Hopefully I'll get to record in higher quality in the near future.

OK she might play the saucepans well, but she doesn't do a great job of cleaning up! Look at that mess, worst dishwasher ever :)

However on the cool side, she did get to jam with Oscar in Sesame Street, so she's got that going for her

This reminds me of when I didn't want to wash dishes and purposely played with those to mess with my parents.

Rumour has it that "Sticky Wicket" is Ugly Nora's alter ego:

The African drum documentary was really cool, I'd never thought about how they were actually made. Thanks.

The Universe delegated that Ugly Nora would get a JV1080 nearly a quarter of a century after it came out. You make that sound so good!

This is one of two of my favorite pieces of yours. It could easily be the soundtrack of some inadvertently hilarious Reagan Era Evangelist Propaganda film. Or one of those 'specifically' mid-60's fall out films that would play on early Saturday morning TV in the late 90s (they were in poorly color corrected eastman color so there was this hazy quality while being super saturated... mostly due to being broadcasted from a VHS. Film _> VHS _> Basic Cable Broadcast).

Also, probably seems a bit much, but I almost hyperventilated laughing at this exchange (it's a different video from the one I posted above) :lol: :lol: :lol: It was nice of both of you to keep it positive!

On first impression I thought it was really Gen-Y'ish. Then I realized I just sounded old 'thinking' that. And then I realized people have been soliciting 'trades' and 'support' since the dawn of 'media'. Trading tapes, CDs, showing up to shows. This is just the latest incarnation.
