Reading that made me think of the movie "Floundering" with James LeGros.

Mortensen played her husband, Jerome. They married on July 8, 1987. On January 28, 1988, Cervenka gave birth to her only child, Henry. Mortensen and Cervenka separated in 1992, and were divorced in 1997.

Maybe the 5.1 mix by Steven Wilson (who seems to never sleep), if you have the proper set-up (I don't). Or the other stuff on the second disc.

Over the years, I have developed deep friendships with so many of you, but I feel that, due to events in my personal life best not discussed here, the time has come for... nah, I can't do it. Just fucking around. Sorry, couldn't keep a straight face. What I *did* want to tell you all is that a combination of my abiding affection for you and some EPIC TYPOGRAPHICAL FAIL has pushed the release of my band's album back by 24 hours or so. Just got the proofs for the artwork back from Disc Makers, and there it was, in the middle of the "thanks" section: "femaniax". I just hope you appreciate the trouble I've taken for you. Especially with physical media being dead and all. Love on ya, Rex ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2009 21:48:06 -0700 From: Tom Clark Subject: Ambient NASA I've been posting this all over so why not here. "SomaFM celebrates NASA and space explorers everywhere with our new channel Mission Control: ambient electronica with live NASA audio. Currently featuring the 40 year anniversary Apollo 11 rebroadcast- exactly how it sounded back in 1969 (only now with a great soundtrack)." I think the astronauts are in rest period right now, but it's pretty awesome to have this channel on in the background and then all of a sudden hear the radio chatter come up. It's extremely cool. http://somafm.com - -tc p.s. Throw them some support cash if you can. ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V17 #196 ********************************
