hmm. Maybe if Tyson's has it, I'll pick it up.
Surly - the food? The Thai restaurant down the way is yummy.

Hmm..Does does this solve the riddle?
I was at Tyson's on Friday, the sign stated "12/22". Same with Fx on Saturday. (hardly any books remain, magazines 95% at Fx, btw. Oh, but still some porn and action figures and those silly bins for gift cards. TVs above posters for sale!)

Still have plenty of good ones at Tyson's Corner but getting there is a bitch. It took me 1.5 hours from Gaithersburg, MD (20 miles), and getting out was quite a bitch, too (even at 8 pm!)
Anyway, the pop/rock section is still 70%.
I got the following:
The Ark - State of the Ark
Walkmen - A Hundred Miles Off
The Rakes - Capture/Release
The Herms - Record Machine
Phoenix - It's Never Been Like That
The Elected - Sun, Sun, Sun
Be Your Own Pet - self-titled
Dr. Dog - Easy Beat
Smoosh - Free to Stay
Starlight Mints - Drowaton
Psapp - The Only Thing I Ever Wanted
The Charlatans UK - Simpatico
~$55

I went to Foggy Bottom last night. If you can spend the time digging there are still some deals to be had. My purchases, which came to about 15 bucks:
DVDs:
Low in Europe
The Mae Shi
CDs:
The Mae Shi
Kitestringing (a benefit/comp cd–tracks from Jenny Toomey, Big in Japan, Noam Chomsky, the Aislers Set…)
Osaka Popstar–several copies of this left, if anyone is interested.

Do they have anything good left that we actually might have heard of?
A track from Noam Chomsky (who I have heard of), that sounds like a real joy.

I don't know how old you are, but this is a reference to something else besides Catholicism, I assure you.
