Saturday nuclear-brain hellos, Rex and Fools?

OK if I just slump over in the corner here? Going to be a lot more pleasant than last week's listening, which had me, Kate, and all four pets huddled on the back stoop out of the cold rain, waiting for the insect poison to dry so we could go back inside. Fool's Paradise was our only way to tell the time!

Fortunately, we had no brows.

Stream is back, BTW.

"Put a bra in the window, Mother"?

Told this story already on MS's board, but it seems to bear repeating here:

In the NYC is going back to normal department: Kate and I went out to dinner last night (second time!) at a place we love and, duh, had not been to in 14 months. We sat outside, on the corner, in Italian WIlliamsburg. About halfway through, a couple walked by, and Kate pointed out that the woman was completely nude except for a shawl that was draped only in front of her. I verified when they walked back by. Just seemed to be going to the bodega for a bomber stark bummed and easy living.

Welcome back, NYC.

Butterman, I would have noticed a Fanwood address in the swag I packed the other day -- that's where you are, right?

FWIW, I think a lot of the swag that's been packed and mailed so far is the simpler stuff: a single T-shirt or two T-shirts or 1-2 T-shirts and one CD. At least that's what I've seen. I think the more complex swag packs are next on the list.
