Concur. Also check out Brad Mehlau's jazz combo interpretations of "Exit Music (For a Film)" and "Everything in Its Right Place." Good brunch music. I'd love to hear him do an entire album a la O'Riley.

I don't remember who recommended Modest Mouse, but WTF? That shit is like the lovechild born after Pavement and Negativland DPed They Might Be Giants in a drunken threeway behind the KFC. It has its place, but hardly Paigow's thing.

Well that was me; I'm trying to get people to step outside their musical box here. Mah bad.

A couple of weeks ago, Nic Harcourt played a string quartet version of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Turns out there's an entire Flaming Lips tribute string quartet album. Haven't bought it yet, but I'm sure I will. As soon as I sell these Morrissey tickets. Who needs a pair on the floor?

Anyone liking Kings of Leon should also consider Grandaddy

Strongly disagree. Paigow will not like Grandaddy. That band is a perfect example of hype for hipsters. I've heard plenty of people say they're fantastic, but I've never heard anyone actually listening to them. They opened for Elliott Smith in his last show in San Francisco about three years ago. Nearly unlistenable.

A much better choice for Paigow would be Supergrass. Sure, they're British, but they're after a Stones/70's Bowie vibe. Either get the self-titled one or what should be this board's slogan We're In It For The Money.

You hardly know her anymore.

I listen to them. I saw them on Conan and the drummer looked so fat and lazy, I couldn't help but like them. They're the kind of lo-fi that sounds like their amps and shit are held together with duct tape. And I thought their contribution to the "I Am Sam" soundtrack was a more courageous departure than most.

Besides, I don't have the strength of will it takes to hate a band from Modesto. I rank that up there with cutting off a pileful of innoculated arms.

What I learned watching TV this weekend:

The woman who "won" the Fox show "The Littlest Groom" (I believe her name was Micah) appeared on the MTV show "Til Death Do Us Part - Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro." In what capacity you may ask? A midget stripper performing at Carmen's bridal shower.

Is that the Daily Double of classy or what?

The other thing I learned this weekend is that Wladimir Klitschko has got no chin and/or endurance, because he lost to a chump that he was beating the crap out of.

Happy Easter everyone.

We don't mind. Really. Please carry on.

I don't know. I don't see an obvious way to do it and am not inclined to spend a lot of time. I will say however that you and Bilmore are lucky that those politics board posts got erased. Had they not, you two would really have left everyone else in the dust.

A novel response to "go fuck yourself."

(amusing and somewhat explicit account of a columnist who molds a dildo from his penis and then experiences it on the receiving end; no pictures)

I am intrigued by the Make Your Own Dildo kit referenced in the column. The kit enables you to mold a dildo from your own penis. I am interested.

Many of the fb women (and not a few of the men, nttawwt)) have expressed a strong desire to have sex with me. As much as I'd like to fuck all of you, the hard foul truth is that I'm busy, there are only so many hour in a day (I'm working on that), and I cannot say for certain when I will be able to get to each of you.

But I am not a World Ruler without a heart. I know how painful your longing for me must be. So I generously offer to you a dildo molded from my very own beautiful beautiful cock. Clearly, this is not nearly as good as us being together, beholding me in my full cold-blooded splendor. But it is the next best thing until we can arrange mutually convenient times to release you from the prisons of your unbridled lust.

Due to overwhelming anticipated demand, I am afraid I cannot be expected to bear the full burden of the expense. For your convenience, here is the link to order the MYOD kit.

http://www.rainbownetwork.com/myod/s...namicIndex.asp
(Make Your Own Dildo kit order page - has pictures of dildos, or perhaps penises, it's difficult to tell - they're so lifelike!)

Each kit costs only $69.95, a small price to pay for your pleasure. The vibrating model costs $10 more. There is a modest savings when you order 2 kits, so a little coordination among you is advised. PM, IM, or email me for shipping instructions. I look forward to servicing you.

Maybe I just shouldn't respond to this.

Normally I would ask you to take your commie shit back to politics. But I assure you, the only way I profit from this is by imagining the smiles on your fulfilled faces. And in a rare display of benevolence, I will even cover the cost of shipping the finished product to all requestors. There are limits too my benevolence, though. You'll have to buy your own batteries for the vibrating models.

Man to bet all on Vegas roulette spin
Now the subject of TV show
Thursday, April 8, 2004

Will it be red -- or black? Or zero or double zero? Ashley Revell's life savings is riding on one spin.

LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- A British man who has sold all his possessions, including his clothes, will stand in a rented tuxedo on Sunday and bet everything on a single spin of the roulette wheel.

http://www.cnn.com/2004/SHOWBIZ/TV/0...eut/index.html

Shouldn't he be doing this in Monte Carlo, where the wheel has only one green space? With that kind of money, you might as well give yourself the best possible chance.

Congrats Phil. There couldn't be a better way to win your first major and get that BPNTWAM monkey off your back. At Augusta, against a hyper-worthy challenger who's playing unreal golf, and to catch him and pass him with 5 birdies in the last seven holes.

Both Phil and Ernie made unreal shots from big trouble -- Phil on 10, Ernie on 14. Other than that, neither made a serious mistake, and both just played incredible golf. Ernie's irons were a bit off, but his short game let him recover beautifully. Meanwhile, Phil didn't come close to missing a green on the back. And when Phil poured in that putt on 12, I had a feeling it was on (in the South Park sense). I mean 12 at Augusta on Sunday - is there a bigger birdie in all of golf? To say nothing of 14 and 18, both of which are almost impossible birdie holes. Of course, when he hit his tee shot and then birdied 16, my wife, who is not a big golf fan, was unimpressed after seeing two aces on that hole in the previous half hour.

Probably the best Masters I've ever watched. Way to go Phil. So now who's the new BPNTWAM? It's been Phil for so long I don't know who the other candidates are? I think it's either Monty, Sergio, Darren Clarke or Kenny Perry.

The Irish Curse doesn't sound so bad after all.
