My New Friend

Once again, I’ve got a new blogfriend. He’s jimweed over at The House of Leaf and Lime. As usual, my new friend doesn’t actually know me, but that’s okay because sometimes unreciprocated—if that’s how it eventuates—friendship is best. I’m basically shy and wear thin and he’d only reject me in the end and I’d be frustrated. But I’ll tell you what, after spending several hours going through his entire archive Saturday afternoon, one thing is certain: jimweed's got a ton of top-notch tuneage, and I was smiling out loud at his pert(inent), pithy repartee. Below are links to my favorites. Thanks, jim, and keep up the great work. Oh, and btw, as a token of admiration and gratitude, instead of coding your blog name in the customary orange, I'm shattering Powerpopulist tradition and coding it in a special leaf-&-limepeel green I asked Blogger to mix up for me. jim, I know from spending so much time in da House yesterday, you are the kind of feller that might well burst into tears at such a gesture, so please, go right ahead.

Oh, in case you missed yesterday's post, the final two below are the next installments of 50 to 60 nice ones I found by digging further at the SXSW 2005 site. I'll be posting a couple per day for the next few weeks.
