@Zesmerelda I don't mind small blogs, or even artsy blogs, but Gawker Media for instance should be able to pay *something* for reuse.
Tezeta-Mahmoud Ahmed on Ethiopiques 19 simply stunning bass line, and moody vocal, sort of like a cantor, though in Ethiopian. Great sax 2.
I don't recall ordering a "hard copy" of David Byrne and Brian Eno's new album, and yet, here it is, in my mailbox. Oh well.
Eric Zorn asks if people have forgotten Danny Davis' participation in Moon's creepy ceremony. I haven't. Davis is my Rep. http://bit.ly/M8gM
I only have Gallo vermouth, and none of those nasty cherries, but I do have rye. Drinking a Manhattan now, in fact. http://bit.ly/gkYz
@gapersblock about 3 minutes ago, was snowing fairly steadily in West Loop, not anymore however
Twitterrific needs to highlight their updated betas better. A new version was released about 2 months ago, and I still was using older 3.1
@Zesmerelda congrats. Too bad being republished on a blog doesn't pay…
Speaking of Mad Men, BBDO, New York, has lost the Pepsi account after 48 years.
Ru-oh, Mark Cuban charged by the SEC for insider trading. Can't be good for his Cubs bid…
Calvin Trillin article makes me miss Austin, and brisket. http://bit.ly/1vz2
Ever eat wheat gluten? Or chicken? Melamine, it's what's for lunch http://bit.ly/13qla
Putin, Casto, Evo Morales and Obama? Kind of a misleading headline, doncha think? http://bit.ly/11H22
Am looking forward to the new as of yet untitled Leonard Cohen album, 3 songs finished, more written. In a certain mood, he has no peer.
and geez, Leonard Cohen and Leonard Nimoy look a lot alike these days.
Cohen again: "I was discussing my drinking problem with Sharon Robinson. She said, "This is very serious - we better put it to music."
Leonard Cohen, in December 08 Uncut: "I was drinking about 3 bottles of wine before each concert. I only drank professionally"
Snowing in the suburbs apparently, but nothing downtown. Booo.
Yes I can feel this pain. If I couldn't use email for 8 years, I'd be upset. http://bit.ly/ZqUS
Força Bruta The guitar rhythms circle around a moving middle, makes me move my belly button in concentric ovals in my chair. Huge thumbs up
