Is it just me (and it very well could be) or does Morrissey and Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane look a lot alike?
By the way, when you search Google Images for “Roscoe P. Coltrane” page 12 is very interesting. On it, there are photos of Frank Sinatra, Shaq and Kobe, Bo Jackson, and a diagram of the female reproductive system. Ladies and Gentlemen… the internet!
Sloan Rocks!

Tuesday night four of us went to see Sloan at the Troubadour in LA. As usual, they put on a great show! I was telling someone at work about them and since they had never heard of them and sounded half-way interested, I decided to put together a CD of my favorite Sloan songs for them. If you know Sloan, I’m sure you’ll agree that this album rocks incredibly mucho a lot. If you don’t know Sloan, fire up your favorite music app and get to know them. Here’s a link to the songs they played for us last night.

Starting sometime in May Apple will offer a large portion of it’s iTunes music store catalog at higher quality and WITH NO DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT for an additional 30¢ per song. That’s right for $1.29 per song you can get a 256kbps AAC file (that would mean more than just iPods could play in the iTunes Music Store) with no strings attached! No news on a full album price but it will be interesting to see how they price’em. Read the full article here.
Something tells me that May will also bring the next Apple OS.
In other Apple news related to me — I ordered an Apple Airport Extreme last week which should arrive in the next few days. I’m anxious to play around with the speed of the 802.11n and not care about the range of our router ever again, plus utilize an apple interface for my router (both Monique’s new iMac and my new work MacBook Pro have 802.11n built in). I’ve not many complaints about the Netgear router I’ve had for years, but it’s losing steam lately and the control panel blows.
