For a gift my mother bought me tickets to the Cursed Child play, which is coming to SF this fall. I had never read the books or seen the movies so I figured it was time pick them up from the library and see what the deal was with the cultural phenomenon I basically bypassed. I'm through the first three books. I can now see why people like them. They are well done, entertaining, and super accessible. While they won't go on my list of favorite books they have been more than good enough for me to finish the series.

Echo and the Bunnymen - Live in Liverpool

Tommy the Cat is my name, and I say unto thee...

That is fucking awesome! My grandfather was a navigator on one of those babies in the war.

BL2 was such a fun experience. Years ahead of its time, really. Glad you are enjoying it, KD. I'm cautiously optimistic about BL3. I could care less about what store it is on, but Gearbox has not exactly had a sterling track record since BL2.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call

Happy birthday, maud’dib!

^ he is too good for it to be pastiche but not good enough that I could listen to the entire thing.

May I recommend Prime 112?

Happy birthday, future ambassador!

Hit By a Train: The Best of Old 97's

The Live Series: Songs of Hope The quality is a bit up-and-down, but the good cuts are real good. If the Boss had never been a musician he still would have made a hell of a writer.

New Dido. Still love that voice all these years later.

Happy birthday, Doug! Hope you and the cats had a fun one!

I don't use the front screen recommendations but I do use the "track radio" feature all the time. I've found a lot of stuff through track radio that I ended up really liking and would have never found otherwise. Listening to music via physical media? LOL

Funkadelic - Maggot Brain

Happy birthday, Al!

Keep in mind that a new mac pro to replace the trash can is rumored for june. Might make a hell of a lot more sense than the iMac Pro for most users.

Fuck the Trump "tax cut". That is all.

The movie is less than great, but nice watch!

I did the real ID a few months ago at Corte Madera. Just show up early. It won't save you entirely from the line but in a world of shitty alternatives it is one of the least shitty ways to go.

Just show up 20-30 minutes before they open. You will be the first through the door and first served.

Between Al and I we have some pretty good stuff. Perhaps a blind tasting is in order at some point? Maybe we each bring three bottles to taste or something like that.

^ It was a pleasure meeting you for lunch, my friend! Hearing about the trip was as much fun as seeing the pictures.
