New Tuesday

It is purely coincidental that I received 5 new cds today--and it is a Tuesday. I just happened to go get the mail today.

Although I have enjoyed listening to all the discs, I'm still not up for a review of each one yet.

For the geek in us all...

SCI FI Wire | The News Service of the SCI FI Channel.

In Fanboys, [Kristen] Bell plays Zoe, one of several fans who set out in 1999 from the Midwest to California to honor the wish of their dying friend to break into George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch and watch Star Wars: Episode I—The Phantom Menace before the movie's worldwide release.

Veronica Mars as a geek!?! I'm intriqued.

Also on the SciFi channel is a great new series called Eureka which is somewhere between The X-Files and Roswell on the interest scale in my brain which means I'll watch it for at least two seasons. Plus, they showed a quick preview of the next season of Battlestar Gallactica. Wow!

View the trailer for Eureka:

Sun don't shine

For someone whose level of sadness can jump from 1 to 8 during a four-minute Ryan Adam's song, I really should listen to less alt-country. Half of my record collection would need to be burned in order for this happen and sometimes I really need to listen songs titled "Drinking Again" (mp3) and "Car Wreck" from Haley Bonar's ...the size of planets. The album is a few years old and can easily be filed between Jesse Sykes and Neko Case in my rotation.

Despite the title, the song that makes the album stand out from every other alt-country release is "Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy" mp3.


If you are interested in trying out Vox, let me know. I have a few extra invites.
