    Argh! Another brutal page break, and this time I'm the victim!

    This is quite a funky lineup of releases to spotlight . . . "One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just doesn't belong."

    At least the page curcuimcisionists didn't snip you completely Tom, like they did Saleski last week.

    Seriously though, the good news is I think were getting closer here. This week I tried to write less, hoping to hit it better. Next week, I may try writing more again (assuming there's anything worth writing about of course). The magic total is apparently 700 words, but I've just never written that way (counting as I write).

    As for the lineup, hey I don't make the news...I just report it. ;.p

    I believe -- as the rule is written -- that you can only refer to Janet as Miss Jackson "if you're nasty"...

    Thems the rules.
