One benefit of working in the midst of St. Paul's warehouse district - Led Zeppelin music (& other great rock bands) floats through the windows. All day. Everyday.
An interesting way to look at genocide/discrimination. Thank you, MIA. If you like this video you may be interested in some of my past rants that can be seen here, here and here. Happy Wednesdayyyyyyyyy.
I cannot remember how I heard about Sheikh Imam, but I listened to this Egyptian singer/oud player a lot while in Egypt. Mostly just this song- it's beautiful!!
Whenever I'd go looking for his CD in Cairo, everyone would say, "Oh nononono sell Sheikh Imam." Finally, after weeks of searching one honest salesman said, "Sheikh Imam is great oud player, bad Egyptian. He talked bad about governements." Kids, that's governmental censorship. Thank goodness for youtube. Enjoy!
I just got home from seeing The Runaways with my friend Lindsay (who is much more rock-star than I), and now I'm daydreaming of wreaking havoc on ... anything really. But alas, mass destruction will have to wait because my Grandpa and Grandma are here for dinner. & anyway, I don't have any silver eye shadow.
