The Omniscient Mussel (Free subscription) | 02/05/2010
Or why the Internet is the best thing ever. Last night Miss Mussel was embroiled in an epic battle with MS Word and its sinister, shape-shifting army of advanced formatting commands. Reaching a wall, she appealed to Twitter for some music to help get her over the hump. @sandramogenson and @hollychickman came to the rescue with [...]

... To whom it may concern: ... Reporting a "DMCA Violation is a very funny joke indeed for a post called "Steal This Podcast. It seems Google is stoopid. However, the files have been down for a year, so I ask: what was the point? Anyway, cheers, mate. You are about to enter a new dimension, to expand your mind, to feel things you've never felt before. To connect, to get it all together,...

In the late 1990s, the Wall Street Journal famously 'reported' that the US 'micro-brewery' movement was a fad —comparing it to the interest in cigars— that would quickly shrink to a small niche of aficionados. They've done it again, in a Julie London "Cry Me A River" -like report on the current woes of the beer business in the US. Tendentious when corporate America is involved,...

'Round Midnight is a wonderful song, does not matter if its Mile Davis or JulieLondon, it just sounds so replete, and washed out in a whisky sort of way. Julie London has a voice like melted chocolate dripping onto velvet. Just right for the later hours when you are feeling mellow. My dad bought "London By Night" In the early Sixties, and even as a young lad, I was hooked. Thanks, Jim, for...

It would be easy to dismiss this movie as dated. It is full of beat-you-over-the-head morality: the woods=sex, the red house=sex, kissing=sex and sex=death. Sex, sex, sex. That should send some hits my way. So we've established that the plot...

What's My Line? appeared on TV from 1950 to 1967. For those unfamiliar with the show, the format was brilliant: Four panelists tried to guess the identity of a mystery guest by taking turns asking questions, with the guest answering merely "yes" or "no." The high point was the celebrity-guest segment, during which panelists wore blindfolds and the superstar answered in a disguised...

The moving Moon went up the sky, And nowhere did abide; Softly she was going up And a star or two beside - - From 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772 – 1834) The expression 'Once in a Bl ue Moon' means 'infrequently' or 'rarely' and originally referred to a second full moon in the same calendar month. December 2009 is a Blue Moon month so we can anticipate another...

In my search for rare vinyl - in record shops, boot sales and charity shops - I come across the good, the bad and the ugly. These days I tend to buy anything that looks interesting, as long as the price is right, which means I sometimes land up with crap, but sometimes hit pay dirt (like Ronnie Self's Bop-a-lena which I featured a few weeks ago). From time to time I intend to feature some of these...
