‘Too idealistic’ may be an impossibility but it at least has the potential to reach a much higher level than ‘Why don’t we just settle for this?’. And from that higher level ‘too idealistic’ may not look like such an impossibility. I just finished rereading Pratchett and Gaiman’s Good Omens:

Not gonna lie, it came up on predictive text as I was fumbling with it. Tipitina’s was definitely it, now that you mention it. Grand American city, everyone needs to go at least once. No need to go to Bourbon Street, either. Cheers.

My only brush with Michael Stipe was when he was a surprise back up singer for Patty Smith for a few songs at a venerated club on Tchoupitoulas during Jazz Fest 2010 in NOLA. Deepwater Horizon blew up on the Gulf Coast that week, and I learned that renting a bicycle is the best way for the able-bodied to get around in…

I’ve always liked “Clock Radio” by Greg Kurstin, the Geggy of Geggy Tah.

Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war, in 1944.

Work training has reintroduced me to the gauntlet that is the Baltimore to Washington commute. On that note, here’s one from the buzz bin.

Best album of the 80s in my opinion, and R.E.M.’s best ever, which is saying something because they made at least 10 GREAT albums.

I’ve been mostly just kibitzing lately. First I’ve been doing some major entry of data into the tag portion of my MP3 music files and then the murders in South Carolina were depressing enough to remove much interest in noodling around with music on DUAN. I was dumb enough to believe back in the 1960’s that by now we…

I can’t believe that Lifes Rich Pageant has virtually disappeared from the pop cultural landscape. Time, huh?

“Frank, freak me out; freak me out, Frank!”

I haven’t seen The Cops on DUAN lately, so here’s “So Lonely”.

Incubus - Wish You Were Here

He said Peyton makes them an automatic playoff contender but that they probably aren’t winning a Super Bowl in the next two years. As a Denver resident, that sounds about right to me. They have a *shot*, but they also looked incredibly mediocre the last 8-9 games and are one Peyton injury away from turning into the…

I know, I have Juris Doctor after my name, too. I just thought it was slightly amusing.

That suit looks like a morning after a wedding, late-for-my-flight special. Don’t they have an apartment in the city? Did he sleep in the car on the way over? Was the jacket in the glove box?
