The reason I don't talk on the telephone is because I dislike dead air.

I want to see Alvin Williams back in a Raptor uniform.

Also, I'm confused.

Baby, It's Cold Outside

Got my vote on and it was very cold out, so we need a cold song. In fact, it's another Bob Dylan song; how can a man be such a good songwriter and such a terrible musical performer?

Girl of The North Country

Chris Thile (mandolin) & Sam Bush (mandolin/vocals)

If you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to the one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

If you're goin' when the snowflake storms,
Where the rivers freeze and the summer ends,
See for me if she wears a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.

Please see if her hair hangs so long,
Rolls and flows all around her breast.
See for me if her hair hangs long.
That's the way I remember her best.

(spoken) How you feelin', Chris? (And nice long solos from Chris, then Sam.)

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times I've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to the one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine,
Love of mine,
Love of mine,
True love of mine,
Love of mine,
Love that girl.

(spoken) My wife, she's from way up in the north country. She's from way up in Louisville.

And then a nice instrumental finale. A simple song, but nice to listen to.

Also, I've recently had this bit of dialogue from Blazing Saddles in my head:

BART: Are we awake?
JIM: We're not sure. Are we...black?
BART: Yes, we are.
JIM: Then we're awake...but we're very puzzled.

With a Ticket Stub In Your Hand

Oh-Oh

She's only seventeen.

Wipe It!

Aslan Is Jesus, Or So Which One's Prince Caspian?
Impressions of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

(Spoilers?)

Susan is pretty hot.
That lamp-post is an incredible image. Mr. Lewis had an inspired thought when he came up with that.
Ohhhh, to be Prince Caspian, float upon the waves...
It's good the witch doesn't look silly, but why's her dwarf talking like that?
Ohhhh, to be Prince Caspian, float upon the waves...
Why isn't the wolf British?
Man, Edmund is dumb.
That centaur general is pretty bad-ass.
Ohhhh, to be Prince Caspian, with nothing to return to but the demons in their caves...
Two swords!
That's a neat effect.
I love this centaur guy. He loses his two swords, so he pulls out another huge sword. Awesome.
Did Aslan just eat the witch's head?

And then the end of the movie, which I don't remember thinking anything about. So whatever.
