That's the kind of talk a father gives to his son? Funniest post I've read all day, btw. Kevin

I declare that to be: AWESOME!

I postulate that if they had played "Bury the Hatchet" in Charlotte, maybe some minds would have changed... but we'll never know, will we?

I dug up some info on this Benjy Ferree, and he seems like a pretty interesting character, considering the arc his life has taken. I trust Wilco's judgment on this choice of opener. They've never disappointed me before. Now some of you might argue that Low would be evidence to the contrary, but I happened to like 'em, even though they gave me some heavy, heavy eyelids at the Charlotte, NC show. K

Is this Nels II? I remember reading somewhere about your wee one taking the fish for a walk or something like that. Kevin PS: Like the new avatar!

following Loretta's link, I got all sidetracked on these little buggers, on sale for 19.99 (20% off) Tiny Micro Fly R/C Hovering UFO There's even a video of 'em en masse. Ho ho ho, Kevin

Just took a peek-a-loo at your blog and enjoyed what I read so far. Welcome to VC and I'll pour you a virtual beer. Back to werk, Kevin

I was exactly where you were at, about a year ago or so when I first heard TTRH. I don't have XM or Sirius, but have been downloading the weekly shows and listening to them on the iPod. He's got some great jokes, too! Kevin

I haven't heard the official release yet, only the 9 song leak version, but for what it's worth*, it's not the train wreck I was expecting. I'm glad Dr. Pepper isn't going to wait 10 years to send me my coupon, just a matter of weeks! * one free 20 oz Dr. Pepper

Thanks BrianJeremy!

Nice effect. I've always liked "full-frame" prints-- this digi-effect sure makes it easier to achieve the desired look. Cheers, Kevin

After staring at the same avatar for years now, I decided I'd let the DJ Cat rest and let the Dude dance. "The Big Lebowski" is one of my favorite movies, and since I often "just drop in" to VC when there's a lull at work, I thought it was quite apropos. Kevin

Oops... I just

Back when I was working retail at Camelot Music, I remember a girl that I thought was pretty hip suggesting that I listen to this album called "Bone Machine." She said she'd just been to a concert by this guy called Tom Waits and that he had this really gravelly voice that sounded like he smoked and drank too much. Maybe b/c I didn't partake in either of those pastimes (at the time--I was just 17 or so) the description didn't do anything for me, and I never sought out Tom Waits' music. It wasn't until I'd hit a low patch in 1997 that I picked him up after hearing him on a film soundtrack.

All I know is that I have 115 lbs. of spoiled shark meat b/c I can't help but to peep when *not really.

I'm not a big Star Trek fan at all, but the trailer I saw during last night's "Fringe" episode totally won me over on this new film. I'm not gonna camp out or put on Vulcan ears but I would def. like to see this on the big screen. Kevin

Moses, you just spoiled my shark.

Is that "Booger" from Revenge of the Nerds? Classic.

VW has been selling affordable passenger-car diesels for years decades. I think FORD deserves to go belly-up for such short-sightedness.

...at least, until it jumps the shark.

Love her. I think I first heard her when I heard OP8, which was essentially Calexico/Giant Sand with Lisa Germano. There was one song that just slayed me: "Crackling Water." It still does, in fact. I need to pick that album up... my old roommate was the one that had the hard copy of this one. Kevin

see the Urban Dictionary

Color me meh on this one. kevin

Hehe. It does look like him if I squint like this kevin
