I’ve seen 2,0 for the last 3 days in a row…Cheers for doing my taxes mate!
He wanted me to write an epic blog entry about him…all I can think of at the moment is how I beat him at scrabble for 2 days in a row…I win you lose!!!!
I’m just going to go ahead and be embarrassed for you dude…
…Besides you only read this once every 4 months…I won’t have to mention the s.p. for a while then eh?

So I’ve been downloading some music this weekend (legally even!)…
The albums I’ve gotten…
Cracker w/ Leftover Salmon – O cracker where art thou – Great…bluegrass versions of their own songs…love it!
The Dead Brothers – Wunderkammer – These guys are on the same label as C.W. Stoneking (pre war 20’s calypso blues)…this is a gem. Closest/simple comparison is Tom Waits…but imagine if Tom Waits had only good songs…This is what it would be like…recommended…if anyone wants a listen lemme know.
I suppose I could also say this is overproduced Stoneking songs with a full band…but then I suppose that sort of describes Tom Waits as well…
Todd Snider – East Nashville Skyline – Love it! With songs like ‘Tillamook County Jail’ and ‘the Ballad of the Kingsmen’ he sometimes reminds me of Oregon. Just found out today he was born in Portland. Did not know that…great folk/Country singer…great album.
Zeno Tornado & the Boney google Brothers – Lover of your Dreams -  Also same label as Stoneking and the Dead Brothers…Sort of covers the country/Rockabilly crossroads, but much better than the straight rockabilly bands you find about all the time (though they aren’t bad either, but they do get repetitious after a bit). This I think I will be listening to for a while…probably because it’s more country/bluegrass than rock n roll…recommended as well of course (else I wouldn’t have downloaded it I suppose…)
Raconteurs – Consolers of the Lonely – Better than their first album…

Forced 2,0 and Katja to watch Ricky Gervais series ‘Extras’ this weekend. Great show…I saw the first series in the States, but had never seen in on DVD here until last week…snapped up the season 1 DVD immediately. That was the only season they had so I am still waiting for season 2 (and no idea if there was a season 3). For anyone who doesn’t know who Gervais is – he was one of the creators of The Office…that’s the British one…not the american one…

Read a far lefty blog who is convinced McCain wins…this is a great election season…love it!!!
