There it was...something beautiful--There it was...something wonderful

It's been a bit and hopefully everyone had a wonderful holiday. Did you celebrate the American way...by blowing something up? Well good for you.

Gilmour says that new LP sales will be donated. Highlight of the concert was far and away Floyd. Did Rog almost breakdown and cry? It was great. Well done boys. Looking forward to the dvd which I am sure is coming out soon but they better hurry...bootleg scum.

A challenge to Bono. and I think a pretty good idea too.

Music blogs are tastemakers for tastemakers. Makes sense kinda like preaching to the choir.

iPod shuffle price reduced.

This could be good or bad or just another reason to get XM or Sirius or hope that soon phones with be able to connect to internet radio...FCC to look at radio ownership.

Want to see original art by Hendrinx?

McDiddy uniforms?
MTV reports: First it was fresh fruit on the menu and a track suit for Ronald, but now McDonald's is looking to give its employees a makeover too. According to AdAge.com, the burger chain has been in preliminary talks with P. Diddy, Russell Simmons and Tommy Hilfiger about having their respective fashion houses spearhead an $80 million makeover aimed at turning the chain's bland uniforms into hip street gear young employees would be proud to wear.[

BBC reports: A musical based around the songs of pop group UB40 will open in their home city of Birmingham next year.
Twelve of the band's hits will feature in Promises And Lies, alongside new tracks written for the production.

misery children. cool odd paintings.

Timberlake a batman villian?

London gets 2012. I am kinda happy NYC didn't get it. It would have been cool but a major pain.

Want to know Martha's prison nickname? After reading this I am just shocked. Not one ounce of remorse and she is in total denial of doing anything wrong. What a megalo.

Mo Kin. 3 year old bangs on medal bars. Maybe it's just me but her smile makes me afraid.

Now for an idea that is way overdue ...cereal all the time any time...then again I am known to eat breakfast for dinner.

Growth of the USA. kinda cool interactive map of the hows and whens of the states of the US.

Travel with Ben Stein.

I think alot about you by Margo Guryan. and a song from Say Hi to Your Mom. and one last great "la la" song by the Starlight Mints called popsicle.
