- Because there is an administrative need to make the term feel extra-productive by cramming in extra meetings into the final days
- Because the weather is working its foul magic on me, making me sleepy and sniffly and easily distracted

tell it to me straight, reverend doctor. do you have a quick way of exporting the track listings, or did you manually copy them song titles?
December 2, 2008 at 5:21 PMeither way, i wonder if Robert Earl Keen Jr. knows you're holding it down for him with hi-profile name-drops in the Netroots.
kudos,

Manual copying. It gave me a great listen while I was waiting for office hours appointments to show up.
December 2, 2008 at 6:07 PMAnd since I do heart REK, it'd be alright with me if he just knew someone out there was digging him today (that's off a great disc, btw, of covers of Townes Van Zandt songs - one of the best tribute discs I've ever heard).
oh right, "Mr. Mudd and Mr. Gold" is the poker song... i missed that the first time around.
December 2, 2008 at 10:29 PMi seem to recall that REK double-billed at my undergrad university (l'university of the South) with Rodney Crowell, so i've always lumped 'em together in my head.
Heh. Funny. Some of these are great.
December 3, 2008 at 6:51 PMMakes me wonder if the ipod could replace the magic 8-ball for important divinatory stuff. hmm.
