Hi there. Been busy. Will return soon. Happy 2008.

Recently, I realized something: Condos are the bottle service of urban planning. Nice to have, but not for nearly that much.

The Paper Thin Walls 2007 Mixtape is up now. My contribution was an appreciation of Black Moth Super Rainbow's "Rollerdisco," followed by some very brief Q&A with the band's leader.

Via SFJ@TNY: apparently, the author of my favorite 2007 book (not that I've read that many, or that most of them aren't about music) is apparently d/b/a the All-Seeing Eye Jr. over here. This ought to be fun.
