I Love Heavy Metal

The online course continues to go fairly well. I’ve covered 10 of 15 chapters since June 1. I seem to make a 90 on every quiz, make perfect scores on the discussions, and thus far scored a low B on the exam (the second exam is tonight, and I hope to do better). So it’s not quite like this.

BACS has now had five people resign in eight weeks.

I dreamed I was in a record (as in VINYL) store and picked up something for Toland that he’d wanted for a long time: A copy of Sweet Life by Varnaline featuring the LP-only bonus track called—ready for this?—“I Love Heavy Metal.”

Toland was ecstatic.

I also dreamed I was looking at a house, and inside were members of Bad Brains, arguing with HR because he was dumbfounded over not being in the latest publicity photos. “It’s because you didn’t show UP, HR!”

Okay, update:

House house house.

School school school.

Kids kids kids.

There you go.

Okay okay… we’re close to being ready to list, believe it or not. I meet an AC guy at home today over lunch so he can give our stuff a checkup.

We’re about done trying to talk ourselves into the Sycamore house. Just considering the scope of what we’d need to do to the bathrooms is tiring.

BUT… cousin Ronnie is going to have a good look at the place this weekend. I’d say that unless he reports to us that the very sight of the place made him do a backflip, we’re out of the running.

Thursday… hang in there.

Isn't it time for Anders Parker to release a rarities/outtakes record? He could put "I Love Heavy Metal" and the non-album stuff he did for the 45s on it, plus some of this monster group of songs he says he recorded for Tell It to the Dust that didn't make either Dust or The Wounded Astronaut.
