This is floating around LJ and it nicely ties into the real purpose of this entry... so here goes another meaningless list!

This is all a very cheap and lazy hook to get you to listen to some new guilty pleasures of mine (I'd never make it as a DJ. Although if ~~an untrained chimp~~ DJ Spoony can then anyone can). Ladies and gentlemen, to your right you will see my Radio Blog, and it now contains three tracks by the wonderful Hayseed Dixie.

Just... go listen, okay?

Listening to: Hayseed Dixie "Fat Bottomed Girls"

Quote: "A Thaum is the basic unit of magical strength. It has been universally established as the amount of magic needed to create one small white pigeon or three normal sized billiard balls."
