If Music Be the Food of Regional Journalism

Well, play on. It's a particularly good issue of the Pulse this week, with an engrossing cover story on Chattanooga after midnight, and two (count 'em!) CD reviews by Totten. I also churned out a couple of pieces, both available in the Published Mesh links. One is a feature on Isaac Wardell's recent collaboration with Mason Neely, which resulted in a perfectly lovely album. (By the way, be sure to catch Isaac in concert with the Totten Bros. at Lamar's Sunday night. It'll be the best show in months.) The other article is equally musical, if less positive: a sardonic review of the drab Cole Porter movie "De-Lovely." Feast away on the tuneful treats.

I have a nasty cold, have cancelled my appointments, and am going to lie upon my couch and watch the Olympics with a glass of orange juice. Just wanted you to know.

I love allusions. Especially when I love where they come from and who wrote them.

I've often remarked that orange juice must have been the nectar of the gods. There are few non-alcoholic beverages that satisfy me as much as a glass of oj does at 1 a.m. (for some reason, it always tastes significantly better anytime after midnight). Hope you feel better soon.

hmmm...i've heard coffee is better for the ill body--it dessicates the bugaboos; orange juice only makes them wax stronger...but you didn't take me up on my offer.

Tip 2: Also, "Conan: The B" is a magical cureall.
