(T)humped

Hump day is over! What a rainy day in New York City. My jeans, shirt, vest, and socks hanging from my bicycle are a testament to the extreme downpour I experienced walking through Central Park on my way home today. Damn that crosstown bus.

Post election day is a crazy time. And by that I mean crazy gooood. And Donald Rumsfeld retiring? Thank fucking god. And, Britney divorcing K-Fed? I didn’t realize how much I cared, but WOW I do. Sort of.

Guess what else? Saw Ruined Music and Bryan of Man in Gray on MTV today. That’s sort of a lie, I don’t have cable, but Rachael pointed it out to me and I watched on the internetzz. Got me thinking about the whole concept. It’s so true. I get so mad at good music, ruined. Speaking of MiG, I couldnt make it to their Knitting Factory show during CMJ. I owe Tina an email (are you reading this?) – and am surely coming to one of the upcoming shows in early December (see you there!)

I just got back from the opening night of the Margaret Mead Film & Video Festival at the Museum of Natural History. The premiere movie was this documentary “Doc” about Doc Humes , made by his daughter, with her sisters in attendance. Doc Humes was a big deal. And crazy, and brilliant, and I’ve got to go track down his books now. “Men Die” in particular. How had I never heard of this guy before ???

In work and radio related news, we’ve got a great Monsterland show up this week – Dave Deporis came by the studio, so be sure to listen in!

I’ve got a date with Celestial Seasonings and then it’s time for bed!
