I confess, I do not use a dishwasher, either. We have one, but we store mugs and Tupperware and whatnot in it. It\'s just the two of us, so we run out of dishes before it\'s full enough to actually run... So, yeah. Take that, modernity!

As for our wedding? We threw a bouquet but refused to do the garter thing (ick, indeed) or the Chicken Dance or the Hokey Pokey or any of that nonsense. We axed the \"til death do us part,\" too, because why jinx it up front?

I see that Sic and Vitriol are currently back ordered on cdbaby.com Will they be restocked soon or are these CDs sold out? You mentioned that you\\\'ll be getting more Coelacanth CDs, how about the others? Now that I have 2 of them I want to get the whole set

Mmm, I love the Brahms Requiem. But I haven\\\'t listened to it in ages... Thanks for reminding me to dig it out!

Speaking of squirrels and Sciurus Carolinensis:

I just bought Coelacanth and Interobang from CDBaby and, well, WOW!. I\\\'m impressed. I\\\'ve heard your music occasionally on the podcast but I was totally impressed and overwhelmed when I heard the compositions, the arrangements, and musicianship (especially through headphones) on these albums.

You mentioned that you\\\'ll be getting more Coelacanth CDs, how about the others? Now that I have 2 of them I want to get the whole set (with the included collectible George Hrab juice glasses).

Oh, One more thing, the \"fade out\" of the last podcast reminded me of conversations with my wife\'s parents when they were alive. They\'re from Finland and we\'d have conversations that flipped between English and Finnish just like you and your mom were switching between English and Ukrainian. I miss hearing that language in the family but it made me smile to remember them in that way.

Greg-

Thanks! All 5 albums will be available at CDBaby in a few days. We have re-ordered everything, and the stock will be up to date as soon as I ship stuff out. Yay. Stay tuned...

Do you think the run on Coelacanth is b/c it\\\'s now featured on Pandora(TM)? Or simply because it\\\'s funky, horn-y loveliness makes it one of your more accessible albums?

Sounds like a shned is what you get when a yenta marries a nebbish and has offspring.

Since you were in London recently, I\'ve give the proper pluralisation: \"Wonderful picture of the Georges Hrab.\"

Recipe request #1.

Always looking for a good recipe, though no one currently in my household other than me will eat Brussels Sprouts. (Well, perhaps the dog would, if they are glazed in bacon fat).

Also, pies in bedroom are fine. Makes perfect sense. It\\\'s a flat, clean surface that\\\'s not being used. My Italian grandma made gnocchi and dried them on the bed in smiliar fashion.

Heh, this brings back memories of 1989 when we learned of the Berlin Wall in class, just before it fell and suddenly all our history books were completely wrong.... anyone seen the film \\\'Good Bye Lenin!\\\'? www.imdb.com/title/tt0301357/
