I like the way you think.

Black Sabbath - Master of Reality. (Seriously, shit would rock.)

Then we would already have solar-powered flying cars, and the ice caps would be largely intact! We might all be speaking Farsi, though.

Savoy Truffle.

Facebook is kind of a bucket of shit as an application, but it at least restrains people's urges to make things all sparkly.

Ditto. Does Hey Bulldog count as obscure? I mean, Gomez covered it.

I will never accept a Pax Jordana. Ewing Regnat!

If the government is not going to pay for abortions, the least it should do is pay for rubbers.

Jordan can eat a bowl of f and get genital warts in his stomach for all I care, but the man was the best that's ever been, so none can refute his smack-talk.

Ah, so Ballad ... and Old Brown Shoe were only stereo?

Sadly, yes, according to the NYT. http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/13/jim-carroll-poet-and-punk-rocker-is-dead/

True, but I continue to be in awe of both her and her sister's anatomy below the waist. What thighs! Damn!

I went to a 9/11 ceremony on Friday at a park alongside the Hudson River. It was a blustery day - the river was choppy. Seagulls shat upon the rocks, as they do on 9/11, Dec. 7. Sept. 17 and every other rotten day in American history and the good days too. As a ceremony, it was a bit bleh - there was some mediocre bagpiping, a weird benediction from a priest with a strong baritone. And when they presented the U.S. and New York State flags, the kid carrying it kept banging the top of the flagpole against the roof of the pavilion where the ceremony took place. It was all a little disorganized an

That would be extremely awesome, and kisses to them for including the Bangs essay.

Mutual funds are the ones that hold stock in corporations; I wonder of Fidelity et al. get any shit for investing in companies their 401(k) holders disapprove of? In other news, I just got back from the local "tea party" protest. Anti-Obama/health care/government types outnumbered their counterprotesting foes by about 10-1. Everybody was pretty well-behaved, though there were some f-words and flipped birds. Pics to follow after I get some wonton soup.

I was a little startled to see on the evening news last night that the Taliban has gone back to controlling 80 PERCENT of Afghanistan. I think the U.S. military should be used extremely judiciously, but when it is used, I very much prefer it to succeed, thanks.

Jesus, you could do this thing FOREVER.

"I'll Fight" at the coffee store in Kingston.

They did to me, too, then I plugged my iPod into a pair of cheap-shit computer speakers and they sound fantastic.

A little bit, yeah. I would put Brandy third, behind MLFR and Sammy Johns' Chevy Van, which is like a documentary of the '70s.

Hey, we here have a rep for telling like it is. You should see my editorial this week - I actually ripped some of it off from a VC post I made in one of the health care threads.

A perfect piece of pop music. I am fond of "Moonlight Feels Right" by Starbuck. That song encapsulates the essence of the '70s like no other.

I would, but the budget does not allow, so I gotta do it myself.

DO IT!!!
