I don't shop for music on-line, but I made the mistake of downloading the Anthology of American Folk Music onto my iPod, and now scrolling through the Artists list is like going to a cocktail party thrown by your grandparents where the only guests are their arty high school friends who never left Appalachia, NTTAWWT. Overwhelmed by the offerings of Blind Lemon Jefferson, Uncle Buck Stephens, and Dock Boggs, I retire to the corner to listen to the Old 97's again and again.



Sadly, I lack the attention span to set up playlists, much less to figure out shuffle mode.

Go to the library, highlight all the folk entries and change the artist name to " generic crappy folk artist." Then only one entry will show up on the iPod. Worked wonders to hide the fact I have a 7 CD 70s compilation on mine.

Okay, let me get this straight. You give dirty looks to guys with box cutters who you think are stalking you, but you have to totally run away from guys withm whom you've had one bad date?

And, as someone else pointed out, you have 100 stories about guys who are icky or crazy on your morning commute.

I smell socks.

What can I say. The lost and the lonely seem to love me.

I drive a manual transmission, but mostly because I like to adopt European affectations. I also eat with my fork in my left and knife in my right, cross my sevens, write "29 June 2004," and say "sorry?" instead of "what?" when I didn't hear someone. I do this all to win the approval of young Coltrane, and so that I don't stand out in crowds when on intelligence missions abroad.

I approve.

Have I stated previously that I hate it when Americans look like Americans when abroad? I do, of course.

Are you among the people going to Munich with me this summer? B/c we just discussed this. Incidentally and FYI, we decided on "Victory" for our pre-trip movie night.

Edited because I can, and because it makes me feel closer to Coltrane. rp

What I meant, Miss Crankypants, is that maybe he's the one who had the car accident and is scared to drive? didya ever think of that? hmmm...didya?

Because he talks about how much he loves to drive all the time, you moron. Even in that post, he talks about "one person" being scared to drive and then says "I see it as . . ."

But enough of these fun and games, it's summer and I gotta go.

I have been banned from the beret, so France is out. Also, don't forget the "." instead of the "," when doing Euroclear / Clearstream delivery prospecti.

Dumbass, you can love to drive and still be gay. Why are you so prejudiced?

I find it somewhat comforting that in this world of chaos and internet noise, you, sb and nfh have found each other.

I heard that it was actually the worst worst, but I should check my source again.

Are you feeling left out? Because I have a news story for you, but only because I know you like them so much.

A conservative group called Traditional Values Coalition is threatening to boycott “Birth” — a film in which Nicole Kidman believes that a 10-year-old is her reincarnated husband — because of reports that there’s a scene showing the two of them in bed. The group is also calling for the boycott of all Kidman films.

Who thought it would be a good idea to put Nicole in bed with a 10 yo boy?

And a new way to raise money - David Varney, a 19-year-old who is auctioning off his virginity on the Internet, had planned to give some of the winning bid to Oxfam, but the charity says it wants nothing to do with his tainted money.

See above, under "married, and not in Mass."

Oh, when I say "Americans", I mean other people*. Not us.

*t-shirts w/words on them, shorts, sneakers, white socks, fanny packs and three bottles of water.

Fine, be a hata. As for me, I will continue to support the rights of gays to drive any kind of transmission they want.

OMG. Me too. Do you also say "holiday" instead of "vacation" and use periods instead of dashes when writing phone numbers (eg: 206.969.6969)??

Whether it is the same it or not, the rule should apply.

I thought you were smarter than this.

Shit. I know you're kidding, but I do the latter. For the former, I say "spring break in Cancun".
