Well PopMatters’s Adam Williams started it with his feature last week, and I’m going to keep the dream alive. In the spirit of introspection, I asked myself the following questions and, without any cheating, accurately predicted his answers. Also, I answered the questions, but my answers were generally the same as his. [...]

Well, the United States is certainly a country, and I’ve now driven across a lot of it (with Alec). He was a little surprised by certain aspects of the Midwest — especially a very overweight woman in a Dennys in Effingham, IL, at 2AM, who was wearing a church softball league shirt proclaiming that [...]

Well, I mean, I’m kind of high-speed I think. Not really in a literal sense, since I drive a hippy girl car with only 90 horsepower, but there’s a sense in which some might consider me nimble and quick around proverbial candlesticks. (”Hit the road, Jack-be-nimble!”)
The itinerary:

Tequesta
Starbucks in Jupiter
Starbucks on Turnpike
Starbucks on Turnpike (again)
Starbucks [...]

My friend Cassie, who is in the market for an indie boy (above), likes Annie.  Today’s song is for her:

Well, you all probably can predict that I am not as big a fan of M.I.A. as almost everyone else. And, although I’m a big fan of Diplo, I don’t hate M.I.A. simply out of jealousy. Part of why I don’t like her is jealousy maybe, but mostly it’s that Arular was overhyped [...]

Well, I’m home, and I’ve been listening to Sage Francis’s excellent 2005 effort, A Healthy Distrust.
Here’s the second track, “Sea Lion” — featuring Saul Williams and Will Oldham and produced by Alias. It’s pretty money ($$$).

Well, in a few hours, I’ll be heading back to the U S of A. With a little luck, I’ll avail myself of several different forms of transportation flawlessly, and I’ll stop blogging and start cleaning my room. Also with a little luck, the United States will have gotten a lot cooler in the last [...]

I don’t usually link to my advertisers, but I saw that “Socrates Style Philosophy” was coming up as one of the Google ads (there seem to have been a lot of “philosophy” ads recently, and some of them have actually been interesting), so I took a look to see what it was all about. Here’s [...]

I’m still getting used to this new domain name and trying to process my recent revelation that Broken Social Scene’s “Lover’s Spit” is everywhere (and that it’s Broken Social Scene and not some random adult contemporary star who sings it), but I figured I’d better review the best concerts I saw in 2005. My concert-going [...]

Well, as you can see, I’ve switched to a new URL. Please set your bookmarks to CMondisplay.com. I had outgrown the old URL (largely because a lot of people mistook it for a spammer URL or didn’t understand that it was a URL), so that’s why I moved. That said, old links will [...]
