did you see that Weller is some sort of ancient art and culture professor at a school in Syracuse? He's hoping to get his PhD at Columbia, Princeton, NYU, Yale, or UCLA.
Robocop is a professor?
Hey, what are the criteria for OSIS? I thought we had to see these people in their natural habitat, not on a stage.
Well, it's not like this is exactly a performative thing. The criteria are: Hillary is bored and doesn't have a post in mind immediately.
yup, doctor robo:

Sort of like Terry Jones being a hardcore medievalist, but much weirder due to greater fame.
Yes. I wish I had discovered this through a talking head appearance, and not through USA Today.
Uh, I saw Jeff Mangum walk by my house, and then my wife and I were walking our dogs behind him for a few blocks, does that count? Well, except that seeing JM doesn't exactly get me all excited, but, you know, the kids today seem to like him and all. And, he wasn't even doing anything weird. But, uh, maybe it'll cheer you up.
Also, I met Sting in Atlanta when I was in high school. Does that help?

I think lots of people would be excited about the Mangum thing. Out of town people, mostly. And it's very timely, with the album just being reissued and such.
I guess he was just visiting down there? I heard recently that he moved to NJ.
we saw him and J. Barnes in a record store in SF the day before Mind Zap, back in april. He looked pretty sweaty.
The album is only being reissued overseas. The domestic version has been, and is, available.
Does an album have to be unavailable in order to be reissued? Hmm. Why is Pitchfork reviewing it if it's just in England?
Cuz they get it for free and it's recieving a lot of hype to boot. And also probsably because Pitchfork can't stand to not have an opinion about something.
Anonymouse, you're completely wrong.
I have a theory--I think Hillary is the anonymous poster. Whenever she gets bored , she posts a dumb or offensive comment to rile everyone up.
I think if I were gonna do that, I'd at least make up a creative name. And use more expletives.
A clever name would be too obvious. And you/he cuss plenty. Nope, I'm convinced that "anonymous" is your cry for attention.
Oh, you mean in addition to having the blog in the first place?
Yeah, anytime I feel like one of the biggest self-centered assholes in the world for some of the stuff I post in the comments here and at TDJ, I think to myself, "Well, at least I don't actually have a blog."
Or something like that.

You do pretty well without one, old man.
Why have a blog if you can just post incessant, self-aggrandizing nonsense at everyone else's? That's what I always say!
--KM
These comments are your blog, KM. It's like people who quit smoking buying cigarettes.
I tried to strike-thru "smoking" in that last comment but it didn't work.
Well, nobody would bother visiting a blog that was all about how great I am, so it's easier to just piggyback on someone else's readers. I am a parasite of the blogging world.
Also, Hillary, why haven't you mentioned this special birthday?
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0240381/
I thought you two were soulmates or something?
--KM
1) Because I didn't know, but 2) We're not soulmates. That's me and Avril, and I forgot to mention her birthday a couple of days ago too. 21! Woo! Avril can go get wasted legally!
Anonymouse, you're completely wrong.
