I use WordPress for my blog.  If you're wanting to start a blog, it's a great platform, and it has a crap-load of free skins to get you there.  However, there is this one little glitch that gets me from time to time: when I'm writing, and I click the 'Schedule' button too often, it has a way of not really clicking.  I click, but it doesn't click.  This is what happend last Tuesday.  I originally had more music, but, you know, WordPress had had enough.  And that okay.  It keeps it rich.

But all in all, it works out fine for me, because I'm in that tired-to-the-point-of-delirium state of mind right now, so I'll just through up some of that stuff and call it a night morning.

These are the posts that people often ask me questions about.  The question I get the most goes like this: "uh, Joe?"  Yeah.  "What.  were.  you.  thinking."  If you've been that person.  Thanks for reading in spite.

On to the music.

Augustana: All the Stars and Boulevards. This isn't exactly new.  I mean, it happend this past decade, but that's about it.  Good songs, though.  I think he's a tortured soul.

I don't even know what that means.

Coffee & Cigarettes, caught my eye, not because it shares it's name with the movie (which was worth it if for no other reason than the five minutes of Bill Murray), but because last Thursday night I bought some coffee that tasted like cigarettes.

Sam knows.

The Format

Weird. I can see why a band would pick a high-school dance to show the awkwardness of adolescence and all that. But I think this is a junior-high dance. What. I try not to get too distracted by the way the kids sing the song back to you while bobbing their heads and mixing drinks, because I keep trying to focus on the lead singer who looks a lot like a woman. Like Nick Gilder.

I've saved the best (Hockey) for last (right here).

This song in particular reminds me of Everybody Else, which was my all-time favorite band of 2007.
