Listening to the rest of Keiichi Suzuki's MOTHER MUSIC REVISITED album from 2021 today (I'd mostly only heard Flying Man before this). The little "I miss you" sample in Fallin' Love... nice

I've been told that I do not have to hand it to the Church of Scientology, but they had somebody doing strong magazine ad work in the late 80s

It's my pleasure to announce, after a few years' consideration, that "Come Dancing" by the Kinks has received the coveted Perfect Song/Perfect Video award from copywriter and longtime music listener Dan Moore. Ray Davies can come pick the award up from my desk at his earliest convenience

The only limit on the number of videos about "Peg" by Steely Dan that I'm capable of watching at 10:30 on a Saturday night is the number of times the various players have been interviews about it

Thackeray illustrating Pickwick... kind of a fun hypothetical but he and Dickens absolutely would have come to blows before it ended

I don't think I'm ready to try Vollman but this is a high-level cover for a debut by a weird novelist... like, the stranger your book is, the harder it should be to determine the year it was published, what it's about, etc. Ideally you dump "A novel by" too... go fully inscrutable

Related to this, I've been thinking about the category of "Tech that is real but exists almost exclusively in glossy children's books." What am I missing?

2. Monorails (also represented here)
3. Hovercrafts

Nancy's homework has writing in it now so I finally got to put the children's dictionary I bought years ago into play. Love that it has the astronaut MMU photo that universally denotes 80s/90s educational content, just like my childhood encyclopedia did

This guy's book kind of changed my life last year... did not know what he looked like but frankly I'm glad it's this. I'm like the guys in midcentury novels who traveled east to learn from Buddhist monks in the Himalayas, only the wisdom of the ancients is unfashionable baby-boomer self-help stuff

Not sure where Melvin picked this up but this morning he kept calling his daycare friends, who are the same size as him, "my little friends."

I've done a lot to fix my mood and productivity in the last 5-6 months, which has been great except that I keep running into parts of my life and my surroundings that the previous version of me ignored. I'm going to be scraping our backyard griddle for the rest of my life

Emma is the toughest Austen reread because the first third's just a gentle but inexorable breeze blowing you to a big awkward scene Emma creates for no reason... this would be a better post if I didn't have scruples about spoiling a 200-year-old book, but I'm not going to get in Jane Austen's way

FYI: The Wikipedia page for ska has the names of various late-80s third wave bands from around the world on it. If you were in America in the late 90s, you need to know that wide vistas of novelly accented ska tracks are now open to you

There's an Asian market here that mostly sells food but also has appliance and tchotchke inventory that I think predates my moving here, and you don't know how badly I want to have a use for this National-branded electric fish roaster
