I'm a bookkeeper's son

I don't wanna shoot no-one...

Morning Zappa

Just because I felt like it.

It's just an old war

Cold lonely puritan, what are you fighting for?
It's not my security...

Battle Hymn of the War on Christmas republic

Fairy Tale of New York, the Pogues & Kirsty McColl:

Testing video

Johnny Winter, Highway 61 Revisited

Speaking of headbands

Hidden treasure

Via this post at Canadian Cynic, which links to a cataclysmically dreadful Celine Dion vid at Crooks & Liars, I discovered in the comments at C&L this wonderful video of Janis & Big Brother performing "Summertime" in Stockholm, 1969. Enjoy.

Update (of sorts): I can't stay away from blogging, but for the time being I'd rather keep my thoughts to myself, so I set up a private blog at an Undisclosed Location. Some of what I write there might make it back here at some point. So that's that. Hasta la vista.

Truckin'

like a doo-dah man



Just because I felt like it.
