Heavy Trash Hitting the Spot I discoverd this band tonight thanks to Mog’s great recommendation engine. I love me some rockabilly and Heavy Trash has a really unique take on it with equal parts rockabilly and garage rock.

I have no idea why the artwork is sideways but life goes on. Check it out if you want to hear me playing guitar in a past life. You can also find it on iTunes if you’d like.
The new Rolling Stones single is great [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPFGWVKXxm0]
Sweet, Delicious Bacon I came across Dan Benjamin’s recommendation for cooking bacon in the oven and have finally gotten around to trying it. It sparked my interest since it calls for starting with a cold oven. It turns that Dan is a smart man and the bacon was indeed extremely delicous. You can find the recipe at baconmethod.com and enjoy some yourself.[1] I can only assume he purchased this domain from hover.com ↩ ...

It’s the cold hard truth that we can’t hide and we can’t ignore. > > Meanwhile, Arnold Kim also points to the iFixYouri drop test and notes: The iPhone 5 survived all the falls until they finally threw the device screen down. They describe the device as the “most durable iPhone” they’ve seen. ...
Day one is my new favorite app. – Read on Path.
who knew one person could have so many ugly guitars?
The last 4 weeks have been a blur. I took on extra course in order to finish school at the end of this month. And by finish, I mean graduate!! My brain is tired all the time, and I’ve been working overtime on school, but its the first time I can feel the end being near. September=freedom. And hopefully a job.
A really good take on the state of the music business as it relates to Spotify, piracy, iTunes, and money from Derek Webb. I’ll go even further to say that I actually prefer illegal downloading over Spotify because when you get music illegally it’s at least implicit in the transaction that what you’re doing is potentially harmful to the artist. But with Spotify, your conscience is clear because you’re either enduring ads or paying to use the service and access the music. But from the blue-collar artist’s perspective, they’re not receiving any meaningful payment (there’s little discernible difference between $0.00029 and $0.00) and they are learning nothing about their fans, not to mention that music readily available on Spotify for little to no payment completely poaches the record sales upon which middle-class musicians are depending for survival (which is why I will withhold any new releases from Spotify in the future). ...
