I know what you think.
It is better than you think.

Strange and very catchy little songs about very odd things. They Might Be Giants fans should check this out. For instance, I now know that a robot cat needs pancake power.

If anyone who knew Logan or knew of him hasn't seen it, here is the video from his memorial service.

I can't believe how much I dig this guy's work and that he lived nearish to me and that he's DEAD. That fucking BLOWS. I'ma pour out some Quik for Logan.

Wait ... he's dead?
Dammit.
Dammit.
Dammit.

I've been wanting to get back in touch with him. We communicated a lot in the mp3.com days. At the time we considered collaborating on something, and for the past few months I've been thinking about getting back in touch with him and maybe, well, attempting, or, at least, talking about, that again. Shit.

Well, I guess tonight'll be a Logan Whitehurst listening sorta night.

Actually, to be honest, I wanted to tell him how much of a musical inspiration he's been to me. The attempting to collaborate with him again thing, see, that was a lie. I mean, we e-mailed about it a bit in '99 and the first couple '00s. But over the past year, yeah, I wanted to tell him he inspired me quite a bit.

Sorry for lying.
Not sure why I did.

Not sure why I'm being honest now.

why are my tears so wet, so wet?
