Music
In a shaker half-filled with Antony and the Johnsons, combine DeVotchka and the New Pornographers. If too strong, add Edison Woods. Add a dash of the post-punk artist of your choice (we suggest Joy Division). Shake well, garnish with Mike Patton, and serve.

your quote made me think of a student I have who literally THROWS his books AWAY when he's done! How stupid is that?!? His explanation is that they'll just collect dust, so there's no point in saving them.....
Hey Everyone! Check out my short film “The Blue Saint’s Legend” on my page. It’s the first video up top. Let me know what you think. Coming soon is my Myspace Filmmaker page.
Where are you? We need to hang out. Soon. I'm less crazy right now, so call me :) Just not before 9pm.....I'm out of minutes until the 10th....so I'm not answering before 9....$$$
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We got to Chicago so late due to early morning Madison breakfast & shopping and then the damn snow on the ride down. How was your night?
Thankfully I got to catch up and SEE you this trip though!
How was the chocolate? Thank you for the new tunes- enjoying them as I write!
MERRY X-MAS!!! I hope you have a great day, it doesnt feel much like christmas down here in texas. Tom thinks we should celebrate festivus instead, he he!! Anyway, luv ya and miss ya.
Ahoj! and Happy Halloween. How's the Milk Fairy doing?
We'll arrive into O'Hare on 29 Dec (Sat) in the morning around 8... we're going to head up to Madison that day/night sometime and stay until 31st, then come back down to Chicago with some friends.
When can you meet up? If you wanted to pick us up from the airport and somehow get us back we could hang out during that Saturday and meet up again on the 31st..... ideas ideas. I wish we had more time!!!!!!!
