We Are The Robot Nations

...or at least I will be when I get around to it. In the meantime, I post songs that I record and internet flotsam that passes my way.

I am in favour of coming home and banging a song out right away. Putting the song out is more important than fussing over it and making it perfect.

This post is a bit wordier for two reasons:

  1. The rhythm I’m playing is the Subway Shuffle, and if you want to learn it, go talk to Patrick.
  2. My uncle is Jim Crowe.

I don’t know what the best thing about this game is:

  1. that it’s Jezzball for the iPhone?
  2. that your character’s name is Dr. Awesome?
  3. that you perform surgery on your friends (from your contacts)?
  4. the ridiculously dramatic character poses?
  5. Dr. Awesome’s mustache?

There’s too much to love!

The internet == MAGIC. This explains everything! (Well, everything except why the word magic sounds wrong after they say it over and over and over again.)

Dear Mr. President-Elect,
It may surprise you to learn that among the issues that will occupy much of your time in the coming years is one you barely mentioned during the campaign: food.
