According To Wikipedia

Poland has more villages, precincts, states, territories, or any other type of administratively delineated geography than any other place on Earth.  That’s not official or anything.  This is only through my two + months of random wiki sessions.  I have no hard numbers, except for tonight when just now, clicks 3,4 and 16 (out of 16 total clicks) were again for some town or province in Poland.  For this reason, Poland is becoming more fascinating to me.  And for the same reason, I’m getting fed up with it.

*Edit* Is Jimmy Wales Polish?  Cause I just spent the past 30min random’ing around, and I hit Poland wikis almost 20 times.  Which must be statistically bizarre right?

Changed My Mind On This Whole MJ Thing

I’ve decided that Michael Jackson didn’t fake his own death.  I’ve decided that the person who we think just died (or faked his death) wasn’t even Michael Jackson.  Rather, 10-15 years ago, the real MJ got someone to take his place.  He offered this guy $$$, told him to get surgery, etc.  We accepted that MJ was a surgery fanatic, so we’re not surprised when he gets another round and becomes more feline than human looking.  It’s easy for us to make that leap.  There was no standard by which to judge the visual validity of Michael Jackson since the mid 1990s.  Around 1997 we accepted that he might appear completely different from one appearance to the next.  Etc. etc. etc.  Dude wasn’t even the real MJ to begin with.  So the plot thickens.  Was this part of The Plan?  Or was this a rogue move by the fake MJ to get out of a deal that he was sick of?  I’ll take my answer off the air.

Really?

Let’s just get this straight…

You all really think this guy is dead?  He had legal problems up whatever was left of his wazoo.  He was being sued left and right.  He had promised to do a series of concerts for the first time in god knows how many years.  He probably couldn’t perform and didn’t want to tarnish the only decent part of his image left, his music.  And if ANYBODY would fake their own death…

And yet no one is putting this forward?  Have you all lost your minds?

Let's Make A Deal

Several years ago, I started trading in large portions of my CD collection for Amoeba credit.  I’d trade back and forth on $300 to $400 of credit at a time.  This was fine for year and half or so, but then I started listening to music less, and hauling large bags of CDs in became a chore.  On the last trip a few years ago, I traded everything but a few bags worth for cash.  On Monday, I’m taking those last remaining bags in.  I’m keeping 10 Cds or so, mostly because their cases are broken, somely because I went through a lot of trouble to get them and feel I shouldn’t give them up so easily.

Because I don’t want to get more CDs, trading for store credit doesn’t make sense for me.  Since they give you more credit than cash, I’d be willing to take store credit and sell it to someone for a fair price, so that everybody wins.  Or, if we’re friends, and you still shop there, and you’re nice to me and buy me lunch or we deal or something, then I’ll just give it to you.
