I'm the lucky owner of a cold.  Yuck.  Screwed up my plans for going out tonight and trying some beer from a friend of a friend's new brewery.  Mmm...  New beer. 

But, in better news, I received a package from my friend q.p.e. It contained a copy of his new album, "Gentrifried", along with some other goodies. (You can find some samples for download at that link, too.)
