  • There is a pretty extensive interview/lecture with him available at the RBMA website... http://tinyurl.com/4ued3g
  • The lady would get a ring. Pay some debts. Invest some, save the rest.
  • Also what would you guys think this dudes wall of fame looks like? Leather bound first editions of such classics as "Who Moved My Cheese?" and "Rich Dad, Poor Dad."
  • I meant the compound, not the Latter Day Saints as a whole. Yes, I understood that you meant the compound. Somewhere in the wiki link, it mentioned that shortly after the land for this compound was purchased as a "hunting retreat", locals in the ar…
  • I know there's plenty to make fun of on the surface, but it's creepy and sad, not to mention maddening that this community went undetected and unchecked for so long. It'll be a long and hard road back to a decent and healthy life, if ever, for a lot…
  • ASI Records was a label based on West Broadway on Minneapolis' north side. I know Natural Life's S/T and the first Haze LP were on ASI as well. I've seen some random other things on the label, folk & SSW related, if I recall. Can't really he…
  • fuggit, i think this dude Mike the 2600 King from there contributed/wrote a google map link for you in this thread so....
  • its snowing right now. slushy snow, but snow nonetheless. eff minneapolis winters. they seem to never end.... No doubt.... but it could be worse. Up north and on the iron range they are looking at 20-36 inches.
  • Yay I've seen him a couple times, most "recently" during the first Triptych festival in Edinburgh, and it was excellent. While that was some time ago, now, I don't see why anything would have changed. Like many other groups he relied heavily on t…
  • A local bar has/used to have a free bacon night. Buy a beer, ask for some bacon, and you got a basketful. Now, I love bacon, but there is just something wrong with a basketful of it.
  • Garrison Keillor (!) on Central Park West with his kids.... I see Keillor and Tay Zonday around with frequency (U-MN, related). Keillor seems angry a lot, though he was relatively nice when I mentioned enjoying one of his editorials in the Star T…
  • The garden sounds great. I'd love to live somewhere you can grow cilantro wild, it just dies too quickly when I've tried over here. I'm not sure where you're at, but I can usually get cilantro to go to seed several times in Minnesota's rather sho…
  • How did you make bread in 20 minutes? Had it already risen, or was it a quick bread? Yeah, from the "Artisan Bread in 5 minutes a Day" recipe. I make the dough on Sunday, then make a loaf every couple days through the week.
  • Arrived home late last night, so I went the quick and easy route: fresh, homemade bread (in 20 minutes): while that was baking... Prosciutto & Melon Farro/Grape Tomatoes/Crumbled Feta, with a Clos du Bois Fiume Blanc reserve. Desert was a pie…
  • BB King's revue... Skatalites a third for Fugazi electric Masada every time I've seen Sharon Jones as well. I wonder, though, with bands like the Dap Kings, BB Kings band, Masada, the JB's - while they are undeniably tight, their sets are all extre…
  • El Wyno has a nice looking bike, but if you want to combine drinking and riding a bike, why not bring some friends along?
  • We don't get the day off here at the University of MN, but AFSCME folks are wearing red to mark the occasion.
  • Some of you fedora fans might like them. Yeah, Indy illustrates my problem with fedoras here: the large brim just doesn't work for me.
  • I have a 7 7/8 head (squareheaded-norwegian ancestors related) so finding good hats is difficult. Long ago I found a vintage grey-tweed Trilby hat which I liked, but have since lost. Most google results for Trilby's are quite awful, but this one is…
  • the US seller will get his loot anyway. that doesn??t depend on how strong or weak the dollar is, right? people will spend depending on the currency more or less... I'm curious about this.... let me get this straight: even though the money you wil…
  • 10 points to anyone who can tell me what nationality Saint Patrick was? Ya gets nothing if ya google it. Wasn't he Turkish? I think you're thinking of Sinter Klaas.
  • Former Slave. Possibly an Englishman, or Welshman... history is unclear (if memory serves.)
  • ...caribou too though i got caught sleeping on him so i'm catching up. still need to fill out the older manitoba stuff. all of what i hear so far i like though. Caribou put on a great live show, too. Catch them when you can. I think "Up in Flames"…
  • Ah, "San Remo" name confusion related. San Remo Golden Strings = northern lp, + some 45's, while San Remo Insert year here> are tepid Italian pop comps, with scattered decent string arrangements, numbering in the eleventyhundreds.
  • How many of these are there? I see a ton of the San Remo String albums and some stores put wall piece prizes on them. after hearing eleventenhundred of them I fond one with a few good tracks (titled simply, San Remo 1973 on the PI label) whats the s…
  • Someone here caught Rabbits & Carrots in Merida, I believe. pardon my little dudeness, but is that a raer? so there are spots in Merida? Shit, let me know what's good then? We can make this record-related real quick! Rabbits & Carrot…
  • Someone here caught Rabbits & Carrots in Merida, I believe. You should be able to catch an ATM at the Airport upon arrival; generally the most "fair" exchange rate of the day.
  • You were under the rijksmuseum (home of Rembrandts 'nightwatch') The group you heard were Tibetan moks that used to be there daily. Unfortunately that tunnel is now closed as they are renovating the building, so no more riding through on my bike an…
  • Maybe this stuff is old-hat for you euros, but there are a few things I???ve seen o???er there that were facemelt. Somewhere near the center of Amsterdam on my first visit there, we passed an alcove underneath which three dudes were doing that mu…
  • I liked Hillary's so-called apology today: "I am sorry if anyone was offended." How about saying, "I'm sorry. It was wrong."? Fuck her, continued. "I'm sorry if anyone was offended" is what I purposely say to people to piss them off more after I'…
