Should've Kept My Eyes Shut
So the Guardian UK is reporting that The Beautiful South have broken up due to "musical similarities." If you're not familiar with the band, you're missing some fine, twisted (but very catchy) music. Two of the members came from The Housemartins (a band that also spun off another member who became Fatboy Slim), which is probably another band lovers of catchy pop music should listen to (again, with the caveat that you not pay attention to the words if you're morose or suicidal).

Back Again
It's been a... difficult few months here, and so I've been keeping quiet. I'll see if I can't come up with something interesting to say or point to in the next couple of days. In the meantime, though, Brennan's 8th birthday is coming up, and he has surprised and pleased us by announcing that instead of gifts from his friends at his party, he'd like them to bring the equivalent in cash so that he can donate the money to the African Wildlife Foundation in order to adopt one or more animals.
