Sometimes it really bugs me how so many seem to overlook the pure genius and mastery of Rufus and Chaka Khan. It's almost like they get lost in the discussion, particularly Chaka herself, when we're all reminiscing about the likes...

The feeling that someone was wasting your time? I'm helping with important elections stuff at work and I'm in a drafty office at one of the halls of residence. I've got some Rufus Wainwright music playing... my mp3 player doesn't like the cold. (Poor thing) Been here for about an hour or so and no ones been to vote.

This is a doodle of our large orange cat with the enormous head. He is a very large, sweet happy fellow.
