There's been quite a bit of chatter across the site the last few days about compilation CDs, catching up with artists you'd never quite got found to listening to etc. As I was browsing iTunes this morning I came across, again, a series of 5-track downloadable EPs from the redoubtable Rhino label.

A hotel operator owes guests a duty only to keep the premises in a reasonably safe condition for use and premises liability cases against hotels involving power...

As everyone has learned from spending two months playing “Beatles: Rock Band” non-stop, there was no group quite like the Fab Four. As they moved like a Jedi lightsaber through the Sith tummy that was the music industry, things that people had always taken for granted were changed forever. Records were shattered, budgets were increased, the hits kept coming and no one ever missed a bonus!...
Facial hair. Everyone’s talking about it. Everybody’s growing it. I’m growing a moustache for movember (donate here: ttp://uk.movember.com/mospace/your-donation-page/ ) and it’s got us thinking about facial hair – ‘Beard you could lose a badger in’ facial hair and the artists that are members of the club.

I heard this Andrew Gold song today on the radio, Lonely Boy. I haven't heard it in years. Does it make you cry..for me? Because you think I'm a lonely boy? ...Go ahead. Shed your tears. It's OK. Let it out. OK. That's enough. Now go get a tissue and clean yourself up.
