I have. TWICE!

I agree that Flea is a monster. But, I was not a big fan of the "afropop" of Think Tank, nor or Good/Bad/Queen. So, while I will (as I said) listen to this, I am still a little wary. Hopeful.

From AllMusic.com:

Hopefully PBS will run this show tonight, in honor... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AT6RLHXgeJ8

Another 10. Occasionally surly, but again... lots of interesting things to say.

10 A true legend. Very active, with a lot of interesting/cool things to say. Even if I don't always agree.

Coffee makes my pee smell good... like coffee!

This thread was started innocently enough, but has turned into quite the controversy generator. (Just started on my second cup of decaf.)

As a long-time decaf drinker (having switched over out of medical necessity -- I have MS), I can tell you with certainty, that it is just as much the ritual as the caffeine. That, and the comfort of the warmth and aroma. It's like when baseball players spit 3 times and grabs their crotch in a certain way before going up for an at-bat. That you may call superstition, but it is ritual, as well. That, in and of itself, does help many of us focus, methinks. But, of course, now I am getting into the psychology of coffee drinking, in general, and I haven't even had my morning decaf! Time to make th

Just a reminder that I'm playing in Chicago on Saturday, if you can make it.

11/2/10: Squ!re - "Times Change" Emitt Rhodes - "Pardon Me" Thelonious Monk - "In Walked Bud" Joe Pisapia - "I'm Coming Home Soon" Sebadoh - "Magnet's Coil" Martin Newell - "Track02 (untitled song?)" Cesaria Evora - "Avenida Marginal" Bloque - "El Hedor" Kinky - "Mirando de lado" Caribou - "Niobe"

I have some songs from my first album on there. Looks like some people have liked them. Yeah, it's not a bad site. Kinda like Pandora or Jango, but the interface isn't quite so listener-friendly.

This makes me so happy! http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=130870090

Was it the first album of theirs that you heard? Sometimes that makes a difference. As to me... it's not my "favorite", per se (that is any of three, depending upon my mood). But, I do think that Sorry Ma... is a great, fun record that is far too often overlooked. I frequently find myself singing: "Everybody gotta go Ot-to Ot-to Everybody gotta go Ot-to-TO!"

Let's see. My 20 or so favirites (it's hard to limit it to that few): Here Comes a Regular I Will Dare Swingin' Party Left of the Dial Can't Hardly Wait All Shook Down Alex Chilton Color Me Impressed Black-Eyed Susan Valentine Sadly Beautiful The Last Bastards of Young Within Your Reach Unsatisfied Androgynous Talent Show Achin' to Be Runaway Wind And, for the best of the trashy thrash: Run It Otto Shiftless When Idle

Def Leppard: "What do you want? "I want rock 'n roll!" The Chips/The Blues Brothers: "Whaddya want for nuttin'? Rrrrrubber biscuit!?!?!"

You can, in some neighborhoods. If it's not at your local Jewel, it shouldn't be too hard to track down. It's about $5 a can. And, since it's espresso grind, you don't have to use as much per cup.

That Café Bustelo is actually cheaper than Folgers. Give it a shot and then tell me what you think. I think that you'll be happy.

I like tea, too. Go start a tea thread. This is the coffee thread.

Can we get a little Aztec Camera love here? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5zioPOIFb4&feature=related GodDAMN, what a great song! :dancing

Okay, let's get this out of the way, I drink decaf. Okay? When seizures are an imminent threat, you do what you have to do. Still, when you don't drink it side-by-side with regular, you can't really tell much of a difference. Now that that's over with, I gotta say that I love my coffee. It's (obviously) not the caffeine that gets me going, it's the ritual, the aroma, the heat. Recently, after hearing some friends singing its praises, I picked up a can of this: Cheap, strong and delicious. And, I take my coffee like I take my women, black and in a really big cup! (had to get the joke out o

Wendy: That is one of my favorite 5 or so records of the 1990's. So great. Today, with me:
