Episode XVII: In the Middle of a Cloud I Call Your Name

my new puppies

see the point that comes out into the ocean? pretty much where my house is

the baddest game of wiffleball this side of the Great Barrier Reef

Playlist from my radio show a couple weeks ago:
-"Happy Valentine's Day" Outkast
-"Let It Die" Feist
-"The Love You Save" Jackson 5
-"Better Together" Jack Johnson
-"Oh Yoko!" John Lennon
-"Sweet Thing" Van Morrison
-"Desire" U2
-"I'm a Cuckoo" Belle and Sebastian
-"Don't Stop Believin'" Journey
-"Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town" Pearl Jam
-"Love in Vain Blues" Robert Johnson
-"Baby Be Mine" Michael Jackson
-"You Make My Dreams" Hall and Oates
-"Razor Love" Neil Young

I've already started thinking about the next radio show. It'll be sometime in mid-April, a few days after Opening Day, so I'm going to go for summery sounding songs. I have also decided that I would like to start telling jokes on the air (the impetus for this being I want to tell a Yankee-hating joke), so if you have any jokes you want me to tell please email them (don't put them in a comment here, it'll ruin the punchline for anyone who reads this). The more childishly cloying, the better. Also, I'm always open for song/band requests.

I have just received Beck's "The Information" in the mail. As with "Guero" he has created the perfect party mix in one album. The third song on the album steals the opening bass line of Herbie Hancock's album "Headhunters" (easily the funkiest bass line ever). WHY HAVE YOU NOT HEARD THIS ALBUM YET??
And, Dad, new Kings of Leon album out April 3rd. We're setting this as a Top Priority Mission. Put your best agent on it.
