Hey! Ho! Let's Ho Ho Ho!
(Image stolen from here.)
Well, really feels like Christmas sneaked-up on me this year. One minute you're living your life then BOOM! Christmas Eve's here attempting to garotte you with piano wire.
Anyway, here's something festive in the spirit of the season, wishing you good cheer and domestic harmony. From their 1989 album, 'Brain Drain'. (Also available on the 'Hey Ho Let's Go Anthology' compilation, for Ramones beginners).

I hope you have a good one!

The missed opportunist
A highly conceptual Jacob's Creek advertisement. Ads are so sophisticated these days - and referencing minimalism too.

Doing it on TURBO
Presenting a shameless plug for my friends Mink Engine who have recently completed a massive production-cycle of highly-impressive videos and music. You can buy some tracks via their Juno page as the electronic download.
Here's a YouTube video of the clip to 'Jooga'.
And if you're in Melbourne, they are playing this Friday and Saturday with details on their site.

OS woes
I'm finding the latest Apple operating system Leopard as buggy as all-get out. For example, even the screengrabs are flaky - I had to take the above grab with a camera. Apple - fix some of these with an update, please!
As an interesting aside, in Dante's Inferno, the Leopard represents self indulgent sins, according to the commentary in the Penguin edition.

Sad news
This post is dedicated to Lou. We'll miss you.
Snowflake - Decoder Ring [3.4MB mp3 file]
Lou was friend of my wife from her school days who committed suicide after being diagnosed with Postnatal depression. We attended the funeral today, and I couldn't not post something about it and do my bit to draw attention to this illness. Lou's family requested donations to PANDA, the Post and Antenatal Depression Association.
