TK Back on the Radio

Seriously. Best show on the radio. People still listen to the radio, right?

Fire Walk with Me

I recently watched Twin Peaks again. That show still holds up after all these years. Weird wild stuff in there. It's even more weird that I live so close to the supposed location of Twin Peaks.

Home Owner

Closed on my condo earlier today. I'm now a proud home owner! Pics later.

As a house warming gift to myself, I've been contemplating upgrading my stereo setup. I'm either going to upgrade the amp or the record player. I've currently got a NAD C320 BEE and a Music Hall MMF 2.1. I'm thinking of getting the Vincent SV-236MK or Music Hall MMF 5.1. Gonna cost a pretty penny though. The Vincent is about $2k and the MMF 5.1 is $1k. We'll see exactly how much I care about my audio setup...

Looking for some ambient music? Check out Sweden's Library Tapes.

Wendy and Lucy

Thumbs up. So good.
