If you caught it, I'm sure that you will agree that it was absolutely wonderful. If you didn't catch it, I'm sure that you still agree after perusing the above list of songs.

Literary Addendums
The following were read:

"A sea turtle pawned diamond rings, and kept his clients in debt to their graves. This was in hopes of owning libraries full of bookshelves, but he never had time to read, so instead he was stuck with others' riches for which he had no use. The shelves he built for books sagged under the weight of gold treasure chests in his house, his giant shell. Finally they collapsed on his sinewy, tender body, crushing him without breaking his skin."
-A Life Aquatic original penned by yours truly.

And an excerpt from Pushkin's "The Bronze Horseman," which I can't find verbatim on the internet to copy and paste and which I do not have time to type out.

The wnyu archiver is still not fixed/replaced, so dozens of awesome live performances as well as this episode of the life aquatic will probably never make it to internet immortality for your eternal listening pleasures. Sorry! I recorded the second half, give or take, of my show though. Will it make it to the archives? who knows!

Until next time, old chaps!
