Do I know anyone that could loan me a ton of blankets and bungies this week to assist in moving furniture via pick up truck? (read, crappy well padded blankets that can get dirty in the elements) If I do, can you please identify yourself?

Was I told about this band and just missed it?

I don't think its universally awesome, but there is a fair amount of awesome and in this one song they have a crunchy-cannon (you know that device ministry uses at the 4:30 mark in just one fix?). It's happy making.
