I was impressed with the amount of product such an incredibly small factory turns out. Not only that, but just operating five days a week -- the factory is closed on weekends. They go out of their way to sell you on the "Celestial Seasonings was started by hippies" story, and for all of the talk the operation still doesn't feel as corporate as I thought it would.
People had always told me about how hardcore the peppermint/spearmint room was -- the room where they keep all of the not yet packaged mint tea -- it's minty all right, but not to the eye-watering or hard-to-breathe level.
Z Communications just upgraded their site and it now includes glorious social networking features. So, well, here I am:
I just signed up on Pronetos, it is a new social networking community for academics and researchers. This is me:
In a few short years, the Vultures have grown from three scrappy, underage rock & roll acolytes into one of the leading lights of this city's garage-band community. The trio's sets have moved from charmingly shambolic to drum-tight, plying audiences with primal screams, twangy guitar runs and a soulful, rubbery backbeat. The Vultures keep the needle moving by touching on rockabilly, swamp rock and gritty blues with little nuggets of pop bliss thrown in for sweetening. What's more, bassist and singer/shrieker Trashley spreads the dirt-rock love on her radio show, Talkin' Trash, on KDHX (88.1 FM) from midnight till 2 a.m. on Tuesday nights, playing first-generation punk, blue-eyed soul and rockabilly into the wee small hours. The Vultures are a band whose mission is the music, and the trio aims to win converts by any means necessary.

I'm selling some stuff on ebay that's been in my dad's basement for years/decades and seemed like it might be valuable to someone.

I've had my eBay account since 2000. That's scary.

Ohh, and good to see Vox back up.
He was playing at the Larimer Lounge tonight. It was fun. He did the same kind if thing here in Denver that he did in New Orleans when he sang This Land is Your Land.
I got him to sign my Axis of Justice brochure.

I included my infamous review from Who's Who Among American High School Students, since I figured if I ever ran for office or was getting a top secret security clearance, it would come up anyway.
You're only as sick as your secrets.
