I like it. A lot. Excellent summertime music, arriving just in time for the very end of summer, huh? Bummer. Pretty much the most pure-pop thing that they've ever done. And that's a good thing. Like The Raspberries with sitars and tablas.

Cash Cow - rBGH http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mjmnqkzzazd RIYL: early Uncle Tupelo, Hüsker Dü, Naked Raygun, Buzzcocks, Replacements (I guess) Recorded with Dave Trumfio and Mike Hagler at KingSize Sound Labs, Chicago (where Wilco recorded a good deal of Summerteeth). Dig in. If you haven't heard my old punk side, it sounds nothing like anything else I've presented to y'all recently. Hope you like it.

Pitchfork credibility = serious drop.

I am a huge fan of The Move, and Roy Wood, in particular. I am looking at picking up this box set: Any of y'all have it? Any other fans?

One of my favorite songs. And, the lyrics are certainly better than anything Jim Morrison penned: The silent night has turned to a night of fear With windows howling wind into your ear You listen to the spirits far behind These things you hear are too much for your mind The bell strikes and your spine chills like the grave The chill that turns your blood from red to grey You know that with these things you see and hear The silent night has turned to a night of fear Image on your bedroom wall Shadows marching in the hall Just about to flip your mind Just about to trip your mind Just about

Went there yesterday, with no intention of buying anything. Just went to kill some time. Left with a book for Sharon, a comic book for Ethan, a CD for Cary, and Season 1 of SCTV on DVD for the family. Bless that store to hell.

I got a phone call from my one friend who works there at 1:00 on Friday: he was let go. So, even though my other friend is still there, it just didn't feel right, so we cancelled our reservations for that evening. We wound up here instead: VIE Had a 7-course chef's tasting that was pretty outstanding. A 3-hour meal is a nice thing to enjoy every now and then. And, as the restaurant is in a sleepy little suburb, we didn't have to pay for parking and all that. Hell, we could've walked there, if we didn't want to go out for a little while longer after the meal. One of these days, we'll get

Been there many times. Usually for lunch -- Bento box. I live nearby, too. But work far, far away. If you haven't been there, by all means, check it out. We're addicted to the mango smoothies w/ pearl tapioca, too.

Yep.

It's really like a food court, but with only Asian stores. The Yu-Ton Dumplings are the best. Oh, and I am usually the only non-Asian there. A good sign. I love this place! The International Mall in Westmont Awesome.
