I am. It's Heifetz, after all. I just wish it were SACD or sumpin'. I might have to go after the vinyl box and get my vinyl rig shit together, that seems to be the way to go with high-res.

I eat this sort of thing up.

UnSun, The End of Life -- gothish hard pop w/femme vox. Dig.

"13% off" is subject to prejudice yet again.

Talk about a huge breast! Tying the legs together keeps the inside moist. It's Cool Whip time! If I don't undo my pants, I'll burst! Whew, that's one terrific spread! I'm in the mood for a little dark meat. Are you ready for seconds yet? It's a little dry, do you still want to eat it? Just wait your turn, you'll get some! Don't play with your meat. Just spread the legs open and stuff it in. Do you think you'll be able to handle all these people at once? I didn't expect everyone to come at once! You still have a little bit on your chin. How long will it take after you stick it in? You'll know it's ready when it pops up. Wow, I didn't think I could handle all of that! That's the biggest one I've ever seen! How long do I beat it before it's ready?

I'm so ashamed I missed that.

I <3 Wall of Voodoo. So so many great songs. If you don't have Dark Continent, you must track it down. Now I've got a medley of songs stuck in my head: Lost Weekend/Call of the West/Animal Day/Back in Flesh/...a bunch of others.

This.

The live video is pretty watchable, too.

Yello by Yello, The Anthology -- resuming this. I think I may have to jack these guys up to my Top X Favorite Artists list.

Finished 3rd disk of Blade of the Immortal. Yargh! Really wish they had finished this, it was a really good take on the manga. And what an awful place to stop. They even got the language right (in the author's notes in the manga, he mentions that he deliberately uses different styles in a deliberately incongruous and sometimes anachronistic style), without beating you on the head with it. It's much more subtle in the show than in the manga, although Sabato Kuroi was nicely pretentious with his poetry. And the more introspective scenes were nicely patient. So maybe not the best anime you've never seen, but an excellent take on the best manga you've never read.

Pfff...I can hardly remember my name from day to day.

Okay, I forgot. This is an excellent suggestion, and superimposes the coffee table book suggestion very heartily.

I can't even confirm that it's still being published, that's how out of superhero comics I am. I would find your nearest comics establishment and ask the help there. By 'help', I mean either the guy behind the counter, or the one on your side talking to him -- for some reason, they always come in twos like that. One that works there, and one that just knows a lot. There's a service for finding your nearest comics establishment (yes, besides maps.google.com), but I forget what it is. Something off wizard, I think. Well, there's this one. You don't have to frequent the store or get a subscription there or anything, just go in with your question, they'll help you find it. I remember walking by what looked like a really good one when I was in NYC the other month, but I have absolutely zero recollection where it was.

Okay, this book totally rocks. I mean, it totally rocked before, but it is my new best friend now. One of the characters just said, ...with 'on' being italicized.

Jesus. I bet she's glad she has a friend like you today. I'm at a loss.

Community, "Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design" -- this show rules.

Geccat! Who said the cat needed help? Maybe it wanted to be up there. I know I'd want to be up there if the alternative was an ass-Brazilian.

Hirsch had the...DAC3? I think...I remember it being really good. I don't remember it being non-exciting, but I also agree that it wasn't 'exciting', either. So...this sounds about right. But to me, non-fatiguing is more important than anything, so I was more willing than normal to forgive it anything else.

I ate Chinese again -- my fortune cookie fortune said, "Find some release." I was alone. You're looking at it all wrong -- they're headphones.

Have you heard the demos? Either Is This Desire? or Dry, depending on whether or not you want mature, or raw, respectively. MHO.

That actually sounds good -- CPK?

OH COME ON!!!1!

Kenna, New Sacred Cow -- one of my favorite, most repeatably listenable hard pop disks of all time.
