I went to the MSP last weekend and bought/inherited some records. Pairing Pussy Whipped and Bona Drag was revelatory and satisfying and suddenly obvious--like eating bananas and chocolate together for the first time. You can decide which one is the banana.

Oh, but you forgot Melody Dog.
Oh my god, you're right. Because we both loved them so much.
Actually, the crazy thing about Melody Dog is that I think they were connected to the Pastels, who weren't bad at all, who were also influenced by Orange Juice. So I seem to have fallen down a Scottish jangle-pop wormhole recently.
I am now thinking about Tuno noodle casserole only 10 hours per day, down from yesterday's 24.
That's progress. Or is it?
can radio ethiopia be the peanut butter?
or the crunchies?
It could be almond butter, I think. Rarer. I would like to eat that--banana cream pie with almond butter and chocolate layers. I am brainstorming food band names now. Cookies. Cranberries. Bread. Red Hot Chili Peppers. Martha and the Muffins. AAAH I'm hungry.
