Just a few things before I go:
a) Gina wants you to know about an opportunity to help hurricane-devastated libraries that is quite possibly more legit than the one I mentioned earlier.
b) Check out the amazing stop-motion skillz that ah used to turn my ordinary refrigerator into a MAGIC refrigerator! Better with sound.
c) My brother now has a blog, because he's cool like that. You should go look at it, and maybe comment some too.
d) I just completed my contribution to the twice-annual CD Mix Exchange, which is wrapping up at the end of this month. (Wanna join the next one? Leave contact info in comments on this blog before the end of June.) I was thinking of all the other people I wanted to give a copy to (i.e. you), and the list just got way out of hand, so I came up with an alternate solution: electronic distribution!
Files will be available for one week; let me know if you miss out and want some. All tracks are distributed in the spirit of promotion. I would recommend monetary investment in any of these bands that you find enjoyable (except maybe the Besties, who really suck. But in a cute way).
It's Maritime!

And! You can even download the Maritime Mix case insert with tracklist: maritime.doc (photo by yoannletroll). This file was designed to be printed in color on both sides of a single sheet of cardstock, but, you know, whatever works for you.
e) I think I've totally got M weeks covered here.

I am hurt and saddened that there are no Great Big Sea songs on your mix CD--not even "Boston and St. Johns" or "Excursion Around the Bay." But I will forgive you because you made me #1 on your list. Anyone who acknowledges that I am #1 deserves a little leeway.
And, yes, the Dewey Donation System is too legit to quit, as it were. This is their fourth or fifth annual book drive, so it's not just another Katrina-related scamathon.
nautical mixes are...

mine is also done and i'll drop it by your nearby home soon.
(i gave ah my new address)
Heh. Enjoy the trip.
I put up 45 pics of my own from a little trip I took over the last two weeks. Check out my blog for details.
Wow Lindsey, I must say this mix is marvelously good! Fun and clever. And you even threw in a few awesome instrumentals.
Swimmy swimmy.
Just wanted to say that I downloaded and enjoyed your mix. Thanks for the work of puttin' it together.
