Neil Finn has a new album out, but I think it might only be an import at this point. So anyway, I justified paying for the import, and it's great! Lots of great players on it, including Mitchell Froom, Wendy Melvoin (who does a great Robert Fripp impression), and Sheryl Crow.
Rawk!

His last album "Try Whistling This" and the one before that "The Finn Brothers" are also worth picking up.
Actually, I can't think of anything of his that I really disliked. The Crowded House albums are great, of course, and although the Split Endz stuff can be a bit raw and unpolished, most of that is pretty damn good, too.

Gotta love dem Finn boys.
Tim Finn had a pretty decent CD recently, too, called "Say It Is So".

Which reminds me of driving around with you and Ralf and Mary, and that Crowded House song came on where Herr Finn hits a rather high note, and Mary said, "I'd date a guy who could sing that note."
So naturally we all tried to sing it on the next chorus.

Proven fact: If you go into 7-11, look confused, and they ask to help you... and you say "I'm looking for the PSSSHHHHHT stuff" while holding your hand in a position like you're spraying Redi-Whip, they'll know exactly what you want.

How hard is it to ask the person at 7-11 "Where is the Redi-Whip?" It takes more energy to gesticulate and ask for "Pffffffph", I think. Or am I wrong here, people?

Guys fighting does not turn me on at all. So what is it about girl fights that men find so appealling?
Is it the writhing bodies? The grunts and squeals? The pants and gasps?
Okay, I answered my own question.

Actually, it's not so much the fighting as it is the possibility that they might suddenly discover they're both extremely turned on, and then start kissing and petting each other.
Really, that's the only reason I watch women's boxing on Wide World of Sports any more.

Isn't it amazing how fascinated we are with a culture that by all accounts was so horrible?
I mean, a lot of people consider the Nazi uniforms to be quite snazzy. Also, a lot of the propaganda artwork is pretty interesting, too, overall.
Odd.

Well, first of all, I'm a germanophile.
Secondly, it was an extremely interesting era in European history. (Not only Germany, but Spain and Italy also had their own fascism goin' on.) People were starting to wake up from their slumber. Unfortunately, they woke up to Satan (and didn't recognize it). But the whole waking-up process, and the booming European culture/economy at the time just boggles my mind.
The strange thing is, I can TOTALLY see how people followed Hitler. When people are in dire need of "direction", they tend to play "Follow-the-Leader". Who knows. I'm sure one (or more) of us would have followed Hitler.
Another odd thought.

I don't think nearly as many people are as fascinated with the fascist regimes in Italy or Spain, though.
Was it just that the Nazis recruited better artists and wardrobe consultants?
