If Wade comes back, you may be right. Guy

Apparently there is a new "songs of Elton John" jazz cd w/Pietro Tonolo, Gil Goldstein, Steve Swallow and Paul Motian. link

I saw "Blades of Glory" this afternoon. Pretty silly, though there was some classic Ferrell in there. Guy

There's a new Rush album, Snakes and Arrows, coming out in May. I haven't heard any of their albums since Different Stages and don't expect that to change... Guy

Maybe Marbury can do the Knicks a favor and retire to become a shoe mogul. Guy

Uh oh, Dirk's injured. Guy

All good things come to an end... I felt the last two episodes were a little rushed -- Antony and Cleopatra's relationship was underdeveloped. Also, would have liked to see a little more of Livia (the character!) . Nevertheless, a worthy companion to I, Claudius. Guy

XTC performing "Books Are Burning" live (Andy Partridge is a pretty good guitarist!) music video for "Grass" (amusing, though Dave Gregory isn't featured for some reason) "Peter Pumpkinhead" music video music video for "Senses Working Overtime" Mandy Moore performing "Senses Working Overtime" (not so good)

Wow, I guess the Pistons got ridiculously lucky on that one. Guy

I found this box score on yahoo tonight, but I bet it will be changed by tomorrow.

$650/year for haircuts? $50/visit? WTF? Guy

I didn't even realize that was Ricky Schroder! Guy

It looks like the media is getting a little carried away with all the Kobe accolades. He's been playing fantastic, but all the wins his team has produced during this period have been against mediocre/crappy teams. It's not going to amount to much in a 7 game series against the Suns or Spurs. Guy

Mutual funds are actually a pretty horrible investment in the long run. I assume you aren't including index funds in that category. Guy

Does anybody else find Alex Blake's singing during his bass solos to be annoying? I thought it was somewhat disrespectful that he did this behind Billy Harper's playing... Guy

You might like Colin Moulding's voice, he sings about 20-30% of their music. I could see how some people would consider Andy Partridge whiny or annoying. Guy

I dug out Skylarking on a whim after a long period of not listening to it. What an album! I've been listening to it non-stop. With all due respect to Andy Partridge, who wrote some great songs for this album, Colin Moulding might've bested him here. Apparently Colin is no longer interested in writing music. Guy edit. From wikipedia (at least Dave Gregory is back on board. hooray!):

This is on somewhat short notice, but I am going to tomorrow's (Friday) Randy Weston + Billy Harper gig 7:30 PM at the Jazz Standard. Anybody else want to meet up for the gig? Guy

I settled on the FCE Ultra emulator for the NES. No problems so far, except I'm totally addicted to playing these games! I've never played Contra. Guy

You know, I've never played the original Zelda. I guess I now have the chance... As soon as I beat Star Tropics. Guy

I'm currently wrapping up season 1 of Star Trek Deep Space Nine. "Duet" was fantastic. Guy

I was talking with a friend last night about the good old NES. I remember bugging the hell out of my parents to buy me one in '88 or '89. I spent so many hours playing it. Favorite games: Super Mario Bros 2 & 3, StarTropics (underrated), MegaMan, Metroid, Zelda 2. Any recommendations for emulators? Guy

For all the talk about Gilbert Arenas being an MVP candidate earlier in the season, the Wizards are just an "OK" team. Truly great players make their teams great. Sorry Gilbert... Guy

For all you Nintendo fans...

I've always liked Ralph Gleason's notes to Bitches Brew, though I'm not a huge fan of his liner notes in general. Guy
