Okay, so, I know I skipped out last week and all. At first it was an error, I was just to stuffed from Thanksgiving, and got wrapped up in shopping and forgot. Then, I just got super lazy. Sorry.

To be true, I’ve been doing the Friday mixtape for five years now, and it’s getting a bit old (or I am). I plan to continue through the end of this year, but might change some things up come 2011…

Tracklisting:
Ace Reporter – Untouched and Arrived
Ad Frank & The Fast Easy Women – Man On Fire
Blackbird Blackbird – Erasers
Boy & Bear – Mexican Mavis
Broken Records – A Leaving Song

Winter weather in Atlanta this weekend? The meteorologists at weather.com say it’ll be in the mid-30′s overnights this weekend. That’s winter to me. And just last week I was driving with the top down. Do you think that movie “The Day Before Tomorrow” had the right idea? If the world were to end, would you prefer it to go by over heating, or freezing? Enough rambling. Music:

Tracklisting:
Carol Bui – Mira: You’re Free With Me
Cee Lo Green – It’s OK
Fran Healy – Sing Me To Sleep featuring Neko Case
In Grenada – Distance And Temptation

So, Halloween is finally upon us. Time for little kids to dress up, knock on doors, and make their dentists’ day. Really. When I was a kid, I loved Halloween. I used to plan my costumes a month ahead, and spend night dreaming up bigger, better and more elaborate costumes. And even though Halloween is mostly for the kids, adults get to enjoy it too. This morning, I read this article about a guy who made his three year-old a custom RoboCop costume. While I’m sure the kid is gonna have a great Halloween, I know his dad had a great time making it, and will enjoy watching his son having fun in it even more. And, if you’re not too stuffy to admit you like it, adults can dress up too. If you do, please, use some creativity instead of going to your nearest costume shop and getting another “Sexy fill-in-the-blank” kit. k?

Happy Halloween! Below is an eclectic mix of track I plucked from the strosphere in quite a random fashion:

Tracklisting:
Broken Bells – The Ghost Inside
Fields – Skulls and Flesh and More
HorrorPops – Ghouls
Jeremy Messersmith – A Girl a Boy and a Graveyard
Michael Jackson – Thriller
Nicole Atkins – Vultures
Stevie Wonder – Superstition
Sufjan Stevens – They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbors!! They Have Come
The Growlers – Graveyard’s Full
Wolfmother – Witchcraft
