E before I


Well, Emusic has signed up the Beggars Banquet group, which is a pretty freaking big deal for my eighties loving, indie-loving self. I know, I’m hardly a typical music consumer, but from where I sit now Emusic now definitely has a more interesting catalog, at a far lower cost (for all but the lightest shoppers), and with less-restricted files, than the iTunes music store. Let’s see if anyone notices.

Musical taste is a funny thing, but I think a random sampling of my friends and acquaintances would be more interested in Matador, 4AD, Too Pure, Fax, Moving Shadow, Mo’ Wax, Stax, Fantasy’s jazz catalog, Kindercore, Parasol, Ariwa, and the like than whatever the majors are pimping this week.

There once was this swami who lived above a delicatessen. Seems one day he decided to stop in downstairs for some fresh liver. Well, the owner of the deli was a bit of a cheap-skate, and decided to pick up a little extra change at his customer's expense. Turning quietly to the counterman, he whispered, "Weigh down upon the swami's liver!"
