I know it's been forever and a day since I composed sumpin'. First, RFO decided to flip the script and get a new provider AND RFO and I made a collective decision to dump the dead weight and go back to the original dynamic duo.
 
So, I am going to do my darnedest to get back to the post a week. It is your job faithful readers to return to the fold and leave your comments. So, here goes.

I want to talk about Aquavit and my iPhone, in no particular order of importance. First, Aquavit. This stuff is all killer, no filler. It is a Scandinavian booze that tastes like spring and will knock your socks off. Particular to the Norwegian tradition is the occurrence of Linie Akvavits. This is where it gets cool, gimmick or no. The Aquavit is carried in oak casks on board ships crossing the equator ("Linie") twice before it is sold. While many experts claim that this tradition is little more than a gimmick, some argue that the moving seas and frequent temperature changes cause the spirit to extract more flavour from the casks. Nice. I think I felt the moving seas after about 4 shots. Maybe I was wasted - hard to say. Just buy some already, you won't be disappointed.

Second, is the most glorious new technology in my life - the iPhone. While I think the phone is cool and all, it's the fact that I have the Internets in my pocket that really makes me swoon. And it's a camera, a calculator, a notebook, an mp3 player and a clock. I can tell you that the temperature in Shanghai right now is 59. How you like them apples?
 
So, let's play some music, why don't we? Here is two tracks that will move your ass like Aquavit - here's M.I.A. doing 'Mango Pickle Down River' and 'Bitch' by Spank Rock.
