I give you Changmas!
Puts you in the holiday mood, doesn’t it? Now my browser window is slow as all get out.
Un Simple Histoire (A Simple History)
The death of Flash can’t happen soon enough, but you’re still stuck with it. In fact, if you’re viewing this page, Flash is probably killing your browser.
For that, I apologize.
It’s because of me not you. I’m not writing enough posts to fill the gaps between the morning music break. I know that I wanted to write more at least a post a day in December. Except the posts all relate to that Thievery Corporation release from 2002. (Whoa! I thought it was 2003 release.) I was gonna put some filler in between, but I don’t want filler. I want well written posts on subjects that are worth writing about. Plus, link or quotes of the day. Yet, all I got are static YouTube videos of the cover to The Richest Man in Babylon.
What should I write?
Link of the Day [12.08.11]
It’s rather late in the day for a Link of the Day, but here’s one for you.
If your late to the latest internet meme, you can always check out “Know Your Meme” to catch up. Read up. Catch up. Forget about it. Get ready for the next one.
All That We Perceive
If I ever expected you to have heard any songs on this album, I would expect it to be this tune, “All That We Perceive.” I think they had it on heavy rotation in any Apple Store back in the mid aughts. Back when the iTunes was first released. You could’ve found Thievery Corporation all over that iTunes version. They were the iTunes darling back then.
Now let me admit right here, for the longest time I couldn’t stand to hear this tune. It being popular (in my mind) rubbed me the wrong way. This is my band. Why should you listen to them if you’ve never heard of them before? Defensive much? Yeah, I was a while ago, but not anymore.
You’ve got to listen to this tune. Listen to this album. Listen to this band. They freaking rock!
Of course you’ll be hearing this band for another week. I’m short of half way through the album. And after hearing that, maybe you’ll feel apprehensive to hear another Thievery Corporation song. We still haven’t gotten to my favorite song.
Omid (Hope)
Continuing on from yesterday’s music break, here’s the second part of the tune. It’s not the second part but they both flow very well together. Every time I hear this song, I hear the first verse as asking, “Whose bagel’s offer hope?” Now why are they singing about bagels? Is this some kind of hidden message, but said aloud? I bet you that ain’t the real lyrics. Someone, anyone, get on this and tell me what that lyric was.

HTC Bionic Plus E XT Prime. Acer Devour Neo. Samsung Liquid Plus V Plus 3D.
Are these real? They could be, and they could be coming out in 2012!
The Outernationalist
Thus I skipped on to track 3 and found some dub. It just can’t be beat.
Link of the Day [12.04.11]
I’ve always wanted to do try a series of posts related to holiday themed television shows. The AVClub has beat me to it. I seem to link to the AVClub every so often especially to their series of posts centered around a topic. This one is called the AVClub Advent Calendar highlighting holiday episodes of television shows. I had to post about this because the latest one features Northern Exposure, a beloved favorite of mine. If NewsRadio is my all time favorite comedy, Norther Exposure is my all time favorite dramady. The X-Files? It’s my all time favorite paranoia show.
If I was to do a series of holiday shows, I know I would be diving into Northern Exposure’s list of episodes. I want a girl who can appreciate the melancholia in this show.
