The entire crop of new McDonald's ads are absolute torture. That whole "I'm lovin' it" motto and song/motif has to go. The instant they come on, I reach for the mute button.

Are you telling me you haven't bought our CD yet!?!?!?!?!?!?!? FOR SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pistons in seven. I'll take you up on the wager.

The Silvertone saxes were supposedly made by Buescher.

I don't think Kobe can guard Rip. I don't think anyone can guard Rip.

I heard there is such a service in San Francisco. You call a number and they'll deliver a condom or condoms in minutes so you don't have to "break the mood".

Ron Artest lost the game for the Pacers with that cheap-shot to Rip Hamilton. Artest should've been thrown out for that one, but maybe it was better that they left him in and he made that awful 3-point attempt as well as got his ass schooled by Tayshaun. Lakers, here we come!!!

I can't remember if I have this record or if I've just seen it. One or the other. Or possibly both.

Pacers won't win. Detroit isn't going to give up an opportunity to close this thing out at home. SS1, I honestly think the Pistons can win against the Lakers. Whether they will or not... that's anybody's guess, but I think they have the skills to do it.

Uh, aren't they Canadian? Reminds me of an article in the local rag here in Lansing (an "alternative" newspaper put out by the only major newspaper in town -- how alternative is that? -- called, appropriately enough, Noise) by the music critic that had the Top 5 Rock Albums of all time. One was Led Zepplin III and in the description the guy actually wrote, "Led Zepplin represented the pinnacle of American rock n' roll." Uh......

Yes, supposedly we are on "Sony Connect, EMEPE3, QTRnote, CatchMusic, RuleRadio, Napster, BuyMusic, MusicMatch, Apple iTunes, MusicNet, Emusic, and AudioLunchbox", although I haven't checked all those sites. But that's what CDBaby tells me.

Paco, Our record is available directly from our website or from CDBaby.com or from Tower Records online. We are probably not in any local stores around you, unfortunately!

Well it's official.... Lakers and Pistons in the final. Oh wait, Pistons have to kick some ass tomorrow at home. Pistons vs. Lakers = Pistons in 7

What's the Shirley Scott release? Damn, more organ records to buy.

I know what you mean. Thank you!

Seems like 90º wouldn't cover enough. The Leslie horn would be away from the mics for 3/4ths of it's rotation. Jim, my Leslie has a neat little circuit in it that was custom made for me by a fellow in Ann Arbor. It stops the Leslie horn and rotor in the same place every time so you don't have to worry about it being off-axis from the mic(s). By the way, good to see you back here. Any interesting projects lately?

It's better than J. Kidd's stupid-ass kiss.

In the words of Ralph Wiley... Read it, baby...

Ouch. IF the Lakers win the series and when the Pistons do, I say Pistons in 7. The Lakeshow is done when the Big D comes to town!

Yum! I gotta figure out something to do tomorrow... you got a grill, Joe? Mine is at my brother's and I ain't got the truck to go get it.

... but since we just got back from a weekend in Manistee, I doubt my wife would be up for the drive. And we bought $600 worth of antique furniture in Manistee that I have to go up and get sometime this week.

If that would've happened, I would've supplied you with a lifetime of free Organissimo records.

That's ok, they haven't recorded anything worth shit there in 30 years.

Did you get on TV?! They did a close up of Reiner! What side of him were you sitting on? I'm sure ESPN will re-run that mutha tonight. Croshere was lucky. Rip is the shizzle.

Dude, I would totally haul my B3 and play that shit tomorrow for some food. I'll bring Sweetpea and Mini-Pea as well....

I haven't been buying CDs lately. You wanna wager a new CD of something or other?
