Work was not fun today. Not even "Subway Sunday" could brighten my mood. Oh well, it happens, I guess. I have a busy week ahead of me. I think. Right now I'm looking forward to my days off. I'm very tired. Of course, I have to take my car to be serviced early Wednesday morning, so I won't have an opportunity to sleep in on that day. Curses! Hey, how about a mix tape?

"Multi-instrumentalist and composer Steve Parry has produced a work of haunting beauty and timeless depth in The Singers…his ethereal piano chimes and drone-like resonance pervade this album. In a slowly unfolding landscape that seems to defy time, these pieces feel less composed than discovered: lingering like mists swirling and eddying in frost hollows. The listener almost comes upon them by accident. They are delicate yet surprisingly robust pieces of music that both unnerve and settle with equal measure. There is something austere about Parry's modus operandi that makes every note and their place in the ensuing soundscape feel significant but [...]
There should be a beer label on this blog, but too many labels is a bad thing. So this is [not] a rant. I have no idea how else to label it. It's not news, it's not daily life, it's...beer. Fuck! Finally, a new website concept that I can get behind: Beer Suggest contains over 4,000 reviews (not as many as RateBeer, but whatever) and over 1100 breweries to help you find the perfect beer for any occasion. According to the website it is a "wiki/social community for beer loves." I don't know what "wiki" means, [...]
Boy did I get drunk last night. Bear Republic Big Bear Black Stout, you are no longer my friend, no matter how deliciously alcoholic you might be. There was a period of time when I found myself "falling asleep" (blacking out?) on a pillow-covered floor for one or two minutes at a time. I don't remember stretches of conversation that occurred between myself and the person with whom I was hanging out, but I can always pretend my cognitions were fascinating and insightful. Now here's the music! RULES for uninitiated noobs : With 100MB of webspace, [...]
Website re-launch. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I'll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week there is none. These songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply . The goal [...]
