Discovered yesterday, during a school mini break with NPR and a cup of hot chocolate, Ry Cooder. The draw: Him singing “The Very Thing That Makes You Rich Makes Me Poor.” Had to learn more. All I can say is better late then never discovering him.
Check him singing “Vigilante Man.”

Went perusing YouTube for my fav Austin Lounge Lizards song, “Jesus Loves Me But He Can’t Stand You,” after a tele chat this eve. But, darn it, can’t find it by the Lizards. Still, you gotta love this Lizards tune “Too Big to Fail.” And, for grins, a rendition of “Jesus Loves…” with some strange visuals. (Come on. You know I don’t think he can’t stand you. He just likes me better…)
Enjoy. And remember who loves ya baby.

Got a Sharpie? Good, mark your calendar for Oct. 2, when Michael Moore’s newest doc, “Capitalism: A Love Story,” blasts into theaters. For the uninitiated, Moore took aim at Wall Street greed, lust and corruption, which catapulted us into our financial mess, for the making of this film. The Oct. 2 release date is one year and one day after the Senate voted to approve the Wall Street bailout plan.
