When we (FINALLY) got a turntable hooked up again last year, I found an original Small Change at the record shop around the corner and bought it instantly. Was reduced to shambles listening to it, surface noise and all.

If kids still take the SAT II Writing test, I hope they are still overusing the word lugubrious, and that they learned it through songs like "Lugubrious Moat" (or the lugubrious Lil Ugly Mane song).

He got drizzled on on a walk with the neighbor. Dealing with his coming home has wiped me the eff out. Jesus crap, what a pain in the ass.

Give Sean Altman 5 minutes, he could not only use lugubrious in a lyric, but he could give you a hook and a chorus to go with it. He's a walking human thesaurus.

Knocked it out of the park today @efd, but that's nothing new for you! Looking forward to listening to more Sumner. Get well everyone, and have the fun you do feel up for, even it's listening to the WFMU music medicine.

It's a tiny world. After I got to be friends w/Andrew I figured out our bands played a show together in 1989, but, to quote him, "I think we went to the pizza place and missed you guys."

I actually had to look up "lugubrious", since my spell-check didn't know.

In the process, of course, it "corrected" "chorus" to "course".
