Heaven, apparently! Wife and I had lunch out on the garden terrace of the old Vineyard Hotel, which has quite a pleasant view.

Brian Eno -- Small Craft On A Milk Sea

That sounds alright, Al. West Coast! West Coast!

The wife got home from the Zambian copper belt tonight and bought me back a few of these. Don't try hyperinflation at home, kids!

Well crap. Presumably in retaliation for being ignored for so long, my O2s have developed a faint, continuous squeal in the left driver. Sounds like air leaking out of a tire. Deliberately "farting" the ear cup will stop it for a few seconds before it comes back. Dust, I assume?

It's cranking right now! The whole room smells of toobs.

J.M. Coetzee -- Slow Man The local printing actually has the following blurb on the cover: "Another exemplary tale of suffering."

The National -- High Violet

1000W step-down transformer. 35 cup cakes. 56 degree Mizuno sand wedge.

Thin Lizzy -- Bad Reputation

Happy Birthday! Keep on tracking the groove, Nums.

The Tallest Man On Earth -- Sometimes The Blues Is Just A Passing Bird

I am listening to The Beautiful South, though I decline their counsel.
