Music For A Friend

HummidCedar has moved and now he is recommending music.

I have to take issue with his recommendation of The Decemberist's "Crane Wife". That album is a little on the sleepy side. It's not boring mind you, just slightly more narcotic than 3 Vicodin and a Scotch chaser.

I'm sure it's a very good album, but it should come with a warning sticker. One that makes it very clear that you should not operate any heavy machienery while the listening.

As a public service, I recommend that everyone check out the following:

• Scratch Track


• Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros


• Andrew Bird


• Nick Cave


• The White Stripes


• Son Volt's "The Search"


• Graham Parkers new one

This has been a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This was only a test. If this had been a real emergency you would have been instructed to arm yourselves listen to London Calling".

Peace.
we out.

Mad Attempts Communication With a Blond. Nearest Brunette Forced to Intervene.

Mad: Excuse me. The cup of decaf you just pored for me is tepid.

Blond (truly mystified): I'm sorry. What's wrong with your coffee?

Brunette (rolling eyes): It's cold. His coffee is cold.

Blond: Oh! (does nothing)

Brunette (Grating teeth, nostrils flaring ): Get him a fresh cup of coffee!

Blond (completely unphased): Sure!
