#1 on the list is The String Quartet Tribute to Limp Bizkit.
This is the one. This is the album that should really just signal the end of music. Someone with a real background in music had to arrange these songs. A classically trained cellist had to read sheet music titled “N 2 Gether Now.” At one point in rehearsals, a real-live conductor probably had to say “Okay, gang, let’s take it from ‘Now I know y’all be lovin’ this shit right here.'” Where does music go from here? Where do any of us go from here? How can anyone go on in life knowing that this album exists? Anyone? Hello?!
…who has an opinion on layout and whatnot? For example, I know that recent comments would be helpful, but it takes up space. So would, and so does, monthly archives.
Update: Professor Caleb from comments is disputing my argument on the teleportation thing, and he’s even got a diagram, so it must be Science!;
I personally think that the entire thing can be explained away mathematically if you assume that the thing being teleported is defined as being one-dimensional. Yes, yes, yes: “assume the cow is a sphere.” Clearly I need to read Fear of Physics.

I will continue to post them on this site, but their final home will be here. I need to play with the formatting over there a little, obviously.The In Nomine stuff... is going to be interesting. So far, I'm thinking...

Yeah. But.
It’s OK to find it daunting to just jump into the equivalent of 300-level college courses in history, philosophy, economics, and/or political science – although you should read at least some of that stuff, and in some cases, so should I – so if you’re looking for something that will let you gear up a little first, hey, we can do that. Because you know where all those literary-type people who can’t abide the postmodernists and deconstructionalists and Just Plain Idiots in academia go?
I’ve run into a couple of people who have never actually seen The Prisoner, so click the link to get started with getting acquainted with the show. See also here (via Hit & Run, which also has the intro to the show) for more details.
It is interesting to note that, in an era and culture where divorce is exceptionally easy and accepted, both Patrick McGoohan and Ricardo Montalban married once, and for life (over 50 and 60 years, respectively). Nice to see that this still happens, even in Hollywood.
As you may have noted by now, I have a new site: Moe Lane. It is going to be an eclectic sort of place, combining my various hobbies, obsessions, and Things About Moe That We Don't Talk About. WLM is...
