Taco Tuesday

Yyyyyeah effects of no income already appearing. Props to Dino and the gang at Luke and Leroy for El Taco Loco keeping the kids well fed and blotto.

...so if folks haven't already noticed, we're making good on some of our promises from last week. First off, we're very proud to be featuring Mr. Davis T. Moss's photography on our summer splash pages. This is where Via dwells- enjoy the scenery folks.

Secondly, we've upped Jef the Chef's 2nd Via mix to Loose Tape. A Year in the Making is seriously that-- ixley's been sitting on this mix since forever and finally got some time in between making paella and yelling at our service provider to record the thing and throw it out there for the masses. Don't mind his write-up.. as we've hinted at before, ix is the quiet one who hasn't really figured out how to communicate outside programming language. Irregardlessly, dood talks with his hands pretty nice and has cooked up a real solid addition to the Loose Tape library. Peep stream download share.

Lacostey Daisy directed me towards a pretty disturbing feature in New York: Man-Hunting With the High-School Dream Girls. I encountered a number of these in the study I was on and.. yeah, it's definitely unsettling stuff.
