I have no idea, Thom. I don't have any She & Him albums, and don't intend to buy this one. I posted this in case anyone else was interested. Obviously you are not. :=) -

I hadn't had the reading urge recently and had been occasionally reading mindless fiction. Then the urge hit me, so I have been on a reading binge, all from the library. I had requested the Scientology book (Going Clear?) right after publication, bu…

Free month enticements? I was getting them monthly, but haven't received one since mid-January. I was so done that I didn't respond to any of those "gifts." I started at eMu in 2001, and don't remember now when I left -- my download folder indicates…

Geez, Dr. Mu, I have to confess that I make my own grilled cheese that way. And even worse, I have been known to use some of Mr. Calloway's household hints. There are no Martha Stewart clones in my house.

Yoakam has the grit and the twang because he most likely heard that kind of music early on. Although Wikipedia says he is from Pikeville, Ky., both Floyd County and Johnson County claim him. Loretta Lynn is from that area, and you can still hear peo…

Okay, JUJ. This one wasn't known to me, but because of her accomplishments, she may be known to some of you -- Camilla Williams.

Katrina, hubby is still watching The Following, but he assures me that it isn't my kind of show. CBS Sunday Morning, however, is definitely my kind of show. Hope it has something of interest for you.

Not Catholic, either. According to news today, he told confidantes in the Vatican last April that he planned to resign. I am assuming that memory problems of some sort are increasing, along with physical frailty. Can you imagine the head of the chur…

Three weeks ago, CBS Sunday Morning did a story on The Real Downton Abbey (Highclere Castle). Interesting story that helps put the show in the context of actual events of …

I'm a Kevin Bacon fan -- both acting and Bacon Brothers music. I made it through maybe 15 minutes of The Following. It exceeded my tolerance for violence and gore. I left, went to another room, but I could hear all the screaming because spouse watch…

The switch to major labels was the beginning of the end for me. The switch from credits to "monies" was the death knell. I can't believe it! I haven't visited the message board in months. I will have to go enjoy the cranky old timer post.
I signed and Liked on Facebook, so have been following the progress. Glad to see a financial settlement came through AND I hope it was the amount you wanted.Not a daily deal unless you can use it to make a daily deal for yourself. A tweet pointed here:
