You never know where something will lead. Steve talked about a funny article about the five shittiest musical instruments. This got Ann Adams digging to find some other weird and wacky instruments, and she found some. She tried to leave a comment, but HaloScan was crapping on itself, so she sent the links to me. …

The Five Musical Instruments That Just Plain Suck The Most
I’ve always liked bagpipes and I used to know how to play the recorder pretty decently, but the writing here is hilarious and there’s no way to argue that recorders aren’t dangerous when they find their way into the wrong hands [which would be the hands of just about anyone], so here is one man’s …

Barenaked Ladies are Mean
You know what’s sad? When a really good band releases an awesome album, and then follows it up immediately with something that spends half the time sucking monkey balls and half being sort of kind of decent. Why did the Barenaked Ladies have to do that? They released Barenaked Ladies Are Me. It rocked! It …
I Guess They’ll Have To Change The Name To Tofago Now
In a quick update to something I mentioned a little while ago, the church people didn’t get their way, and Elton John is now free to gay up the island of Tobago! Woohoo!
Odd Combination Of Things Number 4
Before we get started, here’s a quick update/correction. Thestory in Things Number 3about the drunk who said a unicorn was driving his car when he had his accidentturns outnot to be quite accurate.There was no unicorn, just misunderstood slang that came out of communications from the prosecutor’s office. Apparently anybody who has a stupid excuse …
Odd Combination Of Things Number 3
Sorry for not having this posted sooner, but between seeing a friend I don’t see much, setting up my new computer, going away to see family, seeing something that made me profoundly upset [possible post to come on that one], running around getting a bunch of things done so I don’t have to think about …
Barenaked Ladies Concerts Are Me
I really wanted to write this post a hell of a lot sooner, but I was either too tired to give it the coolness it deserved, or the guide dog stuff had taken over my brain. But I think now, the time is right. Hope I can do this justice. Back a while ago, under …
Random Thoughts Ahoy!
I’ve been meaning to write this post for the last two days, and I haven’t done it. Don’t i suck? It has no real focus, just another random hodgepodge of things that have been passing through my head. I don’t know whether people are bored when I do those or not. Sometimes I wonder. Hope …
You Learn Something New Every Day.
Since we unearthed the Raffi records, I decided to google him. I’d always been a little curious about what that slight accent of his was, and how old he is. I learned that he’s from Egypt and he’s 59. But the most surprising thing I learned was, get ready for it, he produced an album …
Wow! 2006 is over!
It’s weird to be writing a blog post today. Why? Because for the last five Newyear’s Eves, we’ve had a party going on, so writing a blog post, if the blog had existed that whole time, wouldn’t be happening. But this year we decided not to have a party, so here I am. The holidays …
