How Do You Work This Thing?

Hi.

Jennifer says I need a note from my mom.

Ummm. Would a shout-out from Snag do? I'll see what we can do. He might not return from his promotional tour, apparently he's falling apart starting with the teeth, he probably looks like Shane McGowan right now.

So. I'm on vacation and you guys let Scooter walk. That's why I can never go on vacation.

McCain is broke (so is america- no one's telling you) and you're not covered by health insurance, even if you think you are. The health insurance industry has a whole division of cubicle moles devoting every hour of every day to figuring out ways to not pay for your illnesses. Hey! Don't get mad at me! Look at the Republicans, who can't tolerate the idea of normal people getting something that will help them live in less stress and fear.

Speaking of Republicans, have you seen that they are sitting on the Senate, refusing to vote on any bill, including the one to allow our troops to recover in between deployments? Not only are they fulla shit when it comes to supporting the troops, they refuse to do the work of actually GOVERNING the country, preferring instead to throw a hissy fit and threaten to hold their breath until they turn blue, rather than work with and/or vote for Democratic legislation.

My solution? Let 'em turn blue. In fact, let's help 'em along by wrapping dry-cleaning bags around their fat, lying puckerheads.

So, now that I'm recharged and feel like railing about politics again, let's launch a FRT:



1. More Songs About Chocolate And Girls from the album "Here Comes The Summer - The Undertones Tribute Com" by The Vacant Lot Obscure cover by an obscure band of an old punk slab of summery crunchy goodness. Just as good as the title implies.
2. The Fall of the House of Usher: Arrival (Instrumental) from the album "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" by The Alan Parsons Project right into a prog rock snoozer. Kinda spacy, like an outtake from Dark Side Of The Moon.
3. I Could Be Happy from the album "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits Of The '80s, Vol. 4" by Altered Images More of that sugary summery lightweight new wave. I like it.
4. New Lace Sleeves from the album "Trust" by Elvis Costello & The Attractions More 80's new wave. Nice on this beautiful pre-weekend day. Plus, elvis is always a goodo.
5. A Sort of Homecoming from the album "Wide Awake in America" by U2 Back when they were cool.
6. Pedal from the album "The Singles" by Tullycraft
7. Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before from the album "Strangeways, Here We Come" by The Smiths Good mixing by this iTunes gadget, good stuff indeed. Morrissey's mopey tendencies were always offset by Marr's chiming and propulsive guitar work.
8. Movin' On- Uncle Tupelo from the album "20 More Explosive Fantastic Rockin' Mega Smash Hit Explosions!" by Various Artists - Pravda Records Heh. Alt-rock superstars doing a cheesy old TV tune. Back when they could have fun doing music, before they got all serious and Pitchfork-y critics cobags. Bet those super-serious boys in Wilco wish they could forget this one.
9. Just Like Heaven from the album "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me" by The Cure pretty much an 80's theme. Only ever exceeded by the Dino Jr cover.
10. Miles Away from the album "Goldfinger" by Goldfinger
11. Inside from the album "Gravity Kills" by Gravity Kills


Kind of an aggro little ending there.
