Having a record player in the house has been the best. At our last place we had three broken turntables between the two of us. I had had the same one since I was eight and decided to toss it out when we moved. I missed records! Our new player sounds awesome. Years ago I bought a lot of records because they were cheap and also because I was stuffing the bra of my music collection. But now I’m grown up. So, kudos to you, Younger Kelly, for purchasing The Monkees’ “Headquarters.” It’s pretty good and I didn’t know it until now.

Other developments of note:
-The new Phoenix record is as good as everyone says.
-I have a tiny green tomato growing out back. It made my heart swell with pride. I created life! Take that, God! And mothers! And J.J. Abrams!
-“Drag Me to Hell” was so fun. I’m proud of you, Sam Raimi. There was a 10 month-old-baby in the theatre with us, no joke. He cried through a lot of it, but to be fair, he hadn’t seen “Evil Dead 2,” so really wasn’t able to appreciate where the humor was coming from.
-Richard is trying to get everyone to use “jack nugget” as the newest insult. Try it next time you drive 95 North and see how it works for you.

Jack nugget is not so effective, but neither is net blanket, honestly.

Jack nugget is not so effective, no, but run them together, as in JACKNUGGET, and you’ve got insult-god!

“stuffing the bra of my music collection”
I love that sentence
