Hear what I’m hearing - if you dare

There’s a new service called Muxtape that lets you upload up to 12 mp3 files to create the 21st century version of a mixtape. And unless you’re really into the idea of holding a microphone up to the radio, it’ll generally have better audio quality.

I created my very own: my depressing music. Listen along to the torture I put myself through on a daily basis. Yes, it’s all one band, and yes the audio volume hasn’t been normalized (take it up with whoever puts out the CDs). But I know somebody who would have liked it, and listening to all of this reminds me of her.

An Open Letter to Patrick Leahy, Re: Michael Mukasey

Dear Senator Leahy,

There’s a simple answer to the problems you’re having with Michael Mukasey’s confirmation. If he won’t tell you whether or not he thinks waterboarding is torture, you’re going to have to waterboard him until he has an answer.  I’m guessing he’ll say yes.

Sincerely,

Jemal Cole

p.s. Here’s how to do it.

Some Good Advice

Alan Moore says:

“I suppose what I was doing was if I were to actually go around and imprison all the people that I wanted to mentally and spiritually set free, and subject them to torture for a couple of months, I’d probably get locked up, wouldn’t I? Nobody would understand that one.”

Really? Good to know. There goes my weekend.
