FMJRA 2.0: Who Made Who

— compiled by Wombat-socho Chilling in Chantilly for a few days before heading north for Balticon. So far the draft is going well for me. I have a solid outfield, starting rotation, and deadly bullpen. Don’t think the Senators are going to finish in the cellar this year. Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse delendam. […]

FMJRA 2.0: Toward Compliant Towers

— compiled by Wombat-socho I’ve been a fan of the British electronic musician yclept Conelrad for some time, and for a while I was downloading his Conelcast podcasts on the regular. I can’t say I was too surprised that he’s taking a break from Conelcast, but as you can see from the link to his […]

FMJRA 2.0: Deep Holy Water

— compiled by Wombat-socho SOTD is from Jason & The Scorchers’ most recent album, Halcyon Times, which is probably the best fusion of country and rock you’re going to hear. On a related topic, I picked up the eighth volume of Klaus Schulze’s La Vie Electronique, which is pretty good except for the four pieces […]

FMJRA 2.0: La Vie Secrete – Exercises Spirituelles

— compiled by Wombat-socho This business with Stephen Crowder vexes me greatly. I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt, but it seems pretty obvious to me that while he seems to have taken Colossians 3:18 to heart, he’s completely forgotten the following verse. I’m not sure I can in good conscience […]

FMJRA 2.0: A Utilitarian View Of The Monitor’s Fight

— compiled by Wombat-socho Good to be back in the ruts; getting used to the thin air again and not subsisting mostly on gas station food, even if Maverik is a cut above 7-11 and Speedway. It’s no Sheetz or Wawa, either, though I think it aspires to reach that level. I am continuing my […]

FMJRA 2.0: Crazy Nietsche – Der Freie Geist

FMJRA 2.0: So Let It Be Written, So Let It Be Done

— compiled by Wombat-socho Passover begins on Wednesday, so it seems appropriate to use Metallica’s Creeping Death as the SOTD. Also noteworthy: this mashup of the preceding with Megadeth and The Who. ABC is showing The Ten Commandments tonight, but since I don’t have cable I’m out of luck. Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse […]

FMJRA 2.0: Die Macht Der Bilder

— compiled by Wombat-socho Sorry about last week, loyal members of the Commentariat. Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse delendam.
