Burn Last Sunday

Songs listened to this afternoon that aren't by Budapest One or on Left of the Dial:
"Burn Last Sunday" by Superchunk
"Watery Hands" by Superchunk
"Every Single Instinct" by Superchunk
"Song for Marion Barry" by Superchunk
"Guiding Light" by Television

I picked up Punk Planet #46 and it gets a thumbs up from me. Maybe I should get around to buying a subscription from them. I have really enjoyed going through older issues and I hope they publish another collection of interviews like they did with We Owe You Nothing.

I still have yet to watch Student Bodies but I thought I should watch this first. I have it on tape somewhere in all these DVDs.

Summer weather is back: the sun is shining and today's high has reached 92. Average high for the week is between 88-92 degrees. Humidity is also back so, in the words of Charlie Brown: Good grief!

These eleven films (along with a couple of animated shows, a holiday special, and a couple of live action shows) continue to mean something, even when they come out to mixed reviews. The Star Wars saga itself is bigger than those reactions, and I’m happy to see the saga transcend generations. I’m only a few days removed from seeing The Rise of Skywalker for the first time. I thought it was a fantastic film in the Skywalker saga. And since I’m not a filmmaker or a producer, I’m not one to make a bold claim about how I would have done it better. Because Star...
