And a handful of links:

• Tiny cameras + gigantic birds = cool videos.
• Depressing news out of NOLA is doubly depressing.
• Hidden Track gets the 97Phishtalgia ball rolling. You know we'll have something to say about it here at OTW. Look for something next weekish.
• BrooklynVegan is a great NYC music resource. It's gotten that much better with this awesome maps feature.
• The internet is great, except when it isn't. This really jibes with my general feelings on the matter.
• Basketball season couldn't come soon enough. The Orange are back on it. Young and hopefully exciting team this year, hopefully plenty to talk about this year.
  

Finally, another Conversation With/Education of LJ (i.e. what a 6 year old thinks about when you're driving to the grocery store)

LJ: If you go to jail, do you ever get out?
Dad: Sometimes.
LJ: Like if you get better... if you're a better listener?
Dad: Right, it's called rehabilitation.
LJ: So, like if you cut down a tree and you go to jail you might get out if you promise not to?
Dad: Well, you probably wouldn't go to jail for that.
LJ: Or smashed a car?
Dad: Well, if you did that and went to jail, you would get out. But if you killed someone, you probably wouldn't.
LJ: Oh. Like the man who killed Abraham Lincoln is still in jail.
Dad: Well, not any more, he's dead.
LJ: Yeah! Sometimes you go to jail for so long that you just die there, right?
Dad: Right, it's called a life sentence, cause you go there for the rest of your life.
LJ: I don't ever want to go to jail.
Dad: Me neither.
