.

It's also a trade-off that Yahoo is not alone in making. To comply with government requirements, Google's China search engine blocks access to sites the government deems objectionable. Microsoft launched its Chinese blogging service in 2005 with filters that prohibited sensitive words such as freedom and democracy in blog titles. And Cisco supplies internet backbone equipment the Chinese government uses in the so-called Great Firewall that shields citizens from websites about Tibet and the Tiananmen Square massacre.
That's insane. I imagine there is a whole language of code used by people who wish to speak their minds and have to find alternative words to do so.

I'm listening to my Norton reissue rekkid of The Sonics' "Here are the Sonics!!!" just now. It's some really great 60s garage stuff. The Wiki says Jimi was influenced by them but I feel that's only a small fragment in the massive pile of reasons to listen to them. The album has "Good Golly Miss Molly" and "Have Love Will Travel" on it but I highly recommend "Strychnine." It's pure rocking awesomeness.

My honey is also named Ryan and he makes super mixes and imaginary soundtracks as well! Maybe there is something to naming your kids Ryan. Ryan is to mix tape as Loretta* is to awesome. They just go hand in hand.
*Oh! What a coincidence! That just happens to be my name!
(Now who is going to challenge me on which of us is the best at being awesome?)
(I think it'll probably be a draw. This board just permeates awesome.)

I'm going to put this on my fridge at home.
I'm going to get a tattoo of this thread to show my love for it. Believe!

How slim are the chances they'll return to Springfield, Missouri? I'm guessing pretty slim. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed all year and hope anyhow.

Oh, I recognize the illustrated Tweedy. I'm familiar with the show. (And I'm shocked and appalled that you'd think I would not recognize it, sir )
The Malkmus looking facebook thing I was referring to is this:
which upon closer inspection isn't really all that Malkmussy but is still a little Jonathan Richmanish.
