in spite of the weather, there is reason to live!
geez louise. it’s flippin’ wet out there. it’s rained nearly every day since new year’s now, and I’m pretty damn tired of it. i give up even taking out my ‘brolly, because it’s just gonna turn inside out for the 8 millionth time. and in more weather related news, this weekend in alicante (previously forecasted to be a balmy 18 degrees, and 21! degrees just the other day) is now supposed to be 10-12. which is just like here. only not as wet.
however, in spite of the dreary outlook, my mood has brightened considerably, because it’s official! the pixies are back!!!
in other music news, wanna buy a record label? beastie’s old label, grand royale, is up for sale for the bargain basement price of $10K. if i were a millionaire, i’d buy it just for the nostalgia factor.
Also, Sen Kennedy takes shrub to task in a capitol hill-wwf smackdown kinda way. “President Bush said it all when a television reporter asked him whether Saddam actually had weapons of mass destruction, or whether there was only the possibility that he might acquire them. President Bush answered, “So what’s the difference?” The difference, Mr. President, is whether you go to war or not.”
But let’s just forget iraq, and concentrate on something easier, like putting men on mars. besides, apparently it has offended esteemed representative tom delay, who found it “disgusting.” my heart bleeds.
more politix: analysis of the moveon.org anti-bush ad winner. then there’s this hypocrisy as well
that’s all for now. rant off. i’m going to go try and keep warm huddled over Bossanova…
