Coolest album cover ever?

Quite possibly, but what would you expect from the coolest musician ever (almost by definition)? The music is outstanding too, especially when Miles plays every note out of tune, just to send a very blue chill down your spine...

Buy this album!

Offspring's latest. Good music for a good cause.

Did not!!!

The growing inequality of death

Stunning, scary. Seems like it should be question #1 at any presidential debate...

At the risk of immodesty...

... I would say I am an excellent stone skipper. But not this good.

Master and Commander

I watched the movie again, having seen it in the theatre when it came out. A very fine entertainment by Peter Weir... it really takes you there, and captures some of the high-minded spirit of the novels, with the classical music and natural history. Russell Crowe is perfect. The plot moves along briskly and efficiently. The action scenes are chaotic and exciting. The mis-en-scène is undoubtedly less gritty and nasty than life must have been aboard those tall ships, but enough so to make it cinematically compelling. Your heart might just stir a little for old England during the corny Lord Nelson scene.

Yes, robots will take your job...

... just not next year... but someday. If you want to know what it feels like, just ask Roger Federer.
