A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Good morning all. 'Meek's Cutoff' is a wonderful film. The copy I saw was in the old 4:3 ratio, was wondering if they released it that way. Hey T, any thoughts on Melody Gardot? Can't recall if you've ever played her. | |

Great new Niyaz song. I like these guys - ethereal dark Iranian traditional / classical (this song is also spiritual) mixed with electronics. They're playing at Drom in NY 7/22, outdoors in Atlantic City (!) Kennedy Plaza 7/25 and have other tour dates after that (listed here): http://www.niyazmusic.com/#!/tour-dates/ | |

Barred Plymouth Rock. They're beautiful. Does your coop have a door that closes securely at night? If not yeah, raccoons can be pretty good at getting at chickens. But if they're closed up they should be fine. | |

Trouble you need to capture that raccoon and shave his whole body. That'll slow down his charmer ways. | |

hola trouble. raccoons are enterprising little fellows. i had a chain with spring hooks on a metal garbage can with my bird seed (they would chew the bungee cords). the whole chain just went up and missing a few nights ago. i lost about 3 metal suet cake holders, too. can't find them anywhere. i have to bring my hummingbird feeder in now too because they climb my porch post and shimmy over to drink the sweet water. | |

Ah yes, Cecile. It has a dollar bill on the cover and is mainly blue. I saw her play here in toronto (before her first record came you) to an audience of about 10 people because I loved that version she did of the Hugh Hopper song and we talked to her about it.

Yes, it was a hoot to meet her because we thought her voice on the record was fantastic. At that time Robert Wyatt was my pen pal and I was enjoying anything that taught me anything about him. I wrote him a fan letter that was very sweetly artistic. He responded and we corresponded for a long while. Maybe a couple years. It was really fun. | |

still b/p:
The folks texting, or playing Words With Friends and Ninja Fruit while in a group that's gathered for some other purpose seem to put extra emphasis on their boredom or their indifference or their distraction. (Seen it in a group a lot in last couple of weeks.) | |

I will play games til the cows come home, but I don't do it in a group unless there's a break where everyone is kind of on their own. It's pretty rude. | |

Big Santigold fan. Found out she had to change the spelling as there was a conflict with one of the "Cash for gold" outfits that had the rights to the Sant"o"gold spelling. | |
