I'm kind ...Man, you've been posting a bunch lately. I'm kind of "in the weeds" at the moment, with an Italian Renaissance test Monday. But I'm going to take a moment and read all these and comment soon.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, I got a new iPod touch (came free with my laptop!!) and I'm really excited to be starting over. And, at only 8GB, I can really whittle and create something consistent and wonderful out of it. I'm trying to think of filling it as an art or pathway of discourse in itself.<BR/><BR/>Basically that means downloading a lot of obscure jangly British stuff from 1986, apparently.<BR/><BR/>Also, I have a mixtape I made for myself in 1989. It has some hilarious stuff on it. I guess, for lack of experimental music in my rural life, I made some myself by varying the speed on my turntable. To this day, the song "Tapioca Tundra" by The Monkees played on 16 rpm (my parents had a weird old turntable) sounds eerily right to me still.<BR/><BR/>1989 is the Golden Year for me, too. I can't let go of it.Crescentiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16896755870883871674noreply@blogger.com
