It's Not TV

After a few hit-or-miss episodes, the Sopranos are back to their badass selves and HBO Sunday is enjoying the hottest comeback since ethanol. We won't give away last night's plot to you Tivo'ers, but it did include Tony telling Paulie "You're doing a heck of a job there Brownie" and the terrifically depressing use our favorite Fred Neil song.

Fred Neil - "Dolphins" (MP3 Link Expired)

We're even sticking around for Big Love and noting the choice cuts. Last night's earworm:

Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - "Get Down Moses" (MP3 Link Expired)

We'll spare you the Real Time With Bill Maher theme.

That scene made me want to do heroin, and play with a stray dog.

Get Down Moses was my first song of the monday/week. The first of as many as cups of coffee my body can bear with-mind you, quite a lot-, I hope. Thank you :)

Meh, Sopranos has always been so-so in my opinion.

I can't be bothered with anything these days, but such is life. I don't care. So it goes. More or less nothing seems worth thinking about. I've just been hanging out waiting for something to happen, but that's how it is.
