Donde Esta Hugh Janus? Ethylene? [More:]Here is Soledad Brothers - This Guitar Says I'm Sorry to flytrap them back.
Hugh posted earlier about work issues. Said he may be scarce for a short bit.

Fuck that. If that long drink of water can't prioritize I'm going to revoke his ghetto pass. Now, all join hands around the pentagon and chant them back.

Yeah, Hugh is totally womped by work. I miss him too, sweetie. Maybe if we get a Book Barn trip set up, he'll come back to us.

I'ma saving my pennies kiddo.
posted by Divine_Wino 02 November | 10:38
Can you save nickels & dimes too? Then maybe we can go in the depths of February or something. Do you have book-browsing gloves?
posted by dame 02 November | 10:43
My hands are so callused from toiling in the word mines that I might as well be wearing gloves.

(I have super soft, super low lint white gloves that I stole off this douche of a rare book dealer that I worked for, all handling 1st eds of Cards as Weapons by Ricky Jay so as not to get grease on them, man that dude was an ass.)

Yes I will save nickels and dimes as well.

Thanks for labeling the song with the artist. I'm downloading it right now and am all aquiver with anticipation.

It's just a little bissel. Here is a much fuller Soledad Brothers song. I so heartily endorse them.

Soledad Brothers - The Elucidator


And, Ico, because you have the good manners here is:

Mississippi John Hurt - Richland Women Blues

It was the MSJH, Divine_Wino. And the fact that half our systems are down right now (the half that I work on). I just can't keep away.

I need a beer.

Hey, anyone wanna learn something about Meiji-era Japanese propaganda?

Divine_Wino, this is awesome. Thanks for the tunes.

Heido Ho, Hugh!

Is there something going on here? I can't seem to post to the front page now.
posted by Hugh Janus 02 November | 11:57
I just tried and had no problem. Maybe there was a hiccup in the server or something.
posted by iconomy 02 November | 12:01
No, it gives me a "Patience, grasshopper! The time for posting will come again" message.

I have an idea, though; I'll try it out.
posted by Hugh Janus 02 November | 12:03
Nope, didn't work.

I'VE BEEN CANCELLED!
posted by Hugh Janus 02 November | 12:04
Oh, you probably tried to post immediately after a comment. I think you have to wait for a couple of minutes? I've never seen that message...cute ;)

Upon preview....just wait a few minutes...hehe.
posted by iconomy 02 November | 12:05
Hugh, posts that are over a certain length have to be okayed by a mod (safety measure thingy). So if you ever have the problem again, just email one of us.
posted by taz 02 November | 12:14
Oh, okay. But I can't email from work! Can I make a long post now? I promise it'll be interesting (at least to me)...
posted by Hugh Janus 02 November | 12:17
Is it the one you tried to post? Because that one is posted now. If you have another, let me know here, and I'll be watching for it. (You post it as usual, and then when I see it in the "back office", I'll okay it.)

And if it happens again while you're at work, just leave a note in comments somewhere asking someone to pass it through.
posted by taz 02 November | 12:22
Sweet! Thank you, taz.

When I say you're the best, it's not in reference to this particular moment -- it's a longstanding, continuous thing, you being the best. I'll risk the repetition: you're the best, taz.

*gives taz a big thank-you hug, looks over shoulder, sees boss looming, ducks, runs, hides*
posted by Hugh Janus 02 November | 12:35
*kisses Hugh behind boss's back, in the supply closet*
posted by taz 02 November | 12:57
*jealously paces outside supply closet, waiting turn to maul Hugh*

Or taz...
