I have no idea what any of the following is supposed to mean, other than I have a real random taste in music. What's your musical horoscope? (Put your player on shuffle and write down the first 10 songs that come up.) 'Someday', The Strokes 'Mi...

world series insanity

2007-10-31T00:13:42Z

I'm still in recovery from the last several days of baseball (because of this and, more importantly, this). Although I wasn't in Boston to be able to celebrate the Sox' second series win in just four years (which does not make me a horrible human...
