    Jeff Tweedy was here! No kidding!

    I checked my mail today and was completely surprised to see a CD mailing pouch (you know the kind) with not one, not two, but three cdrs from the leader of Wilco. What a guy! The odd thing was that he shows his address is somewhere in Indiana, and I could have sworn he live in Chicago. Maybe it's just someone with the same name? After all, there is a Hall of Fame linebacker who has the exact same name as me, so it is quite possible.

    Anyway, the new one from The Notwist, one from Gypsy Groove, and Obscurity Vol. 1 were all part of the package. I guess I need to return the favor.

    Thanks Jeff!

    Swish - half lit from pale ale tonight. You gotta love it.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    Hey, cool!

    I haven't checked my work mail in a few days, so after reading the posts, I was hoping to find some CDs in my box asswell.

    And I was not disappointed- thanks, Jeff! I've been curious re: the Peter Gabriel, too.

    Wow.

    After the seriously donkey nugget-lickin' release from MMJ I was starting to drift a bit but this brings me back. This is really fantastic Sloshy, gracias. Yer like a one-man Tex-Mex advance team.

    Can't wait for the real deal.

    Here too...

    ....a delivery from Mr. Tweedy. Got home last night from a long week away working and found a very generous filled pouch. I shall enjoy the contents this fine morning.
    Anna Netrebko is superb. Thanks for the pointer Jeff.

    Sounds like Jeff has an "in" with the postal offices on both sides of the pond. When normal folks like myself dispatch something it seemingly takes a month or two to make the journey. Them Wilco boys got the juice.
