Music and Politics
Two separate issues in one post;1st. I have to comment MoveOn.org is pretty cool, I didn't $ contribute to Dean's run for nomination as I wanted to see how far he would go before committing cash. And, I won't send $ to Kerry, I most likely will vote for him but am not particularly bouncing up and down with joy over his candidacy... I may well send $ to MoveOn though, I like the blend of humor and outrage, if you haven't inferred this yet for me to give $ to anything politically aligned is a big deal (heck I don't even send cash to the Greens, which prob. Means I'll go to hell, or some other damnable place).
As for music... Does anyone understand the system by which an album is still considered new? I was at BestBuy (erk) the other day and their canned music program was promoing the Yeah Yeah Yeahs album as a brand new, fresh release, and the thing is at least a year old. Which I guess if they are getting some new attention for it that's cool as the album is good, but enough already.
and a little pop quiz, who has a song with the title of this post? (too easy?)

Sorry, kinda a lame post I guess, slow day at work... blah blah blah
