Hey - sorta responding to your post about THIS HEAT, more specifically about your comment that John Peel was THE MAN. He was. Listened to his show via http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1 religiously for a few years prior to his death. I worshiped the guy, which is weird, being a total stranger, but if you've ever listened to him for any amount of time you'll know where I'm coming from. Just the coolest guy around. I sent him an email about some song he played that I liked(Expansion Ride by Magoo). Turns out that he was the type of guy that would actually respond to nubs like me. Not only that but he mentioned my email and said my actual name on the air, which I'm not ashamed to say still makes me smile. LIKE OH MY GOD JOHN PEEL SAID MY NAME -- JOHN PEEL IS TALKING ABOUT ME. I still have that recording and it's a treasured digital possession.

Anyway, thanks for letting me be drunk on your page.

If he's like me he'll sit on them in 15 minutes or so.

Sorry I just noticed this, 3 weeks after you asked. She's a character from the visually-stunning movie of 1947, Black Narcissus.

Just open the door and step out right before the elevator hits bottom.

At 2:40, is that a horse that sounds like a dog, or a dog that looks like a horse?

Looks like he's into brownies now too.

That right there wins the golden potato award for laziness.

I must be getting old because the first thing that came to my mind is "I'm glad I don't live on that street having to hear these jackasses scrape their overgrown Big Wheels down the hill day in and day out."

Not really a fair contest. They have some poor guy that wears a helmet running the whacker. Bit cruel actually.

Seconded. The accent helps.

The tiny bit I looked into it says it can still be thousands of dollars to be done correctly--it's obviously still labor-intensive-- and doesn't last as long as a good paint job. Seems some folks do it because they want a different color car, but they don't want their resale value to plummet by doing an actual repainting, which wrapping avoids.

Pull !

Super cool post. Looking forward to part 2.

OK, time to finally tune the bike for the season. I'll never do that shit, but damn that makes me want to ride.
