interesting, I've been learning piano and I've started on jazz ballads because they tend to have less notes.

I don’t listen to MJ and I make a mental note to stop frequenting restaurants and bars that play his music. It’s just uncomfortable to remember the victims and what MJ did while I’m trying to enjoy dinner.

Yeah but the ineptitude that comes with that can be pretty cute in a dog

this could also be devastating to that valuable business that brings bees to pollination sites. I didn't know how much our food supply depends on these businesses (which is itself a precarious business!) until recently watching this: www.nationalgeographic.com/tv/show/9980...

"Junk" is my fave, I think this counts even though it was nearly a Beatles song (on the escher demos)

is this like 'world music' (not from the US)?

we are all getting the BIRD right now

our running gag is that one day I will have bought a critical mass of picks so that no matter where you look you'll find one.
