  1. I've never read Catcher In The Rye. I subconciously always blamed the book on twisting Mark David Chapman's mind into murdering John Lennon. I know it's not the book's fault, but I've never been able to stomach the thought of reading it for that reason.

  2. jimmy kimmel killed on that appearance. It was almost uncomfortable. Since that show isn't live, I don't know how he was able to shoot out them strong jabs. Same with Conan....how is NBC not in control of their broadcast? I'm really surprised that the same people who bleep the FUCKs and SHITs arent' stopping the trashtalk.

    It's likely bringing in lots and lots of ad money at this point 'cause EVERYONE is watching, but still.... the shit Conan says is so fucking hilarious and against the very network that his emissions come from that I'm very confused on where the line can get crossed. He definitely crossed it, but why is there no control? (money?)

    I think NBC knows that public opinion is already against them ... if word got out that they were censoring Conan, Jay, etc., it'd be waaaaaaay worse than it already is.

    Music I've been delving much deeper in to and have discovered a lot of great new stuff from:

    Bruce Springsteen

    Josh White

    Pete Seeger

    Woody Guthrie

    Leadbelly

    Fred Eaglesmith

    I credit CBC Radio 2 with about 90% of my new musical discoveries in the last 16 months.

  4. Hey folks,

    It seems to me that iPod will not play .flac files, so I'm wondering what you have done to get around this? Are you converting to 320k mp3 and dealing with the slight degradation, or is there a way to convert to Apple's lossless codec. I've also heard of people using Rockbox.

    Thoughts?
