A ParisLemon Muxtape Update Rochester, I continue to love the online mixtape service, Muxtape, and so I've made another. One of the service's strengths is also a weakness: you can only have 12 songs at a time. In order to put up my new 12, I had to delete my old 12. I realize it's probably too much to ask for a full archive of previous iterations of a muxtape, but I do wish they would at least keep track of a previous song list or the like.

Adventures in Voting Rochester ticket broker, Well I did my civic duty this a.m. With effort. If I'd known it was going to be as much trouble, I would have shaved. There's a mayor's race in this burg.I'm not really from around here, so it matters less to me than national and state races. There have been two mayors since I've lived here. I've never noticed them doing much, but the polling process is important, and my co-worker was supporting one of the candidates, so I figured I'd go cast a ballot. OMFG! We thought we'd drop in and punch.

My TV Appearance, Annotated ticket brokers, So, yes, the segment on Fox 29 about Philadelphia bloggers - and by that, I mean me and Johnny Goodtimes - aired last night, and I've done a little guide to my favorite shot on last night's program.
