Wilco Tonight!

Friday, September 19th, 2003

I don’t think I’ve been looking forward to a show as much as I am for Wilco tonight* at the beautiful Auditorium Theatre in Chicago…

Friday, September 19th, 2003

I cannot stress how cool http://www.lab360.com/listen/ is… I’m listening to “High Fidelity” as we speak and it’s kick-ass.

No More Zwan

Monday, September 15th, 2003

Zwan is officially no more…

Good Discussion on Computer Bags

Friday, September 12th, 2003

This post is really just a bookmark for me, but feel free to check it out if you’re interested…

I’ve been in the market for a new computer bag for sometime. I’ve been swaying towards a Timbuk2 “messenger-type” of bag, but there’s a pretty good discussion going on at stopdesign.com regarding computer bags…

“It’s even got a tape deck”

Friday, September 12th, 2003
