All you gave

Wow. Thanks for opening up like that. I have to admit, I have never listened to any Nick Drake. I have a friend that always seems to catch the latest "trend" in music, but never really discerns between the good ones and the bad. He has insisted that I listen to some Drake. However, I hate dissapointment and I am stubborn to the point that when I am told, "oh, you have got to listen to this", I NEVER feel persuaded. On the other hand, yours is an inspiring story. I think I will seruptitiously listen to a cd, but never tell my friend and then if I like it, only admit it in about a year. That way I can claim that I don't remember him suggesting it. biggrin

The only hints I will give is that I am on the phone and Internet a lot, am officed with a view of...

sigh...

from the Canadian rumor mill:

the show was a hit in Canada and the rumor is that Global TV, the network which carried the show, is considering purchasing the rest of the thirteen episodes, to complete its run.
cheech:
I just saw today, while looking around Amazon, that the first seasons of Freaks and Geeks and The Gilmore Girls are both coming out soon on DVD.
It seems like respectable shows do eventually find their audience... it's just the audience has to pay...

from ain't it cool news:

"Well, turns out that rumor about Wonderfalls moving permanently to Thursdays was complete bullshit, to say the least.

Heres Wonderfalls' overseer Tim Minear with the news:

Well, not sure what to tell ya'll -- but we're cancelled. Effective at once. The cow creamer will be silent this Thursday and forever forward. Once we recover from the not-shock,...

Listening to "Come away with me" on hot days is great. It tends to lower the temperature a couple degrees. I guess that's where they coined the phrase cool jazz.
