Have an awesome day of great food, great beverages and great tunes, young fella! Cheers!

Yes, thanks for the Sea Changes follow up rec. I'll have to take some Prozac and have a listen when I get some time.

I HAVE to dig a path for the pugs, or they'd be buried alive. How does Poe do?

Beck's new album Morning Phase, supposedly a sequel to Sea Changes... and I can hear it in the very first notes. Thanks for the full album preview, NPR. http://www.npr.org/2014/02/16/274773496/first-listen-beck-morning-phase?utm_source=music&utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=20140217

Yeah, we've got another 3-6" or so in the forecast tomorrow and it's bordering on depressing. We're paying big time for some recent, very mild winters I guess. The only hope is that this means that we might have something approaching a normal spring and not go from freezing to frying overnight. And when did they start naming winter storms? That has to be the lamest weather-related thing they've come up with in a long while. Next thing you know every time in rains in the summer it'll be "SUMMER STORM JOEY JO JO" or some bs. Good grief.
