Ich heisse Super-Fantastique!
The "new" Franz Ferdinand disc [is it even out in the US yet?] contains lines like the one above and other such lyrical candy. I, for one, just love gratuitous German. I'm currently very much enjoying most of the FF tracks I've heard, although my consuming musical interest is still The Decemberists. My mission right now is to track down all things Meloy. I've gotten my hands on some stuff by Colin's former band, Tarkio, and I've probably tracked down all the other little loose things that are out there. (The last and latest.) My brother, who gave me the FF disc via his connections to the indie PR industry, thinks I am a "completist freak." What he may not fully appreciate is that Colin Meloy, a mere fellow feg, is now the leader of my new favorite band. It just intrigues me. Plus, I like the music.

Technical Issues: Yeah, Atom is here, for news feeds, thanks be to almighty Blogger, but I don't show up with anything to offer in NetNewsWire. It must be me who has the problem, like with the dead permalinks.
Aesthetic Issues: Lauran has made it known that she does not like the picture of me in the sidebar. She says I look mean, weird, and possibly deranged. Maybe. But imagine what her picture would look like if she had a blog of her own? I'd link to it right now if there was one.
