I’ve been listening to Radio Paradise on www.shoutcase.com . It’s a strange, eclectic mix, but I like it. Occasionally I’ll listen to the Downtown Spy Channel when I’m playing pool. It’s got some good ambient beats interspersed with clips from James Bond movies. Good stuff. Another good site Chip told me about is Albino Black … Read More “” »
I was almost arrested as a terrorist this morning. I was at the airport in the waiting area outside the security area waiting for Laura’s flight to get in.
