Things Smackie Thinks You Need to Know...

I somehow had forgotten that Stewart Copeland was from VA.

I'd go see this!

I had a tough time choosing between Louisiana and Mississippi as my favorite.

The vocals in GA were amazing, but then, you know….Kanye.

It is pretty sad that they thought there was a need to put "(The mama & the papas)" by her name.

Taylor 1, Apple 0.

Anton Newcombe took a earlier and different approach towards Apple…

So what are we thinking about the new Kacey?  My initial reaction is that it's a good album, it's just not one I think I'll be listening to as often as her previous one.  Seems to missing the spark it had.

The surviving members of NWA, minus Dre, reunited last night after 26 years at the Staples Center for the BET Experience show.

Smackie, you must go to this. Go, for the both of us, go. Suck in twice as much of the air to make up for the air I cannot be there to suck up. Buy a second ticket and leave the seat empty in my honor. When someone – inevitably – says "Welcome to the OC, bitch!" high-five the space above the empty chair, and know I am there with you in spirit, if not in person. And if they include Oliver in this thing, for some reason, tell me how excited he gets about the crudites. But gently, because I just don't know if I can stand it.

Just about any university where Academic Freedom reigns.  As long as it's about legitimate research, of course

Would the legal minutia been better suited for the Smackie thread?

I think he meant your rolling compendium of eats thread.  But, sure, here's fine too.

I know what he meant, Smackie. I was being sarcastic.

Yes,  I was very late to that party.  My bad.

^ one of the best pieces of stand-up, ever.  it's easy to get people to laugh.  it's much harder to get them to laugh and think.

I'm pretty happy with my LG G4, but this is a pretty good looking phone for the music nerd:
