One Toke Over the Line
Yeah, I bet that title got your attention. I have only discovered Brewer and Shipley today, and I must procure as much of their music as humanly possible. There's a chance of reviving some old LPs, but they've been stored stacked on top of each other in a room that has the climate control of a screened-in porch (okay, more than that, but only slightly).
Given that I am here, on leave, deprived of my own internet connection and thus forced to use the Computer of the Parents, I'm thinking that installing *cough* legal *cough* file sharing programs is probably out of the question. My computer, alas, has no modem, so I'm stuck with this.
On a completely unrelated note (actually, not entirely unrelated: thought process leading to this next musical remark is that Nigel mentioned on Crossing Jordan tonight that he had a blog, which leads me logically to:), tonight's Crossing Jordan featured a predominately Kinks soundtrack. Good stuff.
Reading:Double Shot, which got me craving a good latte, followed by Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim. Both today. Started about 10:30. Was gone for about 3 hours in the afternoon. The reading speed becomes to come back, if not the ability to digest "deep" material. Listening: in my head, the little bit of "Oh, Mommy" (I ain't no commie) that I can remember from 30 second mp3s. Current Obsession: apart from immunosuppressive diseases, is it possible for one's body to declare war on itself? As in out of sheer cussedness? Alice: is sitting on top of the TV, checking out the outdoor nightlife.

Pascal: The present is never our end. The past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. Thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.
