Sorry, I’ve been a bit distracted lately.

Rice University, you are dead to me.

First, read the rumor. Next, read the news story. Read how Rice is violating its own supposed vision. Join the Facebook group. Save KTRU!

We’ve heard a similar tune before. Will there be a similar reaction this time by the students and the community, and will [...]

When I was in Prague, I saw the Lucky Dragons perform again (had seen them before in SF, too). There was a lot of audience participation, which in general audiences seem to dig quite a bit. LD dude first handed out CD-R’s and demonstrated what to do. He had a projector projecting some [...]

GAS’ing for a Lee Ranaldo Jazzmaster on eBay. Auction ends Wednesday, but really can’t afford to be spending that money. I am now soliciting donations for the $1000 Save My Bank Account fund. Put your email in the comments and I will reply with my PayPal account address. Just finished “Goodbye 20th [...]

The Plastic People of the Universe

“Hannibal’s Wedding Party”

Freedom hippies.

The Ecstasy of Saint Theresa “Fluidum”

Great gazers of shoe. [...]

My eighth grade geometry teacher Mr. Stoa (RIP) was always talking in a smooth swing-era voice. He liked to call the boys “Tiger” and the girls “Star”, which seemed rather eccentric and mystifying at the time.
