I prefer whipped cream to marshmallows, but this is a nice cozy mix. I'm gonna light a fire when I get home.

This, again, is absolutely beautiful. Special props to your TFC, Mountain Goats, Nico, For Carnation, Low and Magnetic Fields picks. I'm really, really liking this series.

Thanks for the kind words, kids. Yeah, Chalet Lines is a bit bleak. I guess it's for those cold, grey, gloomy days of winter where it's drizzling, you're miserable and just want to stay under a comforter all day.

Beautiful. Makes me long for snow, which is in very short supply here in sunny San Diego.

Trust me, Moe, if you were in Pittsburgh right now, you would *not* be longing for snow. *sighs as he contemplates cleaning off his car after work*

Quality, sir!! As Atlanta prepares herself for an approaching ice storm (that's big stuff down here), I can't help but wish I had a copy of this tape in hand. Sweetness!!

Dig! I've always associated that particular Palace song with winter too. Looking good so far (the series that is).
