… Have you checked out Bliptones? For $1.99 apiece, you can download a whole slew of indie songs for your cell phone: The Decemberists, Death Cab (“ba, baaaaa, this is the sound of settling”), Sleater-Kinney, My Morning Jacket and a bunch more. I went with a DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist ringer.
… Does anyone have thoughts/opinions on the Andy Milonakis Show on MTV? I’m ashamed to say I laughed when I sat down and watched it last week.

i’m not a regular watcher of the andy milonakis show, but i do have to say that i had a hearty chuckle during his vignette with fat joe. “you sank my motherfuckin’ battleship!”
I thought it was kind of funny back when I didn’t know that Andy Milonakis is almost 30 years old. That shit is a lot funnier when you think he’s 15, that’s for sure.
It”s quite impressive.
