that's my learnin' for the day! my finnish lineage thanks you

i think you may have just made those misery porn commercials tolerable… i mean, a pound full of helpless, hopeful randy jacksons is also sad, but prefereble to the reality. i'm calling this one a win.

there's also that dog bite website (not linking, fuck her) run by a nasty woman who has made it her personal mission to bias any gullible asshole out there against pitties - her "facts" have been proven lies several times over, but of course once some people read something labeled a fact they don't ever question it,…

my pibble was posted as a "boxer mix" on the adoption site. there was a picture, so i knew right away what she was (and i'd be shocked if she had any boxer dna at all), and she is the sweetest little mush ever. she might try to eat your chihuahua, but loveslovesLOVES people.
if folks would just educate themselves and…

now you've done it.

damn fine album, plus burning up and physical attraction

this album is so good… it's definitely the one madonna album i can listen to all the way through and then again. her others tend to fall into the filler trap for me (minus the killer singles, of course), and i really miss when her work had some weight to it. i wish so badly that she would (could?) create songs as…

dear jessie is the only one i never connected with on this album, even lil me just found it too… cutesy, is the best way to describe it.
as for the patchouli, i'd have to ask my sister, my tape was just a copy of hers. i never knew it was packaged with incense until now.
the more you know!

very, very jealous… had i not just spent money i shouldn't have on sleater-kinney tickets when i heard about stevie, i'd be going too. love this man. hope the show is killer.

just about to say the same, re: the detached retinas. i'm wondering if it's a case of something that cannot/could not ever be fixed, or just the lack of that technology at the time

the fuck?? i've never heard this, can't wait to see what i find though.

paranormal pepper jack-tivity!

i had the barbie costume too one year, and she-ra another. i don't remember if lil' me was aware of the ridiculousness of wearing a flimsy plastic bag with a logo on it as a costume (plus having to dress weather-appropriately underneath… surely she-ra wore sweatsuits on her off days, right?), but i do remember those…

hate-likes, for both of you.

MAKE ME!

well as long as he's got his health, his millions of dollars, his solid gold house and his rocket car, he's got everything he needs.

eek… i may look into that (with lowered expectations, thanks for the warning!) to satisfy the intrigue

i see what you did there.

i think my favorite today is "that's how strong my love is", but it's just splitting hairs to try and rank a lot of his songs.
and i've been meaning to track down a remastered collection, i should get on that.

i had to seek out live at the harlem square club after someone here, i forget who, raved about it. i love soul music, but don't have the knowledge of it i should, and wasn't prepared for the sheer greatness of that performance. when it came to sam cooke i only really knew "you send me", which is still so lovely and…
