Patrick Fitzgerald - Safety Pin Stuck in My Heart

Joanna Newsom

Yes, 'The Good Life'.

I do so love my state.

Nebraska gets its name from a Native American (Oto) word meaning "flat water", after the Platte River that flows through the state.

Nebraska claims to have more miles of river than any other state.

Nebraskans are called "Cornhuskers."

Kool-Aid was created in 1927 by Edwin Perkins in the city of Hastings.

The world's largest train yard, Union Pacific's Bailey Yard, is located in North Platte.

The Vise-Grip was invented and is still manufactured in De Witt.

Arbor Day was founded by J. Sterling Morton. The National Arbor Day Foundation has its headquarters near his home in Nebraska City.

The swing in the Hebron, Nebraska city park at 5th and Jefferson streets is claimed to be the world's largest porch swing, long enough to fit 18 adults or 24 children.

Memorial Stadium on the campus of the University of Nebraska in Lincoln holds over 80,000 people. Making it larger than the third largest city in the state.

I'd like to see that.

I'm listening to some live cricket.

I used to think this thing was overrated
not anymore.

electric masada-at the mountains of madness

Hurrah, England 155-7 (31 overs) bt Pakistan 154-9 (50 overs) by three wickets. The five-game series finishes two apiece.

I'm listening to Pick of the Week on BBC Radio Four.

Up until when I posted that I never knew of Bailys Yard. I've been to North Platte plenty of times too.

It looks fascinating.

I'm seeing this, wow.

"If the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers were to play here, they'd have enough room for 2,800 football fields."

John Coltrane- Blue Train

you must etc etc

I'm listening to a great norwegian culture-treasure: Vømmøl Spellmannslag - Vømmølmusikken.

Who Do you Love - Bo Diddley.

For the past week or so almost I have listened to pretty much nothing but Bo Diddley, some Doo Wop, The Monks and Haino/Fushitsusha.

I love that tune:)

If the entire world listened to Bo Diddley on a daily basis,famine and aids would be easily wiped off in a day without getting any help from Bono.

I'm doing my bit!

Downbound train - Chuck Berry

Bo Diddley kicks ass too. He and Buddy Guy.

I'm listening to the best Pixies cover ever. Hanne Hukkelberg - Break My Body

Bark Psychosis-Hex

Coffee House Jazz

Now,Hayden!

Sorry, darling.

I've gone and forgetten my headphones so I have to listen to this wretched shite whilst doing homework.

What do you mean by coffee house jazz though?

Shitty jazz playing over the coffee house speakers. I have no idea what or who it is but it is most definitely terrible. I must be off to work now, though.

Later.

Bye bye.
