$25 to fill up my gas tank last night. The person before me spent almost $40.

I find it interesting that when given a deadline, people come to me the day of the deadline and explain how busy they are. Nevermind they have known about the deadline for three weeks and that everyone else had no problem complying.

I think Creep is the only Radiohead song I've ever heard.

Prius test drive has been moved to next Wednesday. "Vic" sounds like the stereotypical car salesman. Hilarity will surely ensue.

Should I be creeped out by this? My 'team' sent me a birthday card (as they are located 90 miles south). Everyone wrote in normal birthday sentiments (Happy Birthday, Have a Good Day, etc) except for my boss's boss, who wrote, and I quote,

"Brian,
You are the special one. That's for sure.
HER NAME"

Is she trying to be unique or does she, in all actuality, believe that I am the Messiah?

Any album/song recommendations?

Start with The Bends. Then move on to OK Computer. I don't know how into experimental/avant stuff you are, but Kid A, Amnesiac, and Hail to the Thief are all like that. They're still really good, though. The Bends and OK Computer are just far more rockin'. I don't have Pablo Honey, their first, which is the one that Creep is on, but I've heard some other songs off of it and they're all right. It's probably also worth investigating, for kicks. But The Bends and OK Computer will totally be your best friend. I didn't even get either of these albums until 1998. I don't know WTF I was thinking waiting that long!!!

My favorite Radiohead album after all this time is actually Hail to the Thief, which is their newest. But I still really, really like The Bends and OK Computer. Fave songs off of those: god, it's so hard to decide. I guess "Bulletproof" for a light mood and "My Iron Lung" for more rockin' off The Bends, and off OK: "No Surprises" and "The Tourist," but EVERYTHING ON BOTH OF THESE ALBUMS ROCKS SO HARD ok I am done now, man, Radiohead is really my favorite band, isn't it.

I just took a car trip to NYC two weekends ago with a friend who's as crazy about Radiohead as I am. Maybe crazier. We sang the whole way up and I nearly lost my voice. Then we met up with my friend who is even more crazy about them. We walked around on the streets of NYC singing a capella versions of various Radiohead songs as we headed off to our evening exploits. Fabulous moments!!!

"Fake Plastic Trees" by Radiohead is probably one of THE BEST songs ever written.
