WHOS YOUR DADDY?
Friday, January 04, 2008 
It's hard to believe that I used to make a zine out of yearend faves and I didn't even make a list of my favorite 10 albums last year (for the first time since 1990). Tricia has made great cd's of some of her favorite music for the last couple of years. That seemed easier than listing and ranking things so I thought I'd give that a try. I even went back and made a comp for last year too. If you're lucky, I'll have one in my car the next time I see you out and about. Enjoy.....or give me some money to buy what I should've been liking. Happy new year. Adam

You are insane with the youtube obsession. Whats even more insane is what this blog looks like because I'm viewing it from my City computer that blocks YouTube content. So it just looks like a list interspersed with large white rectangles and a giant space in the end. Lucky for you that means I can't count the number of videos that kept you up until 4am. They're seriously inhibiting my ability to procrastinate around here... lame.

Guess I'll have to come back later!
L+ ag!

Holy crap! That last video of the Fox Rox hoilday special made me pee in me trousers. That was brilliant! I wish I could have seen that in person.

...wow, belle & sebastian... my favorite band in the world... glad you included them.

I saw High Fidelity again the other day, which I hadn't seen in awhile, and the "belle & sebastian" moment in there made be giggle on the inside.
