McCarthy is certainly sometimes a difficult read. He is one of the greats. The Road...damn. That book really moved me. "There is no God and we are his prophets" “Where men cant live gods fare no better. You’ll see. It’s better to be alone. So I hope that’s not true what you said because to be on the road with the last god would be a terrible thing. ... Things will be better when everybody’s gone.” LOL...understatement of the year. Yeah...East Texas has a way of making us a bit...off

Well...technically it is AND it isn't. But I didn't see anybody lower a shoulder on those plays at the plate.

Wow. Plus the Mets are sending $5.5 million to Milwaukee to pay the remainder of K Rod's salary this year. I wonder how long before they deal Reyes

Watching these videos shows me a couple of things: 1. The Beatles could have toured behind their later albums (if they had any interest in doing so) with a little bit of augmentation (a keyboard/guitar player and a bass/guitar player) 2. I now know what will be played in concert halls as "Classical" Music 100 years from now.

Reason # 43 to hate teh Yankees 84 players were chosed to the all-star team. 79 players made the trip to Phoenix. Of the Five that were choses, four were Yankees.

Seems like nobody told Joey Bats this was an exhibition game...

Chris Berman is the biggest ass whip on television. The camera angles that EPSN chose were horrendous. But I loved watching Gonzalez and Cano slug it out.

Baseball nerds' favorite night of the year...HOME RUN DERBY

We are prominently linked on Wilcoworld Wilco/Community?

The Calfornia Stars in the song probably doesn't refer only to "Movie" Stars and the brilliant points of light. It is also a classical quilting block. That Woody Guthrie. Simple and complex all at the same time

Too soon. WAY too soon.

Grown up music

1. I was killing time looking for some new tunes in a Best Buy in Arlington Texas. I'm guessing it was in April 1995. Best Buy used to have stations in the CD section where you could listen to selected new releases. I had heard of Uncle Tupelo but really didn't know where to start, so I had never picked up a CD by them. The little Bio Blurb on the audition stand said that infamous bio opener "Rising from the ashes of Uncle Tupelo...". So I listened to a few seconds of I Must be High and the rest, as they say, is history. 2. I did't go to very many of any kind for a number of years, the only

You know, Wilco seems to be about musical connections and relationships with like minded artists. Pat Sansone played on North Hills. I would love to see Wilco and Dawes do some shows together. Just scatteshooting

I was going to make all kinds of snarky comments about anal retentiveness, obsessive compulsive disorder, but I decided to play instead. People do love lists.

Link?

If I had to guess, I would imagine that it is simply a song he really, really likes.

Heh... This band has lived with more idiotic labels than any band should ever have to.
