my good friend spencer has introduced me to the most marvelous firefox plugin, called stumble upon. it’s one of those collaborative filter deals where you thumbs-up or down any site, and the good stuff theoretically floats to the top. only it’s built into a toolbar with ratings, tagging, and of course the all important ‘stumble’ button where you just get taken to some random based on what you like and don’t like. today’s stumbling has turned me toward this brilliant piece of word math.

lazy posting this week, but the streets last weekend were decent despite my never being able to understand a word of any live hip hop show’s lyrics, no matter what. lady sov was slightly ill and pissed that her monitors weren’t working so she had a short set. the mountain goats wednesday were awesome as usual, but he too was getting over an illness so he said he had to play an all-quiet-songs set or avoid damaging his voice. a little bit disappointing that two acts i’ve been looking forward to seeing for over a month both were circumstancially forced into giving B-grade performances (who am i kidding, the goats were still an A, just a different kind of A). hopefully the futureheads haven’t caught whatever singer-virus is going around too.
