    My wife and a couple of her friends drove out to D.C. for the main one.  I haven't heard too many updates other than they met one of the chicks from Broad City

    My wife metro-ed in with her friend (we live close). She said there was an insane amount of people. Maybe more than they expected. At the some of the stations the people couldn't exit the station fast enough to keep up with incoming trains. Could have just be scuttlebutt, but she said because of crowd sizes there was talk of rerouting the march. However, people just started marching and that put an end to that. She also said people were leaving their signs piled up a the Trump hotel. There were more people out today than for the inauguration. Probably irks trump.

    Revhq must be 100. That's what they did with the Uniform Choice release. Why can't they put all of this info in one damn place?

    I think Revhq is 300. If you zoom in on that picture of the records they posted a week ago, it says on the label. Its kinda hard to make out but I'm pretty sure revhq is /300 and red is /500. 

     

    The Rev UC was 300, and the red & clear (?) were 100 from SL. 

     

    I tried to zoom in on the picture too, but couldn't make the sticker out.

     

    Snagged a blue.

    I opened this this on Christmas, but have been pretty lazy. Sorry for the delay in posting the picture. Here is what was inside:

    Tom Waits - Real Gone one I didn't have on vinyl and have always wanted to pick up. Thanks!

    Dave Eggers - Wild Things. I have the standard edition, but not the furry one. I think it is awesome, but my wife thinks it is creepy. 

    This is a care package comp - I love MBD and did not know this existed. 

    JD McPherson - Bossy 45. Rockabilly isn't my favorite genre, but I really do like this. Plus the Nick Lowe cover is good. 

    The Good Life flexi. I didn't have this. Thanks!

    Planet Express sticker is awesome. 

    The mixes are great. I love the case and stickers. 

    This SS package was awesome. Thanks santa! My best guess has to be @llamaface

     

    This was from me. In hindsight, i did not leave any clues, a faux pas on my part.  However, I am glad you enjoyed it. It was fun putting it together.  I also  picked up one of the MDB split 7"s, but then saw that you got the box set. If not, i can send it along. Also, check the half-title of Wild Things - it should be signed by Dave Eggers i believe. A furry book, nothing creepy about that. Real Gone is one of my favorite Tom Waits' records. A must for all. Agreed, a lot of newer rockabilly can be hit or miss, but the 1st JD McPherson record is great. Happy New Year and all the best to kith and kin!

    Guys, how about we pull this all together and have someone open a present every day from now until Christmas? 12 days of happy! Yay!

    Accepted.

     

    Here is the before pic, which we already established was graciously send by chkadea. This was out of control.

    The after....

    2016_VCSS_After_zps4t0vycxs.jpg

     

    Whores - Gold 12" - Gold/Purple Swirl --- I have heard good things about this record, but had not listened to before. It rules. I really dig it. I think it might be sold out at the moment. Thus, glad i am glad to have a copy. Thanks!

     

    UXO - S/T 12" - White --- This is the new band by Chris and and Steve from Unsane and Today is the Day, respectively.  It is also loud, abrasive and good.

     

    Coquettish - Total Pops Madness 7" - Tests Press --- This is from a japanese ska punk band. I was unfamiliar with them. Will have to give this some spins.

     

    Andes Peppermint Crunch Thins --- I love peppermint bark. I am crushing them as I type.

     

    The Emerald Mile --- It says the story is epic and looks intriguing. Next on my list.

     

    Star Wars Lego Wookie Gunship --- After typing this out I am going to put it together. I love me some star wars. I am actually listening to the Catalyst book (Rouge One Prequel) as i type. 

     

    Broomstick Strawberry Gunpowder Green Tea --- My wife was eyeing this up. She is a tea junkie. I hope to get a cup in soon.

     

    Sun art paper --- Looks fun. I hope to send some friends my sun burned bird.

     

    Ren & Stimpy comic --- Always a good time. Nothing beats the episode where Stimpy loses his fart.

     

    Camping Clothes Line --- This looks useful. I plan to try it out once we thaw out.

     

    Swedish Dish Cloth -- I do a lot of dishes. My wife does few. I will put this to good use.

     

    Moosey X-mas Ornaments --- Already on the tree.

     

    2 CD mixes --- Some sweet tunes on here: Bad Brains, Tom Waits, Murder by Death, Robert Johnson, Lera Lynn, Joy Division, etc.

     

    It goes without saying, chkadea did an awesome job. Thank you so much!! In appreciation here is another pic of the foster kitties.

    If season one was just setting up for season 2 and Ford's new narrative, I don't know if I can wait til 2018!!!

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    Ford can't be dead -- he must have made a host of himself to fake his death. 

     

    I suppose this depends on if they can get Anthony Hopkins back in 2018. As mentioned above, there was the Human Printer making someone when Teresa got killed. At the time, it looked like he was possibly making a Teresa impostor, but he could have been a Ford model.

     

    Samurai World, excellent. However, a Game of Thrones/Medieval World crossover would have been sweet. 

     

    I also dug MIB's grin.

     

    Delos has some polite police, always waiting for people to finish their sentences before shooting at them. Progress. 

     

    Baby Thor, where are you? 

  7. Is there other evidence besides finding an old picture that the William/Logan storyline takes place ~30 years ago? I cant remember, but maybe there were old logos when he went through orientation. So then William is likely the Man in Black?

     

    Ford looked younger in the Bernard creation scene - younger than the 1-5 y estimated above. I was wondering why nobody noticed that he has not aged or changed his clothing/glasses etc. on the assumption that  was much longer.

     

    Meave instituted some serious changes to her code. Does she have power over Ford's commands? Maybe if she was "created" by arnold, unlike Bernard. Regardless, there will be some slaughter before season's end.

     

    I am still not too sure of Ford's deal. He says he wants to "tell his stories" and has taken some drastic actions to stay in power. However, he has not seemed too invested in the storylines in general and has poo-pooed Arnold's park ethos. What's the big story he wants to tell? His motivation has to be more than a desire to remain in control over his creations. He doesn't buy arnold's idea that the hosts could reach some type of human conscience, which would be a beautiful thing. He seems to think that humans are imperfect and hosts are better off as they are. However, what was the point of adding the reveries in the 1st place? I think i will need to rewatch it from the beginning after the season ends.

     

     

     

  8. Revelation repressed Beyond's classic NYHC LP, No Longer at Ease, which was originally released on Combined Effort. This criminally underrated record rules and features an impressive line up:  Alan Cage (Burn, Quicksand), Tom Capone (BOLD, Quicksand), Vic Dicara (Inside Out) and Kevin Egan (1.6 Band).

    But really, I'm glad it got to you already! And your foster kitten is beyond adorable! The other two packages should be there any day as I did send them out at the same time as the one you already received. Wishing you a very happy thanksgiving (ours is now snow-covered) and that you find a bunch of happiness in the presents :)

    The two other packages arrived today. I will try and fail to hold out as long as possible.... Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy the snow. It must be weird that every time it snows more than 6" the storm doesn't get a name and life continues on unabated. 

  10. Package arrived today. I was going to wait to open it, but there was a message on the exterior stating i should open it ASAP because it was filled with perishable goodies. It did not lie, as there were many tasty treats, including delicious homemade apple cider caramels. The rest of the numerous gifts were individually wrapped. Thus, i think i will wait until at least December to open them. The exterior note also stated that this was package 3/3!? That seems crazy.

    Although i have not opened the gifts, i shall attempt to identify the generous sender.  Using my government spy training and multiple  clues: immaculate penmanship, northern motif and love of pizza, murder by death, and lil' bub..... I think it was chkadea in the UP with the USPS.

     

    Thank you so much.  Our foster bottle-baby kitty also thanks you.

    The likelihood of flipping the senate is greater than the house, but it's still a foot race. Most of the major new outlets have been a bit more critical than 538's predictions. From their stories Bayh was going to lose because he's now seen as a DC insider..... 

     

    Given this cycle i have been a bit weary* about making rock solid predictions.

     

    *meant wary, but i suppose weary might be apropos as well.
